All of the camping spots were marked - my reservation was in place and clearly marked too. While the neighboring spots were VERY close together, there wasnt any issue with noise and the noise curfew (10pm - 8am) was followed. The facilities were, for their age and condition, well kept. I did see one guy taking a navy shower from one of the sinks in the mens bathroom - no rules posted against doing so. There is an outdoor sink for water and washing dishes (I didnt see anyone washing dishes while I was there). First night was raining and lightening - glad I wasnt in a tent. Very windy the next couple of days - dusty inside vehicles with open doors/windows. The Broken Arch Trail Viewpoint is connected to the campground and the Devils Garden Trailhead is next to the campground. I car camped (which is allowed). Overall, for the money, it was a great spot/deal.

Very few shady sites, beautiful views, especially from the Amphitheater and down in the loop. Mule deer came directly to our site, hiking Landscape arch trail requires to walk to the CG entrance.

Our tent camping experience at Devil's Garden campground, Arches National Park, among juniper and pinyon pine trees and wonderful sandstone formations, was exceptional. The Best! The restrooms were very clean, with t-paper supplies stocked, and floors mopped frequently. The camp hosts, Doug and Nancy, amiably friendly and helpful, went beyond the call of duty to make our stay very pleasant. The day hikes easily accessible from our campsite were wonderful, and the natural arches awe inspiring. In the visitor center, the movie that explained how the arches and rock formation are formed, was very helpful and a must-see.

Great campground close to some good hiking trails.

We really enjoyed our stay at this campground but there are some important things to know. NO POTABLE WATER or DUMP. So plan accordingly. We were only there 1 night so it wasn't a big deal, but if you're camping for multiple days you'll need to pre-plan. Otherwise... Nice big sites for #42 (I won't claim I paid attention to the others.), clean restrooms, almost totally level pad, but we were at the bottom of the hill, many others were not as level as us. The campground is at the very end of the park, so even after entering you'll be driving almost another half hour to the campground.

Really very nice campground within Arches NP, great view at the stars. Nice stories in the Amphitheatre.

Great hiking
@TharonM26E0FC7 · Camped on May 28, 2023 at Campsite #42
Paved sites, great spacing between sites, and the bathrooms were very clean! It is the desert, so very hot during the day, but wind was present when we’re we here to cook it down.

campground hosts were great! Very accommodating and helpful. They watched over the campground and were always cheerful and helpful. We enjoyed the campground and hope to visit again!

What can I saw - you're in Arches National Park. The campground is surrounded in rock formations making sunset a magical time. No hookups or grocery store inside park so come prepared. Potable water available. The campground is at the end of the main road. I started with the road to the delicate Arch and the viewpoints going toward Devil's Garden the first day. The next morning on the way back I stopped at the rest of the viewpoints. It gave me more time to do some short hikes and take pictures. It was an amazing adventure.

Gorgeous campsite and amazing view - did not look real! Bathroom was clean and water super helpful. Being in the park was fantastic. Park Rangers were so kind!
@ThaddeusG551 · Camped on Jun 2, 2021 at Campsite #42
Campground was fine; long drive to get to it. Take some shade cover since there are no trees to speak of. The arches and hikes are amazing.
@SorrelB650 · Camped on May 31, 2021 at Campsite #42
Really lovely campsite with decently clean rest houses.
@fredW337 · Camped on May 18, 2021 at Campsite #42
It was a good test of our skills of solving the "riddle of the arrows" that while pointing in the correct direction, were not easy to find, nor easy to "decipher" as to which was the correct trail to take. This as a great adventure filled with surprises at every turn. We found many dead ends, but found our way out. Just challenging enough while not requiring expert climbing skills. Highly recommend doing the self guided tour for the best experience.

Spectacular amphitheater, hope programs resume soon!
@MaureenF924 · Camped on Apr 18, 2021 at Campsite #42
Spectacular views! Had high winds one night, but otherwise a perfect campsite!
@MichaelF331 · Camped on Apr 9, 2021 at Campsite #42
Very nice campground. Well maintained, incredible views, nice spacing between sites. Clean restrooms. The Ranger was very helpful and friendly. Great hiking right from the campground.
