Wow, this place was clean! Has running water and flushing toilets. The bathrooms are event heated!! Has water spouts everywhere. First come first serve. $20 a night. They even have a fancy machine to pay with Apple Pay at station. All campsite are very spread out. Very accessible friendly! Tables are more than 100 years old! I’d stay here again!
Indian Well Campground is a bargain. $10 a night camping, if you have a senior pass it's $5 a night. Camp is clean, and near the visitor center for the park. No power available except for receptacle in restrooms. Flush toilets, no showers but water readily available by freeze free faucets with pump type handle. Fire rings at each site with many having room to park smaller trailers or RVs. Bring firewood, as not much available anywhere. Camp host is a sweetheart, great folks all around. Camp is nice, clean, quiet, with some, but minimal shade. We brought easy up shades and a gas bbq with us! Amphitheater with star talks, and junior ranger program. The night sky is amazing here and it feels you can reach up and touch the stars! We even witnessed UFOs! Lots and lots of caves to explore too! We had an amazing stay!
This campground is clean and well maintained. There are flush toilets and water pumps throughout. Each site has a sturdy campfire ring with grill and a picnic table. Even the smallest sites are large enough for a roomy family tent, and many of the sites can support multiple tents. More than half of the sites have pull-alongside parking for RVs or vehicles that are towing. There are limited sites that are ADA accessible, and limited sites with raised platforms on which to pitch a tent. The visitor center is a 0.2 mile walk from the campground, and there is an amphitheater for educational events during the summer months.
Early October. Arrived Thursday night from the south…come earlier. We had to brake constantly to avoid killing dozens of little mice crossing the road 😭 Spent 2 nights camping at the Indian wells campground. - $10/night, first come first serve! There are 2(?) sites with an elevated platform for the tent, which I chose to avoid potential night mice. - The night sky really is amazing! Don’t even have to look up because they just surround you completely. - Bathrooms are neat, bring soap! - You can collect firewood in the National forest, not within the monument park area. Didn’t see anyone selling in the area. - HELLA BUGS Jesus Christ. I stayed up from bugs slapping the tent from all sides. Fill your window wiping fluid to the max. - Very brave deer who are willing to get close. Saw our camp neighbors shoo them off twice because they were pawing at stuff. Tidy up your camp area/table before bed.
If they had showers there this would be a definite five! The entire park has burned but doesn't look totally razed down to the dirt however most all the trees are dead and only grasses and flowers are coming up. The campground does not sell any firewood right now, so bring your own!
We loved this campground. It felt very isolated and peaceful, and the landscape and views were incredible. We stayed in Spot 6 which fit our 25ft RV perfectly, was situated away from other campsites and offered some of the best views. It is first come, first served and it was ~1/3 filled in early May. The caving is great here too. We were able to drive our RV to the different spots and go through 6 caves in one day. I highly recommend this campground and Lava Beds for caving!
