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.

We stayed here for 2 nights in October, 2019. We had our choice of many nice spots and chose one with a view of the beautiful Kaiparowits Plateau.

Hole In The Rock Rd is a bit washboard, but you are only on it for like 1/4 mile. The roads inside the camping area have big ruts and dry washouts (could be creeks in heavy rains, but I’m not sure) so I wouldn’t recommend arriving in the dark unless you know where you are going.

Hole In The Rock Rd is a bit washboard, but you are only on it for like 1/4 mile. The roads inside the camping area have big ruts and dry washouts (could be creeks in heavy rains, but I’m not sure) so I wouldn’t recommend arriving in the dark unless you know where you are going. But they are easy to navigate in daylight & with decent vehicle clearance. That being said there was a newer muscle car in there when we left, they just parked in the first area. This place must be huge because we saw about 10 cars drive in and they were out of sight. A few big busses, so definitely big rig friendly.

To access the camping, don't miss the right-hand turn about 1/4 mile down Hole in the Rock Rd (we missed it!) Once you turn, there are three roads that fork out. We went right to find a spot on the edge of the mesa. If it's raining, these roads can get slicked out, but if not, you can go down a bit - maybe a half mile to a mile. We fou... more

We went right to find a spot on the edge of the mesa. If it's raining, these roads can get slicked out, but if not, you can go down a bit - maybe a half mile to a mile. We found one right away. No issues with our 26-foot trailer. Saw Class A and all sorts of vehicles camped everywhere on this open and flat spot.

It's such a beautiful private and open space overlooking mountains and vast landscapes of fabulous nature. The drive in is about 5 miles from the Escalante town. Such a place of heaven on earth. ♥️👍🏻♥️

Lots of spots to pick from. When you enter, there is a triple Y in the road. If you go towards the left, there are some pretty big crevices in the road. We parked and walked for 15 minutes or so to find a site we liked. Only two other truck/van campers that we could see. Guess everyone else knew about the weather.
We’ll be back to explore at a cooler time.

We found Hole in the Rock camp site just off of BLM-200 Road. For us, this was a perfect area since it was wide open land, so we could turn our RV around easily with our car on the tow dolly and it was right near all of the hikes that we wanted to do. The price = free
From this base camp, we went to some amazing hikes; Peekaboo Gulch, Spooky Gulch, Devils Garden, and Zebra Slot Canyon. All of these hikes were down BLM-200 Road. We stayed here for two days. We even went into nearby town to fill up our Camelback’s and a Jerry jug with free water at the Escalante Visitor Center.
