Please, no more than 6 people may camp in one X, Y or Z gear rental accommodation without prior arrangement.

We named our Joshua Tree glamping gear rental service Dirtbag Campground because the term dirtbag has come to mean people leading simple lives closely connected to nature, often connected to climbing or other dirt sports. Pets are welcome for no additional fee – just please be sure to let us know before hand! If you have any questions, please let us know! We are available 24/7 while guests are using our gear.

We also rent camping gear to go as well as party rentals in all of Southern California! Note that tents and sleeping bags are not included in this listing.

Our camping locations have beautiful views and are close to Joshua Tree National Park – about 6 miles away. There are other campers in the area, but we space our sites 30 to 40 yards from other campers for some privacy and elbow room. A shared porta-potty – which we keep nice and clean – and wash station are available for use as well as some yard games such as corn hole and boccie ball. Car, van and RV camping is welcome. We provide propane for about 6 or 7 hours of use with the fire pit and grill each day booked. Since the propane is included and restocked daily, our camp sites are quite economical since you don’t need to be burning expensive wood bundles. Although the area has a remote feel, stores and amenities are close by, also about 6 miles to the nearest convenience store/gas station, and about 12 miles to the nearest grocery store. Restaurants and shops are also just about 6 miles away. We provide 24/7 phone support while you are camping with us.

The Coyote Dry Lake-Bed, where we setup, has been a recreating public land use area for decades. Please respect our shared natural lands and follow Leave No Trace principles. The roads can be washed out or deeply rutted, so make sure to follow the directions we send upon booking closely. Access to the sites we chose will accommodate almost any vehicle.

Joshua Tree National Park lies within a few hours drive of several major metropolitan areas. The park is located about 140 miles east of Los Angeles, 175 miles northeast of San Diego, 215 miles southwest of Las Vegas, Nevada, and 222 miles west of Phoenix, Arizona. Please doo not rely on GPS directions to navigate to our campground as vehicle navigation systems sometimes try to route you onto backcountry dirt roads with ruts or soft sand that may be impassable to your vehicle. You can approach Joshua Tree from Interstate 10 or California Highway 62 (the Twentynine Palms Highway). The closest airport is in Palm Springs. There is no public transportation to the park. There are three park entrance stations: • The West Entrance is located five miles south of the junction of Highway 62 and Park Boulevard at Joshua Tree Village. • The North Entrance is in Twentynine Palms, three miles south of the junction of Highway 62 and Utah Trail. • The South Entrance near Cottonwood Spring is an access point along Interstate 10, 25 miles east of Indio.

We named our Joshua Tree camping and glamping gear rental service Dirtbag Campground because the term dirtbag has come to mean people leading simple lives closely connected to nature, often connected to climbing or other dirt sports. Pets are welcome for no additional fee – just please be sure to let us know before hand! If you have any questions, please let us know!

We’re looking forward to hosting you!
