Loved this hike. It's not too strenuous unless you do it in midday sun. Bring lots of water (especially on a sunny day, even in winter). It's such a treat to see an oasis. The palms are amazing. There was a small trickle of water and a few tiny pools when I went. There's lots of opportunity for scrambling up the mountain beyond the palms. Magnificent views of the desert, valley, and mountains beyond.
Was fun, wish COVID came back cuz other campers were sus. Great view, cactus everywhere (your shoes, socks, bag, skin).
Lovely, free "dry" camping. Pit toilet is well maintained. Several short trails to different palm groves - one quite large with 80+ trees. Roads are soft sand, so can be a concern for 2 wheel drive vehicles, but I was able to get our 25' RV in with just one bit of tire digging.
First come camping. Pay with cash or check in drop box. Easy access for most cars. No amenities
This is a great little campground with views looking over the valley. There are lots of interesting desert plants and trails that lead to palm groves. No facilities - just a nice clean outhouse.
