S10 South Side #10 Tent Site

Very clean. Conveniently located. Very friendly staff. The spots were large and week-spaces. Showers are in the middle of a remodel and there were portable showers available but not as well kept as the rest of the property. I would definitely stay again.

S03 South Side #3 Tent Site

Had a great experience at our site and property managers provided all sorts of cool amenities and were very kind. Our neighbors were extremely disruptive and were treating this campground as if they were on public land, but that is absolutely not the fault of the managers. Overall would recommend! Just be prepared for sucky neighbors.

S08 South Side #8 Tent Site

Really nice spot. I recommend going on non-busy times. We were there around February 22 and there was only a few tent camps set up. Very quiet so sound travels easily from one site to the other. That’s why I recommend going on a non busy time frame. Property was clean and well maintained. Office was easy to access and had a few essentials like firewood, water, ice, and more depending on what you needed. Plus a few small souvenirs. Cute little duck pond with some catfish and turtles hanging around. We went for the night sky views and we were not disappointed! Close by the West entrance of Joshua Tree National Park so if you have trouble booking a site there, this is a great nearby alternative. Site had a few Trees/bushes for “privacy”, picnic table, and burn pit for campfires. What more do you need for some good desert camping adventure?
