Bureau of Land Management's Kanab Field Office oversees this dispersed camping area located just off Hole in the Rock Road, approximately a quarter-mile from Utah Highway 24. The gravel road provides access to multiple camping spots spread across open terrain with views of surrounding cliffs and valley landscapes.
Campers find numerous site options with varying levels of seclusion. Most established spots include basic fire pits, though Brandon R. notes these "are just slightly dug holes with small rocks" and recommends reinforcing them before use. The area accommodates large RVs, with several reviewers successfully camping in rigs over 30 feet. Free-range cattle graze in the vicinity, so campers should watch for cow pies when walking around sites.
Cell service reaches most of the camping area, with AT&T users reporting decent coverage. Two dumpsters near the entrance provide trash disposal, though no other amenities exist on-site. The town of Escalante offers supplies and services for campgrounds near Escalante. Hole in the Rock Road continues past the camping area, providing access to hiking destinations like Zebra Slot Canyon for those with suitable vehicles to handle the washboarded surface.
A free camping permit is required and can be obtained at Devil's Garden down the road. Kelsey W. found the area "very hot" during early June days but comfortable once the sun set. Wind can create dusty conditions, particularly during spring months. The nearby Haycock Ranch Road BLM area provides additional dispersed options.
This spot works well for campers seeking free overnight stays with easy highway access and room for larger rigs.
