This was a wonderful option for dispersed camping along my journey through the high desert region. I felt like I'd discovered a rare gem full of gorgeous scenery and serenity. The nine sites on the loop offered a variety of settings, and I got there early enough to have a good choice. There are wonderful little rock-lined trails that take you to the best overlooks of Angel Peak. There are vault toilets, though I don't recommend camping near one as the odor is noticeable during the night. Also, you may want to choose a spot not so close to adjoining ones as I made the mistake of being near others, and they partied and played music late into the night, making it difficult to sleep. You'll need to pack out your trash as there are no dumpsters on site. It's a 6-mile drive back from the main road, and at times it's very rough, but it's doable in any car in my opinion. Overall, this is a place well worth the visit, and it is FREE.

The best view of campground I have ever been. Have restroom but no water. Free, nice sunset, short easy morning trails, wild flowers, full of free dead dry trees for fire Be careful when you hike to the rock. It is very dangerous because it is almost broken from the bottom

Amazing views! Free camping! Two pit toilets service approximately eight sites. Most sites are only van or small MH friendly. While two sites at top, best spots, will accommodate larger rigs/trailers. One star removed for the six miles of washboard, rutted and muddy road to campground. Allow up to 30 minutes of travel time if you are pulling a trailer or driving a larger RV.
