Summary
No reservations—first-come, first-served only. There’s a nightly fee (typically $20), but no permits required. Amenities include pit toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and nearby potable water (not always on-site). RVs are allowed, but there are no hookups. The vibe is peaceful, with stunning desert views and easy access to hiking, climbing, and biking trails like the Portal Trail. Best visited in spring or fall for mild weather and fewer crowds. Great for those seeking a serene, rustic experience.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
