Wingate Yurts
New in 2018, the Wingate Yurts expand our more glamorous nighttime accommodations to a location closer to all the action. Maintaining our standard of amazing views, these sites allow more convenient access to our Dead Horse Point Rim Hiking Trails, the Visitor Center and loved ones staying in the campgrounds.
Each yurt contains sleeping space for up to six people, in the form of a queen on the bottom and a full bunk bed on top, plus a pullout futon couch. An outdoor propane grill allows for cooking on-site and the park provides the propane. Heating, air conditioning, and electrical outlets are available, and tables are available both inside and outside of the yurt. Modern restroom facilities are located within easy walking distance. Bedding is not provided.
Nightly Rate: Due to change depending on the time of year.
Check-in: 3:00 pm Check-out: 12:00 pm
Limits: There is a maximum of 6 persons per yurt
Door Code: The code for your yurt will be listed on your email confirmation. If you do not get an email with the code please contact the park between the hours of 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM.

- Fires are permitted in the established fire pits of the park; however, wood can not be gathered from the environment. Bundles of wood are sold at the Visitor Center and Entrance Station or in Moab. Bring your own camp chairs to enjoy your fire.

Take your trash to the dumpsters by the dump station as you leave.
- Heating and cooling units exist in each yurt. Please turn them off upon departure.
- Trash collection is costly at the park. Please consolidate and compact trash before putting it in our dumpsters or take it with you to a town.
- Pets are not allowed within the yurts. Pets must also be attended to at all times while in the park so they can not be left in cars or leashed outside the yurts. If you know someone staying in a Wingate or Kayenta campsite with a pet, remember that the pet can not visit the yurt. If you would like to spend the night in the park with your furry friend, consider the Wingate or Kayenta Campgrounds.

Moenkopi Yurts

Please be advised that Utah State Parks has hired a contractor to pave the dirt road into the Moenkopi Yurt area and the adjacent overflow mountain bike parking area at Dead Horse Point State Park in June 2020. As a result of this project, the Moenkopi Yurts (#1-5) will NOT be available on the reservation system from June 21st through June 26th. The rest of the park will remain open to the public during this construction project.
In preparation for the June 21st through June 26th paving closure the contractor will be operating heavy equipment and placing additional gravel on the road and the parking lot next to the Moenkopi yurts on multiple occasions to prepare the surface for pavement. This dirt work will be completed during daylight hours and the contractor will do everything in their power to minimize the impacts of construction on park visitors staying in the Moenkopi Yurts. We encourage guests to make reservations for the Wingate Yurts (#6-9) if you do not want to have your vacation conflict with construction work during the month of June. The contractor intends to do the dirt work during the week to avoid any construction work on Saturdays and Sundays.
Thank you for choosing Dead Horse Point State Park for your next adventure.
