Black Rock Equestrian Campground - Joshua Tree

Open sites, but easy and convenient to start your journey into Joshua Tree

Nice sites, each with a fire ring and picnic table however these are very open sites (which is just like most of the climber sites). This location is nice in that it does have full restrooms and water (which aren't present at the interior sites). Not too far from some decent easy treks into the national park (try the High View Loop for some great views of the surrounding area). While the campground is technically in that National park you can not get to any of the other scenic sites directly and have to drive back through the city and back in through one of the main entrances. Which means if you need anything you're closer to civilization than you are anywhere else in the park, but this also detracts a little from the remoteness of the park. That being said, you will want to try and either initially find your site or get a map of the campground before you arrive as there is no lights in the campground and the markers are difficult to distinguish in the dark. Overall a good campground.
