I was the only one here for two nights - not surprised given it is winter and mid-week. Great little spot to chill and enjoy the view. Had full mobile service. Town was just a short jaunt away. Very quiet, and even though I was close to the dirt road there were only a handful of cars that passed.

Road in was good as were roads to sites. Slow going due to washboard but easy going. Lots of sites spread throughout. Quiet and close to Escalante! Sites are just basic space with trees. No tables or fire pit which was fine and its why I gave it a 4. Great service. Was able to use my hotspot and laptop for work.

Beautiful open dispersed camping on the right side. Our site was on a bluff with a beautiful view. Only 3 other campers near us, the closest about 100 feet away. We pulled off the road so didn’t have a problem with dust.

This camp site is dusty and as crowded as a KOA. Every camp site is near one of many dusty roads that cross cross the camp site, so your gear will inevitably get filthy.

This camp site is dusty and as crowded as a KOA. Every camp site is near one of many dusty roads that cross cross the camp site, so your gear will inevitably get filthy. The roads are rutted and not easily passable by regular car; some of the roads are so deeply rutted, I couldn’t even attempt to drive on them without bottoming out, so I couldn’t get far past the turnout from the main road. The campers are so close together, I can hear people snoring. People were still driving in at 11pm on a Monday to set up camp, and RV campers were still loudly partying till midnight. The land here is full of shale, so site prep for tent camping is extremely difficult, and driving tent stakes is nearly impossible. Better bring MSR Groundhogs, because those cheap hook stakes will NOT work here. I seriously hate this camp site. If I had gotten here before dark, I would have gone somewhere else. Do not recommend

I was constantly harassed here, in one day I wound up relocating to three different sites to avoid people being dicks. I think one group of people even pursued me from site to site. For me it was Probably a combination of queer/trans phobia and classism. But I would say if your not really white and enfranchised and even monied you might have a negative experience at this well populated but beautiful site. Which is less dispersed and more an expansive and rugged campground. Primitive off course too. The cell service and garbage service is nice. But it attracts a density of assholes.

Lots of open space, always someone here, we arrived on a weds, and did not feel alone. Beautiful Mountain View’s, close to everything you want to be close to. Trash service, fire pits (make shift from other campers). And it’s all free, amazing!

It was WINDY and dusty when we arrived which made it a PITA to find a quality spot without a constant dust storm in your face. I’m sure it’s very pleasant when not windy. I would still stay here again. Great cell service!

Stayed two nights in Apr 2020. Location is a central to Escalante, Boulder, and many slots off of Hole in the Rock Road. Sites a spaced apart so you don’t notice your neighbor. The area is relatively clean except out site had an abandoned awning. The area is dusty so be prepared to manage dirt getting everywhere. Would stay here again.
