We had a great night there. Traffic wasn’t too noisy and the view was gorgeous in the morning. Beware of the loose sand though! Stay on the gravel area!
TravelerGreat place to spend a night, with few trucks and little road noise.

Lots of flat area in the trees and views of the canyon. SO QUIET!
TravelerConvenient location on the outskirts of Page. It's just a big layby so there's no privacy and you can hear the noise from the road but it did the job for the night

This is one of the reviews that I'm just now getting around to now that cooler weather has set in. I was here in September last year while on my annual naked road trip, and this area is one of my favorites. It's the perfect place to camp, relax and enjoy nature. Not crowded, lots of space, no one cares if you're nude or not. There was plenty of space between campers so you can have as much privacy as you want. Several people were camped naked here same as me, some were not. No one cared. The lake level has really gone down low, so it's a hike to get to the water, but there's nothing wrong with a nice nude hike with a day in the water at the end. Perfect naked campout location and I'll definitely be back.

Fit my 22' TT without issue. Road is a bit rocky to get into the better sites, but there is a spot right off the turnoff that would accommodate bigger rigs. Woke up to a herd of Elk grazing outside the camper and a gorgeous sunrise. Will definitely stop here again when I'm coming through

A beautiful camp to set up RVs, vans, and tents. Plenty of space. There were several others here and did not feel close to anyone. Fire pits are available, but they are just slightly dug holes with small rocks. Recommend reinforcing the rocks before use.

Calf Creek campground was full and the host told us about this spot. Up a dirt road you end up just below the radio tower. Very private and quiet
TravelerBumpy dirt road going in. Large area with plenty of private dispersed camping spots.
TravelerThis is just a pull out off the hwy. Sign says no camping.

We liked this spot however we could not go in very far due to the fact that our trailer has low clearance. There are a lot of long ruts from water run off.
There are two dumpsters near the entrance. Area was clean and good cell service.
Location is ideal for area slot canyons etc.
Guide
Although the sand wasn’t a surprise, i was shocked at how much it stuck to everything LOL! But the site had lots of dedicated spots for camping and went on the quite a few miles. The view was beautiful, but we were nervous about mountain lions as we noticed a lot of tracks when we arrived, and saw even more next to our car in the morning as we were leaving. The road in isn’t very rough, just lots of sand and small bumps. Would stay here again!
LegendOpen spot with plenty of room and nice bridge view. Shared with truckers who leave their engine running all night, so not for light sleepers. Road noise was minimal overnight. No bathroom. No water. Felt safe.
LegendThis area is close to the summit elevation of Boulder Mt at 9550 elv. A rough rocky road leaves a scenic pull off all g hwy #12 and heads to some Aspen stands and a corral. The best sites are in the vicinity of the corral. Good cell signal, but no water, no dumpsters, however the views are great. In the fall season, the yellow aspens are spectacular.
