The spectacular beauty of this campground, its terrific value for money, (especially if you're a senior with Golden Age passport) terrific access to hiking trails, majestic silence and stars at night, combined with nice scenic and spacious well-separated paved sites with picnic table etc., more than make up for the lack of facilities. Decent flush toilets but no showers or hook ups. You'll definitely need a reservation though and no wonder. Generators only from 8am to 10am and 4pm to 8pm made it a little tough on us early morning coffee drinkers. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Primitive camping, no hookups, no dump station. There are a few places in the park where water is available. We camped in site #1 which was just big enough for our 33' 5th wheel. This site was secluded but most sites are out in the open. If you enjoy primitive camping in a beautiful setting, you will love this place, 18 miles from the entrance. Great stargazing on clear nights. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

In 2003 Arches NP started accepting reservations for some sites. Thankfully this reduces the crazy early AM stampede to find vacant sites that held true here when everything was first-come first-served. The CG itself is in a beautiful location at the end of the park access road. It primarily caters to tent campers and there are fairly limited hours when you can use your gen-set. Most site parking pads are short but there are a few that can accomodate rigs up to 32 feet or so. If you like boondocking in the redrocks you must stay here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
