About West Campground
Natural Features and SceneryThe campground sits on a broad **high-desert grassland/shrubland** plateau with very sandy soil and sparse natural vegetation.[3] There are essentially **no natural trees** in the surrounding landscape; only a few small planted trees are found in some campsites for minimal shade.[3] Campers describe the area as initially looking barren, but once there, they appreciate the **wide-open views across miles of gently rolling desert** with big skies and dramatic sunsets.[3][2] One TripAdvisor camper notes the campground sits in a slight **depression with the best views toward the west/southwest**, which can make for scenic sunset and evening light.[5] Wind can be a factor on this open plateau, and the sandy, hard ground can make staking tents challenging.[2][3]

Good to know
Common complaints• **Traffic and train noise**: Multiple reviewers note constant background noise from nearby Interstate 40 and the adjacent railroad line, including truck hum and train horns at most hours.[2][3]
• **Lack of shade / barren feel**: Several sources describe the campground as **barren**, with almost no trees and minimal visual variety, which may disappoint those expecting forests or red-rock canyons.[2][3]
• **Winter water shutoff**: Campers mention that **site water is turned off during winter**, requiring use of onboard tanks or central spigots.[1]
• **Hard, sandy ground and wind**: Tent campers report **difficulty staking tents** due to very hard, sandy soil and needing extra effort to secure tents in wind.[2][3]
• **Burrs for pets**: A TripAdvisor reviewer reports **burrs in the grass that were rough on dogs**, making walks less pleasant.[5]
• **Sparse trash facilities**: One camper noted a lack of trash cans around the loops, requiring walks to central dumpsters.[2]
