Best RV Parks & Resorts near Monument Valley, AZ

324 Reviews

Monument Valley RV accommodations include several established parks with scenic desert views. Gouldings RV and Campground, located about 6 miles from Monument Valley Park, offers full hookup sites for $47 per night with shower facilities, laundry, and WiFi connectivity. The View Campground provides RV sites that face east toward the iconic Mittens formations, though sites lack electrical or water hookups. "The RV sites are really more of a gravel parking lot. The view might be great but for RVs you really see more of the cabins backsides than the actual panorama," noted one visitor. Monument Valley KOA includes big-rig friendly sites with full hookups including 50-amp electrical service, while Coral Sands RV Park in Bluff features pull-through RV pads accommodating larger motorhomes.

Road conditions require careful navigation when approaching certain parks. Many RV sites throughout the region provide dump stations, though The View Campground offers this amenity without hookup options. During peak tourism seasons (spring and fall), advance reservations are essential as parks fill quickly. Cell service varies considerably across the Monument Valley area, with stronger connectivity at established RV parks like Gouldings and weaker signals at more remote locations. Pet policies allow dogs at most RV parks, including Gouldings, The View, and Monument Valley KOA. One visitor remarked that reaching Hummingbird Campground with a larger RV proved challenging: "We reached Monument Valley at 7:30pm and couldn't see the very small sign, google's indications showed a very steep way off the road to the track, this didn't make us comfortable risking it with a long RV."

    Monument Valley KOA

    A fantastic view!

    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

    Monument Valley KOA

    A smaller KOA

    General: 56-site campground with a mix of 50-amp pull-thru, 30-amp pull-thru, 30-amp back-in, and 30-amp tent/RV sites. All sites have water and electricity. 

    Site Quality: All sites are gravel and level. As expected in an RV park, there is no separation/privacy between sites. Our back-in 30-amp site had a picnic table, electricity, and water. However, the picnic table was on the opposite side of the water and electricity, which was confusing. 

    Bath/Shower house: Very clean. Nice hot water and pressure in the shower (turn the hot water all the way to the left to get the hot water going).

    Activities/Amenities: Dog park, playground, laundry with three washers and three dryers ($4 per load for both which was very reasonable). Although the laundry did say it was open 24/7, when we checked in, the sheet advised us that the last load of laundry had to be in by 7 pm. There is a store open from 8 am– 8 pm. Horse tours can also be booked from the campground. 

    We stayed here as we needed to fill up on water and had booked a Monument Valley sunrise tour and the KOA was one of the pick-up sites. We were able to go on our tour and be back before check-out at 11 am. There are nice views from the campground.

    Valles RV Park

    Small basic FHU RV Park close to a lot of scenic areas

    We are full-timers in a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow. We were here for a few days in mid April. The CG is pretty basic, and could use a little work, but has full hook-ups with 30A service. We were in site 4(a pull-through) for 4 nights in mid April. The owner was friendly and helpful. It’s a good central location for exploring scenic areas in the vicinity if you need/want FHUs. While here we plan to visit a number of scenic areas in; Gooseneck SP, Mexican Hat Rock, Moki Dugway, Muley Point Overlook, Valley of the Gods and Monument Valley- lots to see around here.

    AT&T coverage showed 2 Bars of LTE service, with speeds up to 3.5 MB/s. We had an unobstructed view of the sky and so we were able to receive all 3 SW Dish satellites and Starlink had up to 15 MB/s. We didn’t try to load any OTA channels.

    Gouldings RV and Campground

    Great facilities and amazing views!

    We decided to stay here on a short notice, and found a space for our RV with full hook-ups.  Price was decent for the amenities and service.  We were able to take the shuttle up to the lodge for dinner.  The views around the property are gorgeous, and there are little hikes you can do right on the site.  This location is just minutes from Monument Valley, and while we did not use their tour service, Goulding's offer their own guided tour of MV.  We would stay here again when we are in the area!

    Sand Island Recreation Area — Bears Ears National Monument

    Petroglyphs!

    Came here to see petroglyphs which are next to the campground along the San Juan River. 

    The campground is $15/night, first come first served and can accommodate big rigs. 

    The sites are dirt and gravel and each has a fire pit and picnic table. Area was dusty and very sunny though some sites offer some shade. 

    The campground is not far off of the highway so there is some road noise. There is a boat ramp for river access. There were quite a few fishers so must be good fishing area though I don’t really know. 

    There is no garbage and water is available seasonally, but pit toilets are available so pack in and pack out and bring lots of water. 

