Indian Cove is just the best place to camp. Because you are within walls of boulders, the quiet is palpable. Just wonderful. People donned in headlamps climb the rocks at night and it is a joy to see/hear their joy as they reach the summit. Bathrooms are clean as are the sites themselves.I just love it there! Always drag my heels upon leaving....

Excellent site with breathtaking views, and shade in the afternoon; proximity to many beginner-moderate climbing sites.
No Service

Great couple days at Indian Cove. Cool and cloudy at times with passing storms. Unfortunately left a day earlier due to a bad storm coming with 55-60 mph winds. But such is camping in Joshua Tree National Park. Back again in about a month or so to see the blooms.

Pit toilets are gross the best of times only made grosser if theyre unkept. I found the toilets needing a GOOD cleanAnd the access roads throughout the campground need some maintenance. But , still by far the best camping spot in Zion.

Campsites next to us were overbooked, there were 8 vehicles instead of 2. Their cars were in our campsite! Also, other campers were firing BB guns into the rocks where people were climbing!! We just left, it was horrible. You need a ranger on-site!

Site#96 Shared parking with 3 other sites. Table and fire ring are near the parking area. Short walk to toilets.

Lovely campground. Well thought out camp sites with fire pits and tables. Bathrooms were clean and conveniently located. Close to 29 Palms/Joshua Tree for when we needed to go into town. We enjoyed our stay!

The whole area is really a cool spot, despite having to exit then reenter the park to reach the campground. Great rock formations for viewing and climbing. Our specific spot does not have much of a setback from the few cars parked there, basically our tent was 3 feet away from a bumper of a van. But we still loved it. Because of the surrounding rock formations, the sun "rises" late and "sets" early, just be aware. In some ways its nice as you get less direct sun for a longer period of the day.

We were in a camp spot that had a central parking for about 7 cars. Some of the spots were short walks from the parking. Several carloads opted to sleep in their cars, which was noisy at 1:30 am. Our spot was closest to the parking. Would be helpful to be able to identify this from the map when booking

Gorgeous place with great people. We'll go there again.
