So far my favorite campsite in Joshua tree
@JoseG1304798 · Camped on Nov 11, 2025 at Campsite #4
It was great. During our trip the site was mainly empty. Which was suprising. The campsite was clean and the facilities were running great (this was during the shut down).

Beautiful campground with clean facilities. My experience was marred by inconsiderate campers in the next site. They were loud and I had to use earbuds to drown them out. If it had been easier to change sites I would have.

We LOVE Jumbo Rock! It is definitely our favorite spot to camp in Joshua Tree!

This campground is clean and fun to explore, and has plenty of restrooms.

Campground is absolutely beautiful and it was very quiet. Only issue is bathrooms were not super clean including containing a huntsman spider :(

Still a little cold (mid 30s at night) but daytime was lovely. Campground was great as always.

Basically all the campsites have a little private alcove in the rocks. Super cool.

We camped in spot 4 we loved it, the toilets were clean and the host was lovely. Will def be back but just make sure you take plenty of water as there is no faucet at the campground
@TomXDE32B6C666 · Camped on Sep 18, 2022 at Campsite #4
Fantastic experience. Lucky to reserve one of the front campgrounds, with easy access to the main road. Campground 4 provides privacy from the road and other campsites. Also sits across from the bathroom, but position avoids the smell. We checked out campsites next the bathroom and the smell was apparent. Not a lot of people there, look forward to returning.

Like another reviewer mentioned, just after midnight some local guys showed up, drinking and breaking glass bottles and being obnoxious. They mentioned they had a baseball bat so we didnt dare leave our tent to confront them. They finally left at 1:30 am. Joshua tree itself is beautiful. The campground would be better if there was a host to keep those guys out.

Very clean, calm campground. Skull Rock, Face Rock - very close. Spartan toilets, no water even for washing hands.
@KonstantiE31AF · Camped on Apr 30, 2022 at Campsite #4
Great campground overall! Pros:- Beautiful rocks all around providing amazing backdrop and protecting from the wind overnight- Situated near the popular trail that leads to Scull Rock- Clean- Has both fire ring and BBQ grillCons:- Spots are highly variable in surroundings and privacy/available space- Toilets have bees during the day

Beautiful campground. Very clean. Good hiking right from your campsite.
@rosas30199C34C · Camped on Feb 14, 2022 at Campsite #4
I stayed at sites 091 and 004. site 091 was nice as it was a good distance from other camp sites and allowed me to park near my tent. it had more privacy than site 004 which requires parking few yards away from tent set-up and it had other campers nearby. they had their tent setup near where I parked my vehicle.
@DavidB5075483 · Camped on Jan 30, 2022 at Campsite #4
We stayed in site 04. Camping in among the rocks was incredible - strongly recommend seeking a site in the single digits. We climbed the rocks and watched sunrise from above both mornings. Would recommend, it was a really lovely place and centrally located in the park for convenient access to all activities and the West and North entrances.
@MackenzieB627 · Camped on Nov 17, 2021 at Campsite #4
Love it! Love it love it! We were there for my birthday 2 weeks ago and I already have another trip reserved. It's so relaxing, and a solo sunrise Skull Rock hike should be on everyone's bucket list.
@JohnD301 · Camped on Oct 21, 2021 at Campsite #4
Beautiful
@NelleW756 · Camped on Oct 17, 2021 at Campsite #4
This place is great for kids, but it is insanely crowded! the campsites are right on top of each other and almost all of the the campsites are right on the road, which is probably great for some people but not for those who want to feel like they are in nature and away from it all. Some spots are a little more private and are great. Be careful about which spots you reserve. The park rangers were great and the sites were super clean. We had 4 nights reserved, but left after the first night in search of more privacy and less cars.
Major Issues
@JordanD496 · Camped on Oct 3, 2021 at Campsite #4
The large boulder outcroppings of this campground give it an awesome vibe. Perfect for scrabbling up and finding a high spot for morning coffee/yoga/mediation/star gazing and the list goes one. The pit toilets are what they are lol. Some spots are bigger than others so if you're camping with a couple cars make sure you ensure you pick a campsite that fits your group size.
Overall I love this camp ground and recommend staying here when making your plans for visiting J Tree

Beautiful park and well established trails! Be careful when walking off trail since it is rattlesnake country and they are out there!

Really enjoyed our time at Jumbo Rocks. Although the campsite was supposed to be full, the camp sites around us remained empty.
