Canyon de Chelly
Does anyone have a suggestion for a campground near Canyon de Chelly? We have a 34-foot fifth wheel. Thanks for any help. Hoping to visit tomorrow.

This sits right smack in the middle of the Navajo Nation, hence the lack of RV parks (or boondocking), or almost anything else for that matter. If you carry alcoholic beverages with you, please respect the local laws, and keep them in your camper, as it is illegal on Navajo lands.

The Navajo Parks and Recreation Department (NPRD) manages the Cottonwood Campground and collects fees for camping.
There are about 90 individual campsites available and 2 group tent sites. Each site includes a parking space, picnic table and grill. There are 3 restroom facilities that include sinks and flushable toilets, but no showers. No hookups are available, but a dumpstation is located in Loop 1. Limited services are available during winter months.
GROUP SITES: Reservations for group campsites are required. Sites are for tent camping only. No reservations are accepted for RVs.
RVs: Sites cannot accommodate vehicles more than 40 feet, including vehicles-in-tow. Full hookups are available in the surrounding areas of Gallup, NM; Monument Valley, UT; and Holbrook, AZ.
