Best Glamping near Kayenta, AZ

Probably one of pricier campgrounds I've been to when considering the campground fee and the Monument fee. However, worth it to see the views from the campground. Fairly clean and well maintained, I think the name has actually changed to "The View". For the most part tents and RV's were kept apart. The bathrooms were clean and it was nice to have showers to rinse off the desert sand (and my site was very sandy!). I didn't use the picnic table or fire pit as I was only staying one night, but it looked like all sites had the same set ups. The night sky would be spectacular on a clear night, but my one evening was cloudy.

Closed for 2021 (camping)

I called to inquire about rates and the very friendly woman on the phone informed me that ALL camping is closed for 2022.

The RV sites are really more of a gravel parking lot. The view might be great for the walk in sites but for RVs you really see more of the cabins backsides or washroom than the actual panorama. Facilities ok, but not great. Also no wifi

I can't say enough how much i loved camping at The View. 

We arrived at the campground at 11:30pm and were so afraid we'd be unable to register or find our site in the dark, let alone set up our tent. Luckily, if you arrive after 10:00 or so, you can register at the hotel on-site. Staff is incredible helpful. Apparently we were not the only late arrivals; quite a few seemed to be setting up and/or showering when we arrived. And lucky for us, a high, bright moon made it easy to see and get around, and provided one of the most majestic views of the rock formations i can imagine. We kept the tent fly off to enjoy the views all night.

Parking is a few feet away from the campsites; you'll have to carry your gear in. Be aware that there are rattle snakes and scorpions in the area. Staff warned us to close bathroom doors and tent doors behind you.  We saw a snake in the morning, but it did not look like a rattlesnake. Security circles around at night, which was comforting for me.

No additional costs for showers, but you do need a bathroom/shower code which you receive upon registering. Water drains slowly, causing slight flooding in the bathroom. Don't forget some shower shoes.

It felt like most families woke up early for the gorgeous sunrise, packed up, and left before the August heat set in. By 9am, seemed like everyone was gone, so we got to enjoy some solitude before the 11am checkout. Might not really be the type of heat one can camp in for multiple days. 

There's a trailhead in the campground that goes near the cabin area and down into the valley. There's also a loop drive with unbeatable views. Campground lives up to it's name!

Only ten bucks per night. It was very close to the information center, so it was convenient for us to catch rangers to ask questions. All the basic amenities were available, like shower or potable water.

My friends and I went for horseback riding, and I had a lot of fun because it was my first time! Not much instructions on how to ride horses were given, but it was not that hard to ride the horses, so we were assuming that the horses were probably very well trained. There was a spot where they set up a couple different booths and sold jewelry and other things hand made by native indians. Pretty cool!

Pros: The view. Duh. Unbeatable. Near everything - guided tours, visitor center, restaurant, showers all within easy walking distance. The desert sand is nice and soft!

Cons: Tent sites are separated from RV’s which is nice but put together in such a small space that sites are literally on top of each other. For not even a picnic table 20$ isn’t cheap.

Just like the name says, there are some amazing views from this campground. They have lots of options, tent camping, RV spots, and cabins. My family stayed in one of the cabins on the cliff on our way up into Utah. The views were beautiful and unreal. They were a little pricy, but I’d say it was worth it for the scenery. 

There are some really cool hikes in the area too. Definitely check out Goulding arch and wildcat trail. The slot canyons in the area are pretty cool to see. Also, there’s a lot of cool Native American history to learn about in the area. This was an awesome place to hang around in for a couple of days.

Stunning views from every angle. Hike-in for tents but drive-in for campers & RVs. Sunsets and the stars are breathtaking. No pets (at least for tent sites), clean bathrooms, walking distance from hotel/restaurant that they have on site. Must reserve online for peak seasons. If going to monument valley, I highly recommend stopping here!

Nothing is really going to jump out at you here and really say that it’s amazing or breathtaking. The view during sunset are probably beautiful but we were here on a cloudy day so we didn’t see much of that beauty. The campsite for us was a little run down and it was very dirty, which was probably just the wind. Close drive to the park and going around is so many hikes.

