The campground was perfect. We were able to snag the site after a cancellation and was so happy to be able to stay within the park. We had beautiful views from our site and were able to walk to the trailhead for a hike to Broken Arch. The restrooms were clean.

Better signage needed for people walking the trail where it goes past the restrooms; we had numerous people walk through our camp site while looking for where to pick up the trail. Very friendly staffing at the nature center and the camp hosts :)

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.

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.

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.

This is a great campground. There are no showers, but there are clean restrooms. The lines were long to get into the park since it was peak summer travel season. Staying in this campground made it nice to not have to wait in line to get into the park each day since youre already in the park. Watch out for the ravens. They will try to steal anything you leave out that they mistake for food.

Fantastic place to camp. Starting the hike from our campground is simply fantastic. Good views on the typical rock formations of Arches and the quietness of the campground is perfect

Stunning views and trails! It is blistery hot so prepare to create some shade!

Our site was nice and the hosts were friendly and informative. However, traffic on the campground loop was heavy at times with people driving rigs too fast looking for camping space. No Ranger presence, kids climbing on rock formations, loud and unruly, loose dogs on some trails, The new and growing generation of campers are generally have a disregard for fellow campers, dont seem to feel any rules apply to them, and drive well over the posted speed limit. The Park Service needs to up its game in terms of an active presence and enforcement of park and campground rules.

Wow! What a great campground in a beautiful setting! We loved our stay here. Felt so lucky to ge staying right in the park. It was quiet at night and close to many trails. The campground host was very friendly and helpful too.

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.
