Excellent and peacful campsite. Only 3 places with table and fire pit, but there was more room in the parking. Clean pit toilet, no other amenities, no water. No noise from highway, feels perfectly detached from the rest of the world. Access road is unpaved and excellent, wide, perfectly flat and in better condition than many paved roads. Area is surrounded by Joshua trees and in nearby hills there are plenty of hiking and OHV trails. It can get windy, as the campground and trailhead are located in large, wide valley.
This was a great OHV stop, the campground has 4 spots, fire pit with grate, large picnic table with shade structure, clean pit toilets, quiet, amazing sunsets, birds singing, cool weather. Maintained dirt road. The riding is great also!
I think the BLM should implement a rule that if you do not possess an OHV then you can only stay at OHV trailhead campgrounds for 24 hours. I have been to 3 different ohv campgrounds in Nevada in the past week and 2 out of 3 were full of full time rv'ers with no OHV's and no reason to be camping at ohv trailhead campgrounds. I get needing a place to stop for the night, been there but LIVING at the ohv campgrounds for 2 weeks with no intention of using the trails is ridiculous. People like myself travel long distances (Michigan) to enjoy these trails only to get there and have to leave directly because the campground is full of people living there.
Stayed here late September. The entire campground was overrun with tumbleweeds. I spent two hours with a hatchet and shovel cleaning them out of one of the table/shade structure areas. As an added bonus, I found out that I'm allergic to tumbleweed since my arms and legs were covered with itchy welts for days.
What an Amazing adventure here we've been test driving the new Honda Talon 4 seater. Wow that machine is Awesome!
