Awesome
Absolutely awesome spot! My daughter (9) and I had a blast walking through the Joshua trees and checking out the stars at night. The fire pit was perfect and just an overall really chill and relaxing time. Just what we were lookin’ for. We’ll be back for sure

Very calm and easy place to stay. Extremely easy driving directions provided. Close enough to town to drive out and grab things you need but far enough out to have your own personal space.

Willhart's crossing is a beautiful campspot. We arrived after dark and were a bit afraid to drive our 30ft camper up and down the sandy road, but we went slow and on the right side, and everything went well. Amazing spot to wake up in the morning and super close to Joshua Tree NP. Thanks to David for sharing this spot!

Great site!
Great site! Well maintained, beautiful views, the night stars were amazing! Sites were very close together so you will def hear neighbors. GPS point was close but a few hundred yards past the entrance fyi.
