Part of the Bureau of Land Management's St. George Field Office area, Gooseberry Mesa provides dispersed camping accessible by passenger vehicle with careful driving. Campers can drive several hundred feet from the trailhead before encountering rocky terrain that requires higher ground clearance to continue further up the track.
The camping area features multiple fire pits at different elevations along the access track, with some sites offering partial shade from small trees during morning hours. Sand covers much of the ground and tends to stick to shoes and gear. An outhouse sits at the nearby bike trailhead, and the area serves mountain bikers exploring the mesa's trail system. Cell service reaches the camping area, and the remote location provides dark skies when the moon isn't full. For different terrain, Gooseberry Mesa BLM Dispersed near Virgin sits less than a mile north.
