Safe place to spend the night on the way to antigua guatemala, little noise from the trucks but we slept well in this place, it is free, there is a restaurant with typical food. If you stay under the tree in the dirt area you can sleep better.

Stayed here for one night with motorhome. Price is 12.000 CLP and we slept on a big grass area. We had a calm night. On day there are some nice hike tracks around the lake through wild nature.

Endroit très tranquille pour passer la nuit et si en plus vous êtes pilote de parapente comme moi c’est un bon endroit pour voler en soaring.

Nice place. Free. Tables, Electricity and cold showers available. Unfortunately during my stay it was extremely crowded and noise. Locals heard music on full volume until 4 am and at 6 am some Cars shows up and continuied. I guess it's really nice in off season, but avoid it for spending a night at weekend or in summer.

Nice large parking lot with free electric hookup and a free dumpster. Didn't use the water but they had that option. Next to a park which had grass area for my dog and playground stuff. Free to stay 1 night, donations are appreciated. The park has a restroom that was clean when I went in but the stalls had no doors- I was solo so it didn't matter but if it was busy then it may have been awkward. Typical road noises, nothing unusual or louder than normal. They have a fenced in dog park with poo bags but unfortunately people havent been responsible so it was not useable. Other than that this spot is perfect for a restful overnight stay! Thanks to the town of Dumas for providing this amenity!

Nice grassy and level parking. 75 Quetzales per night. Sometimes 100Q for big rigs!?! Shower is almost finished but unfortunately only cold. Fryendly staff.

really goodnplace to change oil and filter with a big rig, and they are super friendly and atentif. Also had the filter for our car Chevrolet Express chevy van! we recomend!

Easy to stop there before the border.50q for 2.Below the very noisy road with lots of trucks.Quieter between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. Swimming pools very cold, we didn't swim.

This place is a good chilling spot after some
desert dusty dispersed camping. Currently only open Friday, Saturday, Sunday but apparently it’s open daily in spring — (could be worth checking out Instagram for accurate hours or a DM).

We had an incredible time after 3 days of free dry camping in Anza-Borrego. It’s really sick here don’t want to blow it up too much but if you appreciate nice things and are down to spend a bit this is truly worth it.

$20 for a day pass gets you showers, restroom, hot tub, unheated pool, tennis courts (with rackets and balls to use at no additional cost), a great little library and non-alcoholic drinks to purchase. BYOB, but obviously not a party spot. Bring your own food as well.

Owners are extremely chill and accommodating. There is also two trailers to rent to sleep in but they book up in advance.

Definitely not cheaper than the library but good warm showers and a place to chill with no pressure to leave quickly rules. Lots of very cozy spots to sit and relax, inside or poolside. Towels provided as well.

Precioso lugar para descansar en medio de la naturaleza. Baño con ducha caliente. Los anfitriones, Marta y Evaristo, son muy acogedores. Imperdible el desayuno campestre en casa de los anfitriones! Además hay un hermoso sendero para caminar hasta el río.

The best espresso (2 $) we had since Italy. You will finde the small lovely coffeeshop on the mainfloor of the Boulvard Palace Hotel alongside some other small shops. Beside cakes and coffee, they sell also selfmade donuts, croissants and more. From time to time you will maby see Ali, the owner, greeting the hight society. It's a nice place just to sit down and observe whats going on around the mainstreet.

The owner of the place Mauricio was very friendly letting us boil water in the kitchen for mate.
we put our tent and was 10.000 clp per person very good price.
Hot shower, starlink internet( very fast!) and place to clean the dishes.

Nice and good café with excellent homemade cakes.
In addition to the well-known cakes, there are also exotic one like banana kiwi cake.

Lucy and Fernando are a very warm and you feel very comfortable in there café.

Nice place to sit inside or outside.

the gate for the road to get here was closed and locked. private property sign. I'm closing this pin.

some sour faced lady couldn't be bothered to get up from her desk to get our tickets. I had to get out and bring them to her. then had to open the gate myself. this whole fee thing feels like a raw deal.

there isn't a road on ioverlander or on offline Google maps branching off from this location due north that eventually meets up with the road that goes on the east side of Colorado, but this road is very similar to the lagunas route as far as the awesome scenery (but without the lagunas) and at least 10 times easier. we took the west route down and it took us at least 13 bone breaking, white knuckle, hours to get from 701 to the geysers. from the geysers back to 701 via this road was a little more than 5. it's the way that the tour guides go back to uyuni and there aren't any side roads so you don't have to worry about taking the right path. the bottom and the top 70km are fast washboard easily capable of cruising at least 60kmh while the section in the middle is more severe washboard but still cruising faster then I ever got on the west route. no high clearance required. if you have seen flamingos before then I don't think it's worth taking the other way if you don't want to.

campsite which seems abandoned. It was closed when we passed in January 2023. The next access to the lake was also closed. No possibility of parking near the lake.

camping qui parait abandonné. c’était fermé quand nous sommes passés en janvier 2023. l’accès suivant au lac était également fermé. aucune possibilité de stationner près du lac.

This place is a dream and well worth the drive up the canyon.

The multiple use palapa is well equipped with everything you need. Fresh cookies, fruits to make a smoothie, excellent coffee in the morning, WiFi…

Filtered Drinking water right from the tap and clean toilets. Campfire in the evening.

We could not do any hikes because of an injury but they must be excellent from what we heard.

Just prepared you are gonna stay longer as expected!

Clarence and Isabel are beautiful hosts.

Parked in the sand lot between the bathrooms and RV park. It worked for two nights in a row, but I think a little of that is because it's pretty dead right now. Fishermen come by for a few hours then leave. The bathrooms aren't the worst, you at least get your own room. There's a drinking fountain and lots of trash cans. Good luck!

Friendly asked some questions and watched inside, no problem

Free Campground. Lost Big Creek. Pit Toliets. Trash Cans. 7 mile drive down gravel/dirt road from main paved road.

We stayed one night at sight #8. It was right next to the creek and had a fire pit and picnic table. Once the sun went down there was a lot of people driving fast through the campground with loud exhaust and bright light bars. We decided to pack up and leave around 12am because we didn't feel comfortable. It's unfortunate because it was a very nice sight.

The mountain road to Medina is supposed to be closed (big road sign when arriving at Al Sudayrah) but finally possible with 4 wheel drive (I climbed it with a bicycle but saw few cars going). It looks like they are making another road not far, to avoid this flood-prone valley

Good car wash place with a ramp. Perfect for our car and also specialized in truck washing. Very friendly people. We paid 6 rial for full wash (engine, underbody and normal outside wash) & greasing the nipples.

Es un lugar muy seguro, tiene mucha iluminación y pudimos pernoctar sin problemas, habían unos cuantos autos estacionados ahí, 2 camiones y pudimos notar que pasaban algunos autos policias durante todo el tiempo, lo cual nos dio luz verde para quedarnos ahí, así como mucha seguridad. Recomiendo 100% como punto de parada en camino.

Good place to have a hot bath and warm up. Arrived at 7:30 pm and it was closed. First people and woman with key came at 8:30 am. 500 ARS entry fee.
