    First day of my campsite, I’ve enjoyed my campers. I told them about the area and name of the monuments . I did start with 2 campsites, than continued to built more campsite. I wanted my campers to enjoy a fire pit and shower during their stay. Now we have warm shower during warmer season. We been improving our outhouse which is an outdoor restroom. An outhouse is dirt hole with no water to flush. Our campsite is very safe, I built a wooden fence around the whole campsite so horses and cows will not eat our trees and garden. Campers to feel comfortable and have some privacy to their site and during their stay. Now, Our campers guests enjoy our campsite and enjoy having them return again. We always explain to them them about our short hiking trail to the rims (Private Overlook) to see the whole valley. Its a beautiful area to take pictures for Sunrise and Sunset.

    Guest can pitch a tent or park RV within the campsite having access to own picnic table and fire pit. The Campsite is 10-15 mins to the Valley View of the Famous Monuments and close to Navajo Tribal Park.

    Access to Shower and Restroom (Outhouse) Very Clean.

    Guest can request Navajo Taco Dinner with Navajo Tea for extra cost to enlighten their stay here in Beautiful Monument Valley. Text or Call me at 435-444-5714 to request Our Delicious Navajo Taco with Navajo Tea.

    Guest can bring pets as well. We are pet friendly and have two well behaved dogs name Shina and diamond.

    Valley of the Gods Dispersed Camping

    Great, but...

    Be prepared for no water unless there has been recent rains, and even then there likely won't be any. 

    It can get windy, so be ready for that, and you'll need to bring your own firewood as well.  It's beautiful but there aren't any amenities beyond (maybe) a fire pit. 

    I'd argue there are better spots on Cedar Mesa itself, but the Valley of the Gods is a beautiful alternative to the more famous Monument Valley. 

    Both Natural Bridges and Hovenweap are worth the short (an hour at most) drives from camp, and both have developed campgrounds for those looking for toilets or other aspects of civilization.

    Nice spot but crowded

    Some good some bad. Good: Nice location with good spot to view the valley. Easy to due laundry, Nestled in the red rocks. Bad: very tight spots, overpriced given the lack of amenities.

    Mexican Hat Rock

    Incredibly Surprised

    Never in my life have I heard of Mexican Hat, let alone the rock it’s named after. Jeez this place was cool, the river was beautiful, the dispersed camping areas were great under the stars, and that dang Mexican Hat Rock juxtaposed to the unforgiving sea of desert just put a huge smile on my face.

    Peaceful and Amazing Views

    Very easy to drive on road, we took a 2WD car and had no issues. Plenty of spots so you’ll always find a place to camp for the night.

    Great views at every spot and barely any road noise from the highway. Good AT&T coverage.

    No fires allowed here so keep that in mind

    Nice and quiet campground

    The campground is small, which makes it nice and quiet. We enjoyed the beautiful starry night! And they made us a delicious Navajo taco dinner which you can request beforehand. We highly recommend this campground.

    Perfect place to see Monument Valley

    Camping is rustic but very quiet and sites are very close with little privacy. Host is very nice and helpful.

    Goosenecks State Park Campground

    Amazing Canyon Rim Camping

    Gorgeous Views literally camping on the rim of a 1000 foot high cliff overlooking the goosenecks of the San Juan river below. No designated campsites. Just pick your spot along the canyon rim. Great place for trailers / campers. I wouldn't want to camp here in tent. 

    Pros:

    Easy drive in and pull up to a spot. 

    Dark sky area so you can get some amazing night photography shots

    Close to other attractions including Valley of the Gods, Muley Point (which would also be a fun campsite), Monument Valley (a bit further afield), etc. 

    The canyon below is stunning and the goosenecks are quite remarkable

    Cons: 

    This is not a site for small children. You are literally camping several feet away from a 1000 foot cliff. 

    You are on top of a mesa and we had some strong winds blowing across. 

    The terrain is very flat, but is also rocky. I would not want to set up a tent on the rocks and/or fight the wind with a tent. 

    The pit toilets are reasonably clean, but only located by the park entrance gate. So if you park further along the rim, you either need your own facilities, you have a very long walk, or you are driving back and forth over the rocky road (disturbing all of the other campers along the way). 

    The last observation is that while the goosenecks are truly incredible, especially from the main lookout spot, the color of the rocks in the canyon aren't as varied as other places (i.e., compared to Dead Horse Point State Park). As a photographer, I kept hoping the coloring would be more captivating once the light shifted, shadows moved, etc., but that never happened. Go in with the right expectations and you won't be disappointed.

    No Desperse Camping anymore

    I arrived here late afternoon, big sign in the beginning- pay online under www.mexicanhatrocks.com - it’s 18$ per night for just a place to park- no toilets. . No reception with T-mobile to pay online. Went to gooseneck state park campground instead, only 10$ per night and they have toilets.

    Dope Views

    Have camped at Goosenecks many times traveling between NM and WA on the regular. The views here are unparalleled. If you love the desert and various shades of sepia and brick—this is the spot. No shade but it’s lovely, dry desert air, so it’s never too hot…You will likely have neighbors (but not too close usually, with only air and some space between you (so no privacy per se). And even though I don’t like camping much around people or in established spots, I love this place.

    Valley of the Gods

    Not secluded

    When we arrived it was howling wind and blowing sand. We worried the side of our van would be nothing but primer in the morning. Fortunately by the morning it was sunny and calm with stunning vistas. The area is exposed with few secluded opportunities. Despite mid week in May, many spots were taken. That said, it was so beautiful we would not hesitate to visit again.

    We found a great spot to park our RV!

    We entered Valley of the Gods from the west side, at the bottom of the Moki Dugway. We passed Lee's Ranch, went another mile or so and found a great flat area on the left hand side of the road, with an awesome view of Balanced Rock. We actually drove the entire road the next day and thanked our lucky stars that we parked our trailer where we did. Trying to pull an RV all the way through is definitely not advised.

    Amazing place

    It’s a dry camping spot. We didn’t see wild animals around. Has a Porta-potty in the campground. Nice views and not too many people in the campground. 25$ per night host came to welcome us and collect the payment.

    Wonderful stay, fabulous overlook

    Stayed for 3 nights. Campsite was mostly level. Outhouse tidy and clean. Didn’t use the shower. Did the Navajo taco dinner, very tasty. They arranged a tour for me, ended up being a tour of just me, at sunrise for photos; Shane is great, arrived 10 minutes early. There’s a 15 min. walk to the overlook, worth doing every day for terrific views of Monument Valley. Would definitely stay there again.
