Sand Island Recreation Area — Bears Ears National Monument
Reviewed Sep. 25, 2021

Nice camp but hwy noisy

This review is for the campground. Total of 23 campsites in two loops. The 8 sites in loop A are for tenters and van campers...there is a vehicle length restriction posted. Loop B has 15 sites that are designed for larger campers, trailers and RVs. Scattered water spigots, vault toilets at both loops and a trash dumpster at entrance by the boat ramp area. 15$ nite for camping. 14 day limit. Sites are tucked into cottonwood trees and the San Juan River is close adjacent. In addition there are two group camping sites close to the boat ramp area. This seems to be the put in for floating the San Juan River down to??. Only issue and reason for only 4 stars was the constant truck traffic noise heard in Loop B due to the hwy 191 bridge close by.
