Camping in City of Rocks National Reserve
City of Rocks has approximately 50 camping sites that are spread out within the park, along the main road. Most of them feel quite seculded as they are nestled among the trees and large boulders of the park. Camping is only allowed in designated areas and a $12 fee is charged per night for each camping site used. Each site is limited to eight people and one vehicle, there is an extra $8 / night charge for a second vehicle. Camp sites can be reserved online and reservations are recommended during the weekends when the sites fill up quickly. Otherwise, you can pay for your camp site at the Ranger station, located east of the park in Almo.
The campsites are primitive, facilities include picnic tables, bbq grills and fire rings. There are pit toilets scattered about the sites, all within walking distance but some of the more secluded walk-in sites may be a few minute walk away. There are two fresh water wells within the park.
There are no showers in the park. The nearest showers are at the General Store in nearby Almo ($4 for a shower and $0.50 for a towel rental). Another pleasant option is to visit the new Durfee Hot Springs in Almo where you can combine a shower with a hot water soak.
Garbage bins are located near the pit toilets within the park.
