Homolovi State Park

I had read about this park so we decided to go visit. It is a small park in that there are 2 locations you can go to. They are ruins, so don't plan on seeing buildings. You will see the size of where the Hopi were living, and in site 1, you will see a lot of artifacts. The artifacts were fantastic to see on the ground, on rocks, on the wall. I'm impressed that people are actually respecting the land and leaving the artifacts alone. Thank you, everyone! There is also a campground here, and we drove through to check it out for a future stop. It is really nice. We did go hike and see some petroglyph. This was a great stop.

Nice big campsite. Easy to manipulate our camper through park. Rangers were very helpful and friendly. Not far off interstate but far enough to not hear traffic. All the other campers were considerate of the rules and the whole stay for us was a pleasant one.

Nice place with great history. 3 easy short hikes to 2 Pueblos and one old native quarry

Lots of pottery shards and some worked stone.

The borros were a nice treat but watch your step!

Beautiful park in the high desert grasslands and home of the homolovi ruins. The ancestral home of the hopi. Remnants of an old pueblo village, with layers of living spaces visible, and signs of vandalism from pot hunters. There are many pottery shards along the ground, but please leave them there. Occasionally, burros wander in from the reservation. Camp sites have picnic tables and fire rings. Indoor toilets and showers but no heat in the building. Nice park overall, and close to other attractions.

Overall, this a very clean, easy to navigate, and enjoyable park. Pull through sites big enough to easily accommodate our 65ft rig. Do be warned that large sites tend to have the hookups on the wrong side and pushed back toward the entry of the pad, so bring long hoses to hook up with. All sites are asphalt pads with a fire ring and picnic table. There is well maintained foliage in different areas and campsites. Sites are close, but not on top of each other. We found the restrooms to be very clean. Showers are older and not quite as nice, but not the worst we have seen. Sites are electric only or water and electric, there is sewar at any site, but there is a very clean, easy to use dump station. We arrived on a Sunday and stayed 3 days. We found the park to be VERY quiet and allowed for private exploration whether on foot or bicycle.
The visitor center and Homolovi I Archaeological sites are within 1.5mi of the campground so a nice walk, but also easily drivable. Homolovi II is several miles from the campground and may be better suited for a drive for most people. This is also a short drive to downtown Winslow, AZ, which is a wonderful afternoon outing.
At about $30/night this is an excellent value, if you want to see wildlife, hike and/or bike, and just relax. Do know that it does not have a playground or other children dedicated amenities.

Homolovi State Park was an amazing camping experience...one that we stumbled upon, unaware of its rich history.
Our site, 39, was a back in full hookup spacious, level site with a picnic table, a fire ring, and a stationary grill. Most sites are electric/water only; a few sites are water only. A bathroom/shower facility with doggie waste bags was not far from our site. Dump station and trash bins at the entrance to the campground.
Upon entering, we drove to the visitors center, past the unmanned-at-the-time booth, to check in. The visitors center office also has a store, a wonderful view of the park, and historical information about the Hopi people and their homeland, now protected as Homolovi State Park. Visit the archaeological sites, Homolovi one and Homolovi two. Bike around the park or hike the Nasungvö and/or Tsu'vö trails. Visit the observatory to enjoy the night stars. Watch magnificent sunsets. Pet welcome with rules. Be respectful of the Hopi homeland.

Camping here was spiritual. Being with 700 year old ruins and learning more about the Hopi culture 700 years ago was humbling!

One archeological site is within walking distance from the campground. The whole park is very pretty. Star parties during some parts of the year. A Mormon settler cemetery. Hopi history throughout the park

We actually stayed at the Campground. Huge asphalt sites with picnic table, fire ring, water & electric. A dump site is available. No noise from the freeway. Highly recommend.

This place is very special and a wonderful place to visit to appreciate the area's fascinating indigenous past. But folks, please stop picking up artifacts and piling them on rocks! Leave them where you found them! Also, if there's a sidewalk, please stay on it! Don't walk on ruined stone walls. Be respectful.

