"This was a favorite spot on our 2 week trip around the southwest. We were here a week before opening season (the first week of March)."
"Launch your boat at the Bullfrog Marina, then pick any spot on the ENTIRE LAKE! We drove a houseboat and moored/anchored in Good Hope Bay, which is a 2-3 hour houseboat ride (averaging 8.4 mph)."
"Nice campground with clean showers, toilets and even a little inside pool. Apparently booked the last spot but there were at least 5 empty places the night we stayed here."
"This is a really nice campground within Navajo Nation near Monument Valley Park. With tax, we paid $47 for full hookups."
"This RV park is located within the National Park so you have to pay to enter park grounds at the Ranger Station. The spot are large and it looks like they can accommodate everything up to a tour bus."
"The location is perfect, 1 minute from the marina."
$37 - $90 / night
"The RV sites are typically pull through and both 30 AMP and 50 AMP are available. Nothing hyper here, but a well maintained park with nice restrooms and showers and a laundry."
"We been dispersed camping with a camper van for a week and this RV park was everything we needed: laundry, showers, recharge devices with power along with the dump, all within a few steps."
$73 - $80 / night
"Large sites (gently sloped) with picnic table. It's spacious and quiet."
"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."
"I’ve stayed at this campground, which is located in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and run by Aramark, twice."
"The tent sites include a sandy pad for your tent, picnic table, fire ring, camp fire grill, and parking space. Bathrooms are close to the campsites and were clean."
$25 - $250 / night
"We arrived here in a winter storm and were very happy to find an open RV park as most campgrounds and other RV parks were closed for the season."
"We enjoyed two nights at this park with our travel trailer. The washrooms and laundry facilities were kept very clean and wash shower had a cloth and bath mat."
$28 - $125 / night
"Cheapest 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."
"This campground is just on the outskirts of town. Coppermine Road is pretty busy during the day, but eventually quiets down at night.
This is a well established campground."
"During the day on the weekend more people showed up for day use but there weren't ever more than 30 people on a HUGE stretch of beach. The beach can accommodate any size rig easily."
"We chose this site for the rare opportunity to camp right by the shores of Lake Powell."
TravelerThis is a great RV Park. The location is superb. The space between sites is very generous. Interior roads are very easy to navigate for big rigs. Very quiet at night. This place is designed right. Site was big enough for our 40 foot 5th wheel. The views of Lake Powell were awesome! The campground is maintained very well. Wifi is almost useless and there is no cable. Due to the location there are no TV channels with antennas. My only reason for not giving it five stars was the staff in the camp store/ registration. We have been to many campgrounds and the staff in the camp store were some of the worst we have ever dealt with. They do not greet you or smile. If you ask a question you will get an answer that is probably incorrect. They do not try to help or explain anything. We camped at Wahweap RV and Campground in a Fifth Wheel.
TravelerWe camped here Feb 4-7 2021 and there were about 4-5 other campers on over a mile of beach. Our nearest neighbor was about 100 yards away. During the day on the weekend more people showed up for day use but there weren't ever more than 30 people on a HUGE stretch of beach. The beach can accommodate any size rig easily. The most important thing to remember when getting there.... SCOUT AHEAD! Either on foot or with a 4x4 so you can plan your route out to the beach. One wrong turn and you will be up to your frame in soft sand. But there are plenty of hard pack routes to get out there as long as you scout ahead. I saw a 45ft class A, I have a 35ft toy hauler, people were driving 2 wheel drive cars out there for the day. I did pull a Mini Cooper out that was stuck up to the frame and I almost got stuck with my 4x4 Ram truck. So planning is key. This is going to be one of my go to winter camping spots. I don't like camping with lots of people so Feb was perfect. Temps were high 50s during the day and lows were high 20s. Never more than a breeze and not a single bug to be found. Summer is a whole different story, I'm sure. Lake Powell is notorious for wind/sand storms in the afternoons but we didn't have any of that. The potable water fill, flush toilets, and showers were closed for the season but the vault toilets on the beach were open. The Pilot gas station that is a 3 minute drive has a dump station and potable water that worked out perfectly. I can't recommend this spot enough! YouTube video link: https://youtu.be/6hqRPstunaM
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
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.
TravelerThis is an older, smaller RV Park that has several cabins and a few tent sites. The RV sites are typically pull through and both 30 AMP and 50 AMP are available. Nothing hyper here, but a well maintained park with nice restrooms and showers and a laundry. Located next door to a recommended restaurant and within a half mile of Escalante Outfitters - Espresso, Pizza, Salads and books and gear for your Utah Canyons adventures. Also a half mile to the Official Visitor Center: BLM, NPS and USFS - to answer all your wandering questions.
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!
LegendThe campground is conveniently located close to Horseshoe Bend and Lake Powell. There are biking, hiking and running trails nearby. There is a playground with a trail around it in the campground, but there is not a dog park.
The sites are pull through, gravel sites with full hook-ups. They were slightly uneven, but spacious. The bathroom amenities weren’t clean, there was hair all over the shower. They also provide wagon rentals which looked pretty neat, if you don’t have a camper, but want to stay overnight in the area.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay but wouldn’t rate the bathroom/shower amenities highly.
LegendWe chose this site for the rare opportunity to camp right by the shores of Lake Powell. This is a large dispersed camping area managed by the national park system within the Glen Canyon national recreation area. There is a ton of space for vans RVs, vans, tents and many Outhouses spread out further back from the shore. Wide open beach to walk, hang out and have a campfire. Decent AT&T and Verizon cell reception. Stunning views at sunset and sunrise. Fantastic find!
RangerI’ve stayed at this campground, which is located in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and run by Aramark, twice. The views are exceptional and that’s why I’ve paid the nearly $100 a night to stay there.
The campground is lovely - concrete pads that are nicely spaced. Each site has a table, grill, and campfire ring. Each loop has its own bathroom. There is a campground store with showers and a cash only laundromat that is located very near the lower loops, but might be more of a drive for campers who in the higher loops.
The issue with this campground is that the store closes at 5pm and if you arrive afterwards, you aren’t getting your tokens for the shower (so you have to pay) or the WiFi password. You are just getting the view - and it’s magnificent!
It’s important to note you are paying a resort fee when you camp here and I think (but might be wrong) that entitles you to using the resort’s pool. The location is super close the beach, the Glen Canyon Dam, and boat rentals.
