Check-Ins

Aluminum, plastic, glass recycling just in front of the main entrance to the visitor center.

The only place in the park we found that accepts glass.

Asked if I could camp and was told no. Not real friendly people. Left and headed further south….

Nice campsite at the river. Clean toalett and hot shower. Ask the police, in the blue building, for wifi. The Campsite is for free and the people in the town is friendly

We were asked to pull over for a police checkpoint. They asked for our license and title for our car. They claimed that our lights were illegal (we have a few extra lights mounted on our truck). They said we were going to have to pay a fine and they threatened to keep my drivers license. We knew they were trying to get us to pay a bribe so we just said, “That’s fine. Take the license and give us the ticket”. They kept repeating their threat to keep the license. They even said “Aren’t you too busy to deal with this? When do you leave Nicaragua?” but we just kept saying “That’s fine. We have many weeks in the country. You can give us a ticket”. Eventually, after about 5 minutes of this back and forth, they gave us back the license and let us leave.

Do not pay any bribes to these crooked cops!! They are bluffing!

I enjoyed exploring the historically accurate fort, barn, living areas, and lifestyle of this fort, which was founded in 1867. Enjoyable for adults and the school children I saw visiting.
Volunteers from The Church of Later Day Saints provide free tours and a 14-minute, professionally made movie about the fort’s beginning if desired. There is no selling of anything and it’s open to all.
Entry and parking are also free (no overnight parking). Space is available for all-size rigs or cars. This site is a very short distance from I-15 and I-70. An excellent break in my drive back north this spring.

5 dollar entry fee, once in, you can fill up with potable water without having a campsite

This spot has no parking signs all over it...like 50 of em. Don't even bother. It's closed for sure. The other spots down the highway are still open though. I just parked down toward the end and there are dopeheads everywhere.

This bridge is limites to 2,70m you have to take the bridge Enrique Santos instead south of here.

Parking area probably not suitable for big rigs because of the rough entrance. Stayed two nights here. No "no" signs. Oregon coast trail access as well! One bar of spotty Verizon.

Just to update the review! We didn’t stop, just passed by, but it seamed like a great option to rest and to spend the night!

Large lot. Sign still up that says no RV overnight but one arrived last night and is still here this morning. Quiet

Nice spot but very long steep drive (approx. 4 km of very steep) to get there. Clean porta potty. Thanks for offering space for us!

Super place. Great ambience and an excellent wine selection. Noelia gives very good advice and makes suitable recommendations. You can either buy a whole bottle or order by the glass, each costing 1000 ARS. Open Monday to Saturday 2pm - 10pm. We love this bar.

I think the comment on 15/04/23 has got mixed up with somewhere else. This is a level hard surface carpark, opposite Walmart that is now permanently closed since March 2023, there is 24 hour security on site. The performing Arts centre is temporarily closed. The carpark also borders the Highland Community Swimming pool, 3$ for an adult swim (check hours) toilets and hot showers. We stayed 3 nights with no problem. There is a big homeless population in Albuquerque, however we only saw 3 people during the night who walked through without disturbing us.

Lot of quiet and nice spots on the shoreline >> this one was our favorite. Has small palms and (from now on) trash bag on site (:

Large pullout/dirt lot next to a creek with a couple trails leading into the woods. Large enough clearing for good solar and Starlink. One bar ATT, no T-Mobile or Google Fi.

Well stocked tienda with some vegetables, pastas, canned food, snacks, etc. Even sells a little bit of hardware. Open from early in the morning till noon.

Actually a co-op and not husky. Water spigot near front door. Very friendly. Buy gas while you are there as a token of appreciation.

It's a cozy house run by its owner, a family place. Ideal for travelers who want a quiet and comfortable place nearby the new airport and close to Teotihuacan. Whatsapp: +525611608803

Nice hotel. 70,000 for two people with private bath. Hot water. Bicycles stayed downstairs in back room while we got a room on the 2nd floor. WIFI ok.

The Hotel Royal Class is next door. I checked them out and the man was extremely rude. It was cheaper but I would never stay in a place run by a rude guy. I’ve been in Colombia almost 3 months and he was by far the rudest person I came across in 3 months of cycle travel.

Amazing spot to stay . Great scenery, beautiful lake ( cold ) , nice sites right up against the lake

Nice provincial park . Good privacy on most sites , boat launch, pit toilets, water , sewer dump

We loved this spot, smells like a farm but the most beautiful sunset and interesting history. Warning however! We noticed a pretty big gouge out of one of our tires the next day and had to have it replaced. Could have happened anywhere but suspect it was some sharp obsidian on the ground here.

Beware of seasonal closures - attempted on 5/18/23 but gate closed appx 1.5-2 miles prior to spot with sign posted stating ‘road not open yet’ without any information when reopening.

Cracker Barrel shares a lot with some businesses and a hotel but it’s a huge lot. Parked near the back by an overgrown field.

This place doesn't exist anymore. Closed and forbidden to enter.

The place is locked off season. There's only a pullout from the main road where you could park. But definitely not a place to spend the night so exposed and close to the road. Horrible!

Unfortunately closed for the season from 02.05. on.

Very nice showers. Hot water, lot of pressure, no time limit. And best of all, only $1. 10 cabins on men's locker room. Bonus: free wifi and big parking lot.

There are several campgrounds near the lake, but this location is one of my favorites because it is dispersed camping and sites are spread out. Class B vans may not be able to make it down close to the water as the sand and gravel is soft and loose. I recommend heavier 2 wheel and front wheel drive vehicles stay farther to the top of the hill. Four by fours won't have any problem going farther down. Also, stay on the well marked roads and paths. There are undetonated explosives everywhere and signs warn of this. Walker Lake is incredibly beautiful, although it is sad to see the water has receded greatly since my last visit a few years ago. If you love pristine scenery and a mostly quiet location, I highly recommend this primitive campground. Highway 95 noise can be heard in the background, but it's not too bad, calms down at night after dark. Bring everything you need including plenty of water. This is a carry in / carry out campground. As stated in other reviews, it gets really windy here! Stargazing at this location is absolutely incredible!
