  Hancock Road 64L Dispersed

  Pretty Great in December

  We were lucky to have stellar weather and this spot was great. We do a good amount of SxS Riding every day and absolutely love this spot and area. We are in a 40ft Motorhome with a 24ft trailer and had plenty of room to maneuver around in the site. We will probably hit this one up again next winter. We had zero trouble driving across the sand. No sinking, no loss of traction.

  PS: Sand Arch just up the road and a cool little stop.

  BLM Navajo Rd Dispersed

  Open, high land that’s awkward to get to

  At the far corner of an unassuming neighborhood, there’s a dirt road with a couple signs saying no shooting and no camping. They’re referring to the first three miles of that road. It’s a narrow road with unusually high walls but easy to drive. Make sure you go all 3 miles until you reach the big classic BLM Public Lands sign after which is the start of your options. There’s a few quite large turnoffs with fire pits

  Hurricane Cliffs BLM Dispersed #38

  Easy Access to Site 38

  Hurricane Cliffs Dispersed Camping Site #38 was a pleasant surprise and we ended up staying for a week. We travel in a 40-foot motorhome towing a 24-foot trailer, and this site had no trouble accommodating us. The access road is washboard, but you can handle it fine if you take it easy. We spent a week here and really enjoyed it; the site was spacious and gave us plenty of room to maneuver. A highlight was being able to ride our SxS directly from our campsite, exploring the trails around without any hassle. It's definitely a spot to consider if you're looking for easy access and adventure.

  Kolob Terrace Road

  Convenient for Zion

  We were a little cautious after reading some of the other reviews but we had a great nights sleep here. A large space, others joined us as the night went on and we weren’t bothered by noise and were close to the stream.

  Snow Canyon State Park Campground

  Red Rocks!

  Nicely kept state park, safe, on outskirts of St. George UT. RV spaces are CLOSE together. Tent sites are better, spacious. Showers in tent area have a pull-chain. From their website: 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily Phone: 435-628-2255 Fax: 435-628-9321 Management: Kristen Comella, Park Manager Jesse Henderson, Assistant Manager.  Great red rock/lava flow hiking trail options, most are easy/moderate, nice loop through Snow Canyon and around on mesa and back for road cycling. Great mtn biking in St. George area (including a roller coaster ride on hard packed single track: Bear Claw Poppy and Snake Pit Loop trails. Many other trails in area). Huntsman World Senior Games held 2 to 3 weeks in Oct. in St. George. Traffic in St. George can be heavy at times particularly during typical rush hour times.

  Nice site for Zion access

  Rocky roads to get in, but most vehicles and situations can do it. Loved staying here. Quiet, windy and easy access to Zion

  Zion River Resort

  Best RV Park in Utah

  This place is so nice! Spacious shower stalls with toilet, sink, bench and shower. Laundry facilities. Year round heated pool and hot tub. Store on site with decent prices. All spots have a tree with grass, picnic table and concrete pads. Also has small playground and dog park. Access to Virgin River with a primitive trail.

  Virgin River Gorge (BLM)

  Desert camping at its best.

  Level rv pads. Nice flush bathrooms. And dark sky's. There are plenty of hiking trails in the campground and on the blm area across I-15. We stayed 5 nights and really enjoyed it. Now. Why I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. You have to pay for camping online. If you want a first come site, you have to scan a q code at the entrance. Sounds easy right? Except there is only 1 bar of t-mobile cell service and it's almost impossible to complete the transaction. We booked a reservation before arriving so no issue for us. But many folks could not pay for a first come site. But camped anyway. A better system needed.

  Kaibab Paiute RV Park

  Great location. Friendly folks.

  New campground with clean private showers and restrooms. And at $30 a night a real bargain.
  Pull through sites with full hookups and a friendly staff makes this place a winner.

  Pyramid Ridge Campground

  AMAZING HIDDEN GEM CLOSE TO CEDAR CITY

  Found this place on the DYRT as we were looking for a place to check out when going from Bryce Canyon to Zion. And decided on Cedar city. Almost all RV sites in town were >$60/night, so we opted to dry camp. Pyramid Ridge was exactly what we wanted. And for only $12/night (plus a $8 reservation fee) it was well worth it. Highly recommend.

  Zion Hwy 9 Dispersed Camping

  Great spot!!

