JoeIda Campground

Joleda: In the Pictured Rocks NP buffer zone. I rate primarily based on desire for at least a moderate wilderness type experience w at least some camp site privacy. Cleanliness and care of campground are also taken into consideration. (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer) Overall Rating: 5 - the best privately owned campground layout I have ever seen. For the narrow 1 mile, one lane entry road with few turnouts, I suspect this is tent only or van camping. Check their website.

This is the campground seasoned boondocks would build for their family and friends. Perfect. Huge campsite s that are spread far apart. Small and beautiful.

This is the campground you would build for family and friends. Everything looks new and well cared for. The campsites are beyond spacious. The road into the campground is one lane tight.

The pit toilets are immaculate. The picnic tables are extra large and new. The fire rings have gravel around and again, new.

This is quality in a rustic setting.
