Maybell Park Campground

Looked at may pull offs on the highway heading east and found this Maybell Oasis. Have 60 ft with cargo and no pull through's but the park was not full so parked sideways to plug in power. Park and bathrooms are good and will check out the Yampa River for fishing. Many hunters are camped here as it is Oct. Google Earthed the area. WIFI is ok, but my Netgear Booster did the trick to strengthen it. Look at the far side of the park to stay off the highway side if you want quiet

We stayed here two different nights (6-10 & 6-12) and one night at the Sand Wash Basin boondocking. Nice city camping but the time we were there they shut the water off at night so no shower until 09:00 am I think they are trying to conserve water or to prevent people from taking water. Showers are $3 per person. Everything worked but not a big budget for new up grades. No site map for camping spots but can accommodate any size camper. No wifi no phone service two pay phones at gas station one block away, gas station also has propane, ice, wood and air hose. Try and bring everything you need Maybell dose not have a lot.

So we stopped here because I am a wild mustang photographer and wanted to go see the horses of Sand Wash Basin. We ended up parking our rig parallel to the site because there was no other way without blocking the road.
It was perfect $20 for electricity with a quiet place to hang out. Watch out for the bugs!!!!
The showers were older but very clean with plenty of super hot water. The dumping site is in the back of the campground, as well as fresh water, the spigot was broken but still functional with a little bit of effort. Closest restaurants are 30 miles away in Craig.
If you see Deddie, she takes care of the park, introduce yourself, she is awesome. She showed us some horned owl fledglings that were hanging out in front of her house.
There are plenty of smaller lots around the park but if you are in a big rig, the front of the park is perfect. It is by the road but it is super quiet at night and even during the day it is not a heavy traffic area.

US 40 is not a very busy highway once you get west of Steamboat Springs. This was a nice stop to dump and get water and stay for the night. There are quite a number of 30A sites along the outside of the park - but if anyone has a long rig (like ours at 43'), they will block a number of sites unless they park at one of the ends. The dump station is along the back of the park, $5 to dump; no cost to fill with fresh water. As mentioned by another reviewers, payment is by honor system based on what you make use of.

We found this great little city park with electric RV hookups and camping right off highway 40 in the tiny town of Maybell. Despite that, noise was minimal as this highway has very light traffic. It was the perfect place for us to stop for the night between Steamboat and Salt Lake City. It had 10 or so spots, a bathroom, showers, and was plowed in the winter- big plus! The central water spout was shut off in the winter, but they had a dump that was $5. The park is not manned, and payment was an easy envelope (honor system) based on what you used- electric, dump, shower, etc. The town itself has nothing much but a post office and library, and only our ATT service worked (barely), no Verizon service, otherwise would have given it 5 stars. We plan to come back in summer to explore the huge wilderness areas nearby in this northwest corner of Colorado!
