    Once the sun drops, you'll be treated to a brilliant a night sky. No overhanging trees to block your view; no city lights to wash it out. If there's any park that was made for sleeping under the stars, this is it.

    This is the most popular site for climbers. This area has a high concentration of qualtiy routes that you could actually stay there for a week and never leave the campground. Rare to find a spot on weekends (during climbing season). They actually said that this this JT's version of Yosemite's Camp 4.

    No water. Chemical Toilets. Tables. BBQ/Fire pit. First come first serve. No fee

    Heading back to the campground
    by PA2AKgirl
    We camped in one of the campsites, but I can't recall which one that was now. I know it was nice but it was definitely a popular choice--it was June, technically the "off season" and there were a lot of people here. Perhaps because it had running water and some of the other sites didn't The other sites that don't are free.

    Sleeping out by the Joshua Tree:) I really like this thing:)

    • There are nine campgrounds where you can camp in Joshua Tree National Park. You can also camp in the backcountry if you obtain a permit (contact the Parks Department).

    The only campgrounds with water and flush toilets are Black Rock Canyon and Cottonwood. Every campground features picnic tables and fireplaces.

    For reservations at Black Rock Canyon and other campground sites, call 800-365-2267.

    Details on some of the camping areas:

    Black Rock Canyon - 100 sites, water and flush toilets, fire rings, close to Black Rock Springs and Eureka Peak trails. Fee $10.

    Cottonwood - 62 sites, water and flush toilets, a good tent site; it can be crowded on weekends. Fee $10, $15/group.

    Indian Cove - 107 sites, unusual setting surrounded by rock formations. Fee $15-$30/group.

    Circle C Lodge, 29 Palms: Just what we wanted.

    I found this Lodge on the internet several years ago but our California visit that year did not include 29 Palms. My brother went on a separate visit and found it without any prompting from me and was very impressed, so when we all went to Joshua Tree National Park together Circle C was our first choice for accommodation. We were 3 couples - me my younger brother abd sister and our respective spouses. My sister & her husband havelived in North America for over 40 years.
    We each had a very large room (all American hotel/Lodge Rooms seem like ballrooms in comparison with European Hotel rooms.)

    There were two large beds , sofas and chairs, a small fitted kitchen diner and the rear doors opened onto the gardens and pool area - all kept in beautiful condition.

    At the far end of the pool was the reception office and the communal room in which a self-service breakfast was served and included in the price. Simple but adequate.

    At the end of the pool nearest to our rooms, set into a granite wall, there was a built in BBQ and tables and chairs for out door dining.

    Around the pool there were plenty of loungers and chairs - and a plunge pool. The main pool was heated - a little too much for 6 hardy Brits!

    Excellent accommodation in clean and well tended surroundings. A very relaxed atmosphere to come and go as you please. Friendly Hosts and staff. We would ceratinly return if going that way again.
    This was a couple of years ago and I cannot remember what we paid but it struck us as not just inexpensive but remarkably good value for money.

    Joshua Tree has a number of campgrounds - two with water and the rest without. We had no trouble getting a campsite. Three of the campgrounds will take reservations.

    Prices range from $95 to $135, depending on what cottage you stay in. Weekend prices are higher. Everything is spelled out on the website.

    We stayed in Tidy Tips, a two room adobe with one queen bed, and a bunk-bed consisting of one double with a single above. It was perfect for my trip with my father. There is an electric heater in the room with the bunk-bed and a working fireplace in the main room. There is a small TV with the full gambit of cable stations, save pay movie stations, and there is, intentionally, NO PHONE. Who needs one when you are escaping life. There is a pool outside the bar/restaraunt, which I didn't use, it being January. There are so much wonderful things about this place -- the people make you feel at home. You forget about everything except nature and whatever is going on around you at that moment with the person you are with.

    The motel

    They boasted the lowest price and lived up to it. When I told them of a place down the street who was about the same price as them, they knocked off couple dollars for me.

    The motel was newly renovated and was clean. There was a microwave and fridge in each room. A 7-11 was just down the street, so cheap mini-mart eats was possible.

    The only, minor, pitfall was that they didn't service the rooms between stays.

    Bring your own tent like this one. It's an REI Clipper designed to accomodate 2 people.

    Campsite is close to some nice rock formations. There's chemical toilets.

    • The park has nine established first-come-fist-served campgrounds, all in the northwest except for one at Cottonwood. Only two have water, but the others are free. There are good motels and decent restaurants in Twentynine Palms.
