Nice campsites between rocks. They are not on top of each other but we can hear and see your neighbors. Remember this is a dry camp so NO water. You must bring in all you need but you can fill up at the ranger's station. I have been here at least 3 trips and will come back again when I visit Joshua Tree NP.

My only complaint is that the restroom locations only have one stall. The restroom near my campsite always had people waiting. One stall to be shared by several campsites is not enough. Restrooms were fairly clean. Campsite are surrounded by cool boulders. Was nice that there is a separate bbq grill from the fire pit grill. Was very windy during my stay. Make sure to tie your tent/canopy down good!

We spent our honeymoon at Joshua Tree in our Sprinter van. We stayed at the Indian Cove Campsite our first night nestled against the boulders. Our fire danced off the huge boulder right next to the van. Tomorrow we move to Jumbo Rocks Campground. Phone reception is not great but there is reception. The weather here in April is perfect. We are very pleased with our current lodgings. Joshua Tree National Park is an amazing place to make life long memories!!

The most beautiful campsite I’ve ever stayed at. Group site was HUGE with a water fillup conveniently at the ranger station nearby. Bathrooms were relatively clean. The many tables made it easy to eat and spend time together as a group. We didn’t use the grill but we used the fire pit a few times.

Best spot of camping all week! Nestled right in the boulders! Sites were well maintained, fires gave off cool reflections off the rocks. Did some scrambling in Rattlesnake Canyon but only got about a half mile in then we just couldn’t find the trail so we turned back.
