    Capitol Reef RV Park and Glamping

    Brand new March 2025

    Everything is new. They still building the office / common room. The private bathrooms and showers are great. Everything is spotless clean. Laundry room only has 2 washers & 2 dryers. Fine now as this RV park is pretty empty. It also has several A-frame little cabins. Maybe a little dusty as they are finishing up all the gravel work. Hookups are good. Pads are level. Every spot has a picnic table & fire pit. Dog park kind of small. All dirt. Lots of areas to walk dogs. Verizon has 3 bars. WiFi is great, but not many campers here.

    A couple miles to town. Off the highway. Very quiet. Very dark at night so really nice for stargazing.

    And the mountain views are beautiful on 2 sides!

    We definitely will stay again if we in the area.

    Mystic Hot Springs

    Beautiful space with hot springs

    Beautiful location and it was a nice place to walk around. Outdoor kitchen and showers as well as community space.

    Camping was about $25/night.

    You do have to make a reservation on the website and call for details when you get here, Soaking happens in 2 hour windows and isn’t included in the camping fee. Because of where the pools are, I recommend soaking before dark.

    If you have mobility issues, be aware that there are stairs to get to the pools and the upper pools require a bit of climbing.

    The outdoor kitchen space was a nice space to use after time on the road.

    Fruita Campground — Capitol Reef National Park

    Great place to explore the park from.

    Fruita campground is just behind the Capitol Reef NP visitor's center and right at the start of the Cohab Canyon trailhead. There are toilets and running water, but no showers, and NO cell service. 2018 is the first year the campsite is by reservations. However, it does advertise a few walk-in sites. Those site we not full when I was there even the though the entrance of the campground was marked a full. Campsite are flat, clean, and well shaded. You might be on dirt or grass. Expect the sprinklers to be running in the spring and summer. Each site has a fire pit, picnic table, and charcoal grill.

    Wide Hollow Campground — Escalante State Park

    A tranquil gem with hidden facets

    It's easy to over look the gem of an area as it sits between the mega attractions of Bryce Canyon and Arches National Parks, but if you do you are depriving yourself of a real treat. This campsite nestles on the side of an inviting reservoir forming an oasis in the dry Escalante Staircase. The lake side pitches are cool and airy, the facilities are clean and modern (free wifi) and the camping fee entitles you to climb the hill behind the camp site and stumble into a jewel like land scape of a petrified forest where it is impossible to take a step without treading on what looks like rubies and sapphires. There's even a full sizes petrified tree laid out in the car park! Nearby there are waterfalls and petrographs and beavers' dams and fossil beds. It's just magic!

    Castle Rock Campground — Fremont Indian State Park

    Lots to do here

    The campground is very nice.  It is gravel with fire pits and tables.  There are also tipis that can be rented.  You are close to the Fremont Indian exhibit and trails.  There is also a nice trail that leads up into the Fishlake National Forest.

    Lots to see!  There are red rock pillars, yellow aspen and native american art.

    Thousand Lakes RV Park

    A beautiful campground!

    This is our favorite place to stay when visiting the Capitol Reef area! We have been here a few times now and keep coming back! The views of the canyons are breathtaking and very close to downtown Torrey. The sites are well maintained and groomed daily, as well as clean. The staff are very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Some of the sites along the back near the fence are a bit tight, however the pull throughs are spacious. We have also stayed in the cabins before and are cute and roomy with nice private back “yards” and front porches with chairs. The pool area is a bit small for the size of the campground and could use some upkeep, however still enjoyable. The gift shop is a must see and the best one near Capitol Reef! There are many clothes, trinkets, Native American decor, and camping supplies to choose from. There is now a grille however it is expensive. Sites are gravel with some full hookup and other partial hookup. It was a bit noisy due to the campground being full and the sites are somewhat close together and close to the cabins. The campground could use some more room as they have tried to fit a lot of sites and amenities into a “smaller” campground. The views are truly breathtaking and easy access to hiking trails, OHV trails. This is a must visit campground if you are looking to take in the beauty of the colorful Utah canyons!

