Guide
Stayed here overnight to visit the Petrified Forest National Park.
Staff was friendly and helpful. The "cowboy" breakfasts and dinners are simple friendly events, although I didn't eat there.
Lots are standard RV set-ups, all right next to each other. Lot was fairly level, but still needed from front/back leveling even in my small van. Gravel driveways, gravel lots.
Laundry had about 5-6 washers and the same number of dryers.
This location is near a highway that is busy all night. You are not right on the highway, but the steady sound of cars and trucks can be heard all night. Not super loud, but not peaceful either.
Wifi was slow and inconsistent. Even though I was right by the main building, my connection sometimes said "unable to connect, try moving closer", or just wouldn't connect, or if it did, was unusably slow. Verizon wireless was great though (about 10mb).
I'd stay again for a convenient overnight.
TravelerMy first KOA—pricey for a tent spot (car camping) with a small shared area and limited tables. Tent spots are in view of noisy I40. I did feel safe here, considering the KOA branding, and liked the shorter drive to PFNP. Facilities are nice, otherwise, with close bathhouses and a sweet little chuckwagon serving breakfast and dinner.
GuideEasy on and off interstate. Level sites. Clean campground. Looks like renovating some areas...nice. All the amenities of a KOA. Serves breakfast and dinner...nice
TravelerNice campground Close to Walmart, Flying J, Standing on a Corner Close to town and restaurant’s Within 2 mile diameter
LegendGreat proximity to the Petrified forrest NP. Campsites were wide and level. Nice amenities include the chairs, table and fire pit. It also had a fair amount of privacy. Nice experience. Staff were. friendly and helpful.
The power did go out with 102F. The staff restored power and came around to all campsites with the status, Much appreciated.
TravelerWe live in the Phoenix area, and we use this KOA as a launching off point for trips to the East. The staff are always friendly and helpful. The grounds are well maintained. We were assigned spot #58 which is a big spot with a paver patio, furniture and a firepit. It also has privacy fencing on each side and full hookups. With our KOA discount it was $81.83. This was our first time with this large of a spot. Next time, we will go back to a regular spot again for a better price. The location is just off Interstate 40 which makes it convenient, but you can hear some of the freeway noise and an occasional train. They serve a delicious breakfast with a good variety that has an all you can eat pancake option for only $3.99. There is also a Cowboy Cookout every night. They are making more improvements to the grounds. Some spots will have a private enclosed patio with a gazebo and fire pit. For dog owners, there are some spots with your own enclosure, but those are hard to get. There is a dog run as well as a designated dog walking area with trees and trash cans.

Both host phone numbers disconnected.
Campgrounds in disarray. Abandoned cars in lot. Animal skulls mounted on fence posts.
We’re pretty much up for anything… but no, just no - went on to Holbrook and got a hotel with no worries for the same price.
Zero stars if we could.
LegendLarge gravel lot. Modern utilities, large sites.
RangerRolled in to enjoy a nice sunset. Spots are narrow but long. Kid and doggo loved the amenities. Everyone there was nice. They had $4 all you can eat pancakes but we didn’t partake. They also offer dinner. Clean bathrooms, good showers.
ScoutThis is one of my favorite stops the site is always cleared and free of B's the owners are super helpful and very kind down to earth people . The star gazing is incredible, a astrologists dream truly heaven on earth people . This is a must stop and stay especially if you plan on seeing the petrified forest it's the very next exit . I would no doubt stay here every time I'm passing by.
ScoutWe've stayed here with our littles 4 times over the last 6 years. The service, smiles, clean campsites & restrooms/showers, breakfasts, and cowboy cookouts are all top notch and worth coming back for. Well done, folks!
ScoutLet me start off this review by saying Jason was an awesome site host! When we arrived there was some confusion as he was unaware of our booking and recommended booking through hip camp or air bnb as it’s cheaper but other than that the site was peaceful and clean. Also recommend being careful on the dirt/sand road, the morning we we’re leaving the site, our van got stuck in the sand on the road but Jason came to our rescue and pulled us out with a huge mad max style truck, Bassett hound by his side, no issue! Overall highly recommend this campsite just not booking through the dyrt.
