Nice campground

Site 47. Nice campsite, spacious. Campground could use better signage to locate sites. Had to drive around on rutted roads with trailer to locate sites bathroom was in good condition and visitor center in campground was nice with friendly staff. Has dump station but found it by accident because of poor signage.

Absolutely loved our experience here. Our campground was very large and clean. The bathrooms were also very clean. Had a fun time going on the beautiful hikes right in the campground. The Joshua Trees are BEAUTIFUL. Although the roads are a bit bumpy, we had no issues at all - just drive slow and steady. Will definitely come back!

We arrived after dark and it was nearly impossible to find our space and get into it because the campground roads are not clearly marked. There was no entrance area or check in and so we finally drove around with our Google map on my phone and a flashlight outside to find our space. Very quiet and lovely in the morning. Nice level space, but so hard to find in the dark.

We had a very nice stay at Black Rock Campground. Beautiful place! Nice hiking trails. We did a drive-through loop of the park, and that was great. The only downside was the lady in the information center. She just wasn't very nice.

Campgrounds are clean and bathrooms cleaned daily. Roads throughout the campground are in need of total repair. They are in terrible condition and shape. All campsites need to be regraded level and improve drainage throughout.

Wonderful location where it is easy to make some hikes in the park. Our campground was a bit uneven and our levelling system could just handle this, next time we need some levelling blocks otherwise all good for this price.

This is a gorgeous campground and VERY rustic. I'm not sure when the flooding occurred but the roads are in very poor repair with washouts. Most campsites are unlevel, sloped for drainage at minimum, so be prepared for that. T-Mobile signal was minimal.

This is our second time camping here because it's a great location, beautiful & quiet surroundings plus great hiking trails. We enjoy exploring different parts of the park and towns nearby as well.as going to Desert Hot Springs for a soak.

Trails are poorly marked and campground roads are in dire need of repair. Great location for views and hikes. Toilets were well maintained.

Great campsite with nice trails. Nice space around your camp spot with big bench, fire pit and bbq. On site visitor centre had very good wifi. Close to shops of yucca valley and close to get into park. Would be good if campsite had washing up facilities. Would stay here again.

Fine campground with numerous trails to hike from camp
@AntonioM1C38C5 · Camped on Nov 8, 2023 at Campsite #47
The camp is far from the entrance of the park and it is in very poor condition. Nothing interesting there.
@JillS9232022 · Camped on Aug 6, 2023 at Campsite #47
Nice site close to the bathrooms (which were clean). We arrived late to try to avoid the heat so it was a little challenging to set up camp in the dark. The roads within the campground were deeply in need of repair; in fact they did have staff trying to fill in holes the day we left. We hiked a bit in the morning which was nice, but again too hot for a more extensive hike.

Sunset at Keys Lookout and driving back to the campground was amazing.
@RonH289 · Camped on Dec 26, 2021 at Campsite #47
Roads need a lot of work and would be helpful if the campsites were marked out to better know your boundaries when you pull into camp.
@KennethA917 · Camped on Nov 1, 2021 at Campsite #47
Clean restrooms. Clean campsites and dump station. Good trail info. Rough roads and unlevel campsites.
@CarolM476 · Camped on Jun 5, 2021 at Campsite #47
Black rock campground is the perfect place to begin your camping adventure. It is not too far from the city yet out enough to get a great hike. It is family friendly.
@SuzanneA497 · Camped on Mar 14, 2021 at Campsite #47
There were no issues, the bathroom was convenient, well stocked with toilet paper, soap and H20. The campground was close to great hikes : Eureka peak and Warren peak. Be sure to get the little map of the hikes when you come in.
We spent one other day in the main park. Fortunately we were in a Sprinter van so when it snowed we were snug.
