I tried to stay at the campground and I drove up and it was turned back because of the fire which I didn't know anything about. The next day I went up again to hike a trail and the park was then opened and I did a short hike and grabbed a campsite which was excellent. The next morning I hate to the fire line and chatted with some of the firefighters who were putting on hotspots and they were very friendly and the whole experience was positive and scenic. I would stay again.

Close hikes, great sunset pictures.Not as busy with traffic compared to the rest of the Park.

I do quite a bit of camping around our national parks, and while the staff was great at Black Rock, the people camping there were not. I stayed four nights, and the campers around me just seemed generally unaware of how loud they were, and I considered leaving early because of this. I'd love to come back to visit Joshua Tree in the next year, but I don't think I'd stay at this campground again, unfortunately.
