Camping on public lands away from developed recreation facilities is referred to as dispersed camping. Most of the remainder of public lands are open to dispersed camping, as long as it does not conflict with other authorized uses or in areas posted "closed to camping," or in some way adversely affects wildlife species or natural resources. Dispersed camping is allowed on public land for a period not to exceed 14 days within a 28 consecutive day period. The 28 day period begins when a camper initially occupies a specific location on public lands. The 14 day limit may be reached either through a number of separate visits or through 14 days of continuous overnight occupation during the 28 day period. After the 14th day of occupation, the camper must move outside of a 25 mile radius of the previous location until the 29th day since the initial occupation. The purpose of this special rule is to prevent damage to sensitive resources caused by continual use of any particular areas. In addition, campers must not leave any personal property unattended for more than 10 days (12 months in Alaska). Campsite Selection Dispersed camp sites are located along most secondary roads and may not be marked. Popular locations can be recognized by the telltale flat disturbed area that has been used as a camp site before. Not all flat spots are sites. If possible, please use existing sites to avoid creating new disturbances. To further protect your public lands, campers must not dispose of any refuse, hazardous materials, sewage, or in any manner pollute the surrounding area.

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.

Nice, quiet, flat areas that are perfect for big rigs. 14 day limit. Road coming in a tad bumpy but not horrible if you take your time. Beautiful view of the Lake! Will come back here for sure.

Ich habe hier 2 Nächte verbracht. Ich bin alleine unterwegs und ich habe mich noch nie so sicher an einem Ort gefühlt wie hier. Und man hat hier super Internet! (iPhone 13 t-Mobile

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
TravelerPeaceful and quiet, zero light pollution, campfire pits on most of the parking spots, cool views of virgin river. Highly recommended!
Guide
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.

Went at the wrong time of year because it was very hot and we had no AC, yikes. The rocks retain all the daytime heat and then release that stored heat through the night.
At a better time of year, when it is cool, it would be a great place to visit, hike and explorer.
Guide
Although it was after 5pm they answered the phone! And said we could call up to 9:00 pm if we needed anything. Free WiFi ! Bathrooms are ok, looks like they did some recent remodeling that isn’t quite finished yet, unfortunately they lock up the bathroom/laundry room at 8:00pm. It would be so simple to install a coded door lock to make it accessible 24/7. It appears to have mostly long term residents. Some minor road noise due to the highway and truck stops. Some fast food restaurants within a 5 minute drive.

My husband and I were looking for a long term (14 day) spot to move to when the weather changed at our high-elevation spot, so we jumped on The Dyrt and found this one on Gubler Rd. Unfortunately we packed up a bit too late in the day and we ended up getting here right after dark. The road is fairly narrow (although it fits a Class A just fine) and slightly bumpy, and, because we've never been here before, I was worried that we might get stuck up the road and not be able to turn around. So as soon as we found a spot that looked like it would fit our 36' rig, we took it, even though it's not private (which we normally prefer).
About a third up the road, we found a (sort of) spot that fit our Class A, so we took it. It's at the beginning of the trailhead, right next to the cattle guard in the road, so I don't know that it's actually technically intended to be a camping spot, but like I said, it's the only one that fits our rig and it was nighttime when we got here, so we grabbed it.
So here are the pros and cons:
Pros:
• The road is well maintained, with some bumpiness, but no holes or deep potholes.
• There are quite a few spots that would be good for tents and a few that would be good for vans. We didn't go the entire length of the road, but we went most of it and the spot we took is the only one we've seen that would fit a Class A or larger Class C. There's a spot farther up the trail that would fit a standard Class C.
• It's a relatively secluded spot. There are houses farther up and down the road, but you can't hear or see them.
Cons:
• People ride by on their ATVs and motorbikes every couple of hours. Last night, a guy in a truck literally drove by our rig up and down the trail going about 45 mph twice in two hours, which made me really nervous, because the trail is only about 10 feet from our rig. And today, a guy drove by on his ATV and rode directly through our campsite, paused while sitting next to our rig, and craned his neck to try to see into our rig. It was weird and I almost ran out there to yell at him to get lost.
• No shade. There are a bunch of juniper trees and a lot of scrub brush, but nothing for shade.
• It gets HOT out here, because there's no shade. Even though the weather says it's only 93°, it feels hotter because the sun is beating down directly on you, so I wouldn't recommend staying here unless you have air conditioning or, if you're in a tent, a lot of water.
• It's EXTREMELY dusty here. When we came here, my husband was driving our rig and I was driving our toad behind him and he was kicking up so much dust, even going 5mph down the road, that I literally couldn't see the rig right in front of me.
• The spot we're at is literally right next to the road, so we notice every bit of traffic. There's usually someone going down there road every few hours, so if you're looking for a private spot and you have a Class A or larger Class C, keep looking.
• The road is pretty hard packed, but some spots are sandy and the whole place would probably be a mess in the rain.
• A LOT of regular traffic, with pickup trucks, atvs, etc. going by.
• People shoot out here and there are a ton of bullets and broken glass to show for it. 2 evenings ago, we were walking our dogs, when we came upon a pickup truck parked in a spot where no one had been earlier in the day. So we spoke loudly and announced that we didn't realize anyone was there and we were leaving. Literally 10 seconds later, a shotgun blast went off and my husband, our dogs and I all jumped. They were shooting just a few feet away from us. So if you have dogs, DO NOT let them run around off leash in this area.
I don't really feel comfortable here because I prefer really private and remote spots, but it seems safe. The light traffic probably wouldn't bother someone who doesn't mind camping around other people.
For our needs, this has been a good spot to rest for a couple of nights, but we'll be moving on tomorrow to find someplace that's more quiet and remote for long-term (14 days).
LegendSunny, windy, near beach and quad trail, birds and critters. Table, shelter, power, water and cement pad. Drive thru. Very knowledgeable gate staff
TravelerWe 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.

