Afton Canyon Campground is one of the hidden gems for spring and fall camping in the Mojave desert. The campground is located 4 miles from I-15 down a dirt road. The dirt road is easily accessed with any type of car. The campground is a first come first service basis and cost $6 a night. I believe there are 20 campsites. 

There are train tracks located next to the campground but the train doesn't run that much. I think I saw 4 trains in a 24 hour period. 

The campsite is located along the only section of the Mojave River that is above ground. It's a great place to explore the desert landscape.
