To meet this increase in customer demand and use, JOTR proposes a campground fee increase to hire additional park staff to maintain high visitor satisfaction. Hiring additional park staff allows us to enhance our customer support and have a greater presence in campgrounds to better address common campground issues such as: campground noise complaints; unattended food; trash disposal; graffiti; and campsite poaching.
JOTR proposes to increase fees $5/night making the cost of each campground as follows:
Current and Proposed
Cottonwood: ............................$25 to $30
Cottonwood Dump Station: .....$5 to $10
White Tank: .............................$15 to $20
Belle: ......................................$15 to $20
Jumbo Rocks: .........................$20 to $25
Ryan: ......................................$20 to $25
Hidden Valley: .........................$15 to $20
Black Rock: .............................$25 to $30
Black Rock Dump Station: ......$5 to $10
Black Rock Equestrian: ..........$20 to $25
Indian Cove: ...........................$25 to $30
If enacted the proposed fee increases is estimated to take effect in October 2021 and would appear on www.recreation.gov as the published rate.
Please provide us with any comments you may have regarding this proposed rate increase. Following public review and comment, Joshua Tree National Park Superintendent will decide whether to implement the fee increase as described above.
