A delightful 3 day stay at Jumbo Rocks. Vault toilets were very clean and well stocked. Campsite and the whole campground was very neat and well maintained. I loved all the big rocks and camping right next to them. It was a very central location in the park. Just be sure to bring plenty of water with you as there is none in most campgrounds.

The campsites were tiny and right on on top of each other with no chance for a shred of privacy. There was no enforcement of "quiet time' with all kinds of loud conversations, people running their RV generators and campers crashing around at 4:30 am preparing for a sunrise hike with no consideration for others and no admin personnel in sight. It was a miserable, sleepless night that greatly negatively impacted the impressiveness of the natural beauty.

The camp sites are surrounded by huge rocks. Kind of gives you more privacy. You can climb on top of the rocks too. Bring toilet paper. Evenings can be cold in January and February.

Great campground. Dark sky nights were beautiful to look at the stars. I came in January, which was quieter than later in the spring. Flowers weren't blooming yet but it was excellent weather (dry, upper 60s in the day and upper 30s at night).
There are bathrooms decently close to most campsites and it was easy to haul water in. I recommend filling water jugs at the West entrance- the other entrances were water bottle filling stations and difficult to fill 5 gallon jugs, which is what I had brought. The north entrance is easiest to get in if you need to get in/out of the park. The south entrance and Cottonwood campground are pretty far from the north entrance, but it's a beautiful drive.

Stayed at site 115. It was nice and wide open. I will say you do feel close to your neighbors time to time as you could hear their conversations, but it was not a problem for me. 114 and 116 are close by. It was nice being against the rocks and being able to trail out from the site. Would stay here again!

Really enjoyed our 3-day, 2-night stay at Jumbo Rocks campground. Our site was at the "back" of the campground and therefore was relatively quiet and void of much car traffic. The sunrises on the boulder formations were spectacular.
