Great spot right out side of town
Guide
Great spot just before Hole in the Wal About 1/4 mile down a road marked “4x4 high clearance only.” But if you’re just hitting the campsite you can make It in a lot less. There’s a turn around there for people towing trailers. No facilities, just a fire ring, red rock peaks and quiet. Absolutely stunning.

Nice for an overnight stop but we stayed about a week. Narrow sites for big rig parking but they were long enough. Our site sloped forward but we managed. No gravel, dirt; it is the desert. Pleasant staff. A whole lot of birds in the bushes and trees chirping as the sun came up.
TravelerWe stayed for two nights, arrived late and left early. Great for an overnight hookup. Spacious parking and environment. Had a nice walk to Walmart (1.2 miles each way) but they do have a shop on sight. Your standard KOA experience would stay again. Clean showers and toilets.
Legend
Nice little campground in desert-quiet.

Stayed here for one night in July. We were afraid that it will be extremely hot, but the night was surprisingly cold. Only a free other campgrounds we have been on our trip could beat the stars at night. Even though the site is in the middle of the desert, everything is perfectly clean and you even have water.
TravelerCampsite with 30 something spots. Potable water and a hose to refill your freshwater (non potable). Graywater disposal available. Dry toilets clean. Amazing views! Visitor centre and walks nearby. Almost empty when we went in early May. Enjoy!!
ScoutGreat camping spots. You feel somewhat close to your neighbors but the are angled where you don't feel on top of eachother. We never saw the host so just bring exactly $12 in cash with you to pay at the stand. Bathrooms are pit toilets but didn't smell and were as clean as the could be. Portable water and the rings loop trail was amazing!!
TravelerGreat location with opportunities for nice hiking. Wonderful surroundings. Our 3 boys had a blast calming and hiking. I would no stay more than two nights if you are looking for something new every day.
ScoutA wide variety of birds here chirping nicely it's very pleasant and interesting.
GuideWe have camped here twice because it is a convenient location on our way from California to other states. But it is also a pretty area. Even though it is first come, first serve, there were plenty of sites available both times we stayed.  There are relatively clean toilets with toilet paper,a waste basket, and hand sanitizer. We were OK in our trailer, but we had to pull down our awning because the wind was extremely strong overnight. We noticed a few of the tent campers left in the middle of the night. A warning to tent campers to check the weather before camping there.

Perfect for cars, vans, and trucks if you just need a legal place to park. Need to drive some gravel roads to get there. We were all alone when we went to sleep and the only light or noise was from the nearby highway. There’s scattered woody trash in the surrounding land so do your part and start a campfire with it. I found a pallet on the ground on my way in.
TravelerLoved it. Some big pull through sites and back in sites for 30+ ft trailers. Water stations spread out through the campground and a Dump station. Camp sites are spaced out with some good distance between. Awesome views of the local mountains and hiking trails are close.
GuidePaved road into campsite (about 20miles). Campground itself is smooth gravel. Well spaced and mostly level sites with beautiful desert vegetation between sites. First come, first serve. Almost empty in late Oct. $12/night. No hookups but access to potable water and a sanidump. Very clean pit toilets. Friendly and informative host. Access to trails right from campground, and information center within sight.
GuideWe observed a few extra large RV's with challenges making it around curve and up the hill. Mod size RV's/Campers did not have an issue.
LegendMade same day reservation. Site is level. WIFi is strong. Would stay again. Excellent pool and spa!

I went fishing there last year It was beautiful, not like it was 30 years ago lol Looking forward to doing some dry camping and fishing for Xmas
GuideGot there after dark, the ranger happened to be zipping past the entrance when I arrived and gave me some good info on where to go.
Set up, read my book, and night night. Lovely sounds of birds and general forest noise.
Next day I took some hikes (my definition of hike is a very low bar) they have a bunch of trails to explore, too.
It's a developed and primary campground less than 10 miles from a city, so you definitely know that you aren't in the wilderness, but it's still a beautiful space!
GuideStopped here traveling on Route 66. Easy check in and courteous staff. Grounds are clean and well kept with some shade. Sites are gravel but pretty level. Bathhouses is clean and pretty new. Couldn’t access campground WiFi

We made the trek out to Hole-in-the-Wall at Mojave National Preserve for one night. It was a much longer dirt road than I had imagined and you go up in elevation. It took almost a half-hour to get to the campground from Cedar Canyon Road.
This is a First Come, First Served NPS campground. We started the loop a little worried because every site was tagged, but by the time we got back over to the first loop, we had our pick of sites. We chose 16 because of the great view and it being directly next to the pit toilet. (The cleanest pit toilet I’ve ever seen)! The campground also has potable water, plenty of dumpsters and a dump station.
We wanted to stay here because we were finishing off our trip the next morning at the Hole-in-the-Wall Visitor Center. It is directly next door, you can even see the lot from the campground.
This was a great place to stay, but maybe it would have been more worth it to stay at least a couple nights. I definitely didn’t realize the trek it was to get here, from the main part of the park. Everything is super spread out at Mojave.

LegendI enjoyed my stay here. The terrain is steep, with mountain pines and boulders. This was a welcome change from the surrounding country, as was the lower temperature that comes with higher elevation. It was about 10 °F cooler here than in Kingman when I visited in June. Tent camping is first come first served. I had no problem finding a good spot on a Friday night.
There are two areas to the campground. The front section has paved roads and is mostly cabins with some tent sites mixed in. There are real bathrooms here, though they were in need of a cleaning when I visited. The back section has dirt roads and all tent sites, with a few porta potties. The roads are steep in places, but nicely graded. My front wheel drive passenger car traversed them without difficulty.
It is very quiet and dark here at night. Flashlights are a must, as are water vessels: there are no water spigots in the back section. I also saw what I am 80% sure was a mountain lion crossing the road at night when I was walking to one of the porta potties.
The only real downside I noticed here was the flies. They don't bite, but they buzz around you constantly and can get pretty annoying.
Guide
This park was really nice. We stayed an extra week because we were so comfortable.
GuideNice area with good views lots to hike. Can get loud near the rec sites and on weekends it can be hard to find a spot. Overall pretty good for a one night stay
LegendThis is a good spot if you just need to stop for the night. It's a great alternative to a truck stop or a Walmart because a) apparently there's an ordinance and Vegas Walmarts don't allow overnight parking and b) it's so quiet here / no idling trucks all night.
This appears to be a popular spot for dirt bikers to come and play as well. There was a small group that parked here and went off to ride, then zoomed back and zipped around the hills and jumps in this spot before packing up and going home.
One other camper stayed the night here when we stayed here. Plenty of space for people to spread out and there's room for many campers and for large rigs.
This spot is ideal because it's easy access from the freeway and yet it's far away enough and blocked by a little hill, so you don't get the loud freeway noise (you do hear it, but it's not at all bothersome). Access from the freeway is doable for most rigs, just take it slow as there are some ruts and dips. It's .4 miles from the freeway to this spot.
Google maps doesn't seem to recognize the dirt road that will lead you straight from the freeway to this spot and will try and take you along a more roundabout path. Check satellite view and you will see where to get off the freeway.
Good cell service here as well.
RangerWide, level spaces with bushes in between. Lots of amenities including rec room, playground, dog area, and mini golf. Very friendly staff. Close to town but in a quiet neighborhood.
ScoutMy trailer is a 31 ft tt somewhat windy but trees break up the wind. 24 a night, 12 with senior access. Decent size sites, clean bathroom showers. Verizon available but minimal Internet. Would come back. People stay up to 30 days.
ScoutVery well maintained bathrooms. Nice spacing throughout the sites.
