I've traversed that blacktop so many times and yet I missed the obvious: the sign for the Sand Island campground and petroglyphs. This campground is a great base for exploring the region and the adjacent boat launch area that hugs the San Juan River makes it even more pleasant. Of course, what lured me here is the large 300-foot long sandstone panel of petroglyphs that overlooks the campground. Thankfully protected by a fence, the images here are in very good condition with none of the bullet holes and routine vandalism that too often affects other sites. Over 1,000 images here date from 3000 BCE to AD 300 and are the result of many peoples: Ute, Navajo, Zuni, Hopi, Pueblo, and European ancestry, too. Some of the etched images no longer contrast well against the surface because desert varnish -- the dark mineral coating that coats stone over time -- has seeped into the crevices of the rock art. The nuanced surface simply attests to the age of these petroglyphs. Spend a night camping at Sand Island and you'll literally have a front row seat to ancient history.

Conveniently located near Blanding, Utah as a gateway to Bluff and other Utah southeast attractions. I scoped sites out on Google Earth and reserved site #11 for tent camping. Ample backing up space, great steel picnic table and separate gas stove stand. Looks like the campground hosts (which I never saw) had thrown in a couple of logs. Really quiet campround and the bathroom was spotless, plenty of TP and even air fresheners hanging. I did not have a chance to hike around the surrounding area but this was a great campground. I did some astrophotography at night and there was no light pollution.

The night sky is overwhelmingly gorgeous, and I can't remember lovelier stars than here. If only Van Gogh had visited. As it's the desert, the summer is overwhelmingly hot. The sun will attack you if you don't pay attention! It's Mario Bros 3, and the angry sun is swooping down everywhere. Also, the flies that come with the horses next door visit often, but we kept them at bay with our fan and fly swatters, and the scenery won out over the flies. The horses next door are a separate business but were actually great, and conveniently you can book different rides times right from the camp store. The bathhouses were sparkling, the laundry was conveniently next door. The bathhouse/laundry lighting was clever enough to be visible yet not detract from the stars. The camp store had practical and souvenir goods, and the staff were helpful. What a gorgeous spot. We'd come back again.

Extremely rocky, no campfires allowed, and a cheap/rough picnic table for you to use is all. There's no grass, it's just rough rock like someone turned a rough parking lot into a cheap campground by just calling it a campground. Also, to be honest, I didn't even go look at the showers or restrooms in the little hut that they have them in, I just left. I would recommend going for the sites for $10, turning around, and sleeping somewhere else, an extremely underwhelming campground.

If you plan to head to Monument Valley I would absolutely recommend a stay in the cabins here. I…read morebooked through the hotel website. It seems like they book out months in advance, fyi but I think I hit it just right. The cabins are small but very cute. Ours had a queen bed and a small alcove with bunk beds that had a door you could shut to separate for privacy. We had a fridge, microwave and Keurig. The bathroom was small but did offer a blow dryer and tiny bottles of shampoo and conditioner as well as a tiny round of soap. If four people are sharing you might plan to bring your own. There is a ceiling fan which helps with circulation. The porch gives you an amazing view of Monument Valley. Note: Cabins 1-17 have a row of cabins below them. You still get a decent view of the valley but I'd recommend booking cabins 18-29 which have unobstructed views. You are offered free breakfast at the hotel but it's really mediocre. I suggest bringing your own items/snacks. The hotel gives you vouchers for free water bottles every day and a $20 a day voucher at the gift shop for handmade goods. I wasn't going to use the vouchers, but with a sale going on and the two vouchers, I got a Navajo pot for free which was a nice souvenir. The restaurant is overpriced but unless you pack in your own food there's really nothing out here expect this or Goulding's Lodge. (There is a stand in Monument Valley called Linda's Frybread but I don't have enough information to post.) The food isn't terrible and the people are nice. Kayenta is about 30 minutes away and there is often construction on the roads so we didn't want to drive there for food. The thing is: this place is SO gorgeous and special. You feel lucky just to be hanging out in your cute little cabin with spectacular views. (We were in Cabin 12.) I loved my time here, took tons of photos, and would do it again. It's easy to overlook the prices or the inconveniences for what you get out of the experience.

My wife said that the laundry room was very clean but was a little pricier than most places we've stayed in the past few years. The indoor pool was nice but a bit chilly, there's an outdoor area to soak up the sun. Be sure you bring plenty of groceries as the local market is a bit pricey.

Monument Valley absolutely lives up to the hype. Towering red sandstone buttes rise from the desert floor, creating one of the most iconic landscapes in the American Southwest. The vast open spaces, dramatic silhouettes, rich Navajo history, and ever-changing light make this a place that's impossible to capture fully in a photo--apparently the rocks know how to work a camera better than I do. It was easy to understand why this incredible landscape has been featured in so many classic Westerns, road trips, and sweeping desert scenes. Every turn looked like a postcard, every angle looked familiar, and every view somehow still felt larger than life. A truly unforgettable stop. Note: There's a fee to get in the park, and then another fee to do the scenic drive. The road was very rough in some places, but so worth the views
