Looking at Rafter J Bar Ranch and Horse Thief Campground and RV Resort. Which would you recommend? Thanks, Clint

You asked for an opinion between Rafter J and Horsethief. Of those I would choose Rafter J. Much more convenient to use as a homebase.
Horsethief is just down the road to the east of Rafter J. Same area.
Rafter J is right off the main highway (Hwy. 16). Horsethief is a couple of miles off of Hwy 16 down a curvy mountain road (Hwy. 87- which is the start of the Needles Highway scenic drive). Of the two Rafter J would be the easier to access.
