We stayed at Devils Garden Campground in October and had an amazing experience. The location is unbeatable—just minutes from the Devils Garden Trail, which makes early morning hikes super convenient. The campground itself is well-maintained. The restrooms were clean throughout our stay, and I really appreciated the designated area for washing dishes. The best sites for Tent Camping in my opinion are #3, #4, #25, and #26—great views and good privacy. Devils Garden is absolutely worth it. I’d definitely stay here again!

Nice campground with killer views! Sites are padded and spacious! Tucked away from the busy hubs and popular arches. A bit of a drive from the busy entrance so allow more time to pitch your tent or get settled before dark. Amenities include water, BBQ grill, fire pits, pit/flush toilets. Little to no cell coverage. Dress warm for extreme cold nights. Watch out for heavy rains or snow. Some drawbacks are it’s a bit of a drive from stores & resto & lack of cell coverage.

The campground is extremely well managed – the sites are clearly marked, well spaced, and offer beautiful surroundings. Everything was very clean, from the restrooms to the campsites themselves, which is impressive given how remote the area is. You can tell the rangers and staff take pride in keeping the campground in top shape. The only real downside is the lack of electric hookups. Like most national park campgrounds, Devils Garden is rustic, which we expected, but in mid-July, temperatures stayed around 104°F (40°C) even at night. While generators are allowed during certain hours, once quiet hours kicked in, it really felt like we were in the "Devil’s Garden" – nooooo. breeze….

The campsite is beautiful and has great access to hiking trails. However, tent campers be wary. We were unable to stake our tent at our site, because there was a very shallow layer of sand upon solid rock. We tried using bags of sand to anchor our tent but it was super windy (30+ mph gusts), but that wasn’t effective. We ended up tying our tent to the picnic table and putting all our gear in our tent to keep it from flying away. Our rain fly was acting as a sail too, so we ended up taking it off, and sand whipped through the mesh. Our site was also not flat, but could have been better at other sites 🤷🏻♀️ There was water on site, latrine, flush toilets, and sinks. No showers or soap (only hand sanitizer), so prepare to be gritty. There was also an amphitheater in the campground with evening ranger talks that we enjoyed. Overall, we loved Arches and the campground probably would be fine as an RV, but do not recommend for tents.

This campground was absolutely amazing, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Arches National Park. If you can, stay at Juniper Basin—it was hands down the highlight of our entire road trip. The scenery, atmosphere, and overall experience made it unforgettable. Perfect spot for exploring the park and making lasting memories. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and recommend it to friends and family.

We camped at the Devils Garden November 1, 2021, it was the first day for FF, camping. We scored a campsite in the a.m., as other campers were leaving. All the campsites are beautiful. Flush toilets, water, trash, fire rings are available. When we entered the park, it said campgrounds full, which was not true. It seems there is a disconnect between the park entrance and the campground. I can't wait to camp here again.

Beautiful campground! Great location with some of the best hikes in the park right at your doorstep. Broken Arch/Sand Dune Arch hike is one example. Landscape and Double O Arches are a must see as well.

You can't go wrong with the campgrounds at National Parks. Be careful when you book your site though to make sure it's big enough. I had booked a 20' site for my 19' trailer, and there wasn't enough room for my pickup truck. I was able to change to another site though that was great. Some sites are very nice concrete pads that are level, but some sites are just pullouts for vans/cars. Saw a coyote the first night, so watch your little pets. Also deer in the campground. Great views and friendly camp host. Very close to Devil's Garden hiking. Must see!

Three friends and I stayed two nights here this past summer and loved it! We stayed in site #6 and were a short walk from the dumpsters and bathrooms. The bathrooms are decent and have running water & flush toilets. The campsite itself was beautiful and a short walk to the Devil’s Garden trails. If you do stay in the summer, just be prepared for the heat - we woke up before sunrise and it was about 70°F out. We hiked around until about 11 am and by then it was getting pretty hot (90°+). Definitely a little dusty, but a gorgeous place to camp. Would definitely come back here!
