Top 10 Equestrian Campgrounds near Capitol Reef National Park

We only got to stay one night in one of the cabins, and definitely wish it was more! The cabin was really cozy and clean. The staff was very friendly at check-in, ensuring we had everything we needed. We watched mule deer out the window for a while and had fantastic views around us. Will definitely be coming back on another trip through Utah!

Spot on right side, end of a big gravel looking parking lot. Just below two big rock formations and beside a dry creek bed.

This hidden campsite is great, remote camp sites, covered in trees, extremely quite. There is no cell phone service and the closest town is 35 minutes. Bring your own wood, they do not sell wood. Running fresh spring water, but no dish washing station. Be prepared. Also no showers. Even though this is a little bit of a damper, the views make up for all of it. They have a trail that takes you to a look out in the top of the mountain. Absolutely breathtaking view. Hike is moderate, with a pretty steep incline up. Also have a pond with fishing and non motorized boats allowed. I highly recommend you pick site 15 for it’s really private and the most elevated campsite. This campground is truly a hidden gem. Will definitely return! 🌞

Honestly this is easily one of my favorite campgrounds, the lake is awesome for fishing. The campground is well taken care of and the water taps are strategically spaced out between campsites. We went and had the majority of the campground to ourselves, it was awesome to have the campsites be so close to trails.

Definitely top ten favorite ones. Quiet and spacious

Excellent uncrowded trout lake. Eight acres among the pines. Good sized rainbows and brooks. Occasional arctic greylings. Modern designed toilets. Potable water provided. Non motorized boats allowed on lake. Perfect for kayak fishing amongst the mountain paradise. Good base camp to explore Boulder Mountain, Escalante Grand Staircase, and Lake Powell at Hole in the Rock. But PLEASE don’t tell anyone! Let’s keep this gem a secret!

We arrived here in a winter storm and were very happy to find an open RV park as most campgrounds and other RV parks were closed for the season. We did not need full-hook ups but we were asked to use the RV sites anyways (just not use the power, sewage connections) as the regular sites were not plowed. Lots of snow fell during the afternoon/evening but maintenance person plowed in the morning. Nice hot showers with nice hot pressure in laundry room. Wifi and excellent cell coverage on Verizon, spotty on AT&T. The little town of Escalante has several restaurants, a brew pub, a natural market and a general store. All restaurants were closed though except for Nemo drive-through which had good burgers food to go. A great place to anchor down in a winter storm.

We were happily surprised by the lovely, clean bathrooms, the friendliness of the staff, etc.

The only thing is the campsites were pretty close to each other, so if you want lots of space, this may not be the best for you.

Stayed for two nights. We picked a corner spot which coincidentally was the farthest from the office - the only restrooms in the park. Tons of rv spaces and the park was only about 1/3 full so there was decent privacy. Views of canyons in the distance, but behind a neighboring trailer park. Facilities were great, laundry, showers, restrooms, 110 plug-in and water were great. Site was really Sandy so make sure to bring entry mats for this campground!

Fantastic deal, although in hindsight there are hundreds of BLM spots within 2 miles so we would have boondocked had we known. The campground is fantastic - we chose a tent spot for our 24 ft camper and spent $33 for a beautiful spot hidden away in the trees. Free potable water and FREE showers in a beautiful facility (use the tent camping bathroom). Did 3 massive loads of laundry and dried for $20. Super friendly, convenient, would definitely go back

First time staying in an RV park. He were very happy with the facilities. The only reason I am giving a 4 star is because it could have been stocked better. There was never toilet paper or hand soap and 2 of the showers were permanently locked. Great location and close to town.

Really great WiFi, great location and pretty wide spots. Will visit again for sure!

We were here for 7 nights mid-November. It was very cold so we had to disconnect water at night but hook-ups were easy to use and worked well. Sites are gravel, fairly level and very large. Plenty of room for trailer and truck in site. Wi-Fi was weak even right by the office but, if you're patient (or have a booster) it's fine. Bathrooms/showers in the laundromat were clean and in good repair. Laundry was good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Not a lot to do super close by but not too far from good stuff!

We have stayed here a few times over the last 12 months. It makes for a great place to set up shop after coming off a few days of boondocking. the laundry, showers, and customer service are all great. We always pick a location near the showers, however, seeing how much they have expanded we might stay for longer next time at one of their new spots.

Be ware of bears. Use the food boxes.

This is a fun place to visit while in Wayne County. The fishing is awesome and there is always lots of wildlife to see. You can also camp in the aspen tree.

Big campsites with tables, close to Fish Lake and lots of mountain views.

Perfect for trail enthusiasts. Plenty of places to explore. Some sites have corrals and some only have hitching posts. Clean bathrooms. There is water, however there are no showers. You can pay 3 dollars at a lodge about 10 minutes away and take a shower there.
