Nice spot to reserve

Great spot! We were nervous about not being able to find a spot on Memorial Day weekend so it was nice to reserve something for peace of mind. We were nervous about having a campfire cause it was windy and dry but I'm sure times earlier in the year would be good

It was a beautiful remote spot. Last minute decision, communication was prompt. Access was road road/path.

Quiet and isolated but nearby

This site is very near Carrizo Plains National Monument, yet is very isolated and quiet. We've stayed here multiple times when we visit Carrizo.

We never made it to the site. Google Maps did not match the Host's directions. She said there was no signage of roads and its easy to get lost. We tried her by phone but it was out of service. We sent several emails but never received a response. This hipcamp seems out of service! Will inquire about a refund.

Heritage is decent

Overall, if you are looking for a place to stay overnight… it will do. It was our first time coming to Carrizo Plains and we were unsure of the camping situation, so having a spot gave us peace of mind. That said, we explored CP first and it was amazing with lots of BLM and free camping options. We drove to our Heritage reserved spot, and the landscape significantly changed. It felt more desolate. The 7 mile road to get to the location was bumpy and unpleasant. So, we rested for a couple hours inside our van, then left and found a lovely spot to camp inside CP. Pro: secured camp spot, picnic table, fire pit Con: not the best location, overgrown vegetation, not picturesque

My plans changed and I didn’t end up spending the night in the site. But I saw the sign for it on 7 Mile Rd, and the owner was very easy to communicate with as I was considering booking. Seems like a great spot.
