Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
There are no campsites in this town but with its status of being one of the Pueblos Magicos, this will mean others may be looking to visit and along with that, searching for a campsite.
At various places within Google, this is listed as a "Mobile Home Park". It is not. It is a regular but small parking lot. The owner resides at De La Libertad, house #9 around the corner from the lot. The lot is a corner lot (Del Santuario @ De La Libertad) right in the center area of the downtown. What is available here appears to be about enough room for maybe 6-8 rigs of under 24’ each.
Locating the owner, Bernado Lopez was a tedious but pleasant experience. He currently has the lot partitioned as simply a parking lot but he would be very receptive to allowing RVs there for overnight or extended camping. He quoted $100 pesos per night as his rate.
There are no facilities at all other than the fencing and gates around the property - no electric, no water, no sewer but he does have location, location, location while being only three blocks from the city center. There are two gates securing the lot which he locks each evening outside of his operating hours of 8AM-5PM. He speaks a little English, enough to be able to communicate if you will speak slowly and not use abnormal wording.
What he said was, he’d be happy to give any camper the key to one gate to drop at his door when you are leaving or he would share the combo to the other gate if you need to come in our out during his off-duty hours.

Note: If you cannot round up Bernado on the phone, stop by and ask one of the shop ladies who work next to his lot where he might be and they can usually find him.
