Best RV Parks & Resorts near Big Water, UT

This is a great RV Park. The location is superb. The space between sites is very generous. Interior roads are very easy to navigate for big rigs. Very quiet at night. This place is designed right. Site was big enough for our 40 foot 5th wheel. The views of Lake Powell were awesome! The campground is maintained very well. Wifi is almost useless and there is no cable. Due to the location there are no TV channels with antennas. My only reason for not giving it five stars was the staff in the camp store/ registration. We have been to many campgrounds and the staff in the camp store were some of the worst we have ever dealt with. They do not greet you or smile. If you ask a question you will get an answer that is probably incorrect. They do not try to help or explain anything. We camped at Wahweap RV and Campground in a Fifth Wheel.

If I had to describe Arizona camping then this would be the perfect campground description. Such a beautiful area with a pristine CG to boot.

More red than green, awesome views of the Colorado as well as easy access which I benefited from due to the float trip we came for, and wonderful people camping here in numerous different setups. Everything from vans to RVs to toy haulers and cars with tents.

Clean restrooms and some of the best in the entire state IMO, as well as water and for the big rigs there’s a dump station but my site didn’t have any other RV amenities so I’m pretty sure that’s it

Couple great hikes nearby that give even better views of the area and if you can handle the heat I’d recommend them

Fishing is per the usual in the Colorado and it wasn’t too great for my trip but probably more my fault

Marble Canyon is nearby if you need anything but it’s extremely quiet right now

It stayed pretty busy over my 2 day stay. When I pulled in on a Thursday I was able to grab 1 of 6 empty spots. By the time i left Saturday it was full constantly. As usual my cell service wasn’t very dependable

We camped here Feb 4-7 2021 and there were about 4-5 other campers on over a mile of beach. Our nearest neighbor was about 100 yards away. During the day on the weekend more people showed up for day use but there weren't ever more than 30 people on a HUGE stretch of beach. The beach can accommodate any size rig easily. The most important thing to remember when getting there.... SCOUT AHEAD! Either on foot or with a 4x4 so you can plan your route out to the beach. One wrong turn and you will be up to your frame in soft sand. But there are plenty of hard pack routes to get out there as long as you scout ahead. I saw a 45ft class A, I have a 35ft toy hauler, people were driving 2 wheel drive cars out there for the day. I did pull a Mini Cooper out that was stuck up to the frame and I almost got stuck with my 4x4 Ram truck. So planning is key. This is going to be one of my go to winter camping spots. I don't like camping with lots of people so Feb was perfect. Temps were high 50s during the day and lows were high 20s. Never more than a breeze and not a single bug to be found. Summer is a whole different story, I'm sure. Lake Powell is notorious for wind/sand storms in the afternoons but we didn't have any of that. The potable water fill, flush toilets, and showers were closed for the season but the vault toilets on the beach were open. The Pilot gas station that is a 3 minute drive has a dump station and potable water that worked out perfectly. I can't recommend this spot enough! YouTube video link: https://youtu.be/6hqRPstunaM

My wife and I are digital nomads, we run our company where ever we go so it's CRUCIAL that we have comfort items, but most importantly that we have **solid internet. **

We travel with 3 kids (ages 5, 3 & 3), 3 dogs, a cat, and a grandma in our 31' Travel Lite, Evoke Model B with the hopes of a road school education for them. EmpoweringHumansAdventures.com

We booked a deluxe premium site (site 16) and were very pleased with the room, the patio, the fire pit, grill, and nice table.  The parking was gravel and not flat, we had to level up.  Had access to 50 and 30 amp, sewer, and water.  Make sure you use a pressure monitor as the pressure was strong.  They offered firewood for sale and our fire pit was very nice.

We were close to the clubhouse which had coffee daily for a charge. ($1.30)  The store had the basics and all but one of the staff was extremely kind to us. If you need more you could walk to Sinclair and get more items.