A nice state park where native American settlement ruins have been preserved. This is in a desert area with natural landscaping - low growing bushes and ground covers. Some were blooming when we were there. The campground , between two settlements, has full hook ups (or no electricity sites) and a dump station. Sites are paved and relatively flat, mostly back ins, but there are a number of pull-throughs that simply run parallel to the loop road, so not very deep. Big rigs fit just fine. The two loops are quite broad, so you aren't cramped by fellow campers. There is also a restroom/bath house that could use a little sprucing up, but is quite adequate. There is a Ranger/camp host on site. The Visitor Center is tucked a bit into the park. Information about the area and its former inhabitants is available, along with souvenirs. You can see Rt 40 from the campground, but it is far enough away that you can't hear the traffic. We had a very restful stay.

Take the walk! View the ruins. Look at all of the broken pottery. (Look only, no touchee/takee!)
Clean and quiet park. We will return.

We diverted here after the interstate was closed down due to weather. The camp host was very accommodating and took care of all our needs. The campground was well organized, open, and peaceful. No nosey neighbors and we were left to ourselves. We had the chance to walk to the closest ruins site twice and drove to the furthest one. Both were educational and well serviced. The park ranger was kind, educational, and attentive. All in all, great two-day stay.

Nice state park. Too bad this site had been vandalized in the past. Treasure seekers destroyed parts of the site.

Not close to any civilization, beautiful desert all around. Wonderful paved sites wit picnic table and a square sandy area at each site I'm presuming is for tents or dining tarps. Sites are a nice distance apart. Didn't use showers or any other facilities. Very clean. Will keep on our list of campgrounds to go to. Awesome view of sky at night.

We stayed 2 nights in this quiet, lovely campground. It was very tidy, sites were spread out and level. We had a full hook-up, back-in site. The night sky was beautiful with little ambiant light around. We were disappointed that we just missed their Sky Party! We will have to plan better next time. The ruins were interesting. Rangers were helpful. We did go into Winslow and play tourist for a couple hours. Also took a long daytrip to Canyon de Chelly - which wasn't on our original agenda - but we are very glad we went. If you go, you must do a guided canyon bottom tour to get closer to the cliff dwellings.

This place is like a hidden gem. I honestly only set up camp here because it was located between two places that I wanted to visit; Meteor Crater and Petrified Forest National Park. The park ranger that I met at the visitors center was very helpful, and when I told him I was going to Petrified Forest, he provided me with some excellent information sheets that they had. The experience at the visitors center was just great. The camp site itself was clean, as was the whole park really, with clean bathrooms and showers. Unlike many of the other campgrounds I've been to, the grill on site was actually very well maintained. I think the only thing that could have made the stay more comfortable, given I camp in a tent, not a motor home, would have been something for shade. Overall, a great experience, and I will stay there again if I am in the area. Something to keep in mind, this is also an archeology site.

This is my second year visiting Homolovi and I still love it. They are upgrading the bathroom and showers next year and that will make this campground perfect. Pets are welcome on leashes, trails for walking, a old graveyard and a trail that goes right to the visitor center. This will be a regular stop for me!

This is a fun little park to visit. We were able to explore the archaeological sites and check out the wild burros who call the park home. The observatory was under repair at the time we visited but it was scheduled to be operational by June 29th.

The campground was really clean and well maintained. There are showers and toilets at the campground - there were a few missing tiles in the shower I used but still was clean and had running hot water.

We encountered really high winds so if you are planning on staying in a tent make sure it's wind rated or bring extra tie downs.

While on a road trip in this area in our camper-van heading from Fort Collins CO to the southwest in April 2022 we stayed in this state park campground for 1 night. We were in site #40 near the restroom/bathhouse. The bathhouse (with hot water and flush toilets) is well-maintained. The site driveway as paved and flat.

We reserved the site a few weeks ahead of time and I am glad we did as the campground was full.

Highly recommended.
