Lost Dutchman State Park

We stayed here January 25, 2015 for 4 nights.  We had a long 100 foot pull through paved asphalt site with 50 amp electric and water.  There is a dump station in the park, and there are also dry camping spots.  My only gripe is they placed the electrical and water on the wrong side and I had to run my water and electrical cords under the motorhome in order to have door facing picnic table and fire pit.  Other than that, this is a wonderful park with natural desert landscaping throughout the park.  A beautiful view of Superstition Mountain with trails leading to the mountain.  We paid $30 per night plus $5 reservation fee and you can also dry camp for $20 per night.  The campground was full every night so reservations are recommended.  We had a huge coyote prance 50 feet behind our site at dusk one night and he was as big as Buddy.  I rate this park F****.
We stay here to visit our relatives Stan, Jo, Kathleen, Arlie, & Greg.  This campground is located on Apache Trail and just across the street a Gold Mine attraction with tours of the old gold mine on a train along with a bar, restaurants and several shops.  There was a country singer Paula Williams who was very good and did a great job of yodeling.  Aggie purchased one of her CD's.  We also took Buddy for a ride to Canyon Lake where he was able to go for a much need bath in the lake after 10 days in the desert.  I was able to snag a new cowboy hat, Yeehaaaaa.
