Best Tent Camping near Littlefield, AZ

Not sure why we would go to tent camp at Lake Mead in the middle of summer but we did, and we were not the only ones. It was 110 degrees during the day and 85 degrees at night. Quite miserable honestly. Tent sites were spacious and bathrooms were fairly clean. Ideal time to camp here would most likely be early Spring or late Fall.

We stayed here for 4 nights in October 2020 while tent camping.  We selected this location because we were working from the road while also exploring National Parks and this met our criteria.

Pros:

-Less than a 30 minute drive to Zion National Park from here

-Great WiFi from the campground and cell service (T-Mobile)- totally possible to work remotely from here

-Nice amenities including a "social hall"- basically a large living room with some couches and tables.  We worked from here and felt safe even during COVID because there was literally never anyone else in here.  

-Pool if you're interested in that.  We didn't use it, but it wasn't that crowded.

-Store is very well stocked.  Basically a small grocery story and gifty type items.  Prices are not that ridiculous.

-Picnic pavilion/camp kitchen with dishwashing sinks and covered picnic tables

-Bathrooms were updated and had hot showers (though showers have a 7 minute limit)

-Staff was friendly and helpful

-Bathhouse also has laundry (coin operated)

Cons:

-The 4 tent sites are right next to each other basically in a gravel parking lot.  This place is really an nice RV park that then seemed to add in the tent area.  If you don't want to be right next to your neighbors, you will not like this.  That being said, we felt like we were able to be far enough away during COVID.

-There is no shade at the tent sites.  The RV sites each seemed to have a tree, but none in the tent area.  It would be pretty miserable to site out here during the day.  We used the picnic pavilion and the social hall, so were ok.

-Less COVID precautions than I've seen at other campground- e.g. the only sanitizer was outside the store/office- none in the bathhouse, laundry areas, social hall, etc.- high touch places.  They did have bottles of cleaning spray out, but no place had paper towels, so that felt pointless honestly.

Overall, if you're looking for amenities, including WiFi, are RV camping, want a good location to Zion, this is a great place and I recommend it.  If you're looking for a really great tent site, you won't find it here.

We spent 3 nights at this campsite and it is kept very clean, the amenities are well maintained. There is a beautiful view and very little light polution for star gazing. However if you plan on camping in a tent - the sites are very close to eachother with no visual privacy, the ground is very rocky and the tent pads provided are small (I could not fit my bell tent). The gorge act like a wind tunnel so it is extra windy. 

I would highly recommend this spot for RVs and Travel Trailers but for tents it's not super comfortable.

Stayed here in March when the weather was perfect. They have rv sites and tent camping. I typically pull my rig, but decided on tent camping for this adventure. Midweek there was plenty of sites to choose from. I was able to find a site that was situated between two large boulder areas, so I was completely secluded and had full privacy. The sites are already spaced out, but the extra barrier made me feel like I had the place to myself. The petroglyphs are a short drive or a good walking distance from the campsites. The facilities were clean and water spots throughout sites. Highly recommend camping at this place anytime but summer months, as it can get hot!

We were tent camping in #21 which is a walk-in site and my fav of the three walk sites of this area. Only about a 45 second walk but there are only three campsite on this side of the rocks and it’s quiet. Once spigot for water. Trash cans. 2 mins walk to the bathroom. Tent pad, fire pit, grill, picnic table. It was perfect.

Awesome campground tucked in the river valley directly outside of Veyo and 30 minutes outside of St. George!  Awesome campground for families with many amenities and activities such as pool, climbing, concessions, showers and more.  Drove my Honda Civic in and tent camped for a night while exploring Utah.  Campground manager/host was friendly and accommodating.

Last stop on our Utah adventures and it was perfect. Had to pay to get in and pay for camping that wasn’t fun but it worked out they did have Full hook ups Available here!!! So thankful to dump from our other adventures We also tent camped next to our rig and it was good for everyone. The water was warm and enjoyable.

3.5 really. The park is beautiful and the location of the campground was as well. However, sites 1-14 are basically parking spots. You are really close to your neighbors and have very little privacy. But there are some tent sites with power that are more spread out. We will get one of them next time.

We did the tent sites. Excellent sites, though sites closer to the center of the canyon have zero shade. But well built, with a picnic table and grill, and leveled. Pretty little state park but...one bathroom was broken and the code they gave us for the women's showers didn't work. Very confused young man as my wife exited the man's shower.

May need a high clearance vehicle to go down some of the roads but we made it in our Chevy Trax. We were very secluded and could not see any other campers from our campsite. The ground is hard so tent camping is a little bit of a struggle but we just used rocks to hold it down. Only 20-30 min from Zion. The views are something you will never see at a regular campground!

Visited today and this campsite is open. The other site Arch Rock is still closed. This area has tent and rv spots, as well as walk in tent sites along the back against the boulders. Very clean campsite and facilities. Many rv sites appeared to be almost perfectly level. Plenty of space between sites and lots of room to easily park a trailer and park your vehicle. Had many pull thrus for those large rigs. Water and electric hookups. Dump site is located at the entrance.

