Nothing special
We stayed here for a night as we were going to Petrified Forest the next day. The lady checking us in at the visitor center was far from enthusiastic, and it did not get much better after that.
The toilets (men’s) did not work (one did not flush and one was out of order), the restrooms were quite bug-infested, the place is fairly simple, you are quite close to your neighbors and there is little shadow. During the night it can be quite loud because of the trains and main road close by
Historical treasure
The campsite was convenient to the interstate, yet very quiet. Sites are paved with 20 & 30 amp service, water, and dump station. Clean bathrooms and showers. Take a walk or ride your bikes through the area to discover the ancient Hopi community remains. Rangers are knowledgeable and helpful. Close to Winslow

State park
Electric and water hookup. Large sites. Close for the I40. Definitely a good option to explore the area or for an overnight stay on the I40.

Quick stay but enjoyable
Rangers we’re very accommodating and helped get us into a spot normally reserved for hosts. Clean and accommodating.
Just ok
Park seems to have a days worth of things to explore and hike. Will check that out tomorrow. Views are beautiful. Sites are level and well spaced, but there is little privacy due to the terrain. Giving 3 stars for facilities. Only 1 bath/shower house for 50+ sites. That bathhouse consists of just 2 unisex shower stalls plus the bathrooms which have 3 stalls and 2 sinks each (mens and women’s). Sorely inadequate for the number of campsites. On a side note, don’t pay attention to the indication of ADA vs regular sites. They are all basically the same with no differentiation. My some is in a wheelchair and he could manage in any site. One of the shower stalls does have a shower seat.

Ginger Empty Nesters
Campground was nice and neat and easy access off hwy. Well maintained older shower facility but works.
Beautiful and convenient
We will be back to this campground when we we can stay more than one night. There’s a lot to do in the park and the campground itself is very nice. One small, but nice detail are the tiedowns around the tent sites.
Quiet and spacious spots
We spent 3 nights in site 5, a pull through. Water was still off due to freezing for another week, but water available in the campground at the dump station. It was windy during our stay, but we enjoyed riding our e-bikes throughout the park. We saw 4 groups of wild burro and horses. The nights were dark and quiet. Sites are large and the roads are easily accessible. There are bathrooms and showers. Wood fires are allowed.

Gem Off I-40
Very nice state campground off of I-40 near downtown Winslow and the Petrified Forest NP. Nice space between sites, most have electric and water. There is a dump station. Nice museum/visitor center with archaeological sites to visit and explore within the park. Great sunsets. The restrooms and showers are clean. Beautiful park and very well maintained.

Beautiful, quiet, good facilities
First time RV-ers. Reserving spot on the same day was just a simple phone call. Space numbers easy to read even at night We had a back- in, but it was no problem. Hot showers. Beautiful scenery.
Great location close to I-40
Sites are large and level with some pull-throughs available. Beautiful sunsets! Toilet and showers are clean but in mood repairs
No Reservation—Came anyway
I was coming into arizona later in the evening (8:30pm) with no plans of where to stay. Tried to call the campground reservation # and register online but I was too late. I just needed a safe place to crash for the night, so i decided to check it out anyway (w the Winslow visitor Center as my backup plan). There were a few camping spots open so I snagged one and stayed for the night. The ranger gave me a ticket in the morning indicting I needed to go to the visitors center and pay, which I promptly did. There’s a possible fine (up to $750) if not paid. I paid $18 but there’s showers and bathrooms. Really nice facilities that Id happily pay for. So quiet and the stars were unbelievable! I was really wowed.
State park in AZ
Great service : attendant helped me get backed into site Water and electric (30 amp) No sewer at site but is dump station
Great Campground!
We loved Homolovi! Full hookups, clean bathrooms, gorgeous sunset and very helpful and kind rangers! For coming in mid July the evenings and morning were beautiful. Take the time to visit both sets of ruins in the morning to avoid heat (we loved Homolovi 1) and learn about the Hopi people. Winslow (closest town) is a short drive away and well worth it. Great food, Standing on the Corner site and even a great local brewery.
Great spot!
Great little spot to pull off for the night has showers and tent spots as well as water and electric. Great Wi-Fi service too.
Great campground in a desolate place
This is a nice, modern campground in a state park that features stone ruins. I visited the Homolovi 1 and 2 sites. They were mostly rubble, but there were some intact walls and a large storage pit.
The campground is large, and sites are nicely distanced from one another. However, there is very little shade or privacy. When I visited in June, there were also high winds. These died down after dark, but made setting up the tent a fun challenge. Each tent site had a paved driveway. This was nice, but made tent stakes placement a little awkward. I had to tie one line to the picnic table.
Bathrooms were clean and modern, with hot and cold water.

