ScoutThis is a Great place! I love that they are pet friendly and not breed restrictive. I have a pit mix (who's just a big ole teddy bear) and you know how that can often make travel and lodging difficult. I love that he is welcome here. They have a big grassy dog park for him to run and play in, he loves running in the sprinklers! Its two sided and completely fenced in so large and small breeds can have their own safe space to play in. I really appreciate the picnic benches to sit on for the parents. For me this is a huge benefit and I recommend this park for any pet owner!
GuideOne of the most beautiful disbursed campgrounds we've seen, plenty of space, quiet, privacy and with stunning 360 views. Highly recommend this place. We felt super safe here too.
HOWEVER, the main access road (second dirt road on the left off the broken paved road) to most of the places for camping is currently, May 8, 2023, under a few feet of water and impassable except for serious 4-wheelers.
There are a limited number of spaces right off the broken paved road though. We lucked out and snagged a place right off the broken paved road at the second dirt road on the left, further down not passable.
The broken paved road (BLM Road 71) is on the left about 5 miles from Kanab right off highway 9 going towards Zion NP. It’s easy to miss so keep an eye out as it’s unmarked.
The broken paved road is easily accessible by pretty much all vehicles. We had no problem with our 27 foot Class A and our friend’s 24 foot Class C. Just go slow and you won’t have a problem.
Beautiful, beautiful place!
ScoutWe've stayed here probably four times previously and have always had a wonderful experience. Sites are long and wide, gravel. There's a pool which looks very nice, but we've never used it. Bathrooms are immaculate, some of the nicest we've ever used at a campground. There's also a playground and a dog park. Lots of good shopping and restaurants in Kanab. We will definitely be back!
ScoutThis is one of our favorite spots to camp in Utah. It's fabulously close to Bryce Canyon NP and a reasonable distance from Zion NP and Grand Staircase Escalante. Kodachrome is also a good destination in itself. Campsites are surrounded on three sides by beautiful cliffs and mountains and there are plenty of trails to hike and explore. We'll be back here again!
ScoutDark Sky Campground provides a unique camping experience from the start of your stay to the end. The owners have thought each detail through. You are welcomed by a host that is friendly and helpful. Your camping spot is private and clean with wonderful views of Utah. The campground amenities, like the laundry and the market, work on the honor system. The dog park worked well for us and gave our large dogs an opportunity to stretch their legs. Every Thursday evening the owners host a dinner for the campers. We enjoyed pizza and ice cream with a choice of beverages during our stay. The owners were readily available during the dinner and were eager to hear about your favorite experiences and gave great recommendations for more positive experiences to come. We are already thinking about another camping trip to Utah so that we can stay at Dark Sky again!
ScoutDirectly on the boulevard ,small but quaint with a pool .owner is nice !can walk to restaurants and downtown .dog friendly great dog park. Be back in September.
LegendThis KOA is located about ten minutes outside of St George and right off the I-15 freeway. It was all the amenities that your typical KOA has; dog park, hookups, cabins, and store. The best part of this KOA is its proximity to Red Cliffs National Conservation Area which is about a mile away. This National Conservation Area is surrounded by towering red cliffs that have miles of hiking trails through them. It's a great place to spend the day exploring.
The only downside is the traffic noise on the I-15 at night. But if you are in your RV or van you will hardly notice it. This is a good campground for any trip to Zion or the surrounding area.
Cell Service: Good
