This spot has gotten too popular.
It is on private property, and access to the lower level is no longer available, as is camping on top. Sadly, over the summer, several groups abused the privilege, by leaving garbage and mess for others. If you...

"Lovely desert refuge"
This is a very underused site. In the summer it is very hot and can be infested by huge horse flies, but in winter it is a treat - cooler and no flies. The remnants of the Mojave River flow past and collect in small pools, where the iconic Bighorn...

"One of the best scenic sites anywhere"
As you drive along the Farwell Canyon Forest Rd, near KM 21, there is a side loop on the north side, just west of the large bridge. This is the access road to the campsites. There are 2 separate areas to camp. The upper zone has a narrow trail...

"Hidden gem on the way to Yuma"
This place is predominantly geared to long term snowbirds who stay several months. It has a large social hall, showers, laundry and all that you would want except a store. I have used it several times, pitching the tent in a more remote section,...

"One of my all time favourite camping places"
This is a fantastic place but you need to plan when to go & leave. High tides can make both very dodgy, as large portions of the beach can be swamped with tidal surge. Rangers will advise best & worst time. Also, it can be a gong show on holidays...

"Quiet & Private"
I stayed here in Jan 2019 while viewing the Whooping Cranes.
It was great to see that most of the big trees survived Hurricane Harvey. I had a lovely private tent site in a wooded loop away from the big rigs, and used it as a base camp while...

"Welcome to Heaven"
I stayed here twice in Jan 2018 & 2019. It was an amazing experience to be on a wild beach where the only noises are the birds and surf. I found an alcove where I could pitch my tent away from the wind, but that was not a problem.
There is fresh...

Lovely quiet RV/Campground off the main drag. Staff were very helpful & friendly. Hot showers & laundry.
I was tent camping and had a shady grassed area next to shower house. Even a spot to plug in my cooler to keep the beer cold.
Great...

This is a very basic spot for the Dune Buggy crowd. The area is glorious desert, but if you want a quiet zone - this is not for you. This is an even bigger issue during holiday periods.
There are washrooms, but not much else.

I was looking to camp at Navy Beach, but Rangers were a deterrent, so I headed east on Hwy 120 for 3 miles to the 7000 ft elevation sign, where there is plenty of open land (BLM maybe). Lots of quiet spaces, where tenting is free - dispersed...