    Sam Stowe Campground — Fremont Indian State Park

    Ranger Review: Travelers Autobarn Campervan at Fremont Indian State Park

    We spent a fun day exploring Cedar Breaks National Monument. However, we lost track of time, the sun was setting and we had not chosen a place to camp. 

    Campground Review of Fremont Indian State Park:

    We searched on TheDyrt app for nearby campgrounds and found Fremont Indian State Park. We drove down the mountain and around another mountain and found the campground. It was totally dark by the time that we arrived and so we quickly parked and set up our campervan to sleep. 

    A gentleman emerged from the shadows and approached our site. It seemed a little sketchy at first. However, he ended up being friendly and inquired if we’d like to join him and his friends around their campfire. After we prepared our campervan and cleaned up a bit, we dropped by the campfire. It turns out the party included some park staff and researchers. One lady was researching dark skies and one gentleman was researching astral alignment with ancient rock art. They shared about their research and showed us some of their amazing photos of the night sky. A warm way to end the day.

    The next morning, we woke up to snow on the ground and the nearby mountaintops. Having learned from our new friends that the park contained some pretty significant rock art, we decided that we should check it out. 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. There are other trails that run along the river. It is amazing that so much of the rock art was in such good condition.

    The campsites provide the basics like a parking space, picnic table, electrical & water hookup and firepit/grill. The restrooms were conveniently located close to our campsite and were clean. There are showers behind the restrooms. During the winter the showers may be closed. The campground is somewhat small, but is surrounded by beautiful mountains and bluffs. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

    Product Review of Travelers Autobarn Campervans:

    As a Ranger for The Dyrt, from time to time I am provided products to test. For this outing I was provided a Travelers Autobarn Kuga Campervan. 

    For more info: https://www.travellers-autobarnrv.com

    The best thing about traveling in a campervan is the ease, flexibility, and ability to make detours if needed. 

    We picked up our Kuga Campervan in Las Vegas. The Travelers Autobarn office is just west of the the main strip and easy to find. We arrived early in the day to begin the registration process and campervan orientation. The process was quick and easy. The Kuga Campervan is a hightop van conversion with couches, a table, two beds, propane stove, sink, water, kitchen, interior lights, fan, window shades and solar power. We also had the free living package which included kitchen pots, pans, utensils, cups and accessories. It also included sleeping bags, sheets, pillows and towels. The package pretty much made it super easy to get in the van and go. 

    The Travelers Autobarn staff member was super friendly and provided an orientation of the basic operation of the campervan. The campervan drives like a normal van, but learning about the camper functions was helpful. 

    We had charted a route around Utah and Arizona visiting a number of towns, parks, roadside attractions and hot springs. The day that we started a weather system passed through which made the temperatures drop in the northern part of our route. We simply flipped our route to avoid the cold weather and traveled the southern route first. By the time that we circled north the weather had warmed up and it was perfect weather for exploring. Traveling in a campervan made it super easy to be flexible with our route and schedule. 

    On our seven day trip we visited Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, Horseshoe Bend National Monument. Monument Valley National Park, Arches National Park, Mystic Hotsprings, Zion National Park, Cedar Breaks National Monument, Meadow Hotsprings, Valley of Fire State Park and Fremont Indian State Park. 

    If we were not traveling in a campervan it is unlikely that we would have had the flexibility to camp anytime and anywhere. We would have never found and stayed at Fremont Indian State Park. It ended up being a gem of a park and a great overall experience. This campervan camping adventure opened up my mind to new opportunities and travels. So much fun!

    Sand Creek RV, Cabins, Tents

    Nice spot for an RV park

    I'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.


Guide to Fremont

Capitol Reef RV Park and Glamping sits approximately two miles from town in a quiet area with mountain views on two sides. Located near Teasdale, Utah, this camping area provides easy access to Capitol Reef National Park while maintaining distance from highway noise. The A-frame cabins include private bathrooms and full hookups. Sites feature picnic tables and fire pits, and visitors can enjoy amenities such as a small dog park and WiFi connectivity.

