A very nice but small camp site. It is in a treed area. There is a very clean flush toilet but no shower.

@BradK3904986 · Camped on Mar 24, 2025 at Campsite #12

Quiet and convenient.

@CraigH8329221 · Camped on Mar 24, 2025 at Campsite #14

Older, smaller campground with mostly tens and vans. Flush toilets (two seats for whole campground) and no showers. Beautiful views of cliffs through trees. Was the quietest , darkest campground Ive ever stayed in. Completely quiet at 8 oclock. Loved it!

@DominicCF89A43 · Camped on Mar 22, 2025 at Campsite #12

Gorgeous campground in the trees providing plenty of shade. We saw coati ambling through the campsite next to us. One of the better NPS campgrounds we've been to.

@BethH1585808 · Camped on Mar 22, 2025 at Campsite #20

Beautiful campground nestled amongst trees on the canyon floor. No hook-ups but water and flush toilets are close by. Loved the dog friendly hike from the campground to the Far Away Ranch! Dont miss going to the top for the views!

@ThomasR5111286 · Camped on Mar 17, 2025 at Campsite #20

Super clean campsite and bathrooms. Very close to hiking trails.

@WhitneySFC4D8D · Camped on Mar 14, 2025 at Campsite #3

We stayed in site 3, which was great except for the Mexican Jays that were very intent on stealing whatever food they could. This campground has smaller sites and a few dips in the road that make it inaccessible for larger trailers/RVs. Our 13-foot trailer and Tacoma fit just fine. We loved the trail from the campground to Faraway Ranch.

@Christine21830 · Camped on Mar 14, 2025 at Campsite #25

Lovely little Campground.

@KristenP1F9FD5 · Camped on Mar 10, 2025 at Campsite #12

Lovely campground and park. Everyone was very respectful and quiet. Hosts checked in and made sure we had what we needed.

@terrellp70B1A0 · Camped on Mar 6, 2025 at Campsite #20

We arrived with the weather changing to right at freezing temperatures. We were able to drive to the top and back down before settling into camp for the night. It was a bit too windy and cold to hike but the drive and views were awesome! We woke up to snow the next day and the road up to the top was closed. It was a great experience to see a little snow and we took advantage off the down day to relax mostly inside the RV with a little walk outside for a bit.

@DeniseW6070805 · Camped on Mar 4, 2025 at Campsite #24

Camp host welcomed us and offered to bring us a hiking map. Fellow campers were quiet, dogs were on leash and the campground was very clean. The bathrooms were clean and warm.

@BrianA4348148 · Camped on Mar 3, 2025 at Campsite #11

Pleasant experience. Quiet campground. Wonderful environment!

@LauraJ3772642 · Camped on Mar 3, 2025 at Campsite #6

Such a SPECIAL place. Although the weather was unpredictable, the wildlife in the campground made up for it (wild turkeys, acorn woodpeckers, and the best were the gray breasted jays that would eat peanuts out of hand).

@austinw983DE8F · Camped on Mar 2, 2025 at Campsite #2

Nice small, quiet campground.

@BruceB5637806 · Camped on Feb 26, 2025 at Campsite #2

Great experience

@KearstenE47F9E · Camped on Feb 25, 2025 at Campsite #1

The campground is very nice and clean and quiet. Saw some deer in the morning, and various other wildlife. Its definitely a drive out there but its beautiful and glad we got to experience it!

@LoriL4747115 · Camped on Feb 24, 2025 at Campsite #3

I love this little campground. It is quiet, beautiful and lots of hiking in the hoodoos.

@JereWCC69849F6 · Camped on Feb 23, 2025 at Campsite #8

Rangers were quite helpful at this national monument gem!Wonderful hikes, wildlife, twilights and night skies!

@RobertH1222975 · Camped on Feb 19, 2025 at Campsite #6

Space #6 is a great camp spot, with good privacy & space, & good star viewing gap in the trees, plus a good level site. Love the entire park; hiking at every level & distance, to amazing rock formations. Our 1st trip here but, def not our last. Thanks NP's :-)

@AliceM9772628 · Camped on Feb 19, 2025 at Campsite #18

It was not easy to use Rec.gov to get reservations. You cannot get internet at the campground and it is not clear how to use the app. The camp host was considerate and helpful. The campground was clean and quiet

@RichardS712869 · Camped on Feb 19, 2025 at Campsite #3

Quiet campground with nice facilities and convenient access to the trails. COs were very helpful especially the shuttle bus driver.

@RobertH1222975 · Camped on Feb 18, 2025 at Campsite #13

This is a nice campground, with good privacy in many sites. The only issue in space 13 is its a little tough to find a level parking spot in our van. The space is quite large with great view of cliffs, which def outweighed the sloped parking.

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado
