"Sites were typical National Park, small and close together but well positioned. We had close access to a modern restroom that was clean and well maintained. "
"Watchman is conveniently located within walking distance of the Zion National Park south entrance. The camp sites are shaded with trees and red gravel/sand ground structure."
"Close to the road but not too noisy. It's about 45 minutes to the Zion visitor center. Gas stations & restaurant close by."
"Decent spot right off the highway. Lots of places to pull out off of the main dirt road. Camping next to the river keeps the sound of the near by highway almost un-noticeable."
$40 - $54 / night
"Also a nice little restaurant within walking distance (right across the street)."
"Pool, laundry, snacks and not to mention walking distance to everything in town. There is a nice river running behind the camp ground"
"Site was easy to find and a great stop right outside of eastern entrance to Zion. Was close to road but traffic noise was minimal and not too distracting."
"About 15 minute drive outside of east entrance to Zion National Park. Accessibility was good (old broken up paved road that turns to gravel so no 4x4 needed). Some road noise."
$35 - $50 / night
"Perfect location just a short walk away from the visitors center where you catch the shuttle into the park, or exit to catch the shuttle to Springdale. Clean bathrooms. No shade at site 125."
"Located right inside of the National Park area just a few hundred yards from the visitor center this place is the hardest reservation to get at Zion because it is always filling up."
"The campsite was calm and easy to drive into. Zion and Bryce are both close by too."
"There is a bit of garbage and stuff dumped over the edges if you look for it. No odour no flies. Nice breeze. Felt safe. Quiet as its buffered from the highway."
$28 - $160 / night
"Clean restrooms, water on taps, close to Duck Creek Reservoir. Friendly hosts & very affordable. Close to many hiking trails. Love Utah's Forest Service Campgrounds!"
"Great Camping if you can get away from all the tourist and their off road toys. Lots of trails to ride, if that's your thing."
"Lovely spot with a river running along one side, but only people with river spots have access to it! Conveniently within the nice town of Springdale and very close to park entrance."
"The location is definitely a highlight, it’s just a short walk to the park entrance, which made getting in and out of Zion really convenient. "
"Horses just feet away from you. The best part about this location is that it’s between Bryce Canyon and Zion National Parks. FREE hot showers and Amazing host."
"There is a stream and 2 mile hiking trail located in the camp. The location is perfectly centered between zion and Bryce. Bathrooms look like they belong in a church. The only downside is the price."
"The campground is located away from the resort features which we appreciated, so that is was a little more of an authentic camping experience."
"We were just looking for a place to sleep, checked out the first camping outside of Zion east entrance and decided to check out the next closest one according to info from the Zion ranger."
ScoutGood campground, clean bathrooms. Not a lot of shadow.
ScoutWe recently stayed at Zion Canyon Campground and had a mixed experience. The location is definitely a highlight, it’s just a short walk to the park entrance, which made getting in and out of Zion really convenient.
That said, the campground was very full, and the campsites are packed in pretty tightly. Some are extremely close to each other, so don’t expect much privacy. It was also pretty loud during the day with lots of kids running around, which might be something to consider if you're looking for a quieter stay. On the positive side, the campground provides two shower coins per night, which was a nice touch, and pets are allowed.
The onsite shop was well-stocked with fair prices, and the check-in process was quick and easy. Our site had full hookups including water, electricity, and sewer, though the sewer connection at our particular site was placed a bit far away, which made it a little inconvenient.
Overall, it’s a solid option if you want to be as close to the park as possible and don’t mind a busier campground environment. The price is relatively high for what you get, but the location may make it worth it for some.
TravelerBeautiful spot in a small canyon. There are many spots along the black top road"Kolob Ter Rd, out of Virgin, and many were already taken as it was Sunday of memorial Day weekend. The dirt road off the black top to the campsite is rough, we have a pickup with slide-in camper, I wouldn't take anything bigger on this road.
ScoutAwesome RV Park just off I15. Park is great for Vets as paying cash will get you a night for $30. I arrived to spend 1 night but ended up spending 4 as it gave me the time to restock/refresh as I am an avid boonedocker. 6 miles from Cedar City to all that you will need. Lots of trails to hike or bike. Showers, laundry and restrooms available and very clean!! I will definitely be staying here again!
GuideLots of spots, private, 5 min fr om the main road but quiet. The spots have good tree coverage. Spotty cell phone signal (TMobile).
ScoutVery 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
ScoutThis place was beautiful and peaceful during the day, but like something out of a movie night fell and that's when there was a major incident. I arrived and set up my camp, but always sleep in my car the first night just in case. Thank god I did, because I heard some weird noises and footsteps come up to my driver side door. Then they went around my car, and I laid on my car horn twice. Grabbed my lantern and pepper gel and sat upright. Waited a few seconds ( to hear where to aim if need be) and heard a man's heavy breathing a foot away from my ear by the window. Floored it out and left. Figured out later the weird noises was the man grabbing a knife, and flicking it out. It was close enough that my car knocked it out of his hand down into the divet where my wipers go.
Even had a lady who was solo camping there for three weeks walk over to introduce herself and tell me how safe it was here and that I was gonna have a great time sleeping out here.
So, unless you wanna find yourself in a news article or as the main character of a horror movie, I would camp elsewhere. Too bad the park is beautiful! It's in bear country. I would have preferred to tell you a bear encounter story.
GuideHighly recommended. Loads of space. Reasonable Porta potties. Gorgeous sunsets over Zion. And higher than Under Canvas just down the road.
