We stayed at site 26 and it was fantastic! Totally private on either side, huge jumbo rock that provides shade in the afternoon. Bathroom is just steps away, and my kids loved playing on all the rocks behind the site. Space for a small or medium tent. Probably one of the most unique campgrounds ever! If you are looking for a great site with privacy pick #26!!

Naturelle, propre, paisible et grandiose

Nice campground. Though no cell service. Sign for campgrounds 25-4x is pointing in the wrong direction. Passed the road to my campsite twice before guessing the sign was pointing improperly.

We had one of the best camping experiences ever!

Restroom clean and well stocked with toilet paper. Trash cans were emptied daily.

Site said could fit RV but would not accommodate my 12 foot tear drop and my telluride

Veri nice scenery
@PaulaM4355275 · Camped on May 26, 2025 at Campsite #21
These campsites are quite smaller than most others weve experienced in Joshua Tree. Great location and absolutely stunning but pay special attention to surrounding spots and how close they will be.
@MikiNCC5C87690 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #22
The campsites were separated from each other, so we enjoyed our own private space.A starry sky and a world without the internet. It was very relaxing.
@GertJanv11573C · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #81
Beautiful place. We enjoyed it very much.

@JLuisO33682570 · Camped on May 20, 2025 at Campsite #2
We were not able to back into our site and having our vehicle close to the table. Otherwise, the site was great!
@DivinaBFE69E2B · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #82
The best part is that you are in the park. It is not recommended for bigger RVs for good reason. It is dry camping, so make sure you have everything you need, and you will have a great time.
@PatrickK884942 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #94
Great place between the large boulder rock formations. Spacious and private sites.
@LoraD7A4286B9E · Camped on May 11, 2025 at Campsite #23
I booked the first day reservations opened for the dates I wanted, so I could have booked something better, but I couldnt tell from, the photos, so I ended up with a campsite that was squished in between two others. Luckily no one showed up for those campsites, but I had no idea they wouldnt because both sites had a reserved sign on them. When I say squished, I mean my picnic table was less than 20 feet from the one in the next camp site. Other sites were far more private. Also there was very little shade in my campsite and so it was either miserably hot or ridiculously windy. I was only tent camping without many amenities, so it could have been better if I had more, but the point is, there were better sites and I just couldnt tell from the photos online so be careful as to what you choose if youve never been there before.

Beautiful campground. Campsite was clean and well maintained. The only downside was the lack of a running water and because there are only pit toilets at this campground, people can be pretty careless with keeping the restrooms clean, nothing major but something to consider. You may want to bring a few cleaning supplies to clean the toilet before using.
@AndreaP9571578 · Camped on May 9, 2025 at Campsite #5
Our camp site was AWESOME. Only thing is we arrived when it was dark and didnt realize we had to walk a little bit from the marked parking spot to our actual campsite, so be aware of this if you arrive late and cant see the layout. Picnic tables have the campsite number on them which is helpful. This site was nicely tucked in, good privacy even if between other sites. Id highly recommend it!
@PeterR5227973 · Camped on May 9, 2025 at Campsite #93
Great spot, campsite was isolated from other sites so we had lots of privacy, bathrooms were clean and not too stinky!
@RolandKE9658F0 · Camped on May 7, 2025 at Campsite #83
We spent one night at Jumbo Rocks Campground. It was lovely to sleep by the rocks. We enjoyed sitting around the grill and campfire in the evening.Everything was very clean, and the sites were beautifully landscaped.
@DiegoMCD0D4442 · Camped on May 7, 2025 at Campsite #117
Beautiful campground between boulders and trees. Site n. 117 not to much shade, no barbecue but close to restrooms.
@DavidE7840041 · Camped on May 5, 2025 at Campsite #78
Spacious, nice site. Peaceful and beautiful. Sad to leave.
@JamieL7227610 · Camped on May 4, 2025 at Campsite #81
Site 81 was lovely for our small RV (26'). It felt nestled in the jumbo rocks and somewhat private. Would book this site again!
@michaelg734741 · Camped on May 4, 2025 at Campsite #103
Our second visit to Jumbo Rocks and the place never gets old. Love it!
@DiegoU141D6333 · Camped on May 3, 2025 at Campsite #112
The site was ok. The website to book is really bad

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
