We made reservations back last fall hence the inexpensive price, plus we used our Interagency Pass and received a discount. The prices for the somewhat newly installed Full Hook-Ups (FHU) at Furnace Creek Campground have increased and the sites today cost quite a bit more than when we made the

Campground: Calico Ghost Town Location: Calico, California Site: A-17 Cost: $37.50 Services: FHU Comments: Fine place for doing laundry and grocery shopping but a bit crowded and busy with locals and their off-roading and lots of little parties. The site was very narrow and a bit short but we managed.

We really like Mojave National Preserve. There are two campgrounds, Hole-In-The-Wall and Mid Hills. Hole-In-The-Wall can easily fit big rigs but Mid Hills tends to be more for tenters. A small RV or camper can easily fit there though. And we found some “OH SO GREAT” boondocking spots but know

To get here you drive north from Wenden, Arizona on Alamo Rd, there is one main way in and one way out. There are some other roads such as Wickenburg Rd but we are not sure if they are paved or not. We drove the Salome Hwy off of I-10
