"This campground is great for exploring Zion National Park. Each campsite has a fire pit and picnic table. There are restrooms with running water and electricity."
"This is by far on of my favorite National Parks. The campground is fairly large (100 + spots) but very hard to secure a spot, make sure to book ahead of time!"
$40 - $54 / night
"Cabin rental or camper sites available outside the park trail head and is a great alternative if the NP is full."
"Fire red sunsets, completely different setting from where I was use too and one of the tallest trail hikes and rock climb I have been on, seems that throughout the day the settings always change!"
"The campground is not located inside Zion park but it’s so close that you can easily walk to the park entrance (10-15 walk with kids)."
"Showers, ice, wood for sale. Creek or small river for swimming. Hot in summer. Beautiful canyon. Everyone in bed by 10pm. Everyone returns back to their sites by 5-6pm from Zion Park."
"Lovely tent campsite with a picnic table and fire ring. Excellent shower room and restroom with laundry. Full service resort including restaurant on grounds."
"We were just looking for a place to sleep, checked out the first camping outside of Zion east entrance and decided to check out the next closest one according to info from the Zion ranger."
"Sites are clean and each have a fire pit, table and most have a tree. There is a stream and 2 mile hiking trail located in the camp. The location is perfectly centered between zion and Bryce."
"There’s a laundry mat on site and a small playground and dog park. The best RV spots with full hook ups was 39-43. Partial hook ups 12-14. We’ll definitely be back!"
"Got the key and remote for the tv then head to the cabin that was around the way from the office/pool area. Sheets was provided for the queen bed but not the bunk beds."
"We camped in one of the cabins for the first night because there was no availability for the campground sites. It was entirely worth the money!"
"I arrived here in my truck camper to park for a week. It happened to be during a heat advisory, and my camper doesn’t have AC."
"Some shade, shower, laundry. Road noice but not the worst. Grocery store close. Small sites and close. 16 foot travel trailer. Some bigger campers. I would stay again."
$52 / night
"The showers/bathrooms are recently updated, private and nice and clean. Water. power and wifi were all very good. We did not use the pool, but it looked clean and inviting."
"Here’s why it deserves a glowing review:
Stunning Location: Nestled in the heart of Utah’s red rock country, Grand Plateau offers breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere."
"I can’t recall if they all had picnic tables, but some appeared to have a bit of shade. The cabins and containers looked nicely done and the area had good views."
"The containers and cabins look cute. The view of the red cliff is stunning. There was road noise, but it quiets down at night."
$150 / night
"Highlights
-we were there the first week of June and I think I only had 3 mosquitos land in me with the a-frame open."
GuideGreat location. Nice mountain views. Horses across the road. Mule deer out back occasionally. Small RV park with a lot of small cabins. RV spots are small, gravel, and pretty tight. Some sites are not very level. Fire pits and picnic tables. A few sites had a nice brick patio with table & chairs. 2 bars Verizon. Terrible WiFi that is provided by 3d party. Need to register. Keeps quitting.
Private showers and shared bathrooms. All very clean. Laundry: washers are $6.50!
A nice little playground, used pretty regularly by little ones. Lots of space to walk dogs out back. It’s right on main road but not too noisy.
We would stay there again if back in that area.
ScoutCheck in was fast and smooth. Got the key and remote for the tv then head to the cabin that was around the way from the office/pool area. Sheets was provided for the queen bed but not the bunk beds. Which was fine because we were ready with our own sheets. Rest room and shower was right in front of our cabin, so we didn’t have to walk far. Good ac unit and lighting the with number of windows they got. Overall a great experience from our 1 night stay.
LegendZion was a whole new experience!! The sunsets are amazing the hike were just as spectacular. Cabin rental or camper sites available outside the park trail head and is a great alternative if the NP is full.
LegendZion was a whole-nother experience!! Fire red sunsets, completely different setting from where I was use too and one of the tallest trail hikes and rock climb I have been on, seems that throughout the day the settings always change! Cabin rental or camper sites available outside the park trail head. Be prepared for masterpiece painted memories!!
TravelerThis campground is great for exploring Zion National Park. Each campsite has a fire pit and picnic table. There are restrooms with running water and electricity. Only a short walk from a shuttle station and Visitor’s Center. We also had deer around our campsite every morning and evening.
GuideSand Hollow is a beautiful man made lake with bright red sand and clear waters. This park allows for motorized and non motorized boats, off road vehicles, rentals, camping and dogs.
There are very limited spots by the water to camp, and fires are only allowed in specific fire rings. Outside firewood is not allowed. There is also an entrance fee to enter the park, National Park Passes will not work here.
There are nice day use areas, and areas designated for camping. Tents and RVs allowed, although most access roads are covered in thick sand. I would not recommend taking a low clearance vehicle. There is also a small restaurant for food and vault toilets for use.
You cannot camp around the entire lake. The back portion is fenced off, only allowing half of the lake to be occupied. I chose to camp as far away from the other campers by the backside of the lake. It was a very beautiful, sandy spot right by the water. However, it seemed like the other people staying at the park had no sense of respect or personal space. We set our tent up around 2:00pm and we constantly had ATV's, families with dogs off of the leash, fishermen etc walking/driving right through our site. This continued even through the night until quiet hours. Light and sound travel very well over this lake, so someone drunkenly singing with their buddies across the lake sounds like they are right next to you. People are driving their cars at all sorts of hours blinding you with the reflection off of the water. There are Park Rangers that drive around but don't seem to do anything. There was litter everywhere hidden in the sand. There are a couple of trees and bushes that provide some shade but I would recommend bringing a shade tent. There are also a couple of metal tables with attached chairs at some campsite locations.
This would be a beautiful location to visit for the day with your family. I would not recommend camping here overnight unless you don't enjoy personal space, respectful neighbors, quiet hours or humming RVs.
GuideI'm a team member at The Dyrt kicking off the review section with some info from the campground's website.
Water Canyon Cliffside offers a secluded wilderness experience. Each tent site has space for parking, a fire pit, and picnic table. They also have a mini cabin and a canvas tent available to stay in!
There are hiking trails within walking distance, mountain biking trails nearby, and Zion National Park is only an hour drive away!
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.
GuideGreat campsite right down the road from Zion. Only about $45/night and you get clean nice showers and clean bathrooms. There’s free WiFi, laundry facilities, and a game room. Also a nice little restaurant within walking distance (right across the street). Several campsites to choose from - we picked a more secluded one (although it was very close to other sites and near the highway). Picnic tables, table, grill and fire rings at most sites. Access to showers and bathrooms and other amenities 24/7. Great place to stay and they say they always have spots open for last minute check-ins. Will definitely go back in the future and highly recommend!
