One bonus: short off-road drive to our spot"

TravelerKodachrome basin state park is the place to be if u wanna camp in utah. Where oh where do I begin?! First off, we stayed in BRYCE VIEW campground, #55. This campground is one of a few campgrounds in KBSP. No hookups, but each site has a table and firepit. Pit toilets are available. The thing I like about Bryce view is that its more primitive than the oasis campground, but still close by. The only issue we had at our site was fire ants. Wear closed toed shoes; i got bit and the pain lasted approximately 2 hours. If u have kids, bikes or both- DONT MISS OUT ON THE TRAILS! The grand parade trail leads into 2 box canyons that allow for hours of hide and seek play, kids and adults alike. We spent a couple hours on this trail just exploring the canyons. There is a disk golf course that backs up to BV campground. Also theres a LAUNDRY MAT near the main entrance which was a huge life saver. I loved our site and would stay there again in a heartbeat.
LegendThis small equestrian cg has only 4 large back in spots. Vault toilet but no garbage or potable water. Livestock water in season, but not potable to drink for humans.. Although this is noted as an equestrian site, the Dixie NF website notes that anyone can camp here, no horse required. In season this site is managed by a consessioner. Sites are $14 or $7.00 senior pass. Location is midway between FS Red Canyon recreation area and entrance to Bryce NP. Cell service is very good (2-3 bars lte) on ATT, Verizon and TMobile.
RangerBLM sites along Henrieville Creek within the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. Very close to Bryce Canyon National Park.
LegendIt feels almost like a hidden secret that I shouldn't divulge, but the lovely owners of this special little spot deserve to have a light shown on their little slice of heaven in Southern Utah.
In an area rich with outdoor tourist attractions (Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon all within 90 minutes), it's hard to find a campsite that doesn't feel like a shoulder-to-shoulder Disney experience. Ethel's Hideout is laid out such that you never feel like you're crowded in by neighbors. This is a true cowboy camping experience in cowboy country.
The campground is surrounded by public lands in every direction with views of incredible rock formations and the breath-taking Southern Utah landscape. If you're lucky, you can watch the cowboys moving cattle across the range. We got lucky enough to see this during our stay.
There's no shortage of things to do nearby. Just ask the owners for some tips on where to go to find an adventure! As an insider tip, I found the nearby reservoir in Kanab to be the perfect spot for a morning jaunt.
While they do offer horse stalls for travelers with horses, the campground is set-up for RVs and tents to maximize views and strikes the perfect balance of amenities with a boondocking-style experience. If you're looking for concrete pads and lines of RVs, this isn't the spot for you. But if you're hoping to find a truly special camping experience coupled with some light amenities, give Ethel's a visit. We love it here.
Legend**IMPORTANT** Stays at this private ranch are BY RESERVATION only and for people with horses or who've booked a guided trail ride with the ranch**
We booked a private guided horseback ride with the ranch and stayed here in our trailer for five days. Our stay was incredible: quiet, peaceful, and amidst the backdrop of beautiful Utah BLM land. Our guided 2-hour ride in the nearby slot canyon was fantastic. I HIGHLY recommend riding with the amazing team at the ranch.
We had 30 amp electric and water hookups, though some sites are just electric. The dump site may or may not be in service, ask before booking.
The restrooms and showers onsite are immaculate. Very clean, new, and well designed.
*Again, this is a private ranch first, not an RV campground. Stays here require a reservation. The owner dislikes people just driving onto the property. Call ahead.
LegendSomething for everyone with this resort campground! We were interested in it for its full hook-up RV area, but you can rent or buy cabins, ride horses, rent boats, off-road vehicles, go fishing, hiking, exporing, or just relax and enjoy the views of Panguitch Lake. There is even an area for special events, such as weddings, family reunions, or parties. Great place to visit if you don't mind spending the money.
TravelerThe road is overgrown and eroded and you’d need a high clearance vehicle to negotiate it. I wouldn’t go there during rainy weather-the road will turn to mud and the site is at the same level as the river.
On the positive, the site is only a short distance away from the highway and you’ll be camping by a beautiful white cliff, among fragrant plantation. It’s also good stopover between Bryce Canyon and Escalante.
GuideWe stayed two nights. There are tons of spots in the area spacious or small depending on your needs. It's perfect to visit Bryce Canyon, Red Rock Canyon or enjoy just your stay in a Pine Forest surrounded by Mountains. There are many ATV trails and bycicle trails, you can do horse back riding or hiking in the vicinity. The temperature is even in the summer cool because of a elevation of 7700 ft. There is a vault Toilet across the Hyw for a "big business". The spots are accessible even with a car. Big rigs would have no problem.
RangerOne of our favorite Utah State Parks. Great walking/hiking trails! We stayed at a site in front of the large group site and it was great until a large group came. Most of the other sites were awesome.
We stayed in the Basin campground with full hookups.
