Fishing, hiking, and OHV riding are all within reach at Beehives Campground, a drive-in site along Route 89 inside Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. The campground sits in open desert terrain with sightlines toward Lake Powell and the surrounding canyon landscape, though the highway runs between the sites and the water, which means traffic noise is a consistent presence, particularly in warmer months when visitation picks up.
The layout is compact. As of early 2026, the campground has expanded from its original six sites to 21, arranged around a circular gravel area. Sites are level and include picnic tables and fire rings. Vault toilets and a dumpster are on-site, but there is no water hookup, so campers need to bring their own. Cell coverage is strong, with multiple reviewers reporting five-bar 5G signal. Geraldine G. notes it is "dark enough to watch the stars," which holds true given the open sky above the site. Tent campers should know the ground is rocky and compacted, making stake placement difficult.
At $14 per night ($7 with a senior pass), the fee is self-pay via envelope. The stay limit is three consecutive nights. Sites fill by late afternoon on weekdays in spring and summer, so arriving before midday is advisable. Big rigs have no trouble here. Eric W. pulled in a 46-foot fifth wheel without issue and found the entry and exit straightforward for any size rig.
The campground works best as a functional base for exploring the Page area rather than a destination in itself. Nearby attractions include the Glen Canyon Dam Bridge Outlook, about a mile east, and Grandview Inn a short distance further. Campers who want quick access to campsites near Page with minimal planning overhead will find Beehives fits that purpose well.
