JoeIda Campground
Reviewed Oct. 7, 2023

Looks to be Great for Tents and Vans

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.
Price 2023: $25 per night Usage during visit: Full on Labor Day weekend . Site Privacy: EXCELLENT. One site that I saw, I’d downgrade to good! Enjoy. Site Spacing: EXCELLENT Site surface: Not surfaced. Reservations: Yes Campground Noise: Ideally quiet.
Road Noise: 1 mile from the highway.
Through Traffic in campground: No reason for through traffic here. Electric Hookup: No Sewer Hookup: No Dump Station: I did not see one. Potable Water Available: New hand pump. Bathroom: New and very clean pit toilet. Showers: No Pull Throughs: A couple Cell Service (AT&T): Nope. Setting: In a forest with thick understory offering GREAT privacy for each site. Weather: Nice and Sunny on the second day of September. Bugs: I have experienced moderate mosquitoes in the after following a dip in temperatures. With increase in temp, they are becoming a bit more numerous. Solar: No Host: I did not see one. Rig size: Keep it under 25’ Id say. Check their website Sites: Most everyone is superb.
