Memorable Experience!
Our experience at Joshua Tree Lake was unforgettable! Paul was absolutely amazing; he helped us set up our tent and made us feel so welcome. We also want to thank Shiley (or Shaley—sorry if I’m mispronouncing it!) for being so kind and helpful throughout our stay. This was my first time camping and my husband’s first time camping as an adult, and we’re already looking forward to coming back. We also left four tent stakes on the bench; I hope Paul found them! Thank you again for such a memorable experience!

Great stay, but windy.
The hosts were great. It’s a very exposed area and the wind was active. I may have had a bad draw and the regular showers were down. They had outdoor showers and they were good. It’s very open- know that. The staff were absolutely wonderful.
