Catch Joshua Tree campsite openings before desert weekends sell out
Camp-Now watches Joshua Tree campground cancellations, can move a matching site into your Recreation.gov cart, and texts you so you can finish checkout before the cart window closes. Camp-Now is built for campers trying to land a site in the next 30 days, when cancellations are often the only real opening left.
Jumbo Rocks, Indian Cove, and Black Rock weekends often reopen briefly and vanish before manual searchers can finish checkout.

How it works
Set your Joshua Tree target
Choose Joshua Tree and your target dates in the next 30 days, then connect your Recreation.gov account so Camp-Now can react if that opening comes back.
Camp-Now reacts when it opens
If a matching Joshua Tree site reappears, Camp-Now moves immediately instead of waiting on you to refresh at the exact right second.
You get the text and finish checkout
If the site is added to your Recreation.gov cart, you get the alert and finish the reservation before the timer runs out.
Setup takes a couple of minutes. After that, Camp-Now watches for you.

Joshua Tree openings are small-inventory and site-fit sensitive. The setup exists so Camp-Now can move during that short window while you still control the final checkout.

Camp-Now needs your connected recreation.gov account so it can react faster than a manual refresh.
No card required to start
You can create your account and begin monitoring before deciding to add a payment method.
You complete final checkout

Frequently asked questions
These answer the practical questions campers ask when deciding whether to keep searching manually or set up alerts.
Can Camp-Now watch sold-out Joshua Tree campgrounds?+
Yes. Camp-Now is built for sold-out Joshua Tree openings where cancellations can appear and disappear before most campers can react manually.
Do I still need to refresh Joshua Tree manually?+
No. Camp-Now watches for matching Joshua Tree cancellations and texts you if a site is added to your cart, removing the need to keep refreshing Recreation.gov yourself.
Does Camp-Now automatically buy the Joshua Tree reservation?+
No. Camp-Now helps you move faster by getting the site into your cart when possible, and you still complete the final checkout yourself on Recreation.gov.
What if Joshua Tree never opens for my dates?+
Watching does not require a card. Paid usage is tied to successful results, not just keeping a Joshua Tree watch active while you wait for the right opening.
Stop refreshing Joshua Tree. Start watching the desert.
If Joshua Tree is booked today, that does not mean it stays booked. The best openings often come from cancellations that do not last. Camp-Now is strongest when you are trying to save a trip inside the next 30 days.
First booked night free. No card required.
