What a great place to camp. Between the boulders and under the start. Take a early morning hike from the campsite and enjoy the quiet. I would highly recommend visiting Josuha Tree National Park and Jumbo Rocks Campsite.

Great campsites! You can spend days exploring the views nearby.

Such a cool place to camp. Was able to take a quick hike to a Skull Rock at sunset and it was magical.

The highlight was Ranger Ryans evening sky presentation.

This campground was so much fun. It was like a playground with all the rocks to climb and explore.

There are several nice hikes, of varying lengths and difficulty, right from the campground.

Site 88 is great. It offers privacy while being close to Skull Rock Nature Trail.

Campground was great and the site had some shade from a nearby bush in the evening (if you want more shade go on the other side of the road). Unfortunately the site next to us was very load and disruptive keeping us up all night

Jumbo rocks was a great place to stay. There were very fun rocks to explore and hike in all directions. We even heard a coyote very close to camp one night.

Great campground but beware that many of the sites have limited space. Site #88 is right along the road with boulders along the roadside. This orientation would not work for our trailer and RTT. We could not determine this from the site description nor pictures. Perhaps a rookie mistake on our part but we ended up camping in the Belle campground.

Amazing, magical, all the stuff! The only bad thing is the other campers, but that cant be helped. Toilets were clean, better than I expected for pit toilets.

What a gem... Need I say more? Ok, must say, haven't used the bathrooms, because we had our own RV, but the place is just stunning. No reception, but everything is wel signaled and the walk to Skull Head is nice to do from the campground. And then.... the hidden valley, wowwwwwww!! Joshua tree was the big surprise of our roadtrip. Thank you Recreation.gov!

There are at least 20 sites that are absolutely gorgeous

Very cool scenery! Make sure to put your kitchen sponges away or a little rodent will take it at night!

What an amazing location and natural wonder and beauty!! We would highly recommend this place!! only a little remark that our reserved tent site was occupied and gave us trouble to find another place to stay during the night. And the campground is also reachable for Rv's, which I found a it disturbing at times when they put on generator. Jumbo Rocks is one of the only places on earth where real silence is to be heard!! And I would propose to kee it like that !!

We loved Jumbo Rocks although to be honest we liked Ryan a little better -- Jumbo Rocks is so big and there were a lot of people around, so it didn't feel as remote as Ryan. However, as the name implies, there are SO MANY ROCKS to climb around on, which our 9 year old totally loved. He was scampering around morning to night. And the campground itself was clean and well maintained.
@LindsayB696458 · Camped on Mar 26, 2023 at Campsite #88
Fun campground to explore! Parking for the skull rock trail is near by, but the park limits access to the campground to people with reservations which keeps the traffic down. It was calm and quiet despite being so close to a big attraction!
