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.

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!

Amazing views !!! We were tucked away in the huge boulders - it was so cool to feel like we were there alone. Close to so many hiking trails, skull rock trail can be accessed from the campground. Favorite over black rock canyon

Wonderful campsite. Easy access to main road. Close to bathrooms, trash, and recycling.

Great site in a great campground in a great national park. Zero complaints. It was well maintained and exactly as described.

A little difficult to find site-associated amenities, but overall an excellent experience.

First time camping and visiting Joshua Tree and I can express this enough… TOTALLY WORTH IT! My husband and I loved finding trails and learning about all the things! If you are looking for a more quiet campsite, I’d recommend reserving a site in the 40s+!
