Best Cabin Camping near Zion National Park

556 Reviews

Cabins at Zion River Resort, Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort, and Gateway Luxury RV Resort provide dry, climate-controlled accommodations within minutes of Zion National Park's entrance gates. Furnished options typically include beds, basic furniture, electricity, and heat/air conditioning. The St. George/Hurricane KOA Journey offers cabin rentals with picnic tables and fire rings outside, while maintaining proximity to shower facilities and flush toilets. Electric hookups allow for small appliances, though cooking facilities vary significantly between properties. Pet policies differ by location, with several properties explicitly advertising pet-friendly cabin options. WillowWind RV Park cabins feature additional glamping-style amenities. A recent review noted, "The views from our spot were fantastic! The sites are a little close to one another, but I've seen worse."

Most cabin accommodations near Zion require advance reservations, particularly during peak summer months when availability becomes extremely limited. Options range from tiny log cabins to spacious family-sized layouts with multiple rooms and expanded amenities. Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort offers upscale cabin options with more comprehensive furnishings compared to the basic KOA cabins available at St. George/Hurricane KOA. Winter availability varies, with some properties like WillowWind RV Park and Zion Canyon Campground advertising year-round operations. Booking windows typically open 2-6 months in advance depending on the property. "Booking here opens two weeks in advance and I just happened to grab the last site available in our timeframe," explained one visitor, highlighting the competitive reservation process.

Guests should verify specific cabin amenities before arrival as furnishing levels differ significantly. While beds are standard, many cabins require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from none to basic microwave/refrigerator setups, rarely including full cooking equipment. Several properties feature on-site markets, including Zion Canyon Campground, Zion River Resort, and South Campground, providing basic provisions for guests who prefer not to bring everything. Firewood is available for purchase at most locations that permit fires. Leeds RV Park & Motel and several other properties prohibit fires altogether, which impacts meal planning options for cabin guests without kitchen facilities.

    Camp Lutherwood of Utah

    Great Spot!

    My friend and I were going from Zion National park to Mesa Verde and this was a great place to stay on the way over. We got a cabin for $25 (cash or check only) and there’s free showers, a kitchen, and a fire pit. There’s electricity and great cell signal. It’s very clearly a Christian-run facility (I believe they do summer camps here) but not in an exclusionary way by any means. Definitely a great stop for travelers.

    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)

    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 River Resort

    Awesome Base Camp

    Stayed for 4 nights. The park is 10minutes away from Zion National Park and about 2hrs from Bryce Canyon. The park is adjacent to the Virgin River. Walking path to the river is great for kids. Verizon signal is poor but TMobile gets 4 bars. This park is the best alternative when campgrounds inside Zion are booked. The park store is relatively full of pertinent supplies and gift items. They even have a “mining” activity for the kiddos. Would def stay here again when we visit the area next.

    Water Canyon Cliffside Cabin L and L

    Stunning views of the Canaan Mountains

    I'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!

    Cabin review

    Check 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.
