Are there cooking facilities at FireTree?

FireTree has a picnic area with charcoal grills a few hundred feet from your room, but no other cooking facilities. BRING YOUR OWN charcoal and lighter fluid. Grills may be shared. There are no other cooking facilities at FireTree, so we urge you to have dinner before you arrive. Meals are available at Goulding's restaurant, at The View Hotel in Monument Valley Park, in Kayenta Arizona (30mi, 48km), and in Mexican Hat Utah (30mi, 48km). The Swinging Steak in Mexican Hat has excellent steaks, but does not have much other food. You can find food for a picnic at Goulding's grocery (a small grocery store but much larger than what you find at a gas station), or at Basha's in Kayenta to the South and in Blanding to the North (85mi, 136km).

What kind of vehicle should I take to FireTree?

You can come in an ordinary car. Even if you come after dark you will have no trouble finding us if you print a map. Do not take an alternate route. The road may be sandy. Don't slow down or stop. Keep going at a normal speed. As long as you keep going, small cars are OK.

FireTree has the only available room in the area! Should I reserve a room?

You should only come to FireTree if you want the unique experience FireTree offers. If you just need a room, and Goulding's Lodge and The View Hotel have no space, there are motels in Kayenta Arizona, Mexican Hat Utah, Bluff Utah and Blanding Utah. We don't know of any other possibilities.

What if I have allergies?

The desert has many plants which produce pollen. Usually, your allergies will not be better in the desert than they are in other climates. We also have more dust than in wet climates. FireTree keeps cats which are not allowed inside.

I have a spayed/neutered hairless hypoallergenic toilet-trained declawed pet with no voice and it will never leave the car. Can I bring it to FireTree?

We're sorry, but no.
