Best Tent Camping near Page, AZ

Your basic campground, tent sites, RV sites with full hook ups, walk in sites and some group sites. Nice views of Lake Powell and the sandstone. Close to Page if you need to stock up on anything go there. Flush toilets and running water in bathrooms, which are cleaned daily. Outdoor sink for dishes and water in tent sites. There is one swim beach accessible from the campsite but it is 3/4 of a mile walk just from the beach parking lot and downhill on sand, not super fun to get to with a stroller, 2 toddlers, and all the beach gear. Definitely would be a more fun location if you plan on renting a motor boat or jet ski otherwise it is hard to get much of a lake experience. Make reservations online in advance!

prons: 35$ tent site, location near main spots, well organized

Cons: toilets far from tent spots, noisy due to the street, we arrived After 6 pm and no one sent us info about PIN toilets etc

I thought this campground was a pretty unique find. The closest town is Page, AZ. There's a pretty cool dam nearby, there's Horsehoe Bend and I hear Lake Powell itself is great for Kayaking, but we didn't get to enjoy that. This campsite is interesting because there are no designated spots. You just drive out anywhere on the beach and camp. Plenty of toilets scattered around the beach, no showers. We came on a windy night and tent camped, so we woke up covered in sand. Other downside is that apparently it is a spot for locals to come party. Be careful where you park. The sand moves and you can get stuck. But it was pretty amazing sleeping right on a beach.

Everything we needed: tent site, toilets, water, great views

Additions: close by beach & great morning views!

Note: we got caught in major winds which turned our tent into a tumbleweed, followed by terrific lightning storm. (We slept in the car that night)

Great spot withing view of Lake Powell. Tent Campsites are spread out and have flat bordered area to set up. Most have there own table. Staff are great and the store is well stocked.

The tent campground is fairly basic, but they have a picnic table and fire ring, nice restrooms and a beautiful view of Lake Powell. There are also showers and laundry machines at the registration building. I would definitely stay there again!

Really beautiful beach spot and nice to swim in and relax, but come prepared with shade and a table to cook on. If you plan to come here I think an RV is the best choice because I came with a tent and we left for a few hours and came back and an RV ran over it, so we had to set up somewhere else. It is also really windy, so come prepared for that as well. My overall tent camping experience was not great, but the spot is beautiful. Do not think it is worth the $15 per night.

This place is perfect if you have jet skis and off road vehicles and want to camp right on the beach for a few nights. Great access to the lake. It’s not too far from Page and there’s a gas station with supplies fairly close. It’s a great party spot, there’s plenty of room for big groups. If you’re looking for seclusion this is not for you. If you’re getting in late it’s great because you’re pretty much guaranteed to get a spot.

Wahweap is lucky that it is in one of the most beautiful places on Earth- Lake Powell! If it weren't for the incredible scenery this campsite would not be worth the money. There is little to no shade, and every camp site is extremely exposed, meaning no privacy from your neighbors. We were tent camping and next to a very loud RV generator- makes for a less than serene setting. That being said, the sunsets and location make Wahweap work it. The location is so close to all the best areas Glen Canyon has to offer, and the views are amazing

We just stopped here to get a shower and laundry. The laundry room is open 24/7 with washers and driers teaming quarters and a machine that gives tokens for showers. $2 gives you two tokens for a 8 min shower. Seemed to last even longer. Clean and single family units. The campground store was closed because it was Christmas Day. Campground looked pretty nice and full hook-up as well as tent sites options but we moved on to a more scenic site further north on the shore of the lake.

Location: excellent proximity to the Grand Canyon, Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Upper & Lower Slot Canyons. Within approximately 1 hour to each. The campground is situated on Lake Powell with breath taking views. 15 minute drive from Page, Arizona which offers lots of tourism activities, shopping etc.

Park: Well run resort, very clean, very nice. Each concrete pad was level and well positioned for a beautiful view of the lake. There is great spacing between sites. There are several loops to spread everyone out and limit traffic from other loops. They have lots of walking and biking trails. Access to the lake and docks, and boat storage.

Sites: Each site has a level concrete pad and full hook ups and an incredible view of the lake.

Cellular: ok T-Mobile, we couldn’t stream videos but Facebook, email, calling we’re all able to be utilized.

It was $18/night for a tent site with access to pit toilet bathrooms and showers (though if you want to shower you have to pay an extra $5). There was a large group there at the same time that I was, which made for a less peaceful experience. Offers full hook-ups for RV's, which made it popular with big rigs. The best part about it was the proximity to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, which is said to get only 10% of the crowds compared to the much more crowded South Rim.

I generally try to avoid paid campgrounds but there are few options, even in the off-season, in this area, and we were driving late into the day, so it was a relief to get to this campground, and even more pleasant to wake up here the next morning. The area is beautiful, the campground is pleasant and you have all the luxuries a paid campground should offer--water, picnic tables, toilets, fire pits, etc. About 45 minutes from Page, and if you are headed for the North Rim of the Grand Canyon this would be a good stop (though not in the winter, as the North Rim is closed dec to mid-may.

