We loved site 12. Perfect for our kids. They climbed on the rocks directly at the site for hours.

Beautiful and primitive campground in Joshua Tree. The space was great, the views were stunning, the night sky was out of this world. Only one bathroom near us, but at least it wasn't stinky. Coyotes howled and walked through the campground overnight, so if you do bring your pups, just make sure you keep them safe in your tent or van/RV at night. You can't access the park by car from the campground, as the nearest entry is about 15 minutes by car. Good to know when planning your activities. As always, pack it in, pack it out! Would definitely camp here again.

Quiet and lovely. This campground is accessed from the highway so you have quick access to town.

Favorite campsite in SoCal!

Signs everywhere say the campground is full, but this is not true. They are available to reserve online for the same night. The web page does not organize the available sites numerically, so it becomes difficult to find the site you want. Very poor management.

This campground is stunning and has lots of great climbing.

Campsite 12 is hella secluded. DO NOT CHOOSE A CAMPSITE THAT IS NEXT TO THE VAULT TOILET. THOSE SMELL HOOOOOORIBLE!!!!The rocks next to the campsite are nice to climb :)

Private and quiet. Great site to see the stars. It was well kept. Dumpster bin is walking distance. Did not use the restroom there, but read reviews that toilets are non-flushable. Will definitely book this site again when the weather is cooler.

We stayed at site 12. Very spacious site and private. One of the best ones I think. But overall this campground is excellent. We will be back again.

Our third time staying here, we love Indian Cove. The silence, the crisp and clear blue skies and friendly fellow campers were fantastic. Make sure to take advantage of the day use area to do some scrambling.
@PhilipC481· Camped on Oct 17, 2021 at Campsite #12
Indian Cove is a beautiful campground. It has many sites but it stretches out over a mile so it doesn't seem crowded. Our site was particularly private. An army rock climbing excercise with about 30 guys starters off with a bang at 6am next to our spot. Fortunately we are early risers. It is near the spectacular 49 palms canyon trail and the nature trail at the end of the camp was interesting. It is lower in the park, so is warmer than some of the other campgrounds. Recreation.gov is a stressful site to navigate.

It was really nice. wasn't noisy enough distance with other campers. I wish to come back with my family again soon

What a beautiful place. Very well kept sites. Excellent experience for a young family!
@AdrianC709· Camped on Apr 14, 2021 at Campsite #12
Beautiful site with privacy. Site 12 has some big rocks around it that give shade and privacy and some protection from wind. Rangers were very friendly at check in.
@MiguelO252· Camped on Mar 2, 2021 at Campsite #12
Great site. Loved it

The kids had so much fun for climbing the rocks behind the campsite. We got phone signal/wifi in some areas.
