The site 052 easily fit our 24’ travel trailer unhitched from 20’ truck so they could be parked on the gravel pad slightly overlapping but off the loop road. Expect to use the backside (driver’s side) of your camper for shade in the afternoon if you are enjoying the outside. Beautiful views of the rocks from the site! No cell service using AT&T. Get water at check in entering main road as there is none in campground. Great place!

One of my favorites. It was just perfect, the view, the space & comfort. Also if you decide you’re not going please cancel so others can enjoy it <3

This is a gorgeous campground that is easily accessible from outside of the park. It’s a short drive to get cell phone service or to run to the grocery store. Site 53 isn’t close to any neighbors and has amazing views. This site also didn’t have as much wind as the other site where I stayed, site 61. The only problem I encountered at this site was that people kept driving or walking by and taking pictures of me and my campsite because of the beautiful view behind us.

Site 61 is a beautiful campsite with a large flat area for tents. There is no shade, so bring a canopy or have AC in your RV. There isn’t a driveway, so you park parallel to the road. It was already hot, in the mid 80s in early April. This site seems to be in a wind tunnel in evening/night, so I had to take down my canopy when I wasn’t using it for sun. Vault toilets smell terrible but they’re clean and well-stocked with toilet paper. Park rangers come by periodically. There are no neighbors on either side, just one across the road. Unfortunately those neighbors were quite loud all evening. I was thankful they weren’t right next to me.

Bouldering wonderland. Wind can be daunting but not as bad as jumbo rocks. Even the vault toilets can’t take a star away from this true national treasure.

Absolutely gorgeous campground. It's very nice that it's so close to 29 Palms and so many good hikes. The bathrooms were always clean and full of toilet paper, all of the sites seemed very clean as well.
