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 chose this CG off of TheDyrt and gave it a try. Rolled in around 2PM, it was nearly empty. Great CG. Staff at the Visitor Center was very friendly. Spot 14, as you can see had a great view and the sunset on this mid fall cold evening was outstanding.
The “but” part. It is a tight fit. I’d estimate that half the sites are single parking and will only accommodate a van or small Class C motorhome. At least three that I saw have a pretty steep slope front to back. Tents no problem. The pull through spaces will not permit a slide to be out due to blocking the road. We have a 26 ft trailer and a 3/4 ton truck. I wouldn’t try anything larger than this. Heed the warning sign at the entrance, 27’ trailer, 28’ motorhome, nothing larger. Essentially if it were busy and your equipment is on the larger end, your space choices will be limited.
I’ll close on a positive note. It’s still FREE! The cave dwellings and history are not to be missed. ✌️Out!
GuideThis has to be one of the the best free campgrounds I have ever been too. Paved roads , paved sites and a bathhouse . Plus a fabulous view
Guide
The campground map on their website indicated cable tv on some site, but they do no offer cable tv anymore. The wifi was the worst I have ever experienced, got there at 3 PM and could not even open an email. The park was just bought by an LLC and the on-site manager seems to have no authority as once I figured out the cable and wifi situation I requested a refund for my second night so we could move, but he could not make a decision until he talked to his manager the next morning. I would definitely stay somewhere else until they can improve this location. They have an indoor pool, but in early October is was closed for the season. Why have an indoor if you close it that early? We stayed here 2 years ago and it was better, but will not return again!
Guide
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.
Scout
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.
Guide
We are really enjoy our stay, facility and site are very clean.
So nearby the Antelope, Glen Canyon, so many place to browsing!
ScoutCamping is rustic but very quiet and sites are very close with little privacy. Host is very nice and helpful.
ScoutSurprise! Free camping at an incredible national monument…not to be missed.
GuideThe view was stunning Worth everything
Toilet Shower Drinkable water Didn’t tried the charging thing for RV
360 view on Monument valley
ScoutEverything is nicely done. We also booked a tour inside Monument Valley with the Gouldings.
Guide
Great, easy stop on way to monument valley. We came in at night in a campervan. The roads are all paved so no issues at all even at night. Flush toilets and water is available. The visitors center has a quick walk to view an amazing cave dwelling. First come first served, but the vast majority of spots were open. Lovely spot to rest for the night.
ScoutThis campsite was great. Perfect for popping in and out. We stayed one night and it was extremely quiet and peaceful.
TravelerAll brand new site with good but small spots. Nice view but only 2 combined showers/toilets avaliable. But not wheelchair accessible. Hookups available.

I absolutely loved this campground. The staff were wonderful, the entire park was fresh and clean, and I don't care if you have a fully-equipped bathroom in your RV...you have to checkout their showers. It's a spa. Not kidding. If there was one downside it was that there are few trees for shade, but it was early enough in the year that it wasn't an issue. Wonderful large dog park and the best laundry facilities I've seen. Highly recommend!!
LegendThis is an unexpected jewel in my travels. There's a campground that is free and first come, first serve. The actual monument is stunning, and there's a few good hikes.

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.
ScoutStayed 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.
TravelerSimple and yet has everything you’ll need. Amazing view, friendly owners and serenity. Magical sunset and sunrise.
ScoutThis rv park is directly on an extremely busy Coppermine Road. Our space was the closest one to the driveway entrance. Air conditioning, earplugs, and white noise did nothing to quell the sound for a good night sleep.
Wi-Fi was intermittent at best but for the three days we were here we were able to log on one time. Kept saying unable to connect wrong password which wasn’t the case. Bring some DVDs because there is no TV availability. Even with our cable hook up may be a satellite for people work, but we don’t have one. Most people have dogs, and apparently leash requirements are not enforced. We have a cat and I couldn’t even take her out on her leash due to all the loose dogs. Most people have no regard and walk through your campsite back-and-forth to the office. We were one row away from the office,#82.
That being said, the sites level, and the hook ups were OK
Although it was extremely windy for a day, I think I would have spent the extra money and stayed at one of the campsites near the marina much quieter, and well maintained.
Did not use the pool or spa as it was loaded with kids and families were not real big on indoor facilities anyway. Sorry to make. Out first review such a downer but had we known we would’ve moved on and not stayed here. Very few healthy options for eating in town might do best with the deli at Safeway. We did have a nice lunch Canyon brewery.
TravelerGreat location, warm welcome, magnificent view close to Monument Valley. We ordered a local meal from the owner and we enjoyed it! I highly recommend. And thank you for the welcome!

First, you're paying for location. It's a KOA Journey, so you're not getting any amenities. Overall this is a nice campground. Sites are pretty level and gravel. Bathrooms are basic and clean. Staff is very friendly and can assist with directions and tours.
GuideThis is a very new campground with great amenities. Full Hookups.
ScoutThe view is nice. Dinner from the hosts is highly recommended, very tasty! The road to the campground is dirt but totally fine, even for a big RV.
TravelerCheapest campground for RV full hookup in area. Conveniently located near all page attractions. Sites were nice and big. Had an indoor pool and hot tub. Dog park was pretty much a joke for big dogs and the tree branches are a bit of an issue in places when driving a big rig though. Otherwise clean, safe and great location!
