Easy Desert Camping in a NP
Unfortunately did not get to spend a lot of time on this campsite as we just used it as an overnight stop on a road trip out to Utah, but we did enjoy the site a lot. Reservations filled up about a month in advance, but several of the sites were not occupied. Water was a little tricky to find at first because it was tucked next to a campsite that had an RV parked out front.
Wildflowers were blooming all around in mid-spring. Nights were cool but not too cold, and heat during the day wasn't too bad yet in the spring. There were several hikes available near the campsite.
Easy access to the 10 freeway made this a great road trip stop but with the added benefit of experiencing a national park.
