★★★★★ 5.0 Snip ten · Mar 2026

We had been RV traveling for 6 weeks in 2025 summer. And here was the best. Dump and water station available. Very calm and peaceful. Best part, it was cool after sunset. Also good for 2 - 3 hours of round tekking available. I still recall here as best camping spot during our RVing

★★★★★ 5.0 Luke Hartman · Jan 2026

A reservation-based campground in the Mojave National Preserve. Popular in the winter. A very well-kept campground with basic amenities. No potable water. Several hikes around the campground near the Hole-in-the-Wall. I recommend the Rings Trail. Beautiful desert.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jake Snouffer · Jan 2026

Nice campsites, each with a fire pit and table. Need to pay and reserve ahead of time, but no check in required

★★★★★ 5.0 David Mormann · Mar 2025

Potable water, pit toilets, rv dump station with clean out, and dumpsters. Generator hours 7a-7p. Amazing Campsites and views of the area. The visitors center is in walking distance with 2 hikes a 1.4mi the hole in the wall rings hike is great with petrogliphs and a 6mi hike also.

★★★★★ 5.0 Wyn B · Aug 2025

Quiet great spot to camp. Camp sites include a picnic bench, a fire pit and a place for your te nt. The sites were clean well taken care of with stunning views. Be cautious driving in, not only do Desert Tortoise roam on the roads, we also encountered a cow.
