Stunning, Peaceful a good amenities
Each site is spacious enough with some divider. Clean bathroom and running water. You can drive down a bit to enjoy the beautiful Colorado river. Pay by envelope, Cash or credit card where you write CC information on it. There were 4-5 RVs when we arrived but not crowded as there are plenty available lot. We recommend this site if you are closed by.
Beautiful views
We loved this campground! Visited in late February and there were probably only 6 other vehicles camped here. Gorgeous views of the Colorado River and you can hear the river from the camp grounds! One of the bathrooms were under construction while we were there which was fine considering only a few people where there and there was a second 1. First come first serve. $20, pay in an envelope, cash or card.
Great views of the Colorado River
General: 51-site campground, no reservations. We arrived just before noon on a Thursday in mid-April and had our choice of sites but by early evening, the campground was full. No hookups.
Site Quality: All sites are gravel; some are pull-through, some back-in but not all are level. Sites 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20 are designated as group sites. Sites 2, 4, 6, 24, 26, and 28 have the same layout (parallel parking for vehicles and shared picnic table pavilion but are not labeled as group sites. Since you cannot make reservations, best to drive around to figure out what will work best for you. A picnic table and fire pit are at each site. Some tables are covered; ours in site 41 was not covered and while we did not need it for sun protection, we could have used it to shield us from the wind. (It was so windy that we were not able to cook/eat outside).
Bathhouse: Two located in the campground but only the upper one was open. Basic but clean. Three stalls, two sinks and while there was soap, there was no hand dryer or paper towels, and aside from a weird red light that went on as I was leaving, there is no light at night so plan accordingly. There are no showers; showers, laundry, and other services are available at the Marble Canyon Lodge and Trading Post, about five miles away.
Activities: Several hikes but not from the campground. Paria Beach is an easy walk downhill and there is a trail to “Secret Beach” from there but once you reach the end of the trail, you cannot (easily) access the beach. Fishing requires a license. 15 miles of smooth water is open to boaters between Lee’s Ferry and Glen Canyon Dam.
Despite the windy conditions, this was a nice overnight for us and the price was right ($10 with senior pass/$20 without)
