El Litro RV Park in Todos Santos
Does anyone know if El Litro RV Park in Todos Santos is still in business? The only references I can find to it online are ten years old or so....
and the only contact I can find is a fax number!

If you look on http://www.ioverlander.com they say it is open. Since camping sites here in Baja (and Mexico) are steadily declining due to development, I found
this site to be the most accurate as it is used by people worldwide when traveling in Mexico.

It is listed in 'Camping Mexico's Baja' by Mike and Terri Church 2017 6th edition.
They (El Litro) have a Facebook page, but there is almost nothing on it: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Trailer-Park-El-Litro/6430421...

A couple months ago, I stopped in to assess for tent camping. Was not impressed -- but appeared to be "open" - nobody around.

It is open year round
Its not for everyone , it does not give the best first impression but there are some very nice people there and its absolutely safe.
The neighborhood can be very noisy with live bands on the weekends and barking dogs that really act up around the full moon.
I sleep like a baby there.
Its 200 pesos for hookup sites and 100p for dry camping.
The hookup sites are mostly full timers and the dry is mostly vanlife types.
I have to say I really enjoy myself there.

There's another place Baja Serena you might check. Rates are for trailers & they do allow camping.

Technically no.
I stay there enough that I have made friends with some of the full timers and they let me on theirs.
Even so I usually do most of my interneting at La Esquina across town( way too hip coffee shop) or this little over priced organic market/juice bar
nearby. There is also a little dive bar called "Shut up Frank's" within walking distance that has pretty strong wifi.

I have friends who live full time there. Tobias gave an accurate description. Canadians love it. A bit overcrowded and people are now leasing
spaces full time to assure their space. Ever met Frank, Tobias? Careful how you describe his Watering Hole...Internet, yes and good people. Very
limited dry camping anymore,

Sorry , did not mean to disparage Franks. Dive bar is not nearly the pejorative term in my crowd as it is in others. Its a nice little place with
decent prices. And they have meatloaf night!

Seconded. Dive bar implies straightforward good times, simple drinks, and lively conversation, unencumbered by desperate attempts to create phony
atmosphere through interior decoration and/or trendy c-cktail lists, a history you can read on the walls in every old framed photo, grimy out-of-date
business card shoved into a crevasse, glitching neon bar sign, and stained wood panel. Yay for dive bars!
Seriously if I walk into a another bar with fake reclaimed wood, edison bulbs, and a c-cktail list with every drink 12 dollars, I'm gonna puke.
(apparently c-cktail is a no-no word)
