Homolovi

The Good, the Clean, and the Wild Burros... Let’s be honest, finding a good state park is a gamble, but Homolovi is an absolute jackpot. Here is the breakdown of why you need to stay here: The Bathrooms (The Crown Jewel): First off, they have real, flushing toilets. No drop toilets here, folks. Your nostrils are safe. The only minor catch is that the water pressure is a little on the gentle side. It's perfectly fine for a standard rinse, but maybe don't plan on doing a deep shampooing of your hair or a high-pressure, deep-scrubbing of your nether regions. Adjust your expectations and your hygiene routine accordingly. The Staff: The ranger at the visitor center deserves a raise. She was incredibly friendly, super helpful, and just a delight to talk to. The Location: It’s ridiculously close to Winslow, Arizona. You can easily zip over into town, stand on a corner, and do all the touristy things your heart desires. The Locals: WILD DONKEYS. Honestly, need I say more? They’re running around being adorable, and they completely steal the show. The Campsites: Exceptionally well-maintained and perfectly level (your spine will thank you). It’s great for both tents and RVs, and comes fully loaded with picnic tables, fire pits, and actually has some shade. Bottom Line: Clean flushes, friendly rangers, wild burros, and a level place to sleep. 10/10 would get gently rinsed here again

An interesting site, tons of pottery shards strewn about made up for the dwellings being less prominent than other sites in the South West. Lots of info at the visitors center and multiple sites to enjoy and walk about after youve read up on the history a bit. Fun stop off of interstate 40.

Second time coming here! I love the pull through sites, the wide open spaces with long range views, visiting the ruins and learning the history of the area. The price for a night is quite reasonable. The state park is close to Winslow so we got to do the Route 66 thing plus load up on supplies from walmart and wash clothes at the laundromat minutes from the park .

What a lovely park to visit in the spring. So picturesque, lots of history, clean restrooms and showers, peace and quiet. The rangers and camp hosts were so friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful stay and hope to come again.

Lovely spot to visit even if you aren’t camping there. When we went, it was pretty empty which is surprising for Native American ruins. We saw donkeys and horses while driving through which was awesome! The walks are very easy and there’s tons to look at. The staff was very helpful and answered any questions we had.

Clean, warm bathrooms (we visited in February), spacious campsites with covered picnic tables and neat fire pits. Office staff /rangers were really nice and helpful.

Surprising nice campground! This was a last minute unplanned stay and turned out to be so nice! The sites were large and next close together. Each site had a covered area with a picnic table and fire ring. Showers were clean. Wild burros free roam the park which is really neat! We could hear them braying in evening when we were around the campfire. The ruins were really neat and there’s broken pottery everywhere! Overall a great park/campground, would stay here again!

This was a great place to camp while az was getting rain for days. It's up on a bit of a hill so we are fine. I really enjoyed watching the wild donkeys. We walked to homolovi in and loved seeing all of the pottery shards. Homolovi ii had more intact buildings and really nice walkway.

Such a beautiful park! I wish I could have stayed longer! The spots were great not to close. Most sites had a covered picnic table and grill. I was on site 5 and mine didn't have a cover but a nice tree that my picnic table was under. There was a restroom and look like showers but I didn't go in. The building itself looked new. It was pretty busy.

Loved our two night stopover here. There are showers and flush toilets that are all very well maintained and clean. The park is beautiful and very quiet ... no train noise but you see them off on the horizon and I know there are reviews of other parks that mention the noise so that was a bonus for us! The sites are large with a cabana and picnic table at each one. Just a 13 minute drive to the infamous "Standin' on the corner" location. Another review mentioned a very bumpy ride into the site, that has been fixed and it's not bad at all... would NOT stop me from going at all! Highly recommend this spot!

Amazing campground within the state park. Most sites have electric and water. There is a dump station and new bathrooms and showers. Views and sunsets are fantastic. Wild burros throughout the park and sometimes in the campground. Ancient Pueblo ruins within the park.

We had a great time at the park! We saw the coolest lizards, crows, donkeys and a wonderful view! The ranger at the visitor center was very knowledgeable and helpful. They also have an excellent gift shop.

Homolovi State Park is a hidden gem. The ancient Hopi ruins offer a fascinating glimpse into the past, and the peaceful desert landscape is perfect for quiet reflection. The campground is clean, with spacious sites and basic amenities. Sunsets and stargazing here are unforgettable. A must-visit for history buffs and nature lovers alike.

Extraordinary park to learn about the Hopi culture and archeology. Ranger Ken and Gwen are incredibly knowledgeable having spent 35 years at the park. We had the best tour and pottery demonstration rivaling any park I have ever been too. The campground is great and has 50 and 30-amp service and a sewer dump. The bathrooms are very clean and the views and space between campsites is great. Lots to see in the Winslow area, Crater. petrified forest, LaPosada,,,,, A must on your Arizona experience list!

What a beautiful campground. It is so convenient to I-40. We did see the ruins which are very interesting. The spots are nice and big and we even had two trees! We saw the wild burrows on and off the entire time. Would definitely return in the future.
