We had an amazing time at this property. We arrived minutes before rain so only had a shade and chairs for shelter for about 2 hours before we could get the rest of our gear across the footbridge. Did we mind? Heck no! Keeping dry during the storm, listening to The Pecos rage...all a good time. The area across the river is beautiful and peaceful. Yes, neighbors are close, but from the other side of the river, you'd almost never know. The main property is just as beautiful. My daughter loved swinging by the pond while we watched fish jump as well as a very cute mama duck and her babies. Our dog was exhausted by the second afternoon (not an easy pup to wear out) and put herself to bed. As the rest of the forest was closed, we mainly stayed at camp, but had a ton of fun. Ponchos (gas station in Pecos) is very good for breakfast burritos, probably everything. Words of advice: if you have small children please know you are right on the river. Same for dogs. Our pup was terrified of the bridge untill she wasn't, so a close eye (and tie out) are important. There are some pieces of old downed cattle fence that can be of concern. We happened to set camp right on top, but used cardboard pieces to cover and mark the parts we didn't want to trip on. Outhouse is, we'll, an outhouse. If you're not cool with a brief trek to poop, bring a camp toilet. We had no issues though. Overall, 2 adults, 2 dramatic teens, a crazy dog, 3 nights, 2 evenings with rain...one of the best 4th of July's ever. Thank you Sondra for letting us share you space. We will be back!
