    Gorgeous facility with wide-spaced sites and clear sight lines to the gorgeous mountains. Stayed just one night, but with the recent rain it's a gorgeous scene there. Friendly ranger and nice running water bathrooms with showers! Will definitely come back!

    This campground is a secret gem and saved my group this weekend. This weekend my group of 4 we're planning on staying at Silverwood but due to Covid our reservation was mixed up. We were directed to Mojave River Fork Campground and I was SO glad we were. This location is only 15 mins from Silverwood Lake and much cheaper. Silverwood cost $54 for 1 night (Sunday-Monday) and Mojave River Fork Campground was $60 for 2 nights (Friday-Sunday). We showed up and Christian the park ranger was SO kind and helpful! He gave us a list of 8 camping spots that were reserved (which I guess you can do online or via phone) but we were able to pick any other one. RV camping was on one side and the other was all tent camping. We drove around the camping spots a few times to pick the one that suited us best. We had a camping spot with plenty of open space and no one close to us. We had a fire pit/grill, water spout, and our own bathroom and beautiful views of the mountains. Christian was kind enough to help us clean up some broken glass in our area when we arrived. He cleaned the restrooms every morning AND kindly checked in on us to make sure we were doing ok. What an angel. A few additional notes: -It was super windy so make sure to bring stakes or weights. -We heard coyotes howling nearby both nights. -The picnic tables are pretty worn, bring a table cloth or folding table if possible. -I saw on another comment that there were showers, we didn't see them and didn't have any near us but it doesn't mean they weren't there. -Some campground spots seem to be more exposed than others. -We also hiked in the area behind our camoground.

    Spent Columbus Day weekend here and the camping are with hookups was almost empty, only us and 4 other campers. Great place to hike around with children and the roads are good for bikes, but not for scooters or skateboards. Trash cans were emptied daily and bathrooms were clean and open.

    Our tent set up with solar lights and a rug at the enterance

    Love the campground and it's personnel. Very quiet and very clean. Only down side not much to do other than hiking. Will stay there again.

    Is there water?

    Not in the immediate area. There are creeks in the nearby mountains

    This is an old park, and you can tell because there is some wear and tear everywhere, but it has…read moreheart and there are a lot of fun things to do here. Playground: There is a pretty big playground for kids here, complete with slides, swings, ramps, playhouse -- the whole shebang. The ground is covered with wood chips, not sand, so that's nice. Pool: There's a pool area, with a big pool and a pool for little ones. Directly outside the pool is a cluster of picnic benches. Baseball field: The neat thing about this baseball field is that it's near a block of trees and grass, so you could watch the game while staying out of the hot sun. Snack bar: pretty self-explanatory. It's not open all the time -- only for baseball games and other special events. Tennis courts: The courts are lighted so you can beat the heat and play at night! Apparently, there's also a dog park and skate plaza here somewhere, but I haven't come across either one. That doesn't mean they don't exist, it just means I need to look harder next time I visit!

    There's lots of parking. There's two playgrounds: one for toddlers and one for older kids. There's…read moretwo baby swings, two kinds of swings I've never seen before elsewhere, and two regular swings. The swings were pretty high up. I'm only four foot nine so I couldn't lift my kids into the first 4 swings. The park has nice little details like a roundabout, a xylophone and rock climbing. There's a lot of benches and tables for the parents to watch their kids nearby. One thing I will say, the park is super popular and it was very packed. All the kids we encountered were so sweet and kind towards each other. It was really nice seeing everyone get along and playing together. There's an office, a baseball field and bathrooms. There's also an indoor pool but it was currently closed. Very nice park.

It's such a gem to have in the area…read more There's space for children to play, and open space for throwing frisbees, or having a picnic, or reading a book. Plenty of space to walk your dog. There's at least two lakes that I've seen and numerous hiking trails several of which I've enjoyed. Some people like to fish, I'm not sure which type of fish are in the waters. There's also horse trails and bike trails. Most of the trails are accessible whether you have a motorized scooter, cane, or wheelchair, you can enjoy the nature trails. There's a variety of different wildlife and birds. A great place to bird watch. There's cows nearby. I love cows! There's clean restrooms, but they never have soap. There's overnight camping available and space to keep horses, not sure if it's for overnight horse lodging. I'm grateful for the Regional Park card they offer to veterans. That's a huge benefit and I appreciate it. I recently discovered the Celeste De Blasis Memorial Garden which was so beautiful it made me emotional. It's nice to see things like that in this area. This is a beautiful park and one of my favorite parks to visit. It's open daily from 7:30 am to 7pm.

There is a fee per day/per car ($15 as of this writing), so plan accordingly. While I didn't camp, I did see some stunning campsites right next to the water and in beautiful condition. Lots of great hiking spots, lots of folks fishing and overall a wonderful atmosphere. There's even a Frisbee golf course. Very clean and well-maintained. Parking is included in the entrance fee. Always check the website https://parks.sbcounty.gov/park/mojave-narrows-regional-park/ for current regulations and fees. Enjoy!

The hike back from the hot springs is no joke, especially on a hot day if it gets to 80s. It is nonstop uphill for about 1.5 to 2 hours depending on your speed. Still gorgeous.

Micheal doesn't do any work obviously just sits there all day and charges as much as he can to park on his crappy piece of mud.... jackass. The trail sucks and the hot springs is nasty. And you might get hurt on this trail it's not even a trail. He makes it very clear that you will get lost at the beginning. yea because he doesn't maintain his trail or whatever he's up there claiming to be doing all day long everyday. Sure, buddy. Jackass. He claims to have shot one of his tweaker neighbors too, so that tells you what kind of guy he his right there telling a stranger you shot a tweaker. Real nice jackass. Then he tells you the tweakers will charge you 30 bucks a head to use their entrance and scams you outta 20 bucks instead, when his sign said $5 bucks a head, and 10 for overnight, yea buddy thanks for overcharging me too, jackass. No, I will not be coming back again just because of you.
