Found this place on the DYRT as we were looking for a place to check out when going from Bryce Canyon to Zion. And decided on Cedar city. Almost all RV sites in town were >$60/night, so we opted to dry camp. Pyramid Ridge was exactly what we wanted. And for only $12/night (plus a $8 reservation fee) it was well worth it. Highly recommend.

There’s a cluster of spots for both tents and trailers to post up. The river is beautiful but appears they prefer no access to it. The fence line is down so people go anyways. This place fills up on weekend so if you get there early in day you can pick a prime space. Fire pits are all over and used. We grabbed a spot right next to the bridge and water under the falls colored tree. Stars at night are stunning. It’s quiet but you do hear the occasion car passing by from the nearby road, yet the white noise from the river softens it. October gets around 50 at night so come prepared if you’re tenting. About 20 mins outside of Zion main entrance. The mountains surrounding are beautiful.

Ich habe hier 2 Nächte verbracht. Ich bin alleine unterwegs und ich habe mich noch nie so sicher an einem Ort gefühlt wie hier. Und man hat hier super Internet! (iPhone 13 t-Mobile
Guide
The only con I have is the road in . It resembles the the craters on the moon , we took it slow n easy and found a perfectly flat site . There has to be 20-30 sites available if not more .
Scout
Drive out a few miles past red cliffs reserve till you pass the “your public lands sign” and find pull offs with fire rings. Gorgeous views and we saw no other people but lots of trash/broken glass/shotgun shells. Had to keep our dog on a short leash but worked well for a quick dinner and place to crash for a night
Guide
One of the best hidden gems in Nevada! Great camping with clean restrooms and well maintained campgrounds. Plenty of good trails nooks and crannies to explore.
Highly recommended!!
Scout
All this place is is a trailer park. It has no charm. Maybe if you have no understanding of what a campground is. The tent sites are just gravel with surrounded by brick walls. No trees no View. You have to be a simpleton to appreciate this.
Guide
Geared towards buggies and jeeps but the lady at the desk put us on the outside camp spot which was nice. Clean showers (2) and bathrooms (4). No shade and the lake had a swimmers itch warning which is why it did not get 5 stars. Over all a nice 1 night stay. Close to town for food and close to Zion. Gate closes at 10pm so if your later than that look elsewhere.
Guide
Many spots available. Trees for some shade and a small creek. Stayed on a Wednesday and there was BMX racing at night till 10pm could hear them from our spot but it wasn’t a bother to us.
Guide
This is a great spot for easy access to Zion’s west entrance. It isn’t the quietest spot, lots of people pulling in to find spots late into the night, and you can see and hear your neighbors, but that didn’t bother us much personally. Everything is sandy, so be prepared to shake out your bedding before bed. The roads were not rough, just sandy and bumpy. Many spots to choose from, just look for campsite markers or fire pits. You can hear bomb testing from Nevada which was cool to us, but just a heads up.
Guide
We stayed here for 1 night recently. The site itself was fine, though there was a bunch of trash all over. Enough room for our 39ft rig and toad. The road getting back to it was so twisty and tight that we scratched up the side of our rig. On the way out, we laid our outdoor rug on the bushes to keep from scratching again, so it is possible to get back here, but be prepared to work around that obstacle.
Also, there is a sign at the entrance warning that the area is used for "rodeo livestock" grazing, and to be cautious around them and not to approach them. We never saw or heard them, but it's something to be aware of.
GuideI'm not sure why there isn't a camp location in TD for these two sites, but they are directly off of a single lane, paved road in the same area as the others. These are the only sites I could get our rig to. There is a brown sign on the side of the Hwy 9 that points to a historical marker, if i recall correctly, that you can use as a marker. We have a 39ft Class A and had no trouble getting setup. Plenty of room, a fire ring and great views in the background. It's definitely dusty, but that is my only complaint. Close enough to Hurricane and Springdale to get any supplies you need, too.

Bunch of options, showed up late in my ford fusion. One side of the road has multiple separate lots hidden a bit and across the road is a large lot where I ended up pulling off into, hidden slightly by brush
TravelerWe camped for two nights (Thurs and Fri) in early October. Attached are some photos from our site as well as a map of the camping area. There are 40ish camp sites along unpaved roads. The main road is unpaved but navigable by most any car. The secondary roads that lead to the individual campsites are a bit more treacherous. Would recommend AWD or at least not a super low car as it will likely bottom out. We did it slowly without issue in our Subaru. The camp sites are big enough for multiple cars or an RV. There are fire pits at each. About 100 yards or so between camp sites. We left our tent setup unattended Thursday day while hiking in Zion and had no issue.
The drive to the park is about 30-40 minutes, longer depending on how strong your car is. We were averaging about 10mph on the unpaved roads.
Overall a great place to stay! Beautiful stars, amazing land scape. Quiet and safe place to stay. Will definitely stay here again!
GuideNice park glad to see real grass and shade. Nice facility
GuideIt was pretty easy to find even in the dark which is when we rolled in. Pretty popular spot so you are kinda close to other people but is only 25 mins to Zion and plenty of spots. There is a little river that is so nice to go to sleep to and it is very quiet.
Guide
Gorgeous Campground and 100% worth it to stay in Zion NP. The park gets crazy busy by 8AM ish on the weekend so it made a huge difference staying in the park as it allowed us to be on the first shuttle bus out to the trails every morning. There are tons of mule deer around that definitely get fed so be careful having food out, even while you are cooking they are not shy at all!! Not much privacy but otherwise 10/10
Traveler
Lovely camp site just off the road with plenty of afternoon shade.
Traveler
But very dirt heavy and not many great flat spots. But made it work.
LegendSunny, windy, near beach and quad trail, birds and critters. Table, shelter, power, water and cement pad. Drive thru. Very knowledgeable gate staff
ScoutEasy to find, first right on the road. Nice tree line with shade after 3 pm
TravelerQuite a popular spot, so get there early
Legend
Not a lot of people here, a lot were only passing by.
Scout
Had a fantastic time here with friends for Labor Day weekend. Clean bathrooms, easy hook ups and the host was great. They sell firewood and ice which was a major plus. Also, easy access to town and outstanding hiking within 20 miles all around. Some of the sites are very close together and can be difficult to access with larger trailers. Overall we will definitely be back soon.
Scout
The big pro is that you are really close to a lake where you can go for a swim, quite a rare feature for a campground in Utah. Beautiful surroundings, new showers and restrooms.
Sites are not extremely level, but you can't complain.
Guide
We stayed here for a night by Zion and loved it. It was just off the road, but not too much traffic noise. The little river by the site is very pretty. We only had 2 neighbors, but the spots are decently spaced apart so nobody was too close
Scout
This is a beautiful place, but the road to the campsites are not acceptable for RVs. Also, it seemed like the people were a bit sketchy. I didn't feel safe in this location.
