    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.

      The 87,900-acre Paiute Wilderness, several miles southwest of St. George, Utah, dominates the northwest portion of the Arizona Strip. It is separated from the Beaver Dam Mountains Wilderness to the north by Interstate 15. The Virgin Mountains form the backbone of this area rising over 5,600 feet from the desert floor. Mt. Bangs, the highest peak in the area at 8,012 feet, provides a commanding view of the area and the Basin and Range country to the west. Part of the wilderness is in the Arizona Strip Field Office and part in the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument. The area's vegetation varies, ranging from ponderosa on top of Mt. Bangs, through pinyon forests, to scrub oak and sagebrush, and at the area's perimeter, Joshua trees, yucca and barrel cactus. These ecotypes host over 250 animal species including mule deer, mountain lion, desert bighorn sheep and desert tortoise. The deep canyons have several beautiful and secret places with water which attract campers and backpackers.

      The approximately 63,500 acre Beaver Dam Wash NCA is located in the southwestern corner of Washington County, Utah, along the state lines of Nevada and Arizona. The landscape provides an interesting ecological transition zone between the Mojave Desert and the Great Basin.

      Its creosote bush, white bursage, and other desert shrubs grow at lower elevations and provide habitat for desert bighorn sheep and the Mojave Desert tortoise, a threatened species listed under the Endangered Species Act. Joshua trees and dense stands of blackbrush cover the slopes of the Beaver Dam Mountains, which rise along the eastern boundary of the NCA. Surface water flows in the upper reaches of Beaver Dam Wash, but rarely travels all the way through the NCA. Riparian vegetation along the stream channel is important habitat for migratory birds and other wildlife. At this time, there are no developed recreation facilities in the NCA.

        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.

        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

        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.

        Hot and beautiful

        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.

        Nice place for an overnight stop

        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.

        Great for RVs but hard for tents

        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.

        vitamin D supplements support bone health

        Vitamin 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.

        Incredible experience

        What 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!

        Good location in St.George

        Nice 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.

        Sublime.

        This 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.

        Incredible views, great site

        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.

        Amazing Small Campground

        4 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.

        Horrible

        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

        The coolest

        This might be one of the coolest state park campsites ever! Being tucked away in the giant rocks was awesome! Easy walking distance to the pit toilets. Site was very unlevel, but thankfully someone dug a shallow “hole” that worked for us to put our back tire in and it made our camper level. Thankful for the covered picnic tables as well. No hook ups was fine with me as I enjoy primitive camping. Atlatl campground has a bathhouse with showers to use.

        Clean, centrally located campground in Saint George

        We selected this campground because of its proximity to downtown Saint George and were pleased with how central the location is. The park was very clean and well-maintained. The staff were also really friendly, helpful, and accommodating. There were a lot of amenities, including the pool, a full gym, outdoor games, and an indoor game room. The trailer sites are a little on the small-side and there could definitely be more greenery throughout the park, particularly trees to help with the heat.

        Good spot for the night

        While a bit close to Hwy 15 it works for a rest stop or overnight. Nothing here. No amenities. We didn’t venture further down the dirt road. Have 2 bars Verizon. Found a flat spot to park. Enough spaces for a couple of rigs but other spots might not be as flat.