Its really awesome. The view is spectacular. The showers and washrooms are really good.

NO SHADE! Be prepared to be out in the wind and sun. Campground is cut out of the side of a hill between the cabins and the visitors center. You can beat the price or the sunrise! If you love the west this is a place you must wake up one morning. There is a very clean shower house but no other amenities. I did see someone making coffee on the porch of the check in station where he found an electrical outlet. Was not at all crowded and at night the stars were so amazing! The local dogs may visit for a scrap or two and are very friendly - I really wanted to take one home! Nice breakfast can be purchased in hotel area. The horseback ride out into the valley is something not to be missed. We did the Gouldon's truck tour but loved the ride we took with Black's. What an adventure to be galloping those mustangs through the valley....one I will never forget!

Pretty much the only choice in Monument Valley currently due to COVID. Amenities are very nice. This KOA is still pretty new, so the trees are small offering little to no shade. The owner really cares & will do what he can to see that you're satisfied. He lent me am extension cord so I could make coffee since all fires were restricted, (my camp stove is a wood burning SoloStove).

Be warned, lights in the showers are motion sensors, it doesn't quite go black, but it will get darker, just open the shower door to activate.

Wow. We set up our tent and explored the area. But this campground was incredible. The bathrooms are so clean, they’re practically brand new. We watched the most beautiful sunset over the landscape. Be warned - there’s a very friendly wild dog that likes to say hello. At least while we were there. She friendly and just wants some company. She did bark at night though with a few other dogs. Nothing to be concerned about. This area is so desolate it’s breathtaking.

We were able to stay on the short pull through row& got a view to die for! Those with small class c, truck camper& tent sites got the front row, which is completely unobstructed. Road noise at night was not an issue. There are big rig sites too. The bath house looked brand new. Very clean. New laundry room too. Very nice, courteous staff.

 This campground has an outstanding view of Monument Valley! Due to covid Monument Valley scenic drive was closed. We didn't feel we missed much. Every night a spectacular sunset. Every morning a fabulous sunrise. This is a low light campground, so a star filled night sky not tainted with mercury vapor lights. We used this as a base camp for the area& were not disappointed. I enthusiastically recommend! We camped at Monument Valley KOA Journey in a Travel Trailer

This KOA is located right across the road from soem of the manor buttes in Monumewnt Valley, right in the heart of Navaho Country. We discovered this campground on our first trip to the American Southwest post COVID. This facility is newly owned and very well updated by way of lavatories, showers and laundry facilities (immaculate).  The owners are extremely friendly and connected to the guests.   All the sites have full hookups and there are additional services provided on the site such as jeep rentals, Navaho tours and horse rides.  We are satisfied with the accommodations and would come again if wevever re-visit this area. Very nice maangement!

This is a very new, very small KOA. Trees are newly planted and sites are SMALL. If you like your front yard to contain your neighbors "poop-shoot", water line and electric box, then this is for you. With all the open land, it's too bad this campground couldn't double (or triple) the site sizes. Staff seem great but camping is about being outdoors and enjoying nature. I don't want to feel like I'm living in an apartment when camping. This campground just wasn't for us.

My fiancé and I spent a night here of our 1 month long roadtrip. Pros: Super Close to Monument valley, friendly staff, clean 24hr facilities, running water. Beautiful view if the stars and planets.

Con: Really close to highway that’s a little noisy but if you’re unbothered by that it’s the perfect spot for a one to two night stay.

Got there at about 4ish-5. Was pretty hot, but simmered down after the festivities. Great photos were taken.

We got this site on a whim, paid around 55$ for a night. Has showers, bathrooms, fire pits. Beautiful views. Can’t complain.

We enjoyed our stay at this KOA for a few nights. We were here right before a cold front moved through in the late fall. The views were a true 360 degree experience and we enjoyed a fire as the sun set and we watched the stars come out.

This campground had everything we needed and was very clean.

Nice clean park, friendly helpful folks, nice laundry room. Really close to Monument Valley.

We had a full hookup drive through site with lots of room. We took an amazing Monument Valley tour that picked us up at the campground- highly recommend.