    The campground was clean and the petroglyphs were cool, it's just too bad that people vandalized them. Good place to stay for a day or two.

    Navajo National Monument Sunset View Campground

    Best Free Camping!

    We pulled in at 1pm just as everyone was leaving after the Native Americans Day weekend. Most spaces filled up by 5. Sunset has paved small back in spaces and just a few pull throughs. Most are small suitable for up to 15-22’ TTs . There is a 30’ rig too. Drove to the Canyon View loop to check it out. Fair road, nothing a passenger car couldn’t handle. Check out sites 2, 6 and 8 for amazing canyon views. Most sites are small with just a couple to accommodate a big rig. All free and not even an entrance fee. 7 nights max. No hookups.

Guide to Monument Valley

Monument Valley hosts several established RV campgrounds with varied amenities and site configurations. Gouldings RV and Campground provides full hookups with 50-amp service on gravel pads, while The View Campground arranges RV sites in an east-facing row for optimal sunrise views of the Mittens formations but offers fewer hookups. "The RV sites are really more of a gravel parking lot," noted one visitor about The View's setup. Monument Valley KOA features 56 sites with a mix of 50-amp pull-through, 30-amp pull-through, and 30-amp back-in configurations, all with water and electric hookups on level gravel surfaces. Coral Sands RV Park accommodates big rigs with full hookups including 50-amp service, though most parks position RVs quite close together with minimal privacy between sites.

During peak seasons, advance reservations are strongly recommended as the limited RV accommodations in this remote area fill quickly. Most Monument Valley RV parks remain open year-round, though services may be reduced in winter. Dump stations are available at Gouldings and Monument Valley KOA, with the latter charging $10 for non-guests. Many parks offer amenities beyond basic hookups, including shower facilities, laundry services, and camp stores with essential supplies. According to one camper, "We were able to empty our tanks and fill up on water" after several nights of boondocking elsewhere. Pet policies vary between campgrounds but most are pet-friendly with some restrictions. Note that RVs are prohibited on the scenic loop through Monument Valley itself, requiring alternative transportation for exploring the iconic landscape formations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are the best RV parks and campgrounds in Monument Valley?

Monument Valley offers several excellent RV camping options. Gouldings RV and Campground provides full hookups in a picturesque setting with gorgeous views and convenient access to Monument Valley Park. Sites accommodate various RV sizes with both back-in and pull-through options. Another top choice is Monument Valley KOA, featuring 56 sites with water and electricity, including 50-amp pull-thru, 30-amp pull-thru, and 30-amp back-in options. All sites are gravel and level, with front-row sites offering unobstructed views. For those willing to venture slightly farther, The View Campground near Oljato-Monument Valley offers big-rig-friendly sites with spectacular views of the iconic monuments.

Do I need reservations for RV camping in Monument Valley?

Reservations are highly recommended for RV camping in Monument Valley, especially during peak tourist seasons (spring and fall). Valles RV Park can fill up quickly despite its basic amenities, as it's one of the few options with full hookups in the area. While some visitors report finding last-minute availability at Navajo National Monument Sunset View Campground, it's typically quite full by sunset. This free campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Due to limited RV camping options within Monument Valley itself and restrictions against boondocking on Navajo Nation land, securing reservations well in advance is the safest approach, particularly if you have a larger RV or specific hookup requirements.

What amenities are available at Monument Valley RV campgrounds?

RV campgrounds in Monument Valley offer varying levels of amenities. Sand Island Recreation Area provides basic amenities with dirt and gravel sites, each featuring a fire pit and picnic table. For more comprehensive facilities, The View Campground offers water, toilets, and big-rig-friendly sites with spectacular monument views. Most established RV parks in the area provide water and electric hookups, with some offering full hookups including sewer. Additional amenities at certain locations include clean restrooms, shower facilities, laundry services, swimming pools, grocery stores, and shuttle services to nearby attractions. Many campgrounds also feature hiking trails accessible directly from the camping area, allowing for convenient exploration of the surrounding landscape.

What is the best time of year for RV camping in Monument Valley?

Spring (April-May) and fall (September-October) are ideal for RV camping in Monument Valley, offering pleasant temperatures and moderate crowd levels. Navajo National Monument Canyon View Campground is particularly delightful during these seasons, though it may have seasonal closures for maintenance, so check availability. Summer (June-August) brings intense heat with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F, making outdoor activities challenging during midday. Winter (November-March) delivers cooler temperatures and potential for dramatic snow-dusted views of the monuments, but nights can drop below freezing. Goosenecks State Park Campground offers year-round access with particularly stunning sunrise and sunset views in winter when the air is crisp and clear.
