I had three nights at this super camp. The location is at the end of the park, very quiet, very clean, every location is designed for comfort, the trail entrance is also nearby, the toilets are very clean, it should be ranked among the top few national parks I have been to. I will miss this super national park giving it five stars.

Campsite was great, but not especially private. Bathrooms were clean, but not lighted (thankfully I had a headlamp).

This is a great cempground. Mostly spread out, remote in the Needles district, and at the trailhead for great hikes. The bathroom in B Loop is great - seems a new, packed earth building with dish washing and water station. The campsites are SUPER variable. The campsites that show up as close to eachother, like a Y driveway off the main loop, are VERY close to each other. There are a couple of them.
We stayed in 19. It is on its own next to a mushroom rock. There are three different tent pads you can choose from depending on view and wind direction. We had sideways hail and 55 mph winds in late March. It was tough and as much as I love site 19, it was exposed to the wind. I thought the best sites were 20 (best), 21 (close to 20 though), 22, and 27 (though you have the trailhead going right by your camp here, little privacy). 24-26 I would want to know who is next to me. 18 seemed little more than a turnout, not good for a campervan or pull behind, maybe kinda passable for a tent. 18 is right on the road.
A loop is first come first served and has some great sites.

Beautiful campground. Clean, well maintained. Site was nicely spaced from adjacent campsites for privacy. Campground host was friendly, helpful and informative about the area.
We have stayed here several times over the years, still one of our favorite places.

We went to volunteer with the Staple Club. They were awesome and so welcoming. Would definitely volunteer with them again, and it's an excellent way to help the Park.

very good bathroom in the campground. Hike between loops is not as trivial as the short distance would lead you to believe.
