Many people enjoy the solitude and primitive experience of camping away from developed campgrounds and other campers. Dispersed camping is the term used for camping anywhere in the National Forest OUTSIDE of a developed campground. In some popular dispersed camping areas, camping is limited to designated sites only. Dispersed camping is free, therefore no services; such as trash removal, and little or no facilities; such as tables and fire pits, are provided.
There are extra responsibilities and skills that are necessary for dispersed camping. It is your responsibility to know these before you go camping. Camping rules and regulations apply to make your experience safe, and to keep the natural resources scenic and unspoiled for other campers.
Rules for Dispersed Camping Motorized vehicle use for the purpose of dispersed camping is only allowed 150 feet from any designated route to limit resource damage. Use existing campsites. Groups of over 75 people, who wish to use the forest, need to obtain a special use permit. There is no fee and permits can be obtained at the nearest Forest Service Office. You need to be self-contained. No amenities are provided; such as water, restrooms or trash cans. You may camp in a dispersed area for up to 16 days. After 16 days, you must move at least 10 miles for camping in another dispersed area. Please place your campsite at least 200 feet from any stream or other water source. Pack it in, pack it out. Inspect your campsite and rest areas for trash or spilled foods. Pack out all trash, leftover food, and litter. Follow Leave No Trace principals. Contact a local Forest Service office to see if any fire restrictions are in place.

Lots of level spots great view
Right off of Hwy 12. If you take the first left turn off the main road, there are some awesome spots with great views. Nice level spots with fire pits. Roads are decent. Very quiet first week in Sept.
There’s a gas station 2 miles down the road. Very close to Bryce Canyon. Great free camping spot.
Only the group campsite has Lakeview. There is a picnic site beside the lake. The campsites are generous and just regravelled. There are bear boxes. There seems to be water spigots near each site. Each site has a fire rain, a barbecue box, and a camp table. There is LTE cellular service on AT&T. There's a fish cleaning site. It's up at about $9,500 ft. As of September 8th. The water has been turned off and there are no other campers here. A lot of the campsites have a tent level site included.
Easy access off of the main road that goes into Bryce Canyon NP. I pulled in on a Saturday (after labor day) and most of the spots were open. Site 17 had good shade and open areas for solar panels. Other sites were shaded by trees.
Weather was high 70s and mid 40s. Minimal bugs. Saw some deer running around in the mornings.
This is one of only 2 campground in Bryce Canyon NP. It is to be a first come first serve but now during the busy season reservations are required. North campground is not as quiet and is busier than Sunset campground. Direct access to biking and hiking trails. There is also a shuttle stop right at the entrance of the campground which allows you to leave your car behind while you visit the park. Except for loop A, the driveway surface for most sites is uneven, something to consider if you have a camper van. I camped in B47, B53 and B54 and the sites were even. Vans can reserve in both the RV and tent section. Another perk of using a camper van.

