This is a New KOA during our stay the had some working being done still, they have just finished the bathrooms and showers, the road was still also being worked on, but was fine to drive in my car. It's very close to the actual park entrance only a few miles away, the wifi is spotty at best, and our electrical on our tent site was not yet up and running, they only had fire would for sale, as they were putting a small store together, and the road noise is not bad but it's right by the main roadway, with that all being said, all can easily be put aside as the VIEW.....AMAZING!!!
The bathrooms and showers had very nice materials in them, they were also putting together the kids playground, I plan to come back next year when hopefully it's complete. For the 3 night stay Under $120 it was perfect, which included our grass site for two tent's a fire ring with grill insert and a picnic table. There's another cool rock structure called Mexican hat which is about 30 minutes east and if you drive a little over an hour you can visit the four corners.
GuidePretty much the only choice in Monument Valley currently due to COVID. Amenities are very nice. This KOA is still pretty new, so the trees are small offering little to no shade. The owner really cares & will do what he can to see that you're satisfied. He lent me am extension cord so I could make coffee since all fires were restricted, (my camp stove is a wood burning SoloStove).
Be warned, lights in the showers are motion sensors, it doesn't quite go black, but it will get darker, just open the shower door to activate.
TravelerWow. We set up our tent and explored the area. But this campground was incredible. The bathrooms are so clean, they’re practically brand new. We watched the most beautiful sunset over the landscape. Be warned - there’s a very friendly wild dog that likes to say hello. At least while we were there. She friendly and just wants some company. She did bark at night though with a few other dogs. Nothing to be concerned about. This area is so desolate it’s breathtaking.
LegendWe 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
RangerThis KOA is located right across the road from soem of the manor buttes in Monumewnt Valley, right in the heart of Navaho Country. We discovered this campground on our first trip to the American Southwest post COVID. This facility is newly owned and very well updated by way of lavatories, showers and laundry facilities (immaculate). The owners are extremely friendly and connected to the guests. All the sites have full hookups and there are additional services provided on the site such as jeep rentals, Navaho tours and horse rides. We are satisfied with the accommodations and would come again if wevever re-visit this area. Very nice maangement!
GuideThis is a very new, very small KOA. Trees are newly planted and sites are SMALL. If you like your front yard to contain your neighbors "poop-shoot", water line and electric box, then this is for you. With all the open land, it's too bad this campground couldn't double (or triple) the site sizes. Staff seem great but camping is about being outdoors and enjoying nature. I don't want to feel like I'm living in an apartment when camping. This campground just wasn't for us.
ScoutThis is Monument Valley Koa. It is fairly new. Gravel roads and sites. Clean and we'll kept. There are new small trees planted, but no shade. The sites are large and the roads are wide. Plenty of room for larger rigs. We had only 1X Verizon service. We could receive and send texts. They have wifi, but it is slow. They tell you that on their website. You will not stream video. It is remote here. The staff we encountered was great. We would stay here again, if we came to this area. 4 stars only because slow internet and barely have cell service.
TravelerMy fiancé and I spent a night here of our 1 month long roadtrip. Pros: Super Close to Monument valley, friendly staff, clean 24hr facilities, running water. Beautiful view if the stars and planets.
Con: Really close to highway that’s a little noisy but if you’re unbothered by that it’s the perfect spot for a one to two night stay.
GuideGot there at about 4ish-5. Was pretty hot, but simmered down after the festivities. Great photos were taken.
ScoutWe got this site on a whim, paid around 55$ for a night. Has showers, bathrooms, fire pits. Beautiful views. Can’t complain.
GuideWe enjoyed our stay at this KOA for a few nights. We were here right before a cold front moved through in the late fall. The views were a true 360 degree experience and we enjoyed a fire as the sun set and we watched the stars come out.
This campground had everything we needed and was very clean.
RangerWhat can I say - it was pouring rain and our free, dispersed campground was washed out! We called Gouldings, but they were full. The KOA had a pull thru full hook up site. We are trying to camp on a budget, and at nearly $150 a night, the budget was blown. I do want to say that we really really enjoyed having full hook ups and had a chance to catch up on Laundry, so there’s that. Also, it was very close to Monument Valley and we had fun. We were able to scout out our next camping location as well. The Wi-Fi was down for a while and then it started working. It was not busy in the campground. They had a very nice dog park. All in all, we really liked the park, just not the price!
GuideIt’s a nice spot if you don’t want to boondock but it is pricey for being a gravel parking lot. Sure there’s a dog area and a little playground but nearly $100/night seems a little steep, even if the bathrooms are very clean.
TravelerThe camping facilities, including the showers, are impeccably clean. Despite our heater malfunctioning, the kind staff generously offered us theirs for the night. The sense of community here is truly exceptional. I absolutely adore this place!
LegendNot very big, but adequate. About 5 miles from the Monument Valley Tribal Visitors Center. Nice grassy playground. Fenced dog run but be aware that smaller dogs can easily go under the gate. Staff is nice and friendly. My only complaint is that while the bathrooms are clean and have ADA showers with seats, there is no ramp to get into the building itself. The step isn’t big, but a person in a wheelchair will have difficulty without assistance.
TravelerCampground was awesome! Had very clean toilets and showers, as well as washing machines and dryers! (It costs about $2 to wash laundry by the way). The campground had a gorgeous view of the monuments and the woman in the main office was very helpful and kind! It can get windy in this area so be mindful when you go tent camping here, and bring something to make sure that your tent is weighed down! Other than that the campsite was great.
RangerSimple campground with clean bathrooms and showers. Bonus to have a fenced in albeit small dog run. Playground is good for older kids, too big for our tot. Not a lot of shade or protection from the wind but we were just there for a night. Great views to wake up to and the night sky was breathtaking.
Road traffic was consistent but not overwhelming
TravelerFirst, 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.
LegendGeneral: 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.
RangerNice clean park, friendly helpful folks, nice laundry room. Really close to Monument Valley.
We had a full hookup drive through site with lots of room. We took an amazing Monument Valley tour that picked us up at the campground- highly recommend.
GuideGreat Time with great people

Closed for 2021 (camping)
TravelerThe RV sites are really more of a gravel parking lot. The view might be great for the walk in sites but for RVs you really see more of the cabins backsides or washroom than the actual panorama. Facilities ok, but not great. Also no wifi
LegendThe View Campground is located in Monument Valley on the Navajo Tribal land. There is an additional $5 fee to enter the tribal area, in addition to the camping fee. The campground area consists of RV sites (basically a series of parking spots parallel to each other with a picnic table), and the tent sites are hike-in only from the parking area. We stayed one night in a campervan in an RV site. I reserved the site ahead of time, and on arrival we were given a map with the occupied sites marked off, and we were able to choose our own site from the remaining sites. It's not called "the View" for nothing! Our site had a phenomenal view of the Mittens, and sunrise and sunset were stunning. While there we drove the 17 mile scenic drive around the monuments, and in the morning ran the 4 mile Wildcat trail. What a unique place to stay. It was VERY windy when we were there, but we were able to position our van so that cooking, etc. wasn't an issue. There are cabins adjacent to the camping area, and a hotel and store on the way in (we didn't stop at this). The staff were very friendly. Bathrooms were very clean and showers were available at no extra cost, which was great! (we were given an access code to the bathrooms on check in). No fires were allowed. The site is pretty pricey as it is essentially a bare parking spot; but this is the most beautiful parking spot I have ever slept in ;). Potable water was available at the far end of the campground. A one night stay was perfect for us to experience the area. The camp sites are not great for just hanging around at, but there are other tours (jeep, horseback) that you could take advantage of.
Camp site was about $40. A credit card was required for the camp site. The park entry fee was cash only. Sites ~17 - 24 (or 25, can't remember) had the most unobstructed view.
ScoutI called to inquire about rates and the very friendly woman on the phone informed me that ALL camping is closed for 2022.
RangerNothing is really going to jump out at you here and really say that it’s amazing or breathtaking. The view during sunset are probably beautiful but we were here on a cloudy day so we didn’t see much of that beauty. The campsite for us was a little run down and it was very dirty, which was probably just the wind. Close drive to the park and going around is so many hikes.
TravelerStunning views from every angle. Hike-in for tents but drive-in for campers & RVs. Sunsets and the stars are breathtaking. No pets (at least for tent sites), clean bathrooms, walking distance from hotel/restaurant that they have on site. Must reserve online for peak seasons. If going to monument valley, I highly recommend stopping here!
