"There is plenty of space for tent camping although they offer bus stays if you prefer. Reservations are required in advance. There are bathrooms with showers and toilets all running water."
"There’s a cute little gift shop with restrooms and cabins are available to reserve. The springs are great even on hot days, and shade is easy to find."
$15 / night
"They have RV spots, cabins and beautiful tent areas right next to the river. Also there's an ATVs rental nearby."
"Sites did not included a table, but there was plenty of room to set up outside. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
There is a fishing pond that was also home to geese, ducks and other birds."
$43 - $119 / night
"Clean RV Park, with Laundry and a small store. Paiute Trail access right from the RV Park. Each site has a tree! The park is tucked in a beautiful canyon, and surrounded by mountains!"
"Great RV park with full hookups. We were here during the off-season so it wasn’t crowded at all. This is located just before you get to the city."
$20 - $150 / night
"We hiked on a couple of the trails and discovered quite a few of the rock art pieces created by the Fremont Indians. There's an easy trail that is located adjacent to the park office."
"This is great when you need to hook up to water and electric. Also had clean restrooms and clean showers for $1.25 for 4 minutes. Coin operated."
$30 - $250 / night
"There was a fire pit made already and we had our own little area for the beach. There’s no toilets close by, it is primitive camping. There’s RV space but no hookups. Our dogs loved the area!"
"Campsites are right near one another, but they are rarely packed full so we had space between sites. Otter creek is beautiful and great for long term fishermen’s Trips."
$41 - $189 / night
"We're excited to have this campground on the Dyrt and ready for you to book, check them out and make sure to leave a review!"
"This location has clean bathrooms and showers centrally located on the grounds. So it doesn’t matter if you’re in a tent or RV, it’s a close distance for everyone."
"General: A mix of FHU (most pull-thru but a few back-in), two tent areas, and three cabins.
Site Quality: All sites are level and gravel."
"It’s all that you’d expect from an RV Park; toilets, showers, laundromat, pool, etc. The tent sites are condensed to two open areas where all tent campers must squeeze into."
"Amazing location for Bryce Canyon National Park on the road to the park entrance and shuttle into the park available."
"Stayed one night on a trip back home from Colorado, staff was great,park was clean but spaces were pretty tight and it was very crowded."
"The manager (I think) came out as I was walking around trying to find our site # and said no way would we fit in that site. So she moved us to a larger one with a patio and chairs which was nice."
$30 - $130 / night
TravelerThis location has clean bathrooms and showers centrally located on the grounds. So it doesn’t matter if you’re in a tent or RV, it’s a close distance for everyone. They are also pet friendly with trash cans and doggie bags placed around the site. Our tent area included water/electric, a picnic table, and fire pit/grill. We really enjoyed our little grass area and the quiet surroundings!
TravelerWe spent a single night in one of the tent sites, which are immediately behind the office/owner's residence. Sites have a parking space, fire ring with grill attachment, a picnic table and a gravel tent pad. They are small, and not separated from one another, so if you're looking for any level of privacy you won't find it here. On the other hand, if you like sharing space with other campers you may enjoy it. You also may experience those staying in the RV section walking through your site in order to get to the restrooms/showers.
The campground has both firewood and ice available for purchase. The remainder of the campground store is currently closed due to Covid regulations.
If you have any concerns about Covid (this is being written in September 2020), SC is not a site I would recommend. While the owners have placed signs suggesting social distancing guidelines, including masks while in the restrooms/shower area, compliance among the campers in a nearly full campground was minimal. One unmasked female camper was loudly discussing all the airports she had passed through on her way to the area, including Chicago and Denver.
Even little details were missed, like the soap in the restrooms being organic and not antibacterial.
Sand Creek is located on Hwy 24, and the road noise didn't quiet down until around 11 PM. Probably not a good choice any time for a light sleeper.
If you have a self-contained RV and are just looking for a place to park for the night, Sand Creek is likely to fit your needs. For a tent camper, its main recommendation is the ability to reserve a site in advance, as most of the other campgrounds in the area are first come, first serve.
GuideGreat little campground right off 12. Only a few site here for tents and rvs. No electricity but does have water and pot toilets (very clean). This place is surrounded with pine trees and a rushing stream. Very well maintained and only 12$ a night. Was a nice break from my dusty Utah desert camping. Picnic table, fire ring with grate, as well as a bbq grill all provided.
LegendThis is a nice little Gem. It has tent spots for $20 a night, RV hook ups and nice little cabins for $45 or a deluxe cabin for $65 a night. There is a store on site and it is still close to town. Picnic tables, and fire pits at each spot and lots of shade. This is a really nice camping spot. Close to Capitol Reef or the Boulder mountain and also lots of great jeep trails up Sand creek road. This is God's country.
TravelerGot a tent site at Ruby’s for a night. It’s all that you’d expect from an RV Park; toilets, showers, laundromat, pool, etc. The tent sites are condensed to two open areas where all tent campers must squeeze into. You’re not guaranteed a fire pit or picnic table, so there’s that. It is located right outside Bryce Canyon NP entrance, making it very convenient to come and go. Overall a good experience.
TravelerFirst of all staff is amazing, so friendly and consistent maintenance routines (not annoying though).
Sites are all gravel with a little grass patch, pull through sites could fit two side by side. All sites seemed to have a table and fire ring. The views on the north and east were stunning, North was all back in and East had some pull through spots, aim for these if you can. They also have tent and cabin sites available.
Facilities were very clean. Office/general store was nice, all the basics; food, ice, wood and souvenirs. Pool is small but well kept. There is a large park area in the center with a playground and volleyball court. Super kid friendly. Bathroom/shower were very clean, a little reminiscent of my scouting days though having plywood doors and gate hinges, does the job though.
Only bad things I can say is that it’s not walking distance to town and no adult beverages sold. Plan ahead and that should not be a problem.
I will definitely stay here again given the chance.
RangerI'm more of a fan of dispersed camping, but we wanted a spot with showers and internet for a few nights. The host was welcoming and let us choose our spot, however if you are planning to work during the days, make plans for a new spot after the official checkout.
The spots on the edge looking over the field toward the cliffs were more secluded and nice, but very windy. There were wind huts for some, and fire rings although we didn't feel comfortable using them given the dryness and the wind.
There are spots for rigs of all sizes, and some with electric hook ups, some without. Wifi included, pay laundry.
Very close to Capitol Reef. Restaurant across the street is expensive, but good if you're looking for a fancier meal.
GuideAmazing location for Bryce Canyon National Park on the road to the park entrance and shuttle into the park available. Well appointee with everything you would expect from an RV park (LP, small convenience store, laundry, etc). Walking distance to town of Bryce Canyon and the Ruby business org has all kinds of offerings in the town (country music dinner, general store, bike/rv rental).
GuideSo, take Ruby's with a grain of salt. It's historic, big, and tourist-y. We camped in the tipi (most tipis are ON the highway, so request tipi 10) that was by the lake. The tipi is probably the only secluded camping available. It was fun and pretty comfortable. It was cool at night in June, unlike all the other places we have camped in Utah. Sadly, there are so many lights at Ruby's, you can't see the stars. But, the atmosphere at Ruby's is more like being at an attraction than being outside in nature. Bathrooms are too small and there aren't enough of them to support the campground. There are shuttles to Bryce Canyon park available from Ruby's. There are shops, groceries, and anything you need at Ruby's. If you're used to nice mountain bikes, do t get your hopes up with the rentals. They are in bad shape. Also, there really are not mountain bike trails in the area. Even mountain trails that allow bikes are really horse trails and terrible to ride.