They were very specific about dogs being leashed all the time, which we fully agree with.  As a former Marine K9 handler, it's normally not the dog that is the problem, it's the handler.  The dog area is very close to site 16.

The basic internet was blah, we upgraded to the faster speeds for $5.23 a day and it was well worth it.  We were able to stream tv for the kids, work on the laptops and do live video conferencing.  Support was very quick to respond when I asked for speed but they weren't able to give me more, but again it was good enough to get work done, stream and do video conferencing.  

Cell coverage was ZERO for Sprint, and have to drive a ½ mile before getting coverage.

Overall the campground was pretty quiet, we are pretty close to the highway so you did have some large/loud trucks that drove by.

There are showers (very small) but the water pressure was great and the water was hot.  Bathrooms are always clean and the laundry was just fine.

We shot a few videos to share our experience and will stay here again.  

Mossy Cave was very close and we highly suggest the short hike back to the waterfall.  A little further is the petrefried forest which was also nice.

You can zip over to Bryce Canyon National park ($38 entry fee) for the day.  It's well worth it and there's a ice cream shop just before you go into the park that I recommend.

Things we loved:

• The deluxe Premium site is great if you have small kids.

• Internet was solid and gave us what we needed

• This campground was extremely clean

No so much:

• No cell service

• Feels very old

• Road noise

Hope this review helps, we hope to see you on the road!

We stayed 4 nights at this place. There are no showers and the restrooms are non flushable. There is water located in designated areas. No hookups or dump stations. You have to head towards Bryce Canyon to dump. Garbage is also disposed of off the main road before heading on the road where the campsites located. The hosts were very nice and answered any questions we had. Bugs weren’t bad, but it is a campground mainly used for fishing and people that have side by sides so it can get noisy. If I had a side by side id definitely bring it here to tear up some trails and do disperse camping. Do not I repeat do not take your big rig up Powell Point it will take you awhile to find a spot to turn around and come back down. My grandparents did this with their travel trailer which is 27 in length and they tore up their stairs underneath. All in all I’d stay again.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Grand Plateau RV Resort in Kanab, Utah, and I can’t say enough good things about this place. Here’s why it deserves a glowing review:

Stunning Location: Nestled in the heart of Utah’s red rock country, Grand Plateau offers breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. The sunrises and sunsets are nothing short of magical. Spacious Sites: The RV sites are generously sized, allowing for comfortable parking and outdoor living. Whether you’re in a motorhome or pulling a trailer, you’ll appreciate the ample space. Impeccable Facilities: The resort is brand new, and it shows. Everything is meticulously maintained, from the clean showers and restrooms to the well-stocked store. The laundry room is a bonus for longer stays. Friendly Staff: The staff members are warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the area. They provided excellent recommendations for local hikes and dining options. Convenient Access: Grand Plateau is conveniently located near Kanab, making it easy to explore nearby attractions like Peekaboo Canyon and Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park. Peaceful Nights: The quiet surroundings ensure a restful night’s sleep. No highway noise or city hustle—just the sound of nature. Hot Tub and Pool: After a day of hiking, I enjoyed unwinding in the hot tub while gazing at the star-filled sky. The pool area is equally inviting. Propane Available: Need to top up your propane tank? Grand Plateau has you covered. In summary, if you’re seeking a tranquil RV retreat with top-notch amenities and unbeatable views, look no further than Grand Plateau RV Resort. It’s a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. 🌄🚐✨

Great location. Nice mountain views. Horses across the road. Mule deer out back occasionally. Small RV park with a lot of small cabins. RV spots are small, gravel, and pretty tight. Some sites are not very level. Fire pits and picnic tables. A few sites had a nice brick patio with table & chairs. 2 bars Verizon. Terrible WiFi that is provided by 3d party. Need to register. Keeps quitting.

Private showers and shared bathrooms. All very clean. Laundry: washers are $6.50!

A nice little playground, used pretty regularly by little ones. Lots of space to walk dogs out back. It’s right on main road but not too noisy.

We would stay there again if back in that area.
