Operating Hours

Devils Garden Campground typically open year-round. Firewood is only available for purchase at the visitor center bookstore, not at the campground.

Weather

Southeast Utah is part of the Colorado Plateau, a "high desert" region that experiences wide temperature fluctuations. In spring and fall, daytime highs average 60° to 80°F (15° to 26°C) and lows average 30° to 50°F (-1° to 10°C). Summer temperatures often exceed 100°F (37°C), making strenuous exercise difficult. Late summer monsoon season brings violent storm cells which often cause flash floods. Winters are cold, with highs averaging 30° to 50°F (-1° to 10°C), and lows averaging 0° to 20°F (-17° to -6°C)

Rules & Regulations

Fire/Stove Policy

Fires must be contained in the fire rings provided. March through October, purchase firewood coupons at Arches' bookstore to exchange for wood bundles at the campground. (In winter, firewood is sold directly at the bookstore.) Firewood collecting is not allowed because woody vegetation grows so slowly in the desert.

Generator use limited to: 8-10 am and 4-8 pm. Campground quiet hours: 10 pm to 8 am. Check out time: 10 am. Keep all vehicles, including bicycles, on paved or graveled areas of the campsite. Parked vehicles may not extend into the roadway. Fires are allowed only in the fire pits and grills. You can buy firewood coupons at the visitor center or online; ask host for details. Burning collected wood is prohibited. Each site has a 10-person limit and may be used by only one group. Asking campers to share their site is prohibited. Campsites may not be left unattended for more than 24 hours. No person may occupy the campground for more than 7 nights in any 30-day period or 14 nights per year.
