Beautiful Campground! Stunning sunsets and sunrises paint the sky with vibrant hues, making each day feel magical. The unique rock formations add a distinctive charm, and the clear night skies create an unforgettable stargazing experience. Highly recommended!
Belle is a first-come campground one of two like that. I got there early 1 pm and by 3 pm it was full. The only hassle is you have to drive to an entrance gate and pay, card only no cash. I was enjoying the beauty and quiet but woke up Sunday morning to a blowing wind, ugh.
Spent a beautiful night at Belle Campground…incredible sunsets and sunrises, the stars are stunning and beautiful rock formations. I’d recommend running into the dessert and climb some rocks and get just a little bit lost. Very cool hearing the calls of the coyote at night, can’t wait to go back
Wish the camp sites weren't basically on top of one another, had some extremely rude camp neighbors that kept wandering through our site and literally just decided to screw around in our campsite in the middle of the night. Like the whole point of camping is to enjoy the wilderness and be alone and instead we had people just wandering INTO our camp and bothering us and some annoying lady and her kid blasting music. Literally trash spots and way not worth the psychotic amount they charge.
Great place to camp! Tons of large rocks that provide a neat view and privacy between sites. Small, and super popular right now (Feb 2021). If you aren't circling the site as people are waking up, you likely won't get a spot. However, we were just car camping so we found a site with one other person and were able to join their site thanks to their goodwill. Clean pit toilets, otherwise no facilities here.
