This created dangers and headaches for campers, so a bypass around the campground is being cut. Expect delays of 15 to 30 minutes on Park Boulevard near the campground. In the slack summer months, there's a chance a stretch of Park Boulevard will be closed entirely on weekdays. Through May, ranger-led tours of the Desert Queen Ranch are conducted daily at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., with an additional tour at 3 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Daily tours will resume in October.
Tours last an hour and a half.
It's advisable to make reservations well in advance.
