Joshua Tree/Jumbo Rocks

November 2025. This reservation ONLY campground has VERY tiny sites. Most are car sized. But its a gorgeous area. Inside the grounds and outside for sure. There are trails right there to walk. Including the trail to Skull Rock. Joshua Tree Park truly is an amazing place. And Jumbo Rock Campground is right on the middle of it.
They do have pit toilets. And they are clean. Plenty of paper too. And they have sorted trash bins. BUT no water. At all. No stores in the park. And no gas. NO CELL SERVICE! So come prepared or go without.
It was reasonably quiet once the tenters stopped slamming car doors. Not many people were burning either.
I gave this campground 4 stars instead of 5 for 2 reasons. One is theres no lights in the bathrooms. There should at least be a solar powered nightlight that comes on inside at night. Public restrooms are often gross and I want to see what Im touching!
Secondly, these parkinglot style walk-in camp sites are pooey. People park in them at will during the day for hikes and whatnot. And they're pretty unattractive. The tenters that do legitimately rent them walk back and forth for hours getting their stuff and slamming car doors each time - no matter the hour. Very disruptive to those with pull in sites. They should be all in their own loop away from the entrance.
You'll get a laught at the bus sized trailers trying to stuff themselves into these tiny sites. They really shouldn't be allowed.
Id stay there again, but I'd be way more choosy about which site I rented.

The campground was amazing! It was clean & well maintained, even during the shutdown. No one bothered our campsite and were polite. There is not complete privacy, but our site was sort of out of the way.  I enjoyed the trip so much, we will do it again next year!

This campground was really great. The location was nice too, since it is in the middle of the park. You are close to everything. I recommend this campground, it is nice for tents as well if you bring a mallet or rock to place the stakes.

Campsites were nice supplied with good sized parking spaces, picnic table, fire pit, and barbecue grill. Toilet near site 63 had well stocked toilet paper. No sink or water at site.

This campground was spectacular. We were in Joshua Tree for three days, and the highlights were all experiences we had at the campground - climbing the jumbo rocks behind our site, stargazing, and watching the sunset at the end of the day. I got chills seeing the silhouettes of solo travelers or small families on top of the larger than life rocks, watching the sun come up each day. It was a quiet but connected, spiritual experience. Lots of coyotes howling at night, bats swooping over as we watched the night sky. We were in site 83 and would recommend for families - toddlers loved scrambling up the paths and rocks right behind our site.

Beautiful! Very open, so no shade. During the summer you need to be summer enthusiastic cauae its hot until the sun is down. For them charging $30 the restrooms are a little disappointing. Some campsites are super small so dont let the pictures deceive you on recreation.gov
Otherwise its a very nice place to stay like a day or 2.
Oh and the night sky...... unforgettable.

Jumbo Campground is one of the best spots for star gazing! The night sky views here are absolutely breathtaking. I stayed at site 120, which was spacious and perfectly located. The overall experience was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this campground to anyone visiting the area.

Great open space, beautiful views, sunrises, sunsets etc! Usually everyone around you is friendly, you'll come across the random grumpy campers who expect everyone to be quiet at all times of the day 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽  All in all, have camped here twice and will be back every year for Easter Sunday 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Service was super spotty, but I prefer to disconnect from the world when camping 🔥🔥🔥🔥 #Camping #Nature #Views #Easter #Peace #Quiet #OpenSpace

Combine an outdoor experience with an art exhibit and playground, and you get this phenomenal camp site! We will absolutely return! You just want to climb all over the place!

Some of the campsites are very small, essentially on the main road, but some have very large spaces away from the main road. Check the location of the campsite before you just reserve any campsite number.

Be aware:
🐺 There is wildlife in the campsite. We had a coyote visitor early in the morning, but it kept to itself. There's signs for tortoises and snakes.  Lots of cool little lizards and plant life.

🚱 Bring all the water you will need - there's no running water at the camps, and the bathrooms often have bees.

🤳There's no phone signal, so I recommend having the HazAdapt safety app on your phone so that you know how to handle emergencies out there.

This place is amazing. I am tempted to downgrade to 4 stars because there is no power or water there, but the place is so amazing it is still 5 stars in my book! Great views, great campsites with plenty of parking, fire pits & bbq grills at each site. Fairly secluded, pcturesque, great hiking trails, star gazing... what more could you want for a desert campground.

Jumbo Rocks is an amazing campground in Joshua Tree National Park. We reserved campsite # 86, December 16 - 19. The campground is centrally located in the NP and the trailhead to Skull Rock nature trail starts by site # 93. The trails to Face Rock and Split Rock are right across Park Blvd. Site #86 has beautiful jumbo rocks right beside the site. We climbed them to enjoy views of the campground and sunsets. Loved the campground and highly recommend it.

Amazing campground, centrally located, clean bathrooms, no running water. Nearby however were amazing opportunities to hike/boulder the
Jumbo Rocks Nature Trail runs right through it, and connects to Skull Rock. Each camp site has it's own BBQ pit and fire ring, we were in a very windy site so the fire was a little challenging to keep going. I would camp again!
