Charleston LDS Monument Site

This Bureau of Land Management dispersed site functions as a parking area at the Charleston LDS Monument trailhead, providing free overnight camping for RVs and tents. The location accommodates big rigs with drive-in access and allows pets and alcohol. Cell service reaches the area.

One camper noted the spot stays quiet despite its proximity to the road, as traffic remains light. The basic setup attracts other overnight visitors, creating a sense of safety for those passing through. Campers use this as a convenient base for exploring nearby Tombstone during day trips. The site works best for travelers needing a simple overnight stop rather than an extended camping experience.

Good Free Camping

We were able to easily get our RV there and tour Tombstone during the day. Quiet…close to road but road isn’t busy. It’s basically just a parking lot at a trailhead. It will do if you are looking for a quick spot to lay your head. There were other campers…we felt safe there.
