GuideWe snagged a last minute spot here and its a lovely place with great hosts. Primarily a horse camp--for people to camp with their horses to ride in the nearby canyons--we grabbed an electric hookup campsite for $50. Perfect for us to go see The Wave the next morning and leave our trailer vs bringing it down the unpaved road.

We booked a private guided horseback ride with the ranch and stayed here in our trailer for five days. Our stay was incredible: quiet, peaceful, and amidst the backdrop of beautiful Utah BLM land. Our guided 2-hour ride in the nearby slot canyon was fantastic. I HIGHLY recommend riding with the amazing team at the ranch.
We had 30 amp electric and water hookups, though some sites are just electric. The dump site may or may not be in service, ask before booking.
The restrooms and showers onsite are immaculate. Very clean, new, and well designed.
*Again, this is a private ranch first, not an RV campground. Stays here require a reservation. The owner dislikes people just driving onto the property. Call ahead.
GuideWe were traveling through and needed a place for the night. We pulled up to a spot where we could use the bunkhouse porch. The views from this ranch are amazing. The bathhouse was really cool—very creative. In fact, everything about this place is creative.
The work the owner is doing here by rescuing horses, donkeys, and goats is so important. Anything we can do to help her cause, we should absolutely.
TravelerNo problem with access for our 20’ BaseCamp
About 5 or 6 sites in the area, several with pull through
Beautiful views all around. Mostly quiet and away from it all.
GuideWe've camped here several times during the spring, summer and fall in our 26 foot toyhauler. Gets pretty hot in the heat of the summer but great in the shoulder seasons. Dirt access road that can get impassable when it rains (and believe them when they say impassable!). Not a lot of dispersed camp sites, maybe 6 or 7 in this immediate area.. if you drive down the road toward Lake Powell (Highway 389).. there are more places to camp, but the road can get washed out or blocked by falling rocks along the way, so be prepared to turn around and head back towards Cannonville.
LegendThe road in was very good in my opinion. Looks like it could close in severe weather. We were 5 minutes from Kodiochome State Park entrance. We have a 36' 5th wheel and found a great spot that we could pull around and stay hooked up. Level side to side was good at the lower part of the spot. W Fire pit was nice. Several other spots looked good for smaller rigs. Great location.
ScoutStayed for 2 nights with our 25’ trailer. Dirt road was fine! No one else was there! So amazing to have a cup of coffee and view the beautiful landscape. Short driving distance to Buckskin Canyon.
No problem with our Verizon phones.
RangerFirst off, no service (food, gas) within 25 miles, BUT I rented here for three days and the spot was perfect for nearby hiking trails (wire pass, toadstool hoodoos, buckskins gulch). Bathrooms were very nice, rest of the property under renovation.
RangerOptd to camp out here for the night. Was about 3 miles back off HW 89. Super peaceful area. Was able to pull my 22ft TT with my Ram 1500 just fine on the way to the spot. You could probably get up to a 30ft TT or RV back there. There were a lot of spots available, just need to continue driving back
