Check-Ins

We parked our car here the whole day but we kept on driving to peru in the evening. Just writing to let know that this was a safe and quiet neighborhood close to the river and cafes.

all as stated and also the list has prices in the area

This is barely a spot. More of a larger area off the road but barely enough room for one vehicle. Decided not to stay. There is a larger spot at the very end of the road but it’s still not the best. Both would do if you needed it

Dump is now $2 w/o purchase. Water is still free and cleaner than most household tap waters I've tested (see pic)

Comme mentionné dans la description précédente, beau site avec toilette sèche, petit parc, web wifi. Je n’ai pas vue de pancartes d’interdiction de passer la nuit.

Not a good place anymore. No RV parking and no camping signs have been installed :(

é um restaurante simples onde os proprietários moram em anexo. tem um terreno grande a frente dele, ótimo para estacionar, inclusive caminhões pelo tamanho. dormirmos uma noite: foi tranquila e silencioso, pois tem uma certa distância da rodovia. bom para uma noite. deixamos $10 soles de cortesia.

I had no internet here but closer to the highway worked

A Walmart like any other. A lot of people staying in this large parking lot from large RV’s to cars. Most to the left of the store (when looking at the store). Uneventful night.

a 2-2:30hr hike from the base, after the crossroad takes a left turn and there starts the escalation, not bad, the view is stunning. on escalation, you hike towards the volcano, on the the hike back, the view is the lake.

track is well signed.

I did in winter, there are 5-10cm snows, so be prepared.

Beautiful little bar and campsite right on the banks of the Missouri River. Has spots for cars and trailers and overlanders but probably not enough space for big rigs (maybe call ahead for that). Has live music on the weekends. Overall really nice spot. No restaurant but have food trucks that come on the weekends. I’ve never stayed over night but come here often and see campers here all the time. You can also google the place for more info.

Passamos a noite aqui e foi bem legal; fora o vento que parecia que ia virar o camper. Conseguimos Wi-Fi é banheiro.

Completely silent, lots of wild life. off from the main road. No signs. safe

Really Nice spot very safe, and right next to one of the most beatiful beaches of Costa Rica : playa conchal.
2000 colónes to park the car so very cheap.
During the day there is bbq( go to the stand of big mama) , pinas coladas available. I recommand it . It was great to stay there

Tried staying here. Was asked to leave at 10pm
This should be marked as closed.

Overnight parking with permit, just go to the guest services to get the permit

check the tool prices, and make sure they charge you right, they wanted to charge us in a class c as an "autobus" bus even though in all of Mexico they charge us as a "Camión" truck. the difference is 151 vs 148. Not much, but still. told them I'm paying as a truck and didn't pay until they charged me correctly

Great water. Spout is in the trees and excess runs down a small culvert into a stream. Take a right just before the bridge, in driveway of small cream colored metal building

Very sketchy "police" checkpoint going north (maybe south too).

Police cars have no indication of what agency they are. They immediately told me to pull for inspection. Never asked for my name, just where I'm going and where I came from.

Asked to open the hood which is the first time I've ever been asked to do so. Then they wanted us to come out of the vehicle while they inspect it, which is also the first time since I'm always there while they check.

Wouldn't identify what "police branch" they were when I asked. Instead just got the main person in charge, which showed me his id, then explained that they are an investigations unit, looking for drugs and guns.

Very sketchy! watch out, I don't think they are real cops specially since there was a military checkpoint not too far from here, so why another one right away.

Record everything! Stay safe!

Oh also at the end they didn't want to close my hood....

Excellent site!! Right now, on a Saturday early evening, we are the only campers here. It is still 93 degrees but there is some tree shade, waiting for the sun to lower. The road was fine in our 2wd 1500 Pro-master van , hard packed and dry. Some random stone-made fire rings. Hoping for a night sky filled with stars and parting coyotes in the distant.

Very clean, haven’t seen any make-shift ‘toilet’ areas yet. Pack it or bury it, people. TP is trash, too.

Absolutely untenable onslaught of mosquitos in summer, full clothing and headnet was not enough to suffice. Otherwise perfect oasis, but I can see why every single camper here was inside an RV. Keyword inside. I'm SUV camping and it's too hot to have the windows up, nearly unbearable to be outside. I ended up going up the dirt road that begins in the campground less than a mile and I have beautiful views and zero mosquitos. Tradeoff is zero trees, full exposure yet pretty views for a night stay. Happy I made the move.

water is here and works. I added photos as well.

Drove through but didn't stay, there were probably 5-6 campers about half we being lived in full time.

We wanted to stay at hatcher pass but it said no camping, so we drove back down here. Views are very nice and there are restrooms, fire rings, and picnic tables for campspots (big parking area). T-Mobile service here as well.

Was a wonderful stay - the only weird part is someone came by and asked for 20$ for the property owner… don’t know if he was legit

Awesome views from clearcut of mountains and forest. Super close to bike trails. Dead end road and super quiet.

Great hike to stretch out the legs. Nice board walk with info on the rain forest

$3.25/load. Not the cleanest. Only 2 dryers out of 6 are in working order.

Friendly staff, ATM and some machines out of order. Staff member gave me change. Expensive compared to other laundromats, $6 for a normal wash and $0.25 for 3 mins of drying. Roughly $8 a load.

Just as described! it was located along the side of the gas station building/convenience store.
