We had one of the best site, it was very spacious and not too far from restroom. But we were there at the beginning of June and the weather was just brutal. It was so hot and windy at the same time. Also, there was a car parked on our spot when we arrived. There was really nothing you can do because there no staff nearby nor at the entrance.Furthermore, during the day, when the temperature was high and the wind blowing at the right direction, the smell of the restroom was definitely noticeable. Additionally, people walked through our site constantly because it was close to restroom even in the middle of the night.To sum up our experience, my kids usually love camping, but they did not enjoy this trip and wanted to go home the very first morning.

Such a beautiful campsite in the rock formations! The stars were amazing and I loved this spot!

Beautiful park and very convenient camp ground. NPS rangers are rare out there these days so keep that in mind when considering activities and sufficient preparation to be out in this wilderness. Hike safe and enjoy!

Beautiful campground close to both entrances of the park. Site 30 was perfect - great views and even a private cave!

We were there during spring break crowds and Indian Cove was not crowded at all, excellent access to bouldering and beautiful setting.

Indian Cove is a must-have experience. Pictures don't do it justice! It's a great location with easy access to necessities (water!) not too far away. I wish I could have stayed longer.

Campsite was very good, however it was extremely loud all night long with endless traffic. I was there on the night the Perseids Meteor shower peaked and it was an absolute zoo. I was very disappointed the staff at JT allowed the madness. I will never go back to JT in the summer for a meteor shower.

We stayed at site 30 which was wonderful because the temperature was in the 90s but in our little cave which was actually quite large it was shaded most of the day and kept us cool with a breeze. We had a really nice time despite being next to people talking loudly. We were grateful for our cave! I would definitely stay there again it was a really large site, but still close to the neighbors on both sides

This was a wonderland of a camp ground! It’s a short ride over to the north entrance to the park! It’s completely worth it!

Coming during the slow winter time was probably a good call. Not too many people, decent trails and clean sites and restrooms.

Easy to use
