Capitol Reef National Park Dispersed Camping
Ideal for a night or two
A large space, though uneven in parts. We pulled in later so there were a few folks already parked up for the night. A quiet nights sleep.

Fabulous for a naked campout
This is one of the reviews that I'm just now getting around to now that cooler weather has set in. I was here in September last year while on my annual naked road trip, and this area is one of my favorites. It's the perfect place to camp, relax and enjoy nature. Not crowded, lots of space, no one cares if you're nude or not. There was plenty of space between campers so you can have as much privacy as you want. Several people were camped naked here same as me, some were not. No one cared. The lake level has really gone down low, so it's a hike to get to the water, but there's nothing wrong with a nice nude hike with a day in the water at the end. Perfect naked campout location and I'll definitely be back.

Stunning Views
Fit my 22' TT without issue. Road is a bit rocky to get into the better sites, but there is a spot right off the turnoff that would accommodate bigger rigs. Woke up to a herd of Elk grazing outside the camper and a gorgeous sunrise. Will definitely stop here again when I'm coming through

Fruita Campground — Capitol Reef National Park
Unique NP camping.
Well spaced, paved camping sites in a shaded campground. Fruit orchards all around with the Fremont River flowing nearby. Heated bathrooms that are spotless. Stop by the Gifford house for fresh baked pies. As of October 2024, the visitor center parking lot is still under construction, and the scenic drive is closed for the same. Also. Make a campsite reservation before you arrive as there are no payment stations in the campground. If you don't the visitor center has Wi-Fi as there is no cell service in the park. Oh. And loop C is the only campground that allows generators. Enjoy Capitol Reef.

Hole in the Rock Road Dispersed at Utah 24
Plenty of space
A beautiful camp to set up RVs, vans, and tents. Plenty of space. There were several others here and did not feel close to anyone. Fire pits are available, but they are just slightly dug holes with small rocks. Recommend reinforcing the rocks before use.

Perfect Spot Close to Capitol Reef NP
Great place to stay close to Torrey, Utah, and Capitol Reef NP. There are lots of places to choose from with some spots with make shift fire rings. Great views of the Boulder Mountains, Thousands Lake Mountains, and Capitol Reef in the distance. There are no restrooms, water or electricity. Close to Torrey where you can find the essentials.

Quiet spot, great views
Calf Creek campground was full and the host told us about this spot. Up a dirt road you end up just below the radio tower. Very private and quiet

Hole in the road
Bumpy dirt road going in. Large area with plenty of private dispersed camping spots.

Capitol Reef National Park Dispersed Camping
A great hike
If you have a 4x4, we recommend pulling back slightly to the right as far as you can. We went back and got tucked into a more secluded nook with a good fire ring. It looks bumpy and uneven, but it’s possible to level a vehicle that’s 21 feet and under.
The hike up above the site is really beautiful. The trail took us up above the cliff edge that borders the site. From there you have sweeping views of the valley and out to the mountains in both directions.
Important to note:
- There are no toilet facilities and no places to dig a hole
- There were people using generators
- If you tuck back into a far site, you can avoid most the the road and generator noise
- If it’s going to rain, this would be a slick and slippery location
- The Wild Rabbit Cafe in Torrey is an excellent place for breakfast and coffee

~$13.50/night to park in the gravel lot. I’ve got a RTT so it worked out perfectly. Full access to shop/restaurant, laundry, dish sink and shower (very hot, which was awesome).
Covered picnic tables and a communal fire pit nearby. Great alternative to the numerous BLM sites in and around town.

Spencer Flat Dispersed Camping - Grand Staircase Nat Mon
Quiet, Secluded, SANDY
Although the sand wasn’t a surprise, i was shocked at how much it stuck to everything LOL! But the site had lots of dedicated spots for camping and went on the quite a few miles. The view was beautiful, but we were nervous about mountain lions as we noticed a lot of tracks when we arrived, and saw even more next to our car in the morning as we were leaving. The road in isn’t very rough, just lots of sand and small bumps. Would stay here again!

Loved this stay!
Up on a mesa (not super high that it’s a tough climb), on Notom road which is paved, then turn on dirt road not far from Hwy 24 (maybe 1/4-1/2 mile). Only two other campers about a football field apart from me. Amazing view of Henry mountains and sunrise!! Made it slowly in my front wheel drive van over the rocks that stick up. No problem. Just slow.

Great campground, awesome amenities
The tent site were a little tight for our camper van so they pro rated us the tent price for the first night. Very clean showers and bathrooms. Washing machines and dryers available for a fee in an air conditioned room. Very friendly staff!

Accommodating management
This family run business knows what travelers need and will do whatever possible to accommodate them. I asked for a larger space as I have a rescue dog that’s reactive, and they accommodated me. And as I was getting ready to leave I checked my tires and noticed they were low. The young woman at the front desk called around and found a place where I could get air in them! Super clean bathrooms and showers, with ample washers and dryers, too. All of this and a great location. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Boulder Mt- Roundup Flat dispersed
This area is close to the summit elevation of Boulder Mt at 9550 elv. A rough rocky road leaves a scenic pull off all g hwy #12 and heads to some Aspen stands and a corral. The best sites are in the vicinity of the corral. Good cell signal, but no water, no dumpsters, however the views are great. In the fall season, the yellow aspens are spectacular.

Dixie National Forest Oak Creek Campground
Oak Creek CG
This is a small CG and limited to TT or RVs under 20 ft; however, there seems to be an overfull area just outside the CG gate that is for bigger TTs and RVs. Unclear if the CG fee applies. Vault toilets. No cell signal.

Good all season gravel road into the CG. Only 4 sites but nice tables and fire rings. One vault toilet. This is a fee CG, $20/$10 senior. No water or trash at CG but just before the main Hwy there is a pullout with potable water spigot and a small dumpster. Water was shut off Sept 28 on my visit. No cell signal though.

Capital Reef Hwy 24
This spot is up on a hill top. Plenty of spots to camp. Nice views, good fall breeze. There are 2 Porta potty on site. The only issue I didn't like was right at the entrance for the first 75 feet there were a lot of rocks sticking up out of the ground. Made it very uneven. Had my wife get out to make sure I didn't rip anything off the RV. We run a 36' Solitude. Only 7 miles to Capitol Reef visitor center.

Literally first road outside of West entrance to CRNP. It’s pretty rocky, would come during daylight to setup. Portapotties on site.
