Sunset Campground

No reservations available when I went in October, so get a spot early before the first-come-first-served spots are gone! Nice flushing toilets!

We went in early February and it was nearly abandoned. Everything was covered in about 3 feet of snow so we had to dig out the camp table and fire pit with a piece of wood we found. It was cold but so peaceful. Be sure and dress and pack for the weather if tent camping and bring tons of firewood to stay toasty in the cold evenings and brisk mornings. The other 2 people in the entire campground chose to sleep in their cars so to each their own.

Bring your bike to ride on the new bike trail that is in the park and extends out to Red Rock State Park!

Pack lots of water, always! Also bring a good camera

My kids loved the swap table at camp. Shuttle is best to use because parking lots fill up early. Make sure to sign up for the Moon Hike lotto and have proper hiking shoes!

What an amazing experience. This site is great, just a 5 minute walk to the canyon rim, which makes it so easy to head over and catch the hoodoos at sunrise/sunset. Definitely worth staying for a few nights. Everyone we encountered was friendly. We were very fortunate to score a first-come, first-served site, even though we arrived late.
