Several campgrounds offer on-site dump stations, while others require using facilities at Duck Creek Campground for a fee of $8.

Most parks accommodate pets with designated areas, and laundry facilities are available at select locations. Seasonal closures affect some properties between November and March due to snow conditions.
"Overall great rv sites with full hook ups, level sites, some shade trees depending on site. Both sites we stayed in did not offer much shade but at least good to have greenery around."
"We couldn’t get in the park and this is literally directly outside the park with full hookups and shuttle stops at the campground. We stayed in site 62 which was a pull through."
"There are large pull thru's and back-in sites. They even have a few tent sites. It is right off of Highway 14 and can be noisy, however we didn't have any issues sleeping. "
"Cedar Canyon Retreat is a cute little campground close to Cedar Breaks National Monument and to the town of Brian Head. We stayed in our 30' TT and site 20 was plenty big enough."
from $25 - $250 / night
"It's right next to a lake, has tent sites, a pool (no spa though), a dog run and a small camp store. There's a lot to do in the area, close to a Walmart."
"We stayed at this KOA in our motor home over a Memorial day weekend in 2019. We had 50A power, city water and sewer. Power stayed on even during a windy down pour one night. "
"Very nice place with full hookups. They have a pool/jacuzzi that is opening soon. We stayed here as base camp and spent our days 20 minutes up the mountain skiing at Brian Head. Great stay"
"Their Mission: is to share, nurture and invite others to the beauty that Nature has to offer and to provide a safe place to stay. Let’s help them out and leave some reviews!"

"They're location is perfect for exploring the lesser traveled part of Zion National Park, Kolob Canyons. Check them out and post some pictures here!"
Available this weekend
"There’s free WiFi, laundry facilities, and a game room. Also a nice little restaurant within walking distance (right across the street)."
"Four stars only because of the complete lack of Wi-Fi as promised in the campgrounds. If you went into the Hut with the laundry room, showers and game room service was perfect."
from $40 - $54 / night
"The park is conveniently located whether you want to ride the East or West side/s of Cedar City. The park is clean, mostly level, and has a nice dog park. "
"Nice clean park and quiet. Nice little dog park. Management was friendly and easy to work with as we wanted to add an additional night's stay."
"Facilities were clean and well lit. Older campground well situated for seeing the numerous national parks in the area. Level site, power and wifi okay."
"Small RV Camping Park, Just enough distance from Highway, lawn and trees, very friendly staff, clean and appropriate restrooms."
"area for tents, it really is just an RV park, with a good percentage of full-time residents."
"In fact the less amenities, humans, post markers the better for me. I like solitude, feeling like you're in the wild. I like to be close to nature. This place-- it did not look appealing."
"The views of the granite rock formations, and the valley that stretches about 5 miles or so to another mountain range."
ScoutWhat a great place to stay for the cheap price of $29 per night for full hookups. The roads getting in are great and had no issue at all. RV site all gravel and subject to a few puddles, but all in all for the price and amenities, it’s a great place.
LegendBeautiful area. Came on a very rainy weekend unfortunately so most campsites were flooded a decent bit. The sidewalks flood and get very slick due to the red clay turning into mud. Like that the bathrooms have a designated spot to go wash your dishes. Seemed in general a very clean campground. Stayed 2 nights. No noise issues with anyone nearby.
LegendNothing too grand. Most sites are very off level for van camping. Each site has a pretty leveled off space for tents. Pit toilets are some of the cleanest ones I have ever seen. Bike trails go through this campground as well. Sign in front states 12$ a night booking online only. With an 8$ fee. So 20$
ScoutLarge clean park with new improvements. Only drawback might be the payment kiosk was a bit confusing and the layout of the big RV area was a bit ambiguous.
GuideStayed for 2 nights at the Bryce View CG (no hookups). Was very quiet with beautiful views from our site. Sites are well spaced and most feel private. Flush toilets but no hot water in this CG bathroom, potable water and dumpster, and firewood available (small bundles) at the CG for $10/each (cash only) so I would recommend stopping to get some outside the park. Basin CG loop has bathrooms with hot water and great hot showers (free...included in your camping fee). There is a nice store/gift shop and you can also rent mountain bikes. Several hiking trails. Beautiful hiking among the sandstone formations. Beautiful park.
TravelerSolo girlie pop car camper- Great reception, clear sites. Felt safe. Some trash in the fire ring but people are gonna people I guess. I used someone’s satellite photo to access the spot, as it showed a paved road access rather than the bumpy version. I didn’t to too far in but my Subaru forester sport had no issues. Only stayed one night.
GuideNice views and close to town yet far enough away to be quiet. Only a couple other people here. Most sites are pretty small and on the back half the most are pretty slanted. We had to change sites because the first one required 12 inches at the front to get level. Road in is a little bump but not bad at all.
ScoutSpots are flat, easy access, good size and only about 10 miles from Bryce
GuideNice basic RV camp. Spot A04 was flat enough that leveling system was able to finish leveling without much effort. Bathrooms were clean but dated. Traffic noise was there but not overwhelming. Gas stations and grocery stores were near by making it convenient to restock or fill up before heading down the road. Staff was friendly and outgoing. Dog run was adequate in size.
The majority of RV campgrounds near Brian Head, Utah sit at elevations between 5,800 and 8,200 feet, creating distinct camping conditions compared to lower-altitude locations.

Clean shower facilities: Bathroom quality varies significantly between campgrounds. "The bathrooms were incredibly well kept and clean with running toilets, sinks, and showers," reports one tent camper at Cedar Canyon Retreat.
RV site spacing: Some parks offer more separation between spaces. "The sites were roomy and all of ours were pretty level. The hookups on our sites were more to one end of the site and not so much in the middle," according to a reviewer at Ruby's Inn, who appreciated the layout.
Road noise considerations: Highway proximity affects some campgrounds more than others. "It's right off the highway, which makes it easy to get to but not super quiet," explains a camper at Zion RV and Campground.
Steep road grades: Vehicle capabilities matter when traveling to higher elevations. The climb to Brian Head features significant inclines on paved roads that require proper vehicle preparation.

Dog-friendly options: Pet policies and amenities differ between parks. "They have a big grassy dog park for him to run and play in, he loves running in the sprinklers! It's two sided and completely fenced in so large and small breeds can have their own safe space," notes a camper at Mammoth Creek RV Resort.
