    Zion Canyon Campground

    Incredible location to fully enjoy Zion National Park. It's worth it.

    Incredible location to fully enjoy Zion National Park. Very clean campground despite being full. The staff is friendly. The sites are very close to each other but they took care to keep the sewers away from our view. Air-conditioned bathroom. One free shower of 6 minutes max per night but it's enough. Shuttle to the park on the corner of the street or 10 minutes walk to reach the Visitor Center. Incredible view of the mountains including The Watchman!!

    South Campground — Zion National Park

    Great campground

    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. Only a short walk from a shuttle station and Visitor’s Center. We also had deer around our campsite every morning and evening.

    Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort

    Most amenities of any campground I've ever seen

    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. Info said 2 miles, but more like 7-8. Upon arrival my kids eyes lit up and we booked 3 mid week nights. Free, private hot showers. Dish was station. Free pool and hot tub, ball sports, playground and fitness trail. Pay for stuff like bungie trampoline and rock wall and put put. 2 camp stores recently equipped, even individual beers(4%). Our site was a little small, tent was to close to the fire ring to feel comfortable with a fire. We peaked at the glamping tents and were jealous, maybe next time. Great spot at $30 a night plus taxes etc.

    Zion West RV Park

    Convenient location to Bryce and Zion

    I have stayed here twice in 2020. Once in January and again in July. I haven’t stayed in an rv but they do have glamping tents and tiny houses to rent on Airbnb for reasonable prices.

    This place is about 45 minutes from Zion National park and 2 hours from Bryce Canyon.

    There’s a laundry room for you to do laundry (bring your own quarters) and the bathrooms are nice and clean. You don’t get as much privacy for the showers as I’d prefer but it’s not that terrible since I think only Airbnb guests uses the restrooms and not the rv guests. WiFi was available for us which helped plan our hikes.

    There are tables around the laundry room building to sit at and relax. It’s a very quiet campground too which made sitting out in the evening very peaceful. The owners are so nice and accommodating. Cell service was okay but goes in and out (1-2 bars for Verizon)

    Zion River Resort

    Nice RV Park, wifi is slow though

    The park itself is nice. Full hook ups, heated pool and hot tub. Restrooms and laundry on site. Propane also on site. There are also a series of fenced in dog parks (3). So if you have dogs that don’t get along with other dogs that’s a plus because you can just go in a different one. The wifi is kind of hit or miss sometimes though. When the park is full at peak times good luck streaming anything. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I wouldn’t spring for the back in river spots unless you just want privacy behind you. The view for us isn’t that great as there is a rock wall behind you so your view is actually of that unless you have a very big rig. It is very close to Springdale and Zion National Park which is very convenient and why we chose it so four stars.

    Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort

    Stay here!

    Beautiful resort, deer everywhere, tons of activities, mini golf, 2 pools and 2 hot tubs, heated bathrooms and showers, restaurants food wasn't very good but the staff was super friendly. It was really cold in October, snowed shortly after arrival. Our site was huge, had 2 fire pits and a picnic table. Not too far from the bathroom. We stayed at site 10 but 11 had the best views in my opinion. Observation point trail is here plus more!

    Snow Canyon State Park Campground

    Not what we had hoped

    We reserved several nights here, based on the expectation of cell reception and electric. I'm working remotely, so these are must haves. When we got there, we found that there was zero service on either of our carriers, and no WiFi available.

    Only the RV sites have power, and the RV sites were pathetically small. They were basically parking spots with tiny shared picnic tables between them. It looked more like a Walmart parking lot than a campsite. Very disappointing.

    If you're able to go without power and internet, the tent sites were fairly nice. But if you need either, look elsewhere.

    Zion Canyon Campground

    Beautiful and convenient

    Lovely spot with a river running along one side, but only people with river spots have access to it! Conveniently within the nice town of Springdale and very close to park entrance. The spots are narrow and not private, very close to neighbors. Campfires are allowed which is both a pro and con because the canyon tends to trap all the smoke and it gets difficult to breathe with so many fires. Many restaurants are within walking distance. It’s a great spot if you will be spending most of your time away from camp in the park or in town.


Guide to Veyo

Camping near Veyo, Utah offers diverse terrain from red rock formations to pine forests at elevations ranging from 3,500 to 7,000 feet. The area experiences hot, dry summers with temperatures often exceeding 95°F, while spring and fall provide milder conditions ideal for outdoor exploration. Winter camping is possible at lower elevations, though higher areas may close due to snow.

What to do

Hiking trails access: At Snow Canyon State Park Campground, trails lead directly from camp into stunning volcanic landscapes. "Great red rock/lava flow hiking trail options, most are easy/moderate, nice loop through Snow Canyon and around on mesa and back for road cycling," shares Mark M. The park offers multiple terrain types within walking distance.

