This is one of our favorite parks with some great hiking, and/or mountain bike riding. The only issue that I had with the park was we spent one night in one spot and we were transferring to another spot the next day. They wouldn’t let us move into our new spot, even if it was empty until after noon. so we waited till noon drove back down there with our fifth wheel and checked in - for some reason they wanted our permit tickets that they gave us. Not sure why. Also, the cell phone coverage would work and then all of a sudden it would quit working. We were in site 28 with no hook ups and we were on site 23 with electric and water.
We are in a 32 ft fifth wheel

Seminole Canyon is a great park. It's pretty much out in the middle of nowhere. No Verizon service at all but my Starlink worked great.
I stayed at one of the primitive spots and what a view I had! It's super quiet and REALLY dark at night. I didn't get to do any star gazing as a front had just blown in and complete cloud cover (I have to go again when it's clear). The campgrounds are nice and spread apart. There are two distinct areas, one area with hookups (water/electricity) and another area with no hookups. All the spots were super clean and border patrol/NPS drove through the part every couple of hours so I felt very safe. Lots of great hiking! If you are looking for a stop on the way to Big Bend coming from the east, this is a great place to do it, or stay for a while and enjoy the peace. Everyone I ran into the 5 days I was there was very friendly and the staff was very helpful. I didn't get a chance to make it to the Pictographs because it pretty much rained every day I was there. I did make the hike out to the Rio Grande lookout. It's a bit of a hike, but plenty of places to stop and rest. Highly recommend visiting!
I did drive through the part of the park with hookups and lots of great sites. I originally didn't want to stay on the inside loop, but after seeing them I wouldn't mind if I had to. Spots looked well maintained and level and nothing but the west Texas desert outside your door!

We stayed here for two nights as a stop along our way to Big Bend. We took the Fate Bell Shelter Tour to view the pictographs and enjoyed the park staff's presentation about these astounding works of art and culture. The skies at night were dark and the stars were everywhere. We spent the evenings (mid-March) sitting outside watching satellites and shooting stars. The campsite was up on a hill with an expansive view of the desert and Mexico in the distance. We were visited by deer and could hear them eating in the dark. We had some windy days and felt the breeze as our site was fairly exposed, but I would choose it again. It was fairly level with a covered picnic table. We felt safe and everyone was incredibly friendly.

Stayed one night to catch the 3pm ranger tour to the Fate Bell site (4000 yr old pictograph site). Hookups (elec & water) - all good; pull-thru site was handy for a quick overnight; clean bathrooms and dump station. Barely got intermittent one bar cell service on Verizon and my booster didn’t help at all. BUT there is an open wifi connection with the state park service here. It is slow but works if you need to communicate via text/email. But hey, just enjoy a peaceful disconnected night of sleep. This is a great spot to camp otherwise. Very dark at night for some star gazing! Highly recommend.

The site 27 was level with a covered picnic table. Did not use fire ring due to high winds and burn ban from drought.
