Best Cabin Camping near Mesquite, NV

Stopped in St. George after our stay in Zion a real contrast to be back in the city but our family appreciated the heated pool and hot tub, pool tables and ping pong and the invite to the all you could eat biscuits and gravy ($3) on the Saturday morning. Our son begged us to stay an extra night and very glad we did. Lovely town (historical area not far down the road) and felt very welcome and comfortable here. Lots of snowbirds and I feel like we got a glimpse what retirement could be like!

We have a 36’ Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed for just an overnight stop in early May. This is a fairly large resort and comprised mostly of permanent residents, but with several pull-through and back-in areas for transients. The sites are gravel and fairly close together. The pool and hot tub were nice after several days of boondocking at Lake Mead. 

AT&T coverage was quite good, with 4 Bars of 5G service and speeds up to 22 MB/s. We didn’t use the CG WiFi, since cell service was so good.

This KOA is located about ten minutes outside of St George and right off the I-15 freeway. It was all the amenities that your typical KOA has; dog park, hookups, cabins, and store. The best part of this KOA is its proximity to Red Cliffs National Conservation Area which is about a mile away. This National Conservation Area is surrounded by towering red cliffs that have miles of hiking trails through them. It's a great place to spend the day exploring. 

The only downside is the traffic noise on the I-15 at night. But if you are in your RV or van you will hardly notice it. This is a good campground for any trip to Zion or the surrounding area. 

Cell Service: Good

This park is not in St. George and off of a major highway. It’s not really a “getaway” by any means. We’re only here for one night. Spaces are small and very close to each other. Little to no privacy. Showers lack privacy as well.

Nice campsite. It was a bit cool when we went, not too busy - which is the way we like it.  The campsite itself was nice but it could get a bit loud with all the ATVs zooming past. If you're interested they do have rentals and the park is well maintained by the state.

We stayed at site 3. Nice view of the water. We did find a giant scorpion limping past so be aware. 

The dog and the kids had a lot of fun at the beach.

This has to be one of my most favorite state campgrounds thus far! Warm, blue and clear waters, red sand and red sandstone landscape all around. Location is convenient as there is a Walmart around the corner and St. George is not too far. There is not a bad spot in this campground. We've stayed Westside Campgrounds in Sites 4,6,7 and 15. All were great and had good spacing between the next spot over so you really have your space and privacy. The bathrooms were clean and the hot shower stalls were also clean. Campground hosts and rangers were all welcoming and super helpful. All the sites are a short walk to the water and it is gorgeous! Great for kids and adults. Nice and quiet campground and very clean all around. Each site has an area for a tent pad and came with a covered picnic table. Most sites are pretty leveled and well paved. There are sand dunes across the other side of the park along with the water rentals and the Sandpit Campgrounds. The beach is on the side of the Sandpit Campgrounds. The Sandpit Campgrounds have a few sites with hook ups but I'd only recommend it if you have your OHV to play with or else it'd be noisy and dusty. There is also a little restaurant on this side too. Book in advance up to 4 months because this place is a gem.

Sand Hollow is a beautiful man made lake with bright red sand and clear waters. This park allows for motorized and non motorized boats, off road vehicles, rentals, camping and dogs.

There are very limited spots by the water to camp, and fires are only allowed in specific fire rings. Outside firewood is not allowed. There is also an entrance fee to enter the park, National Park Passes will not work here.

There are nice day use areas, and areas designated for camping. Tents and RVs allowed, although most access roads are covered in thick sand. I would not recommend taking a low clearance vehicle. There is also a small restaurant for food and vault toilets for use.

You cannot camp around the entire lake. The back portion is fenced off, only allowing half of the lake to be occupied. I chose to camp as far away from the other campers by the backside of the lake. It was a very beautiful, sandy spot right by the water. However, it seemed like the other people staying at the park had no sense of respect or personal space. We set our tent up around 2:00pm and we constantly had ATV's, families with dogs off of the leash, fishermen etc walking/driving right through our site. This continued even through the night until quiet hours. Light and sound travel very well over this lake, so someone drunkenly singing with their buddies across the lake sounds like they are right next to you. People are driving their cars at all sorts of hours blinding you with the reflection off of the water. There are Park Rangers that drive around but don't seem to do anything. There was litter everywhere hidden in the sand. There are a couple of trees and bushes that provide some shade but I would recommend bringing a shade tent. There are also a couple of metal tables with attached chairs at some campsite locations.

