Sleeping Bear Campground

$25 a night for this lovely scenic spot. Each camp spot has a coal grill, fire pit, and a picnic table with a sunshade. The ground was flat for my tent and the dirt road was short and well maintained.

The owners were nice and communicated well! One person came around and got cash from everyone.

Similar to dispersed camping but nice to have a picnic table and fire ring. And awesome views! Camp host comes around for $25 fee so have cash on hand.

I absolutely love this primitive campground. The views are spectacular, it is quiet and secluded. (Some road noise, but it dies down later) I would highly recommend site 7 for the views. We were in a 33ft toy hauler and had no problems with the dirt road and room to pull thru. Dirt pads but fairly level.

We were the only ones camping here that night and could choose our spot. Access is through an easy dirt road. Amazing views at sunset, quiet, and we saw horses around in the morning. Wonderful.

It’s a dry camping spot. We didn’t see wild animals around. Has a Porta-potty in the campground. Nice views and not too many people in the campground. 25$ per night host came to welcome us and collect the payment.

We camped here for two nights in mid September - site #2. it was really quiet with beautiful views of Monument Valley.

The campsite was big and had a picnic table and shade covering. It also had a rock fire ring.

The owner Laura came by each night to collect the $25 fee. She was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. 

I would highly recommend this campground.

Prons: 25 dollars per night, viewpoint is amazing, quiet

Cons: No shower, dirty toilets, no water, no trash bins

The owners are very nice people, the views are great. Instead of just driving through we had time to go explore the Valley of the Gods and the surrounding area. We were tent camping and were quite comfortable. I would definitely camp there again. The night sky is hard to top. Rod and Valerie

Only stayed for one night but the view was awesome and was literally no one else in the entire campsite (whilst other sites down the road were fully booked). Owners were very nice and offered great advice.

We stayed one night $25, instead of $60 at others nearby. First come, first go. No water and a dixi as ‘restroom’. Beautiful quiet place. Money gets collected in the evening.

Having drove past the packed KOA campground in Monument Vally, we arrived at Sleeping Bear with huge smiles on our faces... couldn't believe what a beautiful location it was and only one other van there!! OMG, desert camping at its best :-) only sad we only had one night there on our Utah road trip. A lovely young lady came to collect the $25? around 8pm, had a nice chat, she told us about the camps history and the formations surrounding us. We went on a horseback ride with Joe Atene, the entrance to which is very close to Sleeping Bear (see on Google maps). Note there are no signs on the main road to the campsite, just follow Google.

Would highly recommend to anyone staying in the area, provided you don't need any facilities, just peace and quiet. The road was in decent condition, our RV was 8m long and no issues at all with parking. some large parking spots are available.

We a great night staying at sleeping bear campground. First in first serve camping which we were the only people there January 5th. A little cold overnight so I wouldn’t recommend a tent this time of year.

Awesome views. Quiet and away from the overbooked sites. The owners are kind and so welcoming! I would highly recommend.

Arrived at 4:30 ish- just before the “golden hour” when the sunrays have a magic honey tone. The site doesn't have much for amenities BUT more than makes up for that with views. Camp host was really friendly, came by just after we got our tent up. Luckily it was a clear night and we got to view the milky way.

We arrived at 1 PM with no one else there and picked the best spot. At about 5 PM people began coming in to where the park was approximately 75% full by 9 PM. There was 3G, T-mobile cell phone service. The owner is pleasant and will come by after you have picked your spot to collect. Which spot includes a picnic table covered by slats and they fire ring. There are restrooms as well.

Went on a birthday road trip, with one of the main goals being getting to Monument Valley for sunrise photos. The site is super easy to find, has wonderful views, super clean pit toilets, and great for the price point. The very friendly owner came by several times to make sure we had everything we needed. I wish we'd stayed more than one night.

It has porta potties, tables and bbq pits with fireplace. Nobody came to check on me or charge me but I did have noisy drunk neighbors but other then that it was not bad!

Had barely one bar of service for Verizon

I would stay here again no doubt!

Loved waking up to the gorgeous views. Definitely primitive, but loved the seclusion. Host was very friendly. Grill and picnic tables close by. Entire site to ourselves absolutely perfect.
