Here’s the review Jenn wrote on Campground Reviews:

Convenient to Black Canyon National Park

Firstly, I must give a shout-out to the wonderful lady in the front office who saved me from an error in dates. I’d accidentally booked the week before we were planning on being there. She called me up after we no-showed and asked if we were on our way. After discovering my error, she very helpfully rebooked us for the following week and didn’t even charge me the usual fee to do so. That’s what I call excellent customer service!

The park itself is your pretty standard KOA Journey. We had a nice, long pull-through with mature trees giving good shade all day. The downside to the nice, long pull-through site on the first row meant that everyone and their dog used the empty neighboring sites as a shortcut to the rest of the park. Our site was also not at all level; the automatic leveler gave up and I had to work hard to get them leveled manually. We camped at Montrose / Black Canyon Nat’l Park KOA Journey in a Motorhome.

We visited another national park while here, so added a sticker; the last for a month:

It wasn’t quite as windy as elsewhere, so we were able to use our window awnings for the first time in a while:

Breakfast for dinner! Griddle potatoes, bacon, and eggs:

Quite a nice-looking cabin; our site was behind this:
