Atlatl Rock Campground — Valley of Fire State Park

Loved loved loved it! The views are insane, lots of exploring around. The facilities are well maintained and the sites spacious. Would highly recommend! My only concern was the very bad cell signal and that the wifi costs 8$ per device per day.

Cute little campground. Busy, but fun as able to find a spot for one night. Try to get spot 8 if you can because it’s certainly the coolest spot backed right up to a huge rock

One of the most beautiful campgrounds ever. We had campground 8 and it was great. Very isolated and it had shade in the morning and evening. Unfortunately we only stayed a single night because the temperature was 108° during the day.

We’ve been here a few times now, and we always loved it. It’s very quiet in general, the spots are big, the neighbors are not directly on top of you, bathrooms are clean, check in process is very easy. There is wifi in the middle of the campground, we haven’t used it because we have starlink. Cell service is not good but it’s also not completely absent, we have Verizon. The weather in November & January was a lot cooler than expected. We had very cold winds in December and in January it rained. Every time we stayed here we saw Bighorn Sheep passing by our campground which was really neat.

Arch rock campground is further up the road from Atlanta campground. It used to be a first come first serve campground, but just this month changed to a reservation system. If a site is not reserved and it is after 3pm, you can pay the iron ranger $10 for the site. Arch rock sites are more scenic than the other campground, but also more primitive with just vault toilet and water spigots distributed throughout the camp. No electricity. Desert big horn sheep do frequent the area. It can be very hot temperature. Sites are only modestly separated with little screening. Though the sites further up the loop are more dispersed. Each site has sun shade, table, fire ring, and 12’x12’ tent pads. No T-Mobile.

Absolutely beautiful. Sites are amazing and well cared for. A little Expensive but expected due to amount of campers in area. In among the rock and cliffs, close but still nice. Bighorn herd in among the sites. Water fire rings, grills, close bathrooms. Would give a 10 star if easier to get a site. Come Nevada, enlarge your camp grounds, People love this life!  The rest of the park has great hikes and unbelievable scenic drives.

Camp among the rocks in this pretty campground. Amenities okay. The state park is a must see!

This was our second time camping here and it was just as beautiful as the first time. We got to the park around 8 and were able to get the last spot #37. Unfortunately it was an accessible spot but because it was the last to fill we were able to take it. The host let us know we “might” have to move if another spot opened. Nothing did so we were able to stay. It worked well since it was paved and it rained the first night we were there so nothing got muddy or dirty. And it was close to the bathroom/showers so my son who was camping in his 4Runner had easy access. The spaces are really large and some are right up to the beautiful red rocks. Our corgi puppy was in heaven climbing everything in sight. Cell service is bad throughout the park but you can get a Wi-Fi package for $20 for 3 days which works pretty well. Not enough to stream movies but enough to communicate.

If you like camping this is a must go to spot. Landscape is unlike any other, millions of years of erosion to create a breathtaking environment. They have both tent sites and RV sites. It does cost but there’s a self kiosk you can pay at. You can’t go wrong with any spot to camp at but the one’s towards the back were better in my opinion. They do have three spots in the back that are tents only that are pretty sweet spots. But overall it was a experience I will never forget and I will definitely be returning multiple times, especially since it’s only an hour away from Las Vegas. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stayed at the smaller of the two campgrounds. Beautiful rock formations to wake up to. Water available in campgrounds. Also potable water at dump station. Highly recommend.

Decided to do a one night trip not far from home. Stayed in site #17 was spacious with nice red rock behind us. The site was equipped with large table with shade structure, fire pit and separate grill. I hung my hammock of the shade structure as it’s solid steel and wouldn’t do any damage. The campground was clean including the facilities. They have showers, but I didn’t use them because I was only staying one night. Would recommend.

I arrived on a Thursday afternoon and there were plenty of sites available. I was there for two nights and the site did not fill up. Overall a very nice place each site has a fire ring, covered table. The pit toilets were clean. The park offered unique sights, My favorite were the petroglyphs.

This is a first come first serve campground so definitely get here early if you want a spot. Ignore the campground full sign because there’s a chance there may be a spot available.

We didn’t actually get to stay here since it was full but the place is beautiful and the campground is nice. They have electric hookups and everything else you want in a campground. There’s plenty of trails to explore and you may even see some goats on your way!

This was a very interesting campground. We pulled in about 9:30 on a Friday morning. The Atlatl campground was full but we found several available in the Arch Rock campground. If you get there in the morning ignore the campground full sign as they never change it due to the rapid changing of campers. The spots are unique and most have a canopy over the table. Ours did not but it was early enough in the season to not be a problem. Can’t give it 5 stars as the attention on the bathrooms was lacking. Ran out of toilet paper in both stalls for about 24 hours and could be cleaned more often.

RV area of this campground has nice big sites with 50 amp and 20 amp electric and water for $35 per night, and dump station located nearby in park. Beautifully set in red rock and desert landscape with big horned sheep wandering thru on occasion. Nice table and fire pit and bbq under shade on cement slab. Nearby hiking. Other sites for $25 w/o electric. Hot showers

This campground exceeded our expectations by a bunch. Very popular, but the sites are situated in a way as to make you feel like you are living in a cave. We were in a camper van, got there 3 pm on a Friday and were really lucky to get the last spot.

So much to see in the park itself. Check out the visitors center and Walk of Fire (7 Wonders connects and makes it an almost perfect half day loop.)

We recommend getting there early and on a weekday to get the cool spots up in Arch rock. You can probably park at the petroglyphs and watch for people pulling out. But any site at Valley of Fire is at least “pretty good”. If we could do it over, we would bring a tent and some gear and use the walkout sites at Atlatl. That last one up in the canyon might just be the coolest campsite I have ever seen.

This is also a great walk-in site and it’s the only one on this side of the rock. Lots of shade in the morning. Everything you need. Bathroom with a flush toilet is less than two minute walk. Bathroom with showers and flush toilet is about a 4 min walk. Very quiet and away from the main circle loop. It’s a walk-in site but it takes 30 seconds to walk in.

A walk-in site with everything you need. Table, tent pad, nearby water, bathroom 1.5 min walk. Showers 3 min walk.

We were tent camping in #21 which is a walk-in site and my fav of the three walk sites of this area. Only about a 45 second walk but there are only three campsite on this side of the rocks and it’s quiet. Once spigot for water. Trash cans. 2 mins walk to the bathroom. Tent pad, fire pit, grill, picnic table. It was perfect.

Beautiful campground with large private spaces. The spots are laid out nicely, the ones on the outer loop are set up to be pretty private. The first come first served situation could be unfortunate since it’s a long drive to anything else. I would have given 5 stars if it was reservable. We arrived on a Thursday afternoon and had several spots to pick from. But by Saturday morning it was packed. The Wi-Fi package was reasonably priced and worked pretty well.

Early, early, early! We arrived at 7am. Drive past the entrance and headed straight to the camp ground. First come first serve and it was filled up the entire time. We stayed Monday Oct 11 for 1 night. We got the first site and only site vacant. As we drove in we passed an RV for someone headed out to get an early start driving. That's what you want. We watched 40+ RVs drive thru at all hours of the day looking for a site but all were full and stayed full. If anyone left someone arrives to replace them. As we pulled out before we left the campground someone else was already in our spot. . . NOTE- if you arrive early you can pay your entrance fee when you pay for the camp spot. $ 10 entrance for residence $15 for non and $10 for non hookup site.

We decided to hit up valley of fire on our way from Vegas to Zion. It was crazy hot, but place is amazing. We stayed at site #8 had tons of space, very well kept, and tons of cool rocks to explore. Woke up to big horn sheep all around. Would definitely love to stay here again.

Visited today and this campsite is open. The other site Arch Rock is still closed. This area has tent and rv spots, as well as walk in tent sites along the back against the boulders. Very clean campsite and facilities. Many rv sites appeared to be almost perfectly level. Plenty of space between sites and lots of room to easily park a trailer and park your vehicle. Had many pull thrus for those large rigs. Water and electric hookups. Dump site is located at the entrance.

Stayed here in March when the weather was perfect. They have rv sites and tent camping. I typically pull my rig, but decided on tent camping for this adventure. Midweek there was plenty of sites to choose from. I was able to find a site that was situated between two large boulder areas, so I was completely secluded and had full privacy. The sites are already spaced out, but the extra barrier made me feel like I had the place to myself. The petroglyphs are a short drive or a good walking distance from the campsites. The facilities were clean and water spots throughout sites. Highly recommend camping at this place anytime but summer months, as it can get hot!

Drove in to camp. Unable to properly research campground due to poor connectivity before trip. Camping & entrance fee oer vehicle per night is $25. I would have stayed but I don't usually carry cash or checks. Decided to move on with my trip. Maybe stay next time I'm in the area.

We went the 19th through the 22nd of May and temp wise it was perfect! Windy at night (but we put our wind ties in and it was nice! Wind kept the bees away that was a plus!

What a epic experience we stayed at the Arch Campground. We love everything about Valley of Fire🙌🏾

If you’re looking for a quiet get away, alone and away from the world, don’t go here lol. Not a family man, wanted to be alone and enjoy my book. Instead try dispersed camping a couple miles from the entrance of the campground, on BLM land.
