Top 10+ Campgrounds near Lake Powell, UT

The wind here is sort of the only complaint, but it has been completely manageable. I don't doubt it could get bad, but we had one or two bouts of an hour or less over the course of a few days. So it was pretty pleasant.

If you like cows.. well you're in luck. They will come visit. You have to "cow resistant" your space, they are curious and will poke around if you give them reason. If you have a larger rig they will seek you out for shade. At the far end of the main "landing" near the corrals is where they are watered. So if you are over there.. you are in cow country.

On the other hand.. they will sing you awake. This might sound weird, but if feels like the cows enjoy their echos. And they echo quite a bit against the rock face. I've taken to calling it the horns of mooidor. It will wake you up.

Otherwise, some really awesome views, big sky, great photo ops, cool hikes, and a little technical offroading/biking to be had.

Speaking of offroading, if the main landing is full, there are two roads leading off. One heads towards 2 more cleared spaces that you can see right away, and the gate to the ranchers land. The other goes down off the landing to a smaller site that is directly in the cows water path. After that site there is a sandpit in the road and a rock shelf leading up to the continuation of the trail.. if you aren't prepared to air down and do some slightly technical driving.. don't go in there. Please.

This location seems to be past the fence onto the local ranchers property. I spoke to the ranchers, or a hand and they said they do not care, feel free to camp, just don't block their corral.

Views were amazing at this campground. There’s also so much to do, fruit picking, hiking, swimming, fishing. Didn’t bring our dogs but there was a more calm part of the river that dogs can swim. Definitely stinky by the bathrooms…campsite are super close together.

Pretty cool beach/camp. Plenty of toilets and trash cans are by the entrance/exit. A little windy because it’s exposed but very calm and quiet otherwise. A little scary with the sand situation but if you stay back from the water you will be fine.

Site is everything you need except water. There’s about 20 sites now some able to fit RVs/trailers, some for only vans and cars. Fire pit and picnic table for each site. Clean

L’endroit est magnifique! Nous sommes arrivés à une heure tardive et cela n’a pas posé de problème. A l’accueil, une feuille indique les places vacantes pour la soirée, il suffit d’indiquer son nom sur la place que l’on a choisi et de venir régler le lendemain matin.

This is such a cool campsite! An absolute must in the area! There are no assigned spots so just park where you want. Sand gets deeper to the right so we stayed left on the middle bank. The views are insane! No hookups but compost toilets, a dump and water available, though we didn’t use it. We had no issue finding a good spot at 7pm on Easter Sunday.

Stayed for 2 nights with our 25’ trailer. Dirt road was fine! No one else was there! So amazing to have a cup of coffee and view the beautiful landscape. Short driving distance to Buckskin Canyon.
No problem with our Verizon phones.

Lots of room for any and all rigs. There are 3 places to find parking. One is at the top near the gate, second (down the hard pack road straight ahead from the gate) leads to a ledge with parking along it about 200 ft from the shoreline. If you don’t have 4wd I’d suggest camping there. Down by the beach, lots of fifth wheels and 4wd campers. Watched a class A get stuck on their way back up from the shoreline. Trash receptacles here and pit toilets. April is a great time to visit.

Random dirt turnoff road but quiet and peaceful and big enough space and turnaround for big rvs. I tent camped a ways up with my Silverado. Wide open tho with no amenities. Also grazing land so watch out for cow pattys. Had decent cell service with Verizon here and nearby page and Colorado river are beautiful!

Lske Powell is cold so not slot of boaters etc Summer should be crazy

Sites are loose rock but very manageable

Wide open area with just a few spots to choose from. Sporadic cell service. No amenities. Quiet. Cows roaming the area, a couple horses were in the corral.

While our specific campsite wasn't the best (just a little pull off on the campground loop road), and while most sites are cramped together... the bathroom and shower facilities are the best! No cell service.

Large campground with great facilities. We got here late on a road trip and hadn't made a reservation but were advised to pick a spot that wasn't taken or reserved and just register in the morning. Which is what we did. It ended up being a great spot with amazing views of the lake and a perfect base to see everything that Page had to offer. We ended up staying 2 nights. Dry camping was $30 a night. I could see us staying here again for a longer visit to Page.

The road is quite horrendous, but the camping is great. Good cell service. Dumpsters near the entrance.

First come first serve. $26/night. Cleanest bathrooms I’ve ever seen. Plumbing with sinks. Not to be missed is Cathedral wash hike. Nearby historical riverfront hike at the boat launch.

We reached quite late at nigth, could not find the spots for camping, luckily there was a car who entered and we followed them until we saw other RVs and Trailers.

First come first serve, choose your own spot

Restrooms are quite clean.

Sunrise was pretty

Great spot along the river. Access is easy.
