    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

    A great place to take your family for some exercise and fresh air. I usually ride my ebike on this…read morepath/trailhead beginning on Yucca Loma bridge near Spring Valley Lake. This path takes you to lower campus of VVC in one direction towards Bear Valley Road and you will be facing the new Aldi shopping center at the end of the trail. On the Victorville side expect to see more shaded areas due to the homes of SVL right next to the path. It is paved and divided path that bikes and pedestrians to enjoy. There are no restrooms or anything on this path. At the end of the path there are bike pumps/tools/air if you need it. This is where most people park entering through Fish Hatchery Road and parking unloading their bikes or beginning there walk/run. Parking is limited in this area, but if it gets busy people park in the dirt. Also note there are poop bags if you bring your furry one. Be sure to grab a couple before you start your run/walk. Nobody wants to see a pile of poop or step on it. Pick up after your pet. What most people don't know is this path continues in Apple Valley however you must go east on Bear Valley over the bridge then cross the street to the Jess Ranch shopping center. The path again begins towards the Cinemark side of the shopping center. This path takes you again along the Mojave Riverbed behind the Jess Ranch planned community. On the AV side there are benches ever so often if you need to take a breather. It would be great if they could connect it somehow with some pedestrian bridge or something over Bear Valley, but who knows if that will ever happen lol. As others have mentioned if you head back along the path towards Apple Valley and Yucca Loma bridge the path splits and one takes you under the bridge into Mojave Narrows. It is great ride into Mojave Narrows in a brisk morning. I wouldn't do a walk alone at sunset or night as Mojave Narrows and the path itself is very heavy with vegetation and who knows who is lurking in there. While biking at night I see mom's pushing their stroller on there self phone not aware of their surroundings and always makes me a little anxious thinking someone could harm them, so I always keep an eye out when I'm on the path The path ends in Mojave Narrows and makes a u-turn and leads you back in the other direction. It the morning you see lots of fisherman and families out by the water. Couple things to note: The path is long, if you bring your kids, bike, etc be prepared with water and be prepared to carry your young kid if they say they are tired. lol. Don't go biking, walking or whatever alone where you could put yourself in danger. If you go during the day or when weather is warm there are a lot of tiny bugs. They will get in your face, mouth, etc if you are biking. Where some sunglasses and a mouth covering or you will get a mouthful of them in your face. It is extremely hot in the summer during the day. So again bring water and dress for the weather.

    Ugly walk. View of drainage area and people's back yards. Homeless camps and creeps along the way.read more
