    Awesome Second Stay!
    Tent
    I really love staying at Wilhart Crossing campsite! This is my second stay here. The location is quiet and feels remote, even though it's an easy drive on a dirt road back to a main road. The quietness and the joshua tree forest all around the campsite is amazing! It has wonderful views; beautiful sunrises/sunsets/mountains to the west and great for stargazing! The site comes with a roomy firepit and picnic table. The site is also kept pretty clean. There's lots of dirt roads to take walks on if you want to explore the area. Overall such a beautiful space for feel like "getting away from it all". Thank you!

    A perfect spot to set up camp while visiting JTNP! A private & relaxing place to wind down after a day of hiking. The STARS are amazing and the thoughtful amenities of Picnic table & Firepit make this Hipcamp top of the line. Unfortunately we did not use the firepit due to our own wind concerns but did use our mini SOLO stove during our cookout. Be prepared for a slow drive in as the terrain is rough but we had no problem at all with our 23’ Class B+ with 2WD. Thank you sooooo much for excellent communication, explicit directions & for sharing your little bit of heaven with us. We would not hesitate to return…..W&H

    Dont waste the $$
    22 ft Class A · With pets
    Never went, huge wind storm and trip got ruined, I asked if they would reschedule or at least work some Thing out but gosh refused and kept my money, also they lied and act like your the only one camping and last minute he text and said he had another group at the same land area …so beware of that. He also told me I can leave my trailer because it may get broken into.

    This is the spot.
    25 ft Class C
    This spot was great. Felt private but close enough to everything. Dense population of Joshua Trees. Purple mountains to the east during sunset. Crazy stars at night. Flat spot for the RV. One of the few sites that allows two camping essentials: fire and dogs. I come to Joshua Tree from San Diego about once a year and will come back to this site next time.

    Great spot, very secluded in a small valley that lets you enjoy the stars unabated by light pollution. Would highly recommend and will be returning on my next trip to JT.