Arrived on a Thursday evening and stayed for 1 night. It’s $14/night or $7 senior/access pass fee. I had the access pass but no one at the stand to confirm so I paid full price. So many places to park along the river or off the river. Looks like over 150 campers could fit here. Only had around 30 for the night I stayed. A few small fire rings throughout the land and SEVERAL vault toilets, which were clean. I think I counted 20? Good AT&T service and beautiful sunsets. About 20 minutes from horseshoe bend or 10 minutes from Page, AZ to stock up on groceries and gas. What a nice find!

Lees Ferry was a nice stop on the way from Utah heading to Grand Canyon National Park. Nothing too crazy to rave about, except for the view! Campsite was $18 for a primitive tent site for the night but there are no reservations so it's essentially first come basis. It looked like there were maybe 50 sites in total. If you get there early enough can you get a nice view of the river below. Although there were no amenities besides bathrooms, it was a good option for a one night stopover for us. Got pretty windy in the evening so make sure you have tent stakes or at least heavy bags to keep it down. This campsite is very close between Horseshoe bend and Marble Canyon (both a must see if heading through).

Large CG run by a pvt consessions. $30 nite for no hookups. Most loops are full hookups. Only loop 4 was open for dry camping RVs and tents. Sites are packed in together. Large fancy restrooms.

We stayed in a self contained RV or tent site. We arrived at 6PM and the store was closed and a sheet was posted with our name and site number that also informed us if we didn't check-in first thing the next day we would be considered as vacating and our stay canceled. Not only was the store closed very early but when we arrived the next morning we found the store was operating on Pacific time despite the near by Navajo nation and Utah being mountain time but that was not listed on any sign. The RV/tent loops are very far from the camp store/welcome center. Showers are at the camp store building far away from the tent and contained sites which need it more than the full hookup sites. Showers are a process unto themselves, first the sheet and email confirmation said a 15 min shower but has been changed to 8 (understandable due to water shortages) so the signs need to be updated. You need small bills to get tokens to operate the showers then you have to buy 2 tokens for one 8 min shower. We chose to share a family shower and split time to save on the shower debacle. The campground is in a great location being close to Lake Powell, GC Dam, Page, and many other sites and hikes. Sites are roomy back in not pull through. Each loop has its own bathroom house.

This was such a quaint friendly campsite. The woman here was by far the sweetest. They sell ice cream treats and ice too, with pristine vault toilets and sinks. We had such a nice quiet stay. The tent sites are all very close together but because it was empty, we had a wonderfully quiet stay camped between some trees. And yes fire rings were amazing considering the no fire restrictions all around the area. It’s about an hour from North Rim Grand Canyon which is highly recommended. We went out onto Bright angel point. There were other camp sites further in toward the rim, but they didn’t come up on the Dyrt so not sure their availability. Overall it was a great spot.

Great views and great campsites. The tent sites include a sandy pad for your tent, picnic table, fire ring, camp fire grill, and parking space. Bathrooms are close to the campsites and were clean. Only downside to the campground is the campsites are a little close to each other. Camp store stocked with beer, wine, food, coffee, t-shirts, and gear. Bring your own fire wood. Laundry and showers located at the store for a fee. Campground was crowded, so make sure to make a reservation. Simple reservation process on their website. Easy access to the lake, parking and a short walk to the swimming beach right accross the street from the store. Kayak and paddle board rentals available. Didn't have any luck with the wifi, but who needs wifi when camping?! Also didn't have any cell service, but again, who needs it? Campsite is dog friendly!

This campground is part of Glen Canyon National rec area. It costs $14 (even in the off-season, apparently). Not sure it's worth that given that in the winter all but a few of the vault toilets are closed, but it's a nice, open space with a pleasant view of the lake and "Lone Rock". You can build a campfire right on the beach, and while we were here (early March) it was very uncrowded--just a few other campers spread out in the vast, open space. We have a 2wd and it did fine on the sand, just don't go careening off the edge of the drop-off into deeper sand unless you are confident your vehicle can handle it. Only about 20 minutes from Page, so convenient if you're looking to stay in the area for a day or so.

The staff was so sweet and friendly, felt welcomed from the start. Beautiful wooded area, fire rings but no grates, we brought our own.. (still great to have fire ring considering the no fire restrictions for boon-docking anywhere else). Camp was pretty empty for tent campers so we easily got a spot. Normally all tent sites are very close together, but not much traffic or people up here so it was perfect to ourselves with hardly anyone around us in June. Pristine vault toilets and sinks. Ice and ice cream treats can be bought on property, made for a great treat after a campfire dinner. The campsite is about an hour from the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, and we passed other campsites closer to the canyon that weren’t on The Dyrt and meant to go back to get the names, sorry. But overall we would highly recommend and loved our quiet pretty stay. Visit bright angel point at the rim. Insane and this north rim is underrated! Less people and more nature. Five stars.
