What We Offer

Everything you need for a comfortable stay

From river access to trailheads, we've thoughtfully set up this campground so you can focus on what matters — the landscape and the quiet.

River Access

Steps from your campsite to the Colorado River. Float, fish, or simply sit and listen to the water move through Canyon de Chelly country.

RV Sites

Spacious pull-through and back-in sites accommodate a range of RV sizes. Each site offers a level pad with shade from native cottonwoods.

Tent Camping

Designated tent pads nestled among sand and sage. Pitch your tent under the widest desert sky you'll ever see — the Milky Way comes alive here.

Trail Access

Direct access to hiking and biking trails through Monument Valley and Canyon de Chelly. Ancient pueblo sites and sandstone arches await just beyond your campfire.

Parking on Site

Each site includes dedicated parking for your vehicle, so you never have to far-carry gear from a distant lot. Your rig stays right where you set it up.

Clean Restrooms

Well-maintained restroom facilities with hot showers, flush toilets, and potable water. A small comfort that makes a big difference after a day on the trail.

Our Story

A place to slow down and breathe in the desert air

Sand Island Campground sits on a quiet stretch of the Colorado River in Bluff, Utah — a town that has been a crossroads for travelers for centuries. The Navajo call this place *Tse Bii' Ndzisgai*, meaning "where the stone is striped," and the name fits the towering canyon walls that frame our riverbank.

We built this campground for people who want more from their time outdoors. Not a theme park, not a resort — just a well-kept, easy-access place to park your rig, hang your tent, and step into some of the most dramatic landscape in the American Southwest.