  So close to Zion this is a great free camping spot. The access road is a bit bumpy as the pavement is potholed but no trouble in our Class C. Lots of spots to choose from and some great views to be had. Highly recommend

  Single River Site

  River with a dash of fall trees under the stars

  There’s a cluster of spots for both tents and trailers to post up. The river is beautiful but appears they prefer no access to it. The fence line is down so people go anyways. This place fills up on weekend so if you get there early in day you can pick a prime space. Fire pits are all over and used. We grabbed a spot right next to the bridge and water under the falls colored tree. Stars at night are stunning. It’s quiet but you do hear the occasion car passing by from the nearby road, yet the white noise from the river softens it. October gets around 50 at night so come prepared if you’re tenting. About 20 mins outside of Zion main entrance. The mountains surrounding are beautiful.

  Jacob Lake Campground - Kaibab National Forest

  Terrific spot

  We stayed here four nights while visiting Grand Canyon National Park. The site was spacious, well separated from other sites, level, and directly adjacent to a network of easy hiking trails that we took our dog on every day. Water nearby, clean vault toilets, and a very short hop across the highway for gas, food, and essentials. Hosts were very friendly.

  Crazy Horse RV Resort

  Much Needed Head In the Sand R&R

  We were able to reserve a spot online. We arrived after the office was closed-The office left our paperwork on the cork board out in front of the office. Bathrooms are really clean, almost look like they were recently remodeled. Grounds were clean. Sites are pretty close together. Dog wash and park on site were nice for after hiking for the pup! We will stay again-

  Kolob Road BLM Dispersed Camp #2

  Wrong address and creepy people

  First of all, these GPS coordinates take you to a place called Kolob Gate Gardens, which you can also find on the Dyrt. Kolob gate gardens is private property, but on the outside of Kolob Gate Gardens, it is BLM land. The people squatting there who identify themselves as “hosts” want you to think it’s all private property and pay between $31 and $50 a night for their place, which is a complete dump. There there are several dogs on the loose who will come running at you. Mind you, we are staying on the BLM portion of this property. But you can’t tell other than that no one is staying on the private property - the outside edges of the property, where it is BLM, are full of campers and tents. Steve, the person who runs the Kolob gate gardens part, is nice enough but the place is run down. In addition, there is a guy who has been squatting on the BLM property ( by his own admission) who wanted us to leave because he thought we took too much of his space. We are parked prob at least 300-400 yards from him. I thought the coordinates given here would take us to Kolob dispersed site # 2 as advertised on this app but it is not clear. Do not pay no matter what they try to tell you unless you are on one of their numbered ugly sites. Their site says they offer toilets but they are portapotties that haven’t been emptied in years prob- and they tried to make a shower by diverting water from the creek near by. The shower is not functional now. Either way, this place is no good, whether you are on BLM land or not

  Beautiful landscape

  The only con I have is the road in . It resembles the the craters on the moon , we took it slow n easy and found a perfectly flat site . There has to be 20-30 sites available if not more .

  Pretty views on blm land

  Drive out a few miles past red cliffs reserve till you pass the “your public lands sign” and find pull offs with fire rings. Gorgeous views and we saw no other people but lots of trash/broken glass/shotgun shells. Had to keep our dog on a short leash but worked well for a quick dinner and place to crash for a night

  A Lousy Trailer Park

  All this place is is a trailer park. It has no charm. Maybe if you have no understanding of what a campground is. The tent sites are just gravel with surrounded by brick walls. No trees no View. You have to be a simpleton to appreciate this.

  Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park Campground

  Utah State Campground

  If we were traveling with our ATV I would give this 4 stars. Excellent campground with amazing access to unlimited off-road trails. We opted to ride a UTV with ROAM outfitters which I highly recommend. They have an office right on the campground site. The sand dunes are amazing and picturesque. The sledding is so much fun and if done with a tour you can sled more not having to hike back up the sand hill. Not having sewer hookup we used the bathhouse which is what to be expected except it would be appreciated if they cleaned more.

  Sand Hollow State Park Campground

  Sand pit campground not a bad stay

  Geared towards buggies and jeeps but the lady at the desk put us on the outside camp spot which was nice. Clean showers (2) and bathrooms (4). No shade and the lake had a swimmers itch warning which is why it did not get 5 stars. Over all a nice 1 night stay. Close to town for food and close to Zion. Gate closes at 10pm so if your later than that look elsewhere.
