Cook’s Messa Trailhead Dispersed Camping Site 2

Has fire pits which is great and easy spots for RVs and such. Lots of tent camping sites too. There is some city light in the distance but still great spot for the night sky. Close to Capitol Reef so day trips were easy. Would recommend besides road noise during the day. Not much at night.

Great views, easy access, plenty of spots, and right next to the entrance of Capitol Reef! Loved it.

Right off highway but a very short rocky road, be careful if in a car but should be okay. Good cellphone signal and close to the park and right outside town so from a location perspective ita an A+ for proximity. But this is a pile in spot. The main area here is not secluded its a large oval with some little branch offs, nothing is very defined. At night people juat pile in where they can fit and go to sleep. If you venture around and have 4x4 you might be able to find some better spots but dont try it in the dark. Its VERY dark out here. Overall no issues even with others very close by maybe I was lucky but on my night everyone just wanted a safe place to sleep and we all were respectful