Red Cliffs exploration: Located just 20 minutes from Hurricane, these recreation areas provide less crowded alternatives to Zion. "There is more than Zion within 10 min of this campground. Red Cliffs Rec area has beautiful trails and dinosaur tracks," notes a visitor at Leeds RV Park.

Water activities: During summer months, nearby reservoirs offer cooling relief. "Two state parks within a 20 mile radius are water sport havens (Sand Hollow and Quail Creek)," explains Rachel H. at WillowWind RV Park. These reservoirs allow swimming, fishing and boating when temperatures climb.

Virgin River access: Several campgrounds offer direct river access. "The cool Virgin River behind our site was a nice place to soak our tired feet and enjoy a beverage after hiking in Zion," mentions Larry E. from Zion River Resort. The river provides natural cooling during hot summer months.

What campers like

Peaceful settings: Kolob Gate Gardens offers creek-side camping with natural sounds that enhance relaxation. "The creek was wonderful to be next to and was so peaceful at night," shares Evan O. Campers appreciate the ambient creek sounds as a natural sleep aid.

Dark skies viewing: Areas outside town centers provide excellent stargazing opportunities. "The night skies were also to die for," notes Abby T. about their glamping experience near Veyo at Kolob Gate Gardens. The minimal light pollution allows for exceptional astronomical viewing.

Less crowded alternatives: Several campgrounds provide a more relaxed atmosphere than the major national park. "We preferred the pace of Virgin over Sugardale, and it was only 20min away," says Larry E. about Zion River Resort. These alternatives balance access with tranquility.

Shade coverage: Many campgrounds feature mature trees that provide critical relief from summer heat. "Despite basically being in a desert, the park had lush grass in every spot and a dense tree cover. It was about 10 degrees cooler in the park because of the shade from the trees," notes Jenny W. about WillowWind RV.

What you should know

Site selection matters: Campground layouts vary significantly even within the same facility. "The non-hookup sites are MUCH better than the ones with hookups. The hookup sites are VERY narrow (some as little as 10 feet wide) and difficult to pull into," advises tom R. at Snow Canyon State Park.

Water conditions: The Virgin River occasionally experiences water quality issues. "On our recent trip the river also had some kind of bad algae and you were warned to keep all pets, etc. out of the water," reports Victoria C. These conditions can change seasonally.

Wi-Fi variability: Internet access differs dramatically between campgrounds. "Wifi was an 'Access code' WiFi so it works fine on a device but won't work on a smart TV, Roku, Apple TV, etc because they don't have access to a browser," explains Lance S. at WillowWind RV Park.

Temperature extremes: The high desert climate creates challenging conditions. "I'd recommend this as an early spring camp outing. The temps climb quickly in Southern Utah in late spring," advises Jake C. about Snow Canyon. Morning and evening temperature swings of 30°F are common.

Tips for camping with families

Swimming options: Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort provides recreational facilities that complement camping. "While we were too tired to take advantage of all the activities offered at the resort, we spent a good amount of time in the hot tub and pool which we had all to ourselves," shares Katie M. These facilities provide essential cooling during hot months.

Sand play areas: Natural features provide entertainment for children. "My kids had a blast in the sand dune area," mentions Jake C. about Snow Canyon State Park. These geological features become natural playgrounds without requiring additional equipment.

Organized activities: Some resorts offer structured programming. "Lots of fun for kids. Horseback riding, putt putt golf, pad boards," notes David G. about the Zion Ponderosa facilities. These activities provide entertainment during downtime between major excursions.

Shower facilities: For glamping in Veyo, Utah area with children, clean facilities make a significant difference. "The shower/restroom facilities were very clean. For the area and getting FHU, it's cheap," reports Clean Slate D. about Leeds RV Park & Motel. Well-maintained facilities reduce stress with children.

Tips from RVers

Site width considerations: Leeds RV Park & Motel provides properly sized spaces for larger rigs. "The campground is very open and is year round. It's very well manicured and the bathhouses are clean. For the area and getting FHU, it's cheap," explains Clean Slate D. Site dimensions matter for RV slide-outs and awnings.

Navigation challenges: Some campgrounds have tricky entrances. "I would not recommend staying in them. I would highly recommend staying in the park to be able to enjoy all of the scenery," advises tom R. when discussing the tight hookup sites at Snow Canyon.

Internet reliability: Remote work capabilities vary by location. "We needed stable, steady Internet for a month. While we regularly travel with two hotspots for Internet coverage, we barely needed to use them," notes Rachel H. at WillowWind. Internet access varies widely between campgrounds in the region.

Seasonal flexibility: Year-round options exist for RV glamping near Veyo. "The park is on the edge of town but close to anything you might want or need. Our site was directly across from the playground and 50 steps from the off-leash dog park," explains Lane H. about Cedar City RV Resort by Rjourney, which offers facilities for extended stays.