What to do

Fruit picking in historic orchards: At Fruita Campground, campers can enjoy seasonal fruit harvesting from the historic orchards. "This campground offers absolutely beautiful surroundings! Our tent is currently surrounded by red rock structures on 3 sides, along with a horse stable, and a fruit orchard. This venue is surreal," notes Joseph G.

Explore slot canyons: The area surrounding Capitol Reef provides access to numerous slot canyons for adventurous hikers. "We did escape the heat by hiking Bell Canyon just a short drive north of the campground. The slot canyon provided relief from the heat and some great hiking," shares Troy L. from Goblin Valley State Park Campground.

Dark sky stargazing: The minimal light pollution creates exceptional stargazing opportunities. "The night sky was something I've never seen, so unreal!" reports Paige J. who visited Goblin Valley State Park Campground. The dark skies showcase billions of stars against the backdrop of desert landscapes.

What campers like

Convenient location: Campers appreciate proximity to Capitol Reef National Park without sacrificing quiet. "We stayed in loop C and there was plenty of shade to stay cool. There were also lots of people cooling off in the river that runs through the campground. There were abundant mule deer that walked through the campsite," writes Hattie R. about Fruita Campground.

Clean facilities: Well-maintained restrooms and shower facilities rank high with visitors. "The bathrooms are spotless! The showers are equally as clean. There are no bad views here! The hiking and biking trails are right there," notes Betzy G. about the amenities at Goblin Valley State Park.

Diverse accommodation options: The region offers everything from tent sites to cabins to glamping experiences. "We stayed in an old bus turned into cute little camp spot. Stayed here in the dead of winter and was very comfy and cozy. Bus had heated blankets and was thoughtfully set up," reports Leigh-Anne H. about her experience at Mystic Hot Springs.

What you should know

Weather preparedness: The area experiences extreme temperature variations. "It is higher elevation so make sure you bring your coat. We stay up here quite often during the elk hunt and it is quite busy in the fall but there is still plenty of room," advises Brad B. about Elkhorn Recreation Site.

Reservation recommendations: Many popular campsites fill quickly during peak season. "Only 24 sites makes this one of the hardest campgrounds in Utah to book. If you're lucky enough to get in then you are going to love Goblin Valley," shares Terry K.

Road conditions: Access roads to some campgrounds may require careful navigation. "The road getting up to the camp ground is dirt and sometimes can have ruts and is bumpy but has really good access and is well maintained," notes Brad B. about the Elkhorn Recreation Site.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly activities: Many campgrounds offer dedicated spaces for children. "The small swimming pool was loved by the kids. The grassy park area was nice," reports Scott O. about his stay at Thousand Lakes RV Park.

Wildlife viewing opportunities: Children enjoy observing local wildlife in natural settings. "I love going and seeing the big deer in the campground and park. Lots of great hikes close and lots of things to do," shares Brad B. about Fruita Campground.

Wind protection consideration: Some areas experience significant wind. "There are wooden shelters for tent spots to mitigate the wind but this would still make me nervous if I were in a tent!" cautions Kayleigh T. about her stay at Sand Creek RV, Cabins, Tents.

Tips from RVers

Site selection strategy: Choose sites that maximize views while considering exposure. "Very close to Capitol Reef National Park, this is a popular site for many park goers. Facilities are very well kept and pleasantly clean," notes Angela G. about Wonderland RV Park.

Electrical reliability: Some parks experience power fluctuations during peak usage. "We stayed in May 2023 and we were given a site all the way to the back. The view was pretty, the site was level, but when all the large RVs returned for the night, our electricity browned out and we couldn't run our AC," warns Pam R. about Thousand Lakes RV Park.

Site spacing awareness: RVers should note proximity to neighboring sites. "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," reports Matthew S. about Thousand Lakes RV Park.
