Pull Dog Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Where is a good place to stay when visiting Monument Valley ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaH Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 When we were there, we stayed at the campground in the Monument. I've read about a lot of people staying at Goulding's Resort RV & Campground in Utah. There's also the Monument Valley KOA in Utah.

Big Greg Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 We enjoyed our stay at Goulding in the middle of Monument Valley, wish we could have stayed longer.

vermilye Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Gouldings if you need hookups, in the Monument Valley campground if you are willing to dry camp. A couple of other near by dry camping areas are Goosnecks State Park - inexpensive, and Valley of the Gods - free. Both offer great views and are rarely overcrowded.

remoandiris Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Another vote for Gouldings. If you are setup to boondock, Muley Point at the top of Moki Dugway offers PHENOMENAL views. IIRC, there is a campground in Mexican Hat, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailertraveler Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) It has been a few years, but we did stay at a commercial park in Mexican Hat. There is also a BLM campground on the River near Mexican Hat. I think it is called Sand Island and there is a petroglyph site nearby. When we were there, the roads in Valley of the Gods had caution signs to avoid in wet weather which is not very often.

2gypsies Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 We've stay in the park itself at the 'dry' campground. It's right in front of the famous 'Mittens' formation. We had a Jeep so did the scenic drive ourselves and early morning an late afternoon for different lighting for our pics. Beautiful place!!

Ray,IN Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) Gouldings is across the highway from the Indian reservation complex, which has(when we were there) a good restaurant, shops, etc. After we drove the dirt roads in the valley, as we were leaving (Aug) it hailed so hard and fast the roads were covered, hail ran down the side ditches about a foot deep, I had to stop until i could see the road again. An hour later it was 80° with sunshine again. When the folks who took the Indian-guided tours got back to Gouldings they were soaked-no top on vehicles. BTW, that is Tribal Park Loop, this self-drive circuit is very interesting and picture-friendly. Don't skip The valley of the Gods.

agesilaus Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 I'd stay in Goosenecks SP or the Valley of the Gods unless you need hookups. VoG is right at the bottom of the Moki Dugway as an added attraction. Neither one is that far from Monument Valley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankgibbons Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 My advice would be any of the small towns and hotels mentioned above, but don't give up on The View, check on line every day and at different times of day as we did and you might be lucky like we were, it really is worth it.
