Lot’s of reviews and photos of Sawtooth Canyon, so I’ll just quickly add my 2cents. We loved it here!! Loved parking among the boulders, loved the peace and quiet, loved the spectacular night sky, loved that it was well maintained, and loved that it was free! We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and still managed to snag a campsite ... more

Amazed to find this gem hidden off the beaten path. Everything we read was right on in regards to finding it and everything else. It was beautiful, clean (except for all the glass) with great hiking and climbing. We had planned to spend our trip at Joshua Tree after one day there the government shut down the park so we did some quick r... more

Stunning topography, very easy access off the highway. Internet/cell service was very spotty. It came and went and was site dependent for strength of signal.

We liked this place so much we came back the next weekend. In Oct the weather was perfect but I’ll bet the summers are brutal. There are a good # of spots with cement picnic tables and shade structures but they go quick. We got in on Thurs and found about half taken; everything filled up quickly on Friday. There is a ton of sport r... more

Posted up here for a week of rock climbing. Love that you can walk straight from camp to all the climbing areas. No need to drive anywhere. Super busy on weekends.

We have a class A Motorhome 38’ with tow. Road are easy to follow . We follow google map and it’s bring us here no problem. Clean, quiet. Remote from HWY noise and anything . Dry camping. Beautiful area for hiking or just chilling in nature. As soon you get off 247. It’s gravel road - take it’s slow and you will be fine .. easy in and ... more

We were lucky to find a spot during the week. There were only 4 empty ones, and we arrived early in the afternoon. Clean campground, nice site, and very quiet overnight. Cell service was great. Can’t believe this hidden gem is free!

Boondocking with a 4-door sedan. Would recommend taking highway 247. A friend tried to take a "shortcut" on Google maps and it led to a rock slide with no passage. No signage to the road pathway, just follow Google. The road is fairly bumpy, so just drive slower haha. But once arrived, its kind of hard to believe this place is free. Th... more

Supposedly theres a few hiking trails towadss the back we didnt get a chance to see but we will definitely be back on o... more

A shangrila. Overnighted midweek No one else in our vicinity. Clean site. Somewhat level. Vault toilet clean with toilet paper. We hiked/bouldered up high. Star gazed on a clear night. Good Verizon connection. 1.5 miles off Hwy247. No signage at turnoff. Used GPS; accurate. Note @16-17 miles south from Barsto... more

Aggravating washboard road leads to limited awesome looking sites full of hipsters and tourists that don’t want to pay to visit. Oh, and also pretend rock climbers. Yucky.
