Nice campground with big sites. Some nice shade pavilions at a lot of the sites. Enough pit toilets for all. Water is available but no hookups. Nothing special but you can reserve sites online and the hosts are on top of things. I appreciate that.
If I could have a do over, I think that bikes would be a ton of fun at Red Rock. Also a few more days to explore it all.
Dispersed camping. We came on a weekday afternoon and had a great time. Drove about a mile and a quarter back the road and found a couple really good spots. I’m sure you could go back further.
Wind was WICKED! Bring a kite.
Close to everything and way better than Furnace Creek if you ask me. Some tight spots up in the back corner. We picked one in the middle. No problem on a Monday in February. Sites for big RVs and tents too. Plenty of clean bathrooms and dishwashing stations. Ok ATT
I recommend walking to the back and exploring the hills.
Oh, and we saw coyotes here.
We got here Sunset on a Sunday night and stayed down by the gully. Just one night in an effort to see the whole park. Nice big sites but wide open so no privacy. Nice, clean bathrooms with flush toilets and the dishwashing station is nice to have access to.
Great stargazing!
This campground exceeded our expectations by a bunch. Very popular, but the sites are situated in a way as to make you feel like you are living in a cave. We were in a camper van, got there 3 pm on a Friday and were really lucky to get the last spot.
So much to see in the park itself. Check out the visitors center and Walk of Fire (7 Wonders connects and makes it an almost perfect half day loop.)
We recommend getting there early and on a weekday to get the cool spots up in Arch rock. You can probably park at the petroglyphs and watch for people pulling out. But any site at Valley of Fire is at least “pretty good”. If we could do it over, we would bring a tent and some gear and use the walkout sites at Atlatl. That last one up in the canyon might just be the coolest campsite I have ever seen.
