Nice campground - right against the cliffs and ruins. Make sure you come early - you cannot reserve a spot. The spring or fall are the best times to visit. Spend at least two nights, or plan at least one full day to see the ruins. Hiking/tours during the day and lots of astronomy in the evenings. A full moon would be a great time to visit as they have a ruins tour during the full moons.
