Not bad as I thought it was going to be. Not many folks in the approximately 400 'sites'.
Super clean bathrooms and areas to wash dishes.
Dump available at one location.
We used this affordable location (1/2 off $14 charge for interagency senior pass) to explore Death Valley.
No over the air TV, radio stations or cell coverage.
Super easy to get to and level parking for the most part.

We would come back here.

We were able to use our interagency senior pass, reducing the nightly fee from $20 to $10. However, Recreation.gov still charged us an $8 fee for using their reservation system.

Super close to access the Red Rock Canyon trails and scenic drive - a big plus. Be careful, no signage for the campground, turn at the sign noting BLM Fire Department.
Also close to Las Vegas if that is of interest to people.
The restrooms were cleaned at least once a day by the super friendly camp hosts.
There were areas to fill water containers if needed.
No dump area.
Not all the sites are level and approximately 20 feet from your neighbors. It was super quiet when we were here (in Feb 2022).
No Verizon or AT&T but did get a few channels over the air for TV.
Town services was only 3 miles away (gasoline, market, restaurants).

We would come back here since the environment and views are wonderful!

We stayed on Dec 31st (New Years) and it was super quiet except at mid-night. Only two other RVs in the 8 slots marked 'RV Parking'.
The RV parking area was in front of their auto service area so it was not on a busy road so no road noise.
And no semi's came in during the night.
Lots of restaurants in walking distance so we went out for pizza, which was super!
We had a great experience at this Walmart.

We were passing through and stopped for one night.

This is a very basic rv park next to I-40.

The gentleman at the desk was friendly and nice. We didn't look at the shower or bathroom facilities but included with no extra fee.

The WiFi worked well, and it has laundry facilities. The site was level and easy to pull into but no view, tightly packed sites.

Noisy with I40 close and local traffic busy.

A good, clean place for an overnight!

We used this campground in order to restock groceries, laundry, refill our propane and enjoy a brewery. This campground fit our needs and our biggest cudos goes to the staff that runs this operation - SUPER nice folks!
PROS: 1) easy off the main road and easy pull in sites; 2) the facility is very clean; 3) short drive into Montrose; 4) they have propane so staff picked up our tank, filled it and returned to us at our site!
CONS: Can't name any except the campground is right on Hwy 550 but even then, very quiet at night.

We enjoyed this campground and area so much that instead of staying the 'planned' 2 nights, we stayed another 4 nights!

PROs:
* The cost was $2.50 a night with our senior National pass. But, there is no electric, water or dump;
* There are clean bathrooms and trash receptacles;
* The camp hosts were wonderful and friendly;
* There are so many hiking trails right from the campground and the trails are very well maintained (KUDOs to the volunteer group that manages the maintenance!);
* The tiny, tiny town of Datil has a fabulous restaurant, with home made pies!
* The VLA (Very Large Array) was still closed (lack of staffing) but we were able to get 'close enough' to take photos;
* Super cute small town to the east of the campground called Magdalena, we found a great coffee shop!

CONs:
* You are out in the middle of no-where but having said that, the terrain is beautiful;
* Lots of large ant hills in the area, including the campground so you may need powder to prevent them sharing your trailer;
* People do run generators.
