Arch Rock Campground

This is my personal favorite campsite of all time. Site 22 is particularly spectacular, as we were completely tucked away in our own little cove. Visited late October of 2025. We’re big fans of free camping, so we had high expectations after paying the camp site fee + day use fee + online reservation fee + out of state fee + surcharge fee (yes, five items total to reserve one campsite). That said, our expectations were blown away and I can’t give enough praise to this site. Perfect for families with kids who like to climb around. Cons: • There was so much pressure from the on-site water spigot that it shot out horizontally like a fire hose. We had to hold a sponge up to the opening and let it drip into a bucket in order to do dishes. • Too easy to get carried away climbing on all the rocks

If I could give it six stars I would! The setting is out of this world and the campsites are tucked in among the amazing red rock formations. Each site has a shaded picnic table, charcoal grill and fire ring with water close by. Pit toilets are reasonably clean. Still pretty hot in October, but cooler at night so we could open windows and run fans to be comfortable. We just hiked in the morning and evening and napped in the hot part of the day. The park is amazing, plan several days! As always, dogs leashed and picked up after, and leave your campsite cleaner than you found it! There is another campground in the park with RV hookups called Atlatl Rock campground. It is not quite as beautiful, but still lovely and if you need hookups it may be your place!

In late September still very hot at night. Site 29 was cooler as it wasn’t tucked into the rocks. All beautiful. Water by the site. Pit toilets. You can see the Milky Way but not dark sky because of Las Vegas.

Best campground with the beautiful rock formations. There is no power for your rv and you had solar maybe 6 hrs in December. But a must stay.

We reserved a site online two days prior and it was easy and convenient! The campground was nice and spread out and our site (27) backed into large rocks that gave some decent privacy. Considering it was the week of Christmas the campground was very quiet even though it was full, we barely heard anyone past 7pm and the vault toilets nearby were tidy. We would definitely stay here again! The stargazing at night was incredible as well. No cell service. The site included a tent pad, picnic table with shade, and a fire ring.

I absolutely love Valley of Fire!! I have been two times at Valley of Fire Arch Rock Campground. First time in November 2024 on campsite #7. It was located in a nice corner and had some privacy since some campsites are located in the middle and you are just a few meters away from other people. It has a ring for fire and a grill. Had water as well. No telephone reception at all (ATT). Restrooms were 2 minutes walking, no showers (only available at Atlatl Campround, 5mins on cars, and they had hot water). My second time was last week, I was on campsite #12, regards to privacy and space, this was definitely better, had a ring fire and a grill but water wasn’t working sadly. Campsite is pet friendly.

Absolute favourite campground! Such an epic secluded spot with super clean fire pits and level gravel spots, amazing to watch stars with no light pollution 😍

Great little campground with first come first served spots but not managed well. We arrived early in the day and secured a vacant lot only to return to our lot later in the evening to other people camping in our spot. The other people had packed up our camping chairs and moved their own camp in - apparently with permission from the ranger because they had proof they had reserved our spot online. The ranger had “run out” of reservation cards so hadn’t marked the site as reserved by them when we arrived (even though there were dozens of old reservation cards on each site that hadn’t been collected and wiped clean). Unfortunately there were no other vacant spots and we couldn’t find a ranger so we didn’t get our refund. We had to find another spot late at night. At no point was the “campground full” sign put out.
