Check-Ins

I wasn't able to find this place.

Big Grass Campsites with electricity, clean ablution at the foot of a spectacular mountain.

Great place to stay for the night. lots of food options, typical truck stop fare. Well lit, good service on Verizon, 4 bars. I asked induce and they were very friendly. Next to the I 5 but not too loud IMO.

Nice campsite. Bit close to main road, so lots of traffic noise.
Clean ablutions, fast Wifi, own braaipit and ducks. P140pppn. Relatively run down though.

The place is amazing, but it’s not petfriendly!

Highway 20 is among the the worst public highways we have driven once off pavement and in the middle section. Between Kilometer 51 and 83 the excellent pavement ends and the road is a continuous strip of rocky potholed dust. We averaged 6mph/10kmh for the dirt section. Three and a half hours in our two wheel drive heavy van. It’s not difficult or technical but plan to air down for comfort. There are restaurants at each end of the dirt section to rest and eat but in the middle there is nothing but national park forest. Not even any views to speak of as the trees close in the road. The peak is at 10,600 feet /3400 meters. Absolutely horrible road. San Agustin archeological park was great so I hope Popayan is.

The hotel was closed, in the shop nearby they told me that the owners weren’t there.

We stopped there yesterday but it seemed closed and not well maintained. Couldn't find anyone there so not sure if it is closed or not.

Dispersed NF camping along this road. Well spaced, fire ring, good AT&T. Easy access and relatively flat spots.

2-3 bars T-Mobile 5G here at the lower parking lot (deep sand 4x4). 30 Mbps down and 3 Mbps up!

Basic hostel but location is fantastic. Incredible views and very close to termales. Restaurant and little tienda onsite. Parking available.

Don't miss out on this place. Absolutely authentic experience of Argentinian atmosphere and delicious meat, really. I had a great night there, even on my own. Watch out with the parrillada, heard from other people that the portion for two is actually rather for three or four people, and I could see many people having trouble eating more than half of the meat (since you add a sidedish/guarnición)

Almost all the reviews seem to be from the owners pretending to be guests

Good stop after/before the border crossing from or to Tanzania. Parked in back entrance to the lodge next to the ablutions which is perfect. Supper in the restaurant. Bream snd chicken on the menu. Staff very friendly. Excellent overnighter after long day on the road.

main tap closed but red tap behind building works! 💧

Basic hotel - no frills - friendly English speaking manager - he gets you dinner if needed. Breakfast included - secure parking for bikes. WIFI.
I paid $35/night. Works for a stopover.

An easily accessible RV suit suitable for rigs of all types and sizes. Friendly welcome and quick to respond to internet enquiries.

This place is permanently closed.

Beautiful and peaceful state campground.

Although many do it, per the Mount Saint helens Institute, overnight camping is not allowed at this location. Your mileage may vary with enforcement.

This place is absolutely amazing. Online, they only allow 2 nights minimum reservation. We went off season and wanted to stay for just one night. They accepted our one night stay since they were plenty of free spots.
There are beaches and a beautiful lake in which you can swim. Dogs are allowed.
$55 for full hookups/night.

Kingston Campground
US Forest Service ( Gila National Forest) Along Route 152. Two sites, on small creek.

seasonal closed. no sign when it will be open again

North River Dispersed 1 USFS on North River Forest Service Road. Dirt Road access that any vehicle should be able to drive on. Short trail to river. Multiple fire rings, could accomodate 4 or 5 vehicle. Tight turns to get in this site but I made it in a 20' van. Nothing larger is suitable. Many dispersed sites along this road.

Climbing up you might think you don’t want Aguas Termales but a cold shower, but as usual in the Andes, once the sun’s gone these hot springs are the best: 5 soles for your private bathroom!
There was a landslide / rockfall behind the house where people used to camp, so they let you sleep inside now.
No WiFi available anymore, but great 4G connection with Claro.

returning here , tonight is even more magical. crickets , birds ...

I was thinking that being a saturday many more would be here but it's just us

Shaded spot with a small creek behind. Close to the road but cars only went by occasionally. Was quiet all night.

Super nice clean showers at this truck stop for 13$. A couple can share one. Also there is laundry, but not sure about the price. Convenience shop, and “on the go” items for sale catered to truck drivers. Very neat.

They no longer fill propane. Checked in 4/12

we came her late in the afternoon arround 5pm we ask if we can park for the night. after a phonecall and talking about our truck they said 10 dollar per person. we are with 4 so $40, kids age 5 and 7 same price. we left.

100 m further on there is another one, much nicer in my opinion. they first asked $100 then I said $10 she immediately dropped to $50 we left. crazy prices Since the time was right, we found a spot along the road not far from there. Not ideal, but ideal enough for the border crossing tomorrow
