Description

Our story begins with a little old lady, our grandma, who believed with all her heart that we were worth it. She passed a few years ago, and what better way to honor her belief in us than to create Ethel's Hideout. We came from a ranching family, which has brought us closer than we ever imagined. Hard work and dedication were imprinted on us from a young age. On this land we have built an RV pull-through and horse stalls. Ethel's is your home away from home. Our unique RV park is comfortably tucked away to provide a quiet stay away from the crowds. We have only 5 RV spaces and 5 tent sites. RV spaces have water and electric hook ups, tent sites are dry camps, with water access at the community barn. You will never feel crowded. We border agriculture land, sate and public lands which provides an authentic western experience. Though tucked away to give the illusion of seclusion, we are located only 5 miles from downtown Kanab Utah. Kanab features many fun and exciting events throughout the year. Located right in the heart of several national parks, Zions, Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell and many more fun things to tour. Our most unique feature is horse stalls on site. Bring your horses with you and reserve stalls for them as well. Our convenient location offers direct access to ride on public lands. Traveling with horses? We have just the spot with(8) 12′ x 14′ covered stall. Contact us to book stalls for your horses to stay over night with you.

Nice and mostly a hideaway

We had the place mostly to ourselves and with the small hill between you and the road/industry it is fairly secluded. Had great Verizon signal and poor TMobile.

Pure peace & quite with magical views

It feels almost like a hidden secret that I shouldn't divulge, but the lovely owners of this special little spot deserve to have a light shown on their little slice of heaven in Southern Utah. 

In an area rich with outdoor tourist attractions (Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon all within 90 minutes), it's hard to find a campsite that doesn't feel like a shoulder-to-shoulder Disney experience. Ethel's Hideout is laid out such that you never feel like you're crowded in by neighbors. This is a true cowboy camping experience in cowboy country. 

The campground is surrounded by public lands in every direction with views of incredible rock formations and the breath-taking Southern Utah landscape. If you're lucky, you can watch the cowboys moving cattle across the range. We got lucky enough to see this during our stay. 

There's no shortage of things to do nearby. Just ask the owners for some tips on where to go to find an adventure! As an insider tip, I found the nearby reservoir in Kanab to be the perfect spot for a morning jaunt.  

While they do offer horse stalls for travelers with horses, the campground is set-up for RVs and tents to maximize views and strikes the perfect balance of amenities with a boondocking-style experience. If you're looking for concrete pads and lines of RVs, this isn't the spot for you. But if you're hoping to find a truly special camping experience coupled with some light amenities, give Ethel's a visit. We love it here.

Charming little camping with a nice view

The camping is over the hill from the road, so it's fairly quiet. The campsites were neat and gave a nice view of the valley with some small buttes and some grazing cows, really making you feel like a cowboy. The site is unmanned, but we did speak to the owner, who was very pleasant. We did think $40 was a bit steep for an RV site with just water and electricity and very sparse amenities beyond that, but not too bad. You can do some hiking from the campground (including climbing one of the buttes) and you can drive into the valley if your car is capable, but we did not try any of that
