Interesting posts, given a choice* I wouldn't have even considered staying anywhere else in the area, since the Basin is so much cooler and more scenic. Although if you have electricity, perhaps the temperature doesn't matter so much....
* had to stay in Lajitas one trip due to the Basin being full
Cottonwood campground was closed due to its being low visitation season when we were there. It looked OK, especially for birding, but was considerably hotter than the Basin.
Totally agree though, Big Bend should be on everyone's list.
