Too windy, left the second night... bathrooms were clean.

the campground is great, perfect location for hikes in Joshua Tree, very easy access. Maybe we were unlucky but there were many noisy campers, with music and shouting all night long.

Although the campground roads were rough, it was easy to get into the site. It's proximity to a bathroom was great and there was plenty of shade during the mornings and evenings. Overall an excellent tent camping spot.

Large campsite for bigger size tents. The only downside about this site is there's not much covering from the wind, so if it's going to be a windy night, you will feel it in your tent.

Spot 70 at Blackrock was a great location for tent camping. The spot includes the classic fire ring and picnic table along with some trees that gave great cover feom the wind and people. Will definitely be coming back to this spot again.

Clean bathrooms. Easy to find. Good cell service if you need to stay connected. Plenty of space between camp sites.

We drove in around 7PM and had no issues getting to the campsite. We called ahead and let them know we were arriving late(ish) bc I was afraid there would be a gate or something -- but no issues at all. The daytime was brisk but a nice 60-63 degrees, over night was coooold 37 but we were fine by the campfire and then bundled up in the tent/blankets/beanies/etc. Nice drive into the town for everything (Groc Out!!!) you need and then into JT Nat Park. It felt a little like luxury camping as we went out to lunch and got some food to heat up over the fire for dinner. Only needed the cooler for drinks and breakfast items! Long drive from the Bay Area but happy we made the trip, would recommend to others.

Its car camping, but the grounds were clean and the facilities were clean. Would certainly go back

This was an excellent camp ground among mature Joshua Trees and close to several great trails. Our only disappointment was that the nature center listed is not a nature center, but an art gallery.

This is a crowded campground with very little space per campsite. If you want to experience a beautiful, somewhat wild space with some peace and quiet , I’d recommend choosing another campground near or within Joshua Tree.

Site was clean. Easy to navigate around. Close proximity to bathroom, trash, and water but still had a lot of privacy. Neighbors were quiet and super nice. The stars were amazingly bright at night. Only draw back is the crazy strong winds late afternoon to evening. But they died down at night. Very welcoming hosts came by to check in on us and remind us to be mindful of the fire and noise. Bathroom was clean. Site is well maintained. Hiking trails easily accessible. Overall, we had a great time! Looking forward to making more reservations!

What a great campground. Extremely clean and the restrooms were always kept immaculate. Had a few hiccups with the location placements of our tents, but staff was friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back again!
