Free dump station with rinse water. No potable water on-site. Well maintained.

Good size lot. Several other overnighters. A bit noisier than some CBs due to the highway having an overpass directly across from the parking lot which amplifies traffic noise.

Spigot, free water, you need a 25 feet hose, it's located on you left when you enter the parking near the big fish with all the plastic bottles.
Downside, there's very little pressure and you'll need to be patient it'll taje up to an hour to fill up your rig

Great campground with clean pit toilets, grills and covered areas! Only spent the night during a winter storm but it was easy to get to and convenient.

small pullout platform on the side of the road. Not the best of your trip, but the ground is level, and firm (rare enough in the last kms!). in plain view, but nobody uses the road from 6pm to 9am. the view is nice, if nothing compared to stunning glaciar views before. direct access to river but I would not try to drink it without a lifestraw or similar. we have a small camper (see pics) but I guess anything small enough to go through the last bridge can fit here. convenient if you have a tour on the next day, or wait for good weather to head back to Rio Puerto tranquilo.

note: the tourboat crew told us it is also OK to stay at the parking at the end of the road, but it is definitely less sexy than here. weak movistar on the parking though

Great Campground. 25 a night (7.99 registration fee), multiple toilets and showers. They sell wood on the property. 711 is up the road a half mile for any convenience store needs. You can walk to the beach from the campground or enjoy the Monarch Grove. Decently spaced campsites. I have stayed here multiple times and it's my favorite in the area. Pismo Preserve isn't too far of a drive either if you are looking for hiking/biking trails.

15,000 per night (in 1 month increase of 5000f cfa) not very frequentable, it looks more like a brothel than a camp, no wifi, for showers only pool shower available, wooded park, but for campers the places are in full sun, categorical refusal to take water (for 15,000 we were refused 10l of water)
Only the character is nice

Amazing lemon meringue pie !! Don't hesitate to stop here and try it. And the cosy terrace has a beautiful view to the Rio Baker. We paid 5'800$CL for two nice slides, including 10% tips.

1 March 2023: Argentina to Chile

Arrived at the Argentinian border post at about 13:20. Exiting Argentina took not even five minutes.

Arrived at the Chilean border post at about 13:35. Including the inspection we were there for around half an hour, mostly waiting in the queue as we were behind a passenger bus. We declared our vegetables, but they didn’t take them. Not sure if coming from Tierra del Fuego as opposed to mainland Argentina makes a difference here.

This campground is full of litter, but it’s sufficient for a night. Wind protection seemed decent.

Estacionamento na rua em frente à Igreja da Missão. O local é um pouco movimentado até umas 22h (dependendo do dia), pois há restaurantes ao redor, mas é super tranquilo para estacionar e passar a noite, seguro. Não tem ponto de luz ou água ou banheiro.

Perfect spot practically on the beach if you have 4x4 and can enter the sandy part. If not, you have to stay on the street, but you'll be just I front of the beach anyway. The beach is super long and wide, and we loved the town of Lo De Marcos. Full of cool little spots and happy gringos. There's a good surfing for the beginners on the left further point of the beach, you can rent a board for 300 pesos a day. We stayed here for 3 days and nobody has anything against it, everybody was super friendly. You can find a free bathroom on the main plaza provided by one of the expats living here. He also told us he has free showers if we need it. What's more, there is a free WIFI with a good signal on this square, it's called LDMpublic (the password is the same as the name).

Overall super cool experience!

Camping as margens do Rio Uruguay. Por estar muito próximo ao rio, no dia que hospedamos tinha bastante pernilongos. Recomendamos se previnir com repelente. Os banheiros estavam limpos, porém não tinha água quente. No verão pagamos AR$2000 por pessoa + AR$1000 do carro, o que achamos um pouco caro em relação aos demais campings dentro da Argentina. Um ponto positivo é a segurança com câmeras e administração aberta a noite toda e uma pessoa do lado externo vigiando o local.

Just thought that I would add that they have six overflow spots but are available on a first come first serve basis. we had no problem snagging a spot a few nights in a row by showing up before 9:00 a.m. No hookups in the overflow spots, but pit toilet and access to the nice hot showers and flush toilets in the main loop. A real steal at $15/night. Absolutely beautiful park!

Camp Spot mid-hill, perfect for cyclists tired from all the hills. Some old abandoned, roofless buildings here that we set our tent up in, providing some shelter from the wind and easy anchors for tarping. Small stream down the bank with decent water flow in March. Some highway noise but definitely died down over night and wasn't a bother. Felt safe and wasn't bothered by anyone.

Parked our Cruise America C25 here all day without any issues. You can walk along the paths in the park to St. Charles Avenue where you can hop on the street car (a day pass costs $3 and can be bought in the Le Pass app).

We left in the evening to go sleep at Boomtown Casino as we had done the previous nights, but I don't think there would be any issues spending the night here. Feels safe and quiet.

Did an emergency camp here, but can not recommend this place for tent campers. For Vans etc. it might be fine, two Copec trucks also stayed here overnight. But I didn't see good places to pitch a tent, however it is possible if necessary. Indeed access to the river at the end of the path.
