  • Campground reviews are back, baby! We return by checking out Chisos Basin Campground at Big Bend National Park in West Texas. Few campgrounds are as surrounded by such natural beauty as this campground - perfect for tent campers!
    Chisos Basin Campground provides visitors of Big Bend National Park a place to place to call home in the great outdoors. Nestled by the Chisos Mountains with views of Casa Grande and Emory Peak are 60 campsites offering different setups primarily for tent campers and those with short RVs.
    Sites 1-18 are the only ones that allow generators and feature lovely stone pavilions with a covered concrete picnic table and grill.
    Sites 19-60 do not allow generators. Some sites feature metal pavillions over picnic tables and some do not. Stand-up grills and fire rings also vary.
    There is one ADA campsite - Site 37 - that has an accessible grill and picnic table, as well as paved access to the restroom facility (also ADA compliant), and a water spigot.
    Reservations are required to camp.
    Trailers longer than 20 feet and RVs longer than 24 feet are not allowed as the roads within the campground are narrow with no sizeable driveways for recreational vehicles.
    There is a dump station. Restrooms do not have showers.
    Wood and ground fires are not allowed. Above ground charcoal fires and liquid-fuel stoves are allowed.

    I’ve been to Big Bend NP twice and fell in love with it! It is such a special place. I think it was its raw primitiveness and undisturbed landscape that got me. I felt like I was looking at it through the eyes of a pioneer over 100+ yrs ago. We stayed in Fort Davis one time and at the hotel within the Basin the 2nd time. The Window is amazing, isn’t it?! The natural fault running through the Basin creating the Window for beautiful westward sunsets. We took a trail ride down to the Window at sunset that was amazing. We went to Boquillas canyon and crossed the Ric in canoes pulled by Mexicans across the river and then rode burros into town. It was an experience!

      Yeaaaaah.... bears seem like something that comes with that area unfortunately. Thankfully, rangers and park staff seem vigilant about keeping an eye out and closing things to protect visitors. 👍

    This could be my fave CG: no fires and no generators, plus river and rocks.

    Thanks for the video! We will be staying at Chisos Basin Campground in December for a Bronco event. Looking forward to it! I just hope there is a warm spell in December because I hear it can get cold there that time of year.