My second visit to Snow Canyon was just as rewarding as the first one. Gorgeous red rock scenery and impeccable maintenance for this lovely box canyon named after a pair of brothers with a last name of Snow. 

During the second visit in May the weather was perfect for sleeping without the tent fly--- stars overhead.

Showers and bathrooms are first class.

Great tent section but strange RV section though--- looks like urban parking lot. 

Excellent staff.

Tent sites are lovely except for site # 28 which is in a "hole". 

Campground is 25 minutes from St. George.

If you stay here stay in an RV . The tent sites are exposed to the elements and you have to pitch your tent on sharp rocks. When we stayed in our RV it was a great experience. The way the campground is set up the rock formations block your views from your neighbors so you feel very secluded. The hikes we so much fun here. We hiked up to fire wave, the elephant, and hiked the prospect trail. Late fall is the perfect time to go so you don't melt.

The campground is small and clean with 1 restroom (no showers) and located next to the reservoir. The site was beautiful and scenic from all sides. We tent camped for 2 nights. Each site offers a shaded pinic table, fire pit, and tent pad. Most other sites are within eyesight but for a campground we felt that we had enough distance (plus the shade cover) to give us some privacy. There are no trees or hardscape to keep all sites out of view but there are lots of karge creosote bushes. There are trails and easy access to the reservoir and watercraft rentals (i.e. jet skis, paddleboards, kayaks). The staff was friendly too. We enjoyed our stay and loved how dog friendly everything was.

We reserved several nights here, based on the expectation of cell reception and electric. I'm working remotely, so these are must haves. When we got there, we found that there was zero service on either of our carriers, and no WiFi available.

Only the RV sites have power, and the RV sites were pathetically small. They were basically parking spots with tiny shared picnic tables between them. It looked more like a Walmart parking lot than a campsite. Very disappointing.

If you're able to go without power and internet, the tent sites were fairly nice. But if you need either, look elsewhere.

If you like camping this is a must go to spot. Landscape is unlike any other, millions of years of erosion to create a breathtaking environment. They have both tent sites and RV sites. It does cost but there’s a self kiosk you can pay at. You can’t go wrong with any spot to camp at but the one’s towards the back were better in my opinion. They do have three spots in the back that are tents only that are pretty sweet spots. But overall it was a experience I will never forget and I will definitely be returning multiple times, especially since it’s only an hour away from Las Vegas. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This campground was perfect for us. We stayed for a week while I worked remotely. Although there was very little cell reception, there was good WiFi at a reasonable price. The internet, power, water, and showers (even in December) were all steady. And while I worked, my husband hiked the park. Lots of beautiful trails to explore and rocks to climb (at all levels of difficulty)!

The only criticism I have is that I wish that some of the tent sites offered electric, too. We were just van camping and really didn't need a whole RV spot, but those were the only ones with power.

All in all, a great site!

After primitive camping for 3 days up above on Smith Mesa, we opted for this full service jewel to reinvigorate ourselves. This park has a pool, hottub, very clean showers and restrooms, a laundromat, a store and a onsite restaurant. First impression is how much work they put into the site, groundskeeping is constant and it shows. It is immaculately clean and although on the pricier side of campgrounds it is luxury, and a welcome change from "roughing" it. The tent sites closer to the road can be noisy from the traffic, but that is about it for cons. Treat yourself to a hot shower, a hottub and a hot meal.

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.

Beautiful location! All camp sites overlook the lake. There are flush toilets and outdoor coin showers. If the camp ground fills, they allow primitive camping in the parking lot for a minimal fee. They have tent camping on the beach. All spots are pretty flat and very easy to access, this was a well planned out camp ground.

Pets are welcome in a leash.

The dock for non-motorized water craft is easy to access from the parking lot next to the camp ground. If you do not have gear with you, there is a rental shop in site

There is a motorized vehicle dock, but it isn’t near the campground, I didn’t see it coming in or going out. But, I did see a couple of motorized boats on the water.

The stars were pretty and I didn’t hear it see a single bug while walking outside at night.

This is a hidden gem just outside of Hurricane, Utah. I was there during Spring Break, the weather was mild, but very few people were on the lake or dock. I will be coming back soon.

Roughly 10 mi out of Toquerville on Spring drive is The Falls. A really sweet place to stop, cool off, I saw some people swimming during the day, and just relax and take in the gorgeous canyon. Dotted with pinion pines this is a stark desert landscape that is freeing just to drive through, let alone set up and camp and drink in its essence. Road in varies in difficulty, if it is even hinting of rain I personally would find another place to go. Not just for the unpredictable road conditions, but flash flooding is a real danger. Watch the weather reports and take then into consideration when setting up camp. Ok, the fun stuff. Trailers would not be advised unless specifically made to handle the road in, so tent camping is the most prevalent, I have a rooftop tent, so it is perfect for this. Days are hot in late spring and summer, nights can get cold especially in the early spring. Be prepared for both. This is no potable water source, nor provisions to be had so go in with all you will need. Dark nights mean amazing stars an I mean amazing, bring some lounging chairs and a good wine and just lay back. Our site had a pre made rock ring and plenty of wood around to burn. It gets really dry, so be extra careful with the fire. Pack in pack out all garbage. Enjoy