One of the most beautiful campgrounds ever. We had campground 8 and it was great. Very isolated and it had shade in the morning and evening. Unfortunately we only stayed a single night because the temperature was 108° during the day.

We were showing this spot by a local and love it. We have been warned about water levels in the winter times during flash floods but the scenery and temperature change were incredible compared to town. Plenty of room for the dogs to roam, OHV fanatics would love it.
TravelerVitamin D supplements play a crucial role in supporting bone health by aiding the body's absorption of calcium, which is essential for maintaining strong and healthy bones. Without adequate vitamin D, bones can become thin, brittle, and more prone to fractures. This is particularly important in regions with limited sunlight, such as the UK, where many people may not get enough natural vitamin D. Taking the best vitamin D supplements UK can help ensure that your body has the necessary levels to support bone density and overall skeletal health, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and other bone-related conditions.

Full hook ups, friendly staff, beautiful grounds and views. Close to amenities
GuideWhat a magical night spent surrounded by red rock. We stayed in campsite 21 from a previous reviewer and it was amazing. Gorgeous scenery and rams walking around. There was some toilets at the entrance, hot showers available for free at neighboring campsite. We had absolutely no phone service here. Private picnic table with cover and fire pit for each site. Definitely a must visit but be prepared for the heat and sand!
LegendNice sized sites. We had a pull through. After check in we were escorted to our site and given information about the park. The strange was it wasn't clear on where to park the tow vehicle, although you will have plenty of room once you figure it out. It just looks like you are parking in another site. It is an hour to Zion NP if you are there for that. Other parks are closer to the park, but we were coming from SoCal, so enough towing for one day. All the hook ups worked fine and were laid out fine.
GuideThis entire region is breathtakingly beautiful. The campground is small with a pit toilet at one end. My large, private spot backed up to spectacular rock formations. There was water at the site, but no electric. The dump station was located as you exited the campground and perfect for my needs. Absolutely loved it there. My dog and I were greeted by a pair of bighorn sheep that hung around the area the entire time we were there. Absolutely loved it.

Found the perfect spot empty with one fire ring… on a Thursday, drove past open sites to one against the canyon, parked early around 2pm— only to look out around 7pm to see not one but two separate vehicles setup and people just STANDING literally right outside our camp window. Seriously people… give some space!! They were walking around our vehicle within 5 feet on the side that is not connected to their site at all but completely in our personal space. Seriously doubt they would appreciate people to hover around their camp like that, be respectful people.
There are so many other spots that were ALL open. Even posted photos of some of the empty sites available! After a day of dealing with the crowds of Zion we were ready for some private tranquility, at least they were quiet.
Next morning: Awake to take photos of the sunrise and greeted by someone going to defecate in the hills. (said nothing to me but had a roll of tp)
Other than the neighbors not respecting personal space, this site was beautiful. You could still hear a low hum of the hi-way. Great phone service.
TravelerVery windy, but large area so tons of room to spread out and camp. We drove closer to the water in our awd car
Traveler
We were in site 16A. It was close to 16B, which would be perfect for a large group, but we had plenty of privacy. Our site could have had 3-4 large tents with plenty of room. There was another group at 16B and we could see them, but it was very quiet at night. The hikes her easy and fun and we will definitely go back.
Guide4 mile long campground with lava tunnels, petrified, sand dunes, and red cliff cliffs. Access to 14 miles of trails only 50 yards from the campgrounds. All RV sites are paved and close together, non-electric sites have a little more space. The campground is also the site of the Rangers station so a lot of traffic during the day but very quiet at night.
Was a fantastic place for the work week with easy hikes after the workday was done. The campground is surrounded by high red rocks and is a beautiful scenic setting.

This campground is the worse in lake mead rec area! Nothing has been done, no lights in the bathroom half the toilets are half functional, the guys who drives around in his canam is always drunk an shirtless claims he is the maitance man for the area,
If you have children I do not recommend camping here better places for the same price. Las vagas bay! The parks service is a disgrace when it comes to keeping echo bay up to date will never return for my children to be exposed to drunk park employee,
The store is over priced an misleading as the sign says showers but you must stay at the rv park for those amenities this whole little campground is a joke! Most people don't even pay
Travelerwe just came in randomly no Pre book