Right on the highway, very noisy. Showers are listed as an amenity, but they charge $8. That’s not an amenity. There is no wifi in campground.
Super easy to find and clearly marked sites. The road is a bit bumpy, but we were fine taking our time in our camper van. Lots of space between sites. The trees are gorgeous. & it’s super close to the entrance of Bryce Canyon National Park. Highly recommend this spot!
Perfect level spot with a small rock fire ring & great sunrise & sunset views. On BLM land. T-Mobile cell service
Stayed a couple of nights ago, lots of sites all with fire rings. Easy turn off right near Capitol Reef NP which is wicked convenient. There are no facilities here so keep that in mind. Was extremely windy and had intermittent rain/thunderstorms passing through (that don’t show up on weather/radar) so something to consider during this season if you’re tenting it like us. The ground is also majorly rock so staking tents for the wind is very difficult. All that being said the views are amazing & hearing coyotes off in the distance gave some cool ambiance
Stayed for 2 nights in July. Plenty of room. Lots of fire pits. The Verizon signal is great. Will definitely stay again
Great spot for a stay overnight! Although there isn’t water, there is a clean outhouse to use.
We loved the spot we had which was equipped with a picnic table and fire ring (all sites have this).
The views from being so high up are great. That being said the wind can get a little crazy at night so roll up those awnings before bed.
Road in is a little bumpy (we came from Highway 72) but it was a beautiful drive.
We spent 3 nights here right along the reservoir and it was great. Although it was “busy” there was plenty of space between us an our neighbours.
We rock a rooftop tent so it was easy to level. Bugs were minimal during the day. Mosquitos ramp up at night but they didn’t seem to want anything to do with us.
Saw plenty of people fishing during the day.
There are washrooms nearby but they aren’t super close to all camping areas.
Designated spots between trees, only trees. 15 mins drive to Bryce visitor centre. Very quiet, except for some buggies coming by over the road. Exceptionally large spots, levelled, sand/ stone, with a firepit made of stones. The road is bumpy, but good enough for our 30 ft RV. Very dusty though ( the spots also)
Kids loved strolling in the forest and the deers coming by.
This nice little campground is located between Minersville reservoir and the Green County fairgrounds, just west of Beaver Utah, on state road 21. It is small and access is somewhat tight, but we were able to get our 32-foot C-Class in easily enough and campsite 1 accommodated us beautifully.
Pros: There is a picnic table in a concrete floored, covered patio with a trash can and BBQ grills which is setting within a few feet of a small running stream. Beautiful and quiet for just $12.00 a night.
Cons: Lots of very tiny gnats that were so small they got through our window screens, so we had to minimize our external lighting, and close the windows and shades after dark.
I've stayed here several times already. It's $23 per night for a single. $2.50 for 8min shower, plenty of time. The camp host is nice and good at keeping up with things. It was busier in March and fairly dead in July, I love it. Would definitely stay here again. There are a couple of trails close by and practically 20min from Bryce Canyon.
This spot is incredible. Airstreams, pull in spots, cabins. AMAZING year round outdoor heater showers, “drive in” movies every night. My kids loved it, I loved it. Great homemade, great for zero days. Highly recommend.
It’s been very difficult in our July Utah trip to find a place where we can comfortably sleep in the back of our jeep but the breeze in this area was perfection. The view is to die for. Would 1000000 percent recommend this if you have an off road vehicle!
Nice check in experience. Friendly staff was help for directing us to some items in the store and filling propane. There are 2 sections of the park. Lot of sites located under the trees (like we had), another area is more out in the open which looked to be newer and great for big rigs. The park shuttle picks up right in front. There is also bike paths that you can ride to the park. The bike path also heads the other way for miles! We will return here if ever this way again.
When our original dispersed camping spot didn’t work out we drove down the road and found this little gem, right outside the entrance to Bruce Canyon National Park. There are a bunch of designated USFS camping spots. They’re level-ish, fire rings, and pretty easy to get to. We have a 1992 (renovated!) motorhome and we got to spot 17 no problem. We could have gone to 17-19, but then the road got to rough for our old girl. Lots of quads and sideXsides riding on the dirt road, kicking up dust till about 8:30PM but was not a big deal. Solid free camping right near the park!

Great location , a good amount of traffic but we had a fire and a good view. Not much to complain about . Will be back
Beautiful campground Quiet and lots of shade Our site had a stream running by it
Open Fields yet lots of privacy and shade. Beautiful spots but primitive. No garbage disposal, water, electricity, bathrooms, showers, etc. Pack it in and pack it out!
10 miles on a fairly well maintained Gravel Road to locate three or four campsites that accommodate RVs. No water, electricity, garbage disposal, etc. Some sites have fire rings. I made my own spot by moving some dead wood and created my own fire pit with available stones and tons of available dry firewood. Do not try to go past the Gated area as that is extremely rough and only meant for four wheelers.
We usually do dispersed to avoid other humans and their generators, lights, and noise, but Kodachrome only allows generator use from noon to 4, quiet hours are observed and enforced, and the sites in Bryce View are really well spaced out from each other. Most also have shade. It's like dispersed camping, but with toilets and water!
Nice shady stay near Bryce. Lots of bugs, nothing biting but buzzing around your face all night. Also lots of animal bones around the site. Other than that it was very quiet and nice besides the occasional side by side
