Disappointing experience. Sites are small,Close together with direct view of neighbors. Close enough to hear normal conversation. Unfortunately we also experienced an inconsiderate neighbor who played loud music from 1am until 4am. Part staff were attentive to our complaints the next morning, telling us that law enforcement would visit the next night. We checked out early.

I think my only suggestion would be to have better signage to the dump station and for all roads for that matter ie. one way road signs. Is the dump station in fact accessible by two directions? If so, it wasn't clear on our trip. The water hose at the dump station was not functional.

Loved camping at Joshua Tree. We were there for a week and had to move around a bit, so we camped at 2 different sites here and at Jumbo Rocks. Both were great for different reasons. Thank you!

The campground roads are pretty bad and signage is lacking. Our site was 65, fairly unlevel for our trailer and on the main road. The camp sites in this area were very close with no privacy. What gives it 3 stars is the absolute beauty that surrounds you.
@CharlesF612014 · Camped on Jan 13, 2020 at Campsite #65
Very nice campground. Very nice staff. Take away one star for the "No Dogs on Trails" rule.
@JohnP1604489 · Camped on Jan 2, 2020 at Campsite #65
Nice campground. Very clean spacious sites.

Great National Parks Campground. Scenic. Helpful Staff. Well maintained sites, facilities, and services. Given the terrain and layout, larger vehicles (combos) may be challenged (turns and clearance over dips and bumps). Although it is about 20 minutes outside the park entrance, easy drive and lets you visit the visitors center (north side also outside entrance), easily. Definitely would return.

Bathrooms at campsite are ok. The campsite itself is on windy side and it can be realy windy (so you may have to hold your tent all night not to be blown away)
