The cabin was perfect, clean, good location. The cabin was a nice change from our camping locations. We did a 10 day 5 National parks. This was my favorite stay. They are quick to message you back, excellent customer service.

Devils Canyon Campground
Nice quiet campground. Close to all the national monuments and parks(1hr). Well kept bathroom area.

This is a short drive from Monticello, but the elevation gain means that it's cooler. It is right off of a road that gets some use, so you do hear the occasional car pass, but it is otherwise very quiet. We really enjoyed being in a forest after all of the lovely desert scenery. We were the only tent campers, and there were two RVs. I think there were 15 sites. We didn't have the chance to explore the area, but we'd love to come back.

A lot to do. It has a beach, a natural water slide, and a big rock to jump off of. You can also tune down the river below the dam. Electric and non electric. Bathrooms and showers. Some sites have atv access to the trails.

Devil's Canyon Campground was truly an oasis for my family and I. We stayed one night (which we did not plan ahead of time) and were pleased to find potable water, clean facilities, and a fire pit!
Perhaps the saving grace of our trip was the Most Welcoming Campground Manager (can't recall his name)--Upon arrival he gave us a rundown of all the open sites that were best suited for us as tenters, with pros and cons to all. He later came by to see how we had settled in and helped us plan the remainder of our trip (he was SO informative). He even gave us a couple maps!
The toilets were very clean and had many air fresheners which I appreciated.
Campground was Super Quiet (especially at night)!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Spent 8 nights in Nizhoni during June 2017. Gets a big A++. Allowed me to explore Cedar Mesa...only 50 miles away. At night it was in the 40s....made for great sleep as opposed to camping on the Mesa which was lows in the 60s...John and Leeanne the hosts are wonderful. Only 3-4 sites taken daily while I was there. Made for a quiet and peaceful stay. Campground is covered with pines making for good shade. A diamond in the rough....