State Park campground in NE Arizona
This is a nice campground. The only concern was there was only one shower available, building is in need of an upgrade. The grounds have ruins from the Hopi tribe. Stars are beautiful at night. We also saw lots of burros and horses.
The Petrified Forest and Painted Desert are not far down the road from this park. It is well worth the stop. Beautiful!
Also, be sure to "stand on the corner in Winslow, Arizona." Cute town and tourist spot.
Spacious sites, Archaelogical interest
Spacious campground. Don’t miss the Homolovi archeology sites. Hot showers. The fire ring was awkwardly close to the road.

Very nice campsites!
We really liked this park. We only stayed one night because we were just passing through and have stood on the corner in Winslow and toured the petrified forest NP, but would have actaully stayed a few days despite it because it was so nice and quiet. There was no shade, but weather has been plenty cool, so fine for this time of year. Not much left of the ruins, sadly, but there is a lot of great information, a nice visitor center, and a few roads that were great for bikeriding.

Interesting State Park
Homolovi SP was easy to find off I-40, just follow the signs. We went straight to the campground (CG) as the entry shack was not occupied. We should have gone to the Visitors Center and register first, which we did immediately after setting up, but we had reservations and our site number. The visitors center parking lot is fairly small, but we could have parked there with our 39’ 5th Wheel. We easily parked in pull through site 28 with 50 AMP & water. The pull throughs on the right side of the road in the 20 and 30 area all have the 50 & 30 AMP electric and water on the passenger/RV door side. The site was plenty long and we had no problem positioning and running our electric and water under the rig. Sites throughout the CG are nicely spaced apart. The Arizona State Park website provides excellent details on sites and camping here. We saw quite a few overnighters each day during our 3 nights stay over a weekend in June, and the park was never full. Suggest you bring ant spray as the little buggers headed up the stairs soon after arrival. Early one morning we walked the mile down to the Homolovi 1 ruins and were pleasantly surprised by a small herd of donkeys that posed for pictures but didn’t get too close. We also drove over to the Homolovi II ruins. Lots of history in this SP. We drove the short distance to Winslow where we were “Standing on a Corner” and did a supply run to Walmart and Safeway. We enjoyed our three nights stay in our spacious site with desert views.

Thank the Hopi tribe
This state park is beautiful and has lots to offer...hiking/biking trails...ruins to visit...as well as wildlife viewing...camp sites are easy back-in or pull thru...bath house is clean as well as showers...would love to spend more time but this is a one nite stop for now...
Handy and quiet
This park is just a short drive off I-40, but far enough the traffic and train noise are distant. All roadways and spaces are paved. The hook-ups are easy to access and spaces all appear relatively level. Although they have planted trees, it’s a lot of wide open space and sand. All spaces appear to have tables and fire rings. There’s a dump station as you leave the camping area. We travel out of the Phoenix Valley every year and this will be one of our regular stops!
Great Small Park
Wonderful little state park. We had site #36. Good afternoon shade and morning sun. Pretty level. Very surprised at how quiet it is because it is pretty close to I40. Only 5 miles outside of Winslow.
Dump station and water fill at the entrance. Most sites have electric and water. No sewer at the sites. Water at sites is turned off in the winter.
Good showers and restroom. Dumpster at exit. Only thing would be better if they had signs showing which direction to go for which campsites. We had to drive around to find our site.
Good cell service for both Verizon and AT&T. Would definitely stay here again.
Loved the ancient ruins.
Perfect place!
Easy to get in and settled, very well maintained and clean. So beautiful with blooming trees! Sunset was wow!! tonight!! Had dinner as the sun went down...gorgeous colors in the sky!
