Easy to reach, not so overbooked, access to the lesser known areas of the park which are equally nice and still the main park is reached in about 30 minutes. It was quiet and relaxed while the central park looked very busy to me.

Campground was convenient location, but rustic. Good refuge from high winds and weather. Looked like interesting hiking trails available.

We enjoyed exploring the area and the park. The roads in Black Rock Campground leave something to be desired. Some have recently been repaved, while others are seriously rutted. Some campsites are spacious while others are small and have serious erosion.

Besides visiting the National Park - We enjoyed visiting the Saturday Farmer's Market in Joshua Tree by the Visitor's Center!

We really enjoyed the location and the hiking trails. The campground was very pretty. The roads need a little bit of work, however.
The Campos was off duty at the time we arrived, but he was very helpful and said not to worry and he took my husband in the golf cart around to figure out, which was the best way to get the trailer into our site since we have a little bit of a larger trailer. I would definitely stay there again

The roads in the campground are in terrible shape. The NPS, historically underfunded, hasn't got a chance to improve things with the Administration cutting funding to anything and everything that the people like and use. Very sad, as the park is just going to deteriorate more and more.

Joshua Tree is such a special place. However the BlackRock campground is shabby. Many campsites are very unlevel or have wash outs. Most of the pavement in the campground is in terrible condition. There's also no gate or other barrier to entry so anyone could come through the campground at any time.
I hope to come back to Joshua Tree but I am not likely to return to BlackRock.
