Great location. Sites are very close together. Roads are so bad you could break an axle. It has a dump station, which is a plus because Indian Cove does not. I prefer Indian Cove over Black Rock.

Facilities are much cleaner than state parks! Very happy with my stay.

This place was great, easy to find, well maintained, spotless restrooms, great trails connected directly to the campground, and nice quiet neighbors.

Well-equipped, close to trails, and great starting point to hike in Joshua Tree.

The landscape is unique and beautiful, but the campground is a bit noisy, not much vegetation separating the campsites so that you hear every conversation of your neighbors. At least two RVs ran generators after 10pm. The park allows RVs next to sites with tents. It would be a better experience if these huge vehicles had their own campground, or were fined for running generators after 10pm.

It got surprisingly cold the first night. It didn't get too windy this time, but that did happen the last time I camped there. The starry night was absolutely amazing as was the full moon that rose over the hills later! Most sites don't have a lot of shade, so keep that in mind if you plan on staying there when once it gets hot.

fire pit was different from those at the sites near us, was not circular and not great for windy nights like ours
