Where to begin? Goudling's motel is old and worn out. It needs a radical overhaul, The carpeting,in the rooms is shot,bathrooms tiny and outdated.Of course the Navajo now have a monopoly so good luck…Full review by Quest24461768185

If you're a fan of Westerns this is a must-see :) I CANNOT stress enough how important it is to follow recommendations that you have a high clearance, 4-wheel drive vehicle on the self-driving tour…Full review by veroniquegerald

Q:
My husband's dream is to see Monument Valley (John Wayne world). We will be coming from Durango, CO on October 6 and would like some information about the tours and where to stay. Are there trails for UTVs? Mish

UTV’s are not permitted inside the park. If you do the drive in your own vehicle, you can. Otherwise there is a paid tour with designated times. I recommend checking out their website as there may be changes. As for lodging, we stayed at Goulding’s lodge which is not too far away. It is outside the park. I got a cabin overlooking the buttes. There is a hotel inside the park and it seems nice. Just be prepared to pay since it’s expensive.

at the entrance is a visitor center and shop. we went last fall, driving from Moab, so it was probably late morning, early afternoon. no sign of limited entrance so maybe it's the time of year or time of day. I would assume you wait in the parking lot? keep in mind, we were constantly checking the time and were and hour off because of Arizona no day lite saving time. the entire trip thru the parks was one big "what time is it"? kind of trip.

Not sure what town you are referring to. Monument Valley seemed very isolated to me, there is a visitor center and rest rooms thru out but I can't say to facilities. Most likely you would need to find something in one of the town's along the way, Mexican Hat. Plus I did notice camp grounds too.