LegendCampground is outdated but good for over night stay which is what it seems most are doing. Close to the Petrified National Forest which is awesome. Sites can be muddy when it rains. Laundry was clean and easy to use. Not sure what the deal is with the double wife’s are in the property.
LegendAshley here with The Dyrt! I'm happy to welcome Jason & Kim to our platform. This location is 15 minutes from the Petrified Forest. Level camping areas and lots of space. The road getting in is a bit bumpy, so take it slow. The payoff is worth it as you can pull up and camp anywhere. Fire-pit & grill available. Book your stay and leave your review here!
ScoutNice bathroom and shower facilities, Wi-Fi is a bonus since cell connection isn’t the best out here. Free firepits to borrow
GuideNo amenities- it is what they promise. Level sites and hook ups. We even got a site with a dump, though they did not promise us this. Super quiet. Worth a stop if you are passing through.
TravelerCheck in was a breeze, the attendant had everything mapped out for us before we arrived. Very clean sites. Great cookout was delicious!! We had cheeseburgers with baked beans and potato salad. The only thing that I would change is the motion sensor light that kept turning on like a spot light through our curtains all night.
TravelerThe gal at the service desk was great and made sure I was all set. Rv camping is a parking lot with power poles and dry camping is parking along the back fence but for 15 bucks I was cool with everything. It's fenced and felt safe. Hella noise from the freeway. Private bathrooms with showers and wifi.
ScoutSleeping in my car, it was a great spot for an overnight. Not too expensive for tent camping and had both bathrooms and showers
ScoutIn my cross country move, I stopped here for a night to visit the Petrified National Park. I had never stayed at a KOA before but got a cabin with no bathroom for 1 night. It was very nice! Cozy. There was a strong heater, and it was pet friendly! The manager was nice and the park was well kept!
GuideStayed here Nov 21-23, 2021.
Firstly, these sites are pretty tight. They are level, but tight. All gravel. Secondly, there's nothing for dogs. They may advertise as pet friendly, but it's really just not. There's an area designated for a pet walk, but it's just not a pet walk at all. You have the option to pay an extra $20 for a site that includes a little area for your doggo, but it's about a 4x4 cage with fake grass. Really only big enough for a toy chihuahua to comfortably use it for potty time. The restrooms were clean and decent. Wifi decent. Laundry facility decent. This place is pretty straight forward in how it's designed and what it has to offer. If you don't have pets, then this place might be good for you. Overall, it was okay for 2 nights, but no more than that.
GuideBusy place.
Easy access.
Ok bathrooms and showers - clean but tired
Hooks ups good
Staff nice and direct
Sunset unbelievable
GuideThe gift shop is nice. The rest of the park looks aged with lots of goat heads around park. Water pressure is low and WIFI is terrible. Fine for a night traveling through.

Had a bit of difficulty finding this place and had to call Atlan a few times before we finally found it. In all honesty, this is really just a cow pasture near a big pile of abandoned tires(tv’s,vacuum,mattress etc.) and lots of freight trains w/ really loud horns. We arrived just in time for a huge amount of rain, hence the mudfest. Got bogged down and had a little difficulty getting out. If you’re really in need of a place to park for the night... and there’s nowhere else, this is a great spot. Lots of open sky. The host is very helpful and responsive. I wish I could leave a better review, as you can’t control the weather. It just wasn’t quite what we were looking for.
GuideThis campground was brought to us by Passport America for $40 for 3 nights. It is not not fancy but if you like Mexican food, there is a restaurant right in front of the campground. Our site had FHUs with a level, rock pad in full sun. Sites were very close to each other with no fire ring or picnic table. Very close to I40 which was very noisy.
RangerShowed up late hoping for a last minute stay. They were happy to help. Place is under reconstruction. Currently showers aren’t available but there is sewer and electric hookup available.
GuideFor accurate coordinates and booking visit Google maps and site on the link. As the owner and lover of nature I bring an off grid private campground. Upon arrival you find yourself on a prehistoric lakebed, just nature. Away from it all on the off beaten path to get there but hey 1.25 acres for camping and exploring Jojo! Centrally located and under the Milky Way🌌, each stay help towards planting trees, on the property and In the fossil creek woods after the fire/closure of 2021.
