Safe Place For A Night Or Two
We stayed her two years ago and felt comfortable, so we are back for another night. Lots of improvements since 2020. I get why they rope off the Petroglyph rocks - too many people who don’t care and would think nothing about ruining it. You see it all the time.

Well Worth The Drive
Spent 2 nights here. Petroglyphs were cool, but you can't get up to them; only walk around the hill they are on. This dropped rating from 5 stars to 4. You can see them, but not up close. We have been at other BLM petroglyphs that you can get right up and personal with them. Camp sites are level gravel, and huge, w/ metal fire ring and concrete picnic table. Very dark nights for awesome star gazing. Only 2 vault toilets, but most campers are RVs who can use their own (like us), so not really a problem. A small rig or tenter will want to get closer. If you're camping no extra charge for petroglyphs. 1-2 bars AT&T. $8/nite, $4 with senior pass. Close to site of the Oatman massacre, which I'd recommend. Look it up.

Grumpy Camp Host
Generators only allowed 8am to 8 pm. 2 pit toilets for 40 + sites. And no water or dump in area. But it would be quiet and dark. Petroglyph were worth the drive out. There is a 2$ charge for looking at it petroglyphs.

In the middle of nowhere, fun to see the petroglyphs. The campground has no shade, is mostly level with pit toilets, but for $8 one can deal