This would be a beautiful location to visit for the day with your family. I would not recommend camping here overnight unless you don't enjoy personal space, respectful neighbors, quiet hours or humming RVs.

The scenery is something out of an outer space movie, making you feel more like your on a distant planet of bright red sand, black mountains, and crystal blue water.

This is a great place if you are looking to combine fun in the water with 4x4ing in the sand. This is not the place for quiet solitude, there are a lot of camping groups out here, looking to have a loud and rowdy time.

I stayed in the dispersed primitive camping. I thought I had found a quieter place away from most of the big groups. However, out here people are used to camping right next to their neighbors, so within a few hours a caravan of huge diesel motor homes with super long trailers pulled in within 5 feet of the bumper of my truck. Walking the area, this happens a lot. But, the people are super friendly and made sure I had a clear exit for my vehicle.

I drove through the camp grounds. One is close to the entrance with full hookups and level hard packed parking areas. The other is directly across from a pedestrian only beach. Both are nicely laid out, with typical spacing for a state park.

Put toilets re abundant, as are fire rings and picnic tables. There is a cute beach side store for any odds and ends you might need, a quick bite, or to rent off road and on the water toys. This is truly a wonderful family get away!

Make sure to mind the signs about staying on the road. There are designated trails you must take until you are out in the sand dunes. I saw two different groups trying to get vehicles unstuck that had dug in to the sand up to their frames by going in undesignated areas. The sand is super deep and very soft.

The vegetation is mostly low, with very little protection from the wind. There are larger trees right on the waters edge. If the wind picks up, you will find out if your rig is air tight. I had a pretty thick layer of red dust everywhere in my pop-up A-Frame. But, it’s light and soft, so nothing felt gritty… again another example of how this place is out of this world.

Lovely rv park. Laundromat was clean, office was friendly. Very large park and convenient. Nice size pool which was made so it appeared private.

St George is amazing. Tons of activities. We came for mountain biking, hiking and climbing. Mcarthur's Templeview is a central location to those activities which makes it great. There are pros and cons to this RV park, just like any other.

Pros: Pool, spa, showers, outdoor activities, gym, etc Regular full hookup sites are decent size and have parking for 2 vehicles.

Cons Expensive, our average rate for a week was over $70/night No security gate Spa is small, outdoor activities are meager (though they do exist)

When we were there they had temporary sites set up with water and electric but no sewer. As well as dry camping in a neighboring lot. Both have access to the dump station.

The Temple View RV Resort in St. George was nice even though the lots are not paved. They have a covered bubble swimming pool, shuffleboard, billiards, and a lot of different scheduled events you can participate in. 50amp full hookups including cable TV and Strong wifi. It's located 10 minutes off the highway. Lot of single wide, well kept trailers that are lined with palm trees. Many high end RV coach's (250k UP) Only issue we had the 2 days we stayed was low water pressure entire stay. Called the office to see if the pressures could be raised and was told to wait a few minutes and try. Well I tryed around 100 times for taking a shower and ended up unable to in our new RV and it wasn't our RV's problem as both neighbors next to me also said their water pressures were weak... Still, its a nice place with nice people. Felt safe & comfortable.

We were on a road trip around Utah and decided to stop in the town of Saint George to get a bite to eat. We ended up taking our time to eat. By the time that we finished it was already dark and a little bit late. We didn't feel like driving far to a State or National Park, so we looked on TheDyrt app for nearby campgrounds. We found the McArthur's Temple View RV Resort right in the middle of town. 

We first attempted to call the resort to see if they had any openings, but it was a Sunday evening and their office was closed. We were close by so we decided to just cruise over to the site. We found the office and luckily they had an after hours info kiosk with information about available campsites. We found one that was located right behind the office and adjacent to the restroom which worked out perfect for our needs. 

The resort has many other amenities that we did not have time to take advantage of such as a pool, shuffleboard, cable tv, movie theatre, etc. It appears that this is both a long term and short term RV resort with many amenities. We paid the fee via the dropbox which was about $42. The restrooms and all the facilities were clean and accessible. At this resort, you're located in the middle of town, so don't expect easy access to natural areas. However, there are natural areas nearby the town of Saint George. 

The next day we drove to the nearby Valley of Fire State Park and had a blast. 

Caveat: The resort's name is McArthur's Temple View RV Resort which kinda indicates that while at the resort you may view the Saint George Mormon Temple. We could view the temple from an open area within the resort, but not every campsite has a temple view. It's best to simply drive to the nearby temple and check it out if you are so inclined.
