"We pulled up to a spot where we could use the bunkhouse porch. The views from this ranch are amazing. The bathhouse was really cool—very creative. In fact, everything about this place is creative."

"We prefer boondocking spots because they typically have more space between campsites, and this is true in Kodachrome. Bryce View Campground is down a short dirt road and most sites are pull-throughs."

GuideWe stayed in the Bryce View campground which has no hookups. We prefer boondocking spots because they typically have more space between campsites, and this is true in Kodachrome. Bryce View Campground is down a short dirt road and most sites are pull-throughs. If you need to use a generator, they are only allowed between the hours of 12pm to 4pm. Bryce View had vaulted toilets, water faucets, and a large trash bin. All sites had beautiful views but 52 and 56 appear to have the best. Our site was level and from what we could see most the other sites were equally level. Table and fire pits are available at all the sites. The max trailer length allowed is 20ft. Our trailer is 20ft and we had no issues maneuvering. The campground is quite and well maintained. If you prefer hookups the Basin Campground has what you are looking for. However, the sites are much closer together. Be aware when we used the Dump site it was awfully close to some of the Basin Campsites. The RV dump site has two stations and has potable and non-potable water. Showers and laundry facility are also available.
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.
GuideThe reception staff is welcoming and accommodating. Large sites (gently sloped) with picnic table. It's spacious and quiet. Clean pool to cool off in. 3 large modern units for bathrooms, showers (soaps, shampoo and conditioner provided) and washer/dryer. Several washer/dryers need to be fixed but we managed to do our laundry without too much wait at a low cost. Beautiful glamping stay!
LegendKodachrome Basin SP has two separate campgrounds: Bryce View and Basin, a couple miles apart. This review only addresses Bryce View (sites 46-56). The park also has Oasis and Arch Group Sites and bunkhouses.
Why should you camp here? Panorama Point alone is worth the trip with its 360 degrees view, and Shakespeare Arch/Sentinel Spire are something different. You may see a black-tailed jackrabbit in the campground or on the hike to Shakespeare Arch.
Be aware of the following if you book a site at Bryce View:
There are vault toilets which I did not expect at this state campground. I guess you get flush toilets at Basin, and Oasis definitely has them.
Showers are a couple miles away at Oasis.
Bryce View looks a like a free BLM camping area tucked away in the red dirt until you see the numbered sites with picnic tables and fire rings, vault toilets, potable water and a trash dumpster.
Your cell phone will not work in this area. If you're desperate for service, Verizon's network is available at Panorama Point, a stop on the Panorama Trail.
It's still a good place to camp:
VERY quiet! Generators may only be run between noon and 4 pm. That's a great rule because most people are exploring the park at that time.
Sites are large and the views are beautiful.
All sites except 53 have long pull through parking areas which easily accommodate a vehicle and RV. When we were there, 9 sites were occupied the first night and all were occupied by tents except ours.
Behind sites 51, 52, 55 and 56 are views of Chimney Rock and the Shakespeare Arch/Sentinel Spire area.
Showers are in good shape; each one has a door and a dressing area with a bench.
A laundromat appropriately named Red Dirt is near the bunkhouses on the way to the Oasis Group Site and Basin Campground.
All I know about the other campground is that 14 sites have power and there are two non-reservation sites called A and B.
ScoutWe 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!
GuideWe had a tentsite at Bryce View Campground in Kodachrome Basin State Park and it was wonderful! The sites are set spaciously apart. We had a tent but all of those sites had a drive through option. Picnic tables and toilet facilities close by. Many sites had lovely views and there were trees at every site to provide shade and privacy. Outside of Bryce National Park but within 20 minutes of the park. Great campground!
GuideWe spent 3 nights here in June, 2023. They told us the place had just opening in February of the same year. So it's very new, and it shows. Everything was immaculate. It's in a nice location, with attractive cliffs all around, and it's actually pretty close to Antelope Canyon and very close to Page itself. As you'd expect from a place so new, the power, water & sewer were all top notch. The main check in building (with a little shop) was pretty upscale. And the bathhouses were great too (with caveat, coming later). You get a full bathroom to yourself; a lockable room with shower, sink with large counter, toilet, shampoo/conditioner and plenty of space overall. They pipe in music so that sounds overall are muffled. They have laundry facilities as well, but we didn't use those.
All in all, sounds like a 5 star experience, yes? Well, a few things bothered me for the future of this place:
1) The sites, planted with still very young trees, are mostly ornamental rock. And growing everywhere through this rock are tumbleweeds. I live in NM, and know how pernicious these can be. Yet no effort appeared to be underway to nip them in the bud. These will soon be unattractive nuisances. And will make the sites seem much less worth the rather high price of camping here (we paid $85 per night).
2) The restrooms, although lovely, were CHRONICALLY out of toilet paper and paper towels. We learned to bring our own. One morning, I went in and could have had access to any of the 7 or 8 rooms. NONE had TP or paper towels. Not one. This happened consistently during our visit. They need to solve that, or their noteworthy bathrooms will become an annoyance.
3) Also, note that the sites are up on curbs. We grounded out our hitch several times when pulling in or out. I can't help but feel the sites could have been built at more like ground level, and not up on curbs.
Still, a very nice stay.
GuideWe got a nice spot with trees shade and privacy. Nice table and fire pit. Trails nearby, beauty all around. Nice restrooms. It was buggy and unusually hot when we were there.
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.
