Wonderful campground. If you go to Joshua tree national park, you should definitely camp to see the stars. I found the park one of the least interesting of the national parks until I got to camp here. Stars so bright, you can capture them on a potato phone. The camp site themselves are tiny and close to each other but the huge rocks do a great job separating the sites. Bathroom are just hole in the ground, with no running water.

Great campground with well kept sites. The toilets are pit toilets and there are no showers. There was plenty of privacy for tent campers. The large rocks are cool and many people were climbing them. There is direct access to a nature trail that can be hiked in the summer. There are fire pits with a grate on top. The sites all had areas cleared for tents (no formal ten boxes, though) and it was easy to drive stakes.

I was pleasantly surprised by this campsite! We were at spot 44 and it was way more secluded than I expected, which was great. Nice flat spot and close to bathrooms, though not next to rocks like many of the other spots. But we could walk around to find empty sites and climb on the boulders around, nice sunset views and amazing stars at night.

I've stayed here quite a few times. Large enough campground but it definitely started booking up quickly over the last couple of years. The only "bad" thing is that for such a large campground the available bathrooms are quite limited. Not a big deal if you're used to camping, but may deter some.

Yes you need a reservation from August to June. Any time other then that it is first come first serve. All other campsites in the park are first come first serve. If you don't have a reservation you will be asked to leave or be parked in someone else's spot and will have to move. Check reserve California for exact dates.
All campsites have fire pits for campfire, and they have grills as well along with benches. You just need to bring your own wood and fire starters. There's a Walmart around 15miles from the visitor center where you can get wood.
It is possible to spot them, but not likely. I haven't seen any animal larger than a rabbit the whole time
10/21/21. Yes, bring lots of it. You will rin out
No water at ALL. No bathroon water either. Toilets are like outhouses and they didn't smell. They did get dirty, so I cleaned it up, had gloves in our camping gear and it made a difference. Line your cooler with foil and even use a amazon plastic bag to cover your ice bags. We stayed five days and ice were still in cubes. Bring water to drink and clean (small plastic tub works to clean your dishes). Shade, we brought one of those four stand shades and almost wasn't enough! We got lucky and had a tree for cover too. Most sites don't have trees. Stayed in campsite 12. Watch out for mice at night, they look for food around your table at night. Bees looking for water, so don't leave any out, wash your dishes at night. Great rocks and views. Enhoy and hope this helps!!! We stayed May 22-27 and weather was like 80-85.
No. We even weren't able to locate the camp host. Don't repeat our mistake and bring several packs of firewood with you
You can fill up water jugs at the visitor center in Twentynine Palms for sure
You can reserve at most national parks up to 6 months in advance
August is about the time Jumbo Rocks goes on reservation, there were many sites open when we went thru in July. Rock climbing season is when the place fills up.
Next towns are Palm Springs, Indio and La Quinta. Maybe there. Hava a nice stay
It's one of the campgrounds in Joshua tree national park
No electricity, (well maintained toilets, garbage and recycling that's it), that's part of why you are there. Enjoy the desert unplugged
You would just pay the entrance fee at the park and not for any camp grounds.
