The View Campground May Just Be The Disneyland Of Arizona Campgrounds
Monument Valley is one of the most well-known natural wonders on earth, drawing many thousands of visitors each year. Tourists usually just visit for one day, but in doing so, miss out on the best times to marvel at the breathtaking scenery: sunrise and sunset. The View Campground lets you extend your Monument Valley experience overnight, with tent and RV sites, cabins, and even hotel rooms that offer a front row seat to the iconic red sandstone buttes.
Overlooking the world-famous red sandstone buttes of Monument Valley, The View Campground is so named for good reason.
You'll enjoy a full bath, refrigerator, microwave, and private porch, so you can sip your morning coffee while watching the first tendrils of daylight dance across the horizon. Guests will need to bring their own kitchen items (such as plates, cups, etc.) and toiletries, as they are not provided.
If you'd prefer even fancier accommodations, The View Hotel is located in the park itself on the Utah side.
It's also worth noting that the cabins in the front row are more expensive than those further back, but this is already a once-in-a-lifetime experience - why not pay a little extra to make it as special as possible?
Whether you're staying in a tent, RV, cabin, or hotel room, one thing is the same across the board: the sunrises and sunsets are easily among the most breathtaking you've ever seen.
Since there are no big cities for miles in any direction, the night sky is littered with millions of stars from dusk until dawn.
To learn more about the campground, including nightly rates for all three different accommodations, and/or to book your stay, visit its official website.
