Sunset campground - Group Site

Stayed May 27-28 2017 The reserved group campgrounds is immediately to the left after entering sunset campground. Nothing visually amazing but its a pretty chill spot. Site had about 5 tables, and 4 firepit rings. Spread out around the campgrounds. We fit about 6 cars there. Alots of great amneties private to the reserved group campgrounds. Although campers from across the sites, will come by and use the amneties. Cant blame them. Super clean restrooms. Warm running water in the restrooms. Flushing toilets. Private sink for dishwashing. Outdoor water pump for cleaning and pottable water. About a 10-15 minute walk to Bryce Canyon Sunset Point.

Full campground? Audible to primitive!

Honestly, I tend to be terrible at planning things so 75% of the time I just wing it and hope for the best. As is with most cases, the campgrounds in National Parks are booked and congested and I found that to be the case with this location. After a quick conversation with the Ranger at the entrance of Bryce Canyon, he suggested primitive camping just outside the park that was accessed immediately before the Bryce Canyon National Park sign. The other option was a site just outside the park, of $32.00 a night?! No thanks. Avoid the crowds and get dirty. There are countless sites available to choose from, giving you the rare opportunity to pick and choose what best fits your wants and desires. Again, you'll be primitive camping so ensure to bring the essentials, plenty of water, first aid kit, proper attire, etc. Even if you do space and forget a thing or two, you're just outside of "town" where you can purchase nearly anything although it might be a bit over-priced. If your girlfriend complains there aren't toilets or showers, you can simply make the short trek into the park where these amenities are provided.

Bryce North

Great to be so close to thr trails. Camp hosts were awesome, when there wasn't a fire pit they found one for us. Bathrooms were clean and in good working condition. Gets very cold due to the high elevation. Our site was a bit cramped and on the roadway.

Tent flap views

A perfect spot to camp in Bryce. Real close to the visitor center and walking distance to superior panoramas. Very clean bathrooms ( hot water and flushy toilets!) easy access. Lots of trees.

Loved this campground! It was clean, great views, close to trails and easy bus system! The hoodoos are so neat- it was nice to see them at all times of the day and against the brilliant night sky!

Outstanding

The camp was perfect for our short trip. The camps are spread out with plenty of space to roam for the kids. The trails are located close by and offer plenty of opportunity to explore. The facility was clean and the sites were well maintained.

Great Location, Great park

I was only able to spend a short time here on my Utah National Park road trip this year but I really fell in love with this place. It was a little cold when I was here but that just meant fewer people to deal with. The campground is centrally located in the park, not far from the entrance or town. You can also make it to Sunrise Point in just a few minutes (driving) to watch the sun come up. Watching the sunrise here was one of the major highlights of my 10 park trip. It is absolutely breath taking. Another great point is all the way at the end of the road, probably 30 minute drive, and it's called rainbow point. If you feel like going to town to visit the gift shop or have a hot meal, there are several amenities within minutes of the campground.

Relaxing!

We loved camping here. The campground wasn't packed and even if it was, the sites are pretty spread out. The bathrooms were nice, with running water. The canyon is just a short walk from from the campground, so hiking was convenient! Bryce Canyon itself is incredible. It's really beautiful!

No reservation campground right next to Bryce Canyon is perfectly fine!

As the title says, no reservations allowed. We arrived at 9am and there were plenty of people leaving and we had a few campsites to choose from. I believe we camped in loop D. We camped 1 night on a Friday in mid-May and it was cold - upper 30's at night - and windy, so be prepared. The elevation is higher than Zion and some other places in Utah, hence the difference in weather.

The campsites were clean, the bathrooms were clean, and it was very quiet. Most people were burning fires in the evenings and went to bed by 9. There isn't much to do in the town or the campground, so you can expect the same. Camp right by your car, some tree cover and a nice picnic bench. 200 yards or so to the Canyon. Quite a bit further to the lodge but easily walkable in 10 minutes.

Favorite Hike - Fairyland Loop - get away from the crowds and get into the canyon.

Enjoy!

Spectacular Sunrise over the Hoo-Doos

I absolutely love Bryce Canyon. The campground was of course, primitive like National Parks are. No problem with a generator on board. Sites were well spaced and there were many trees. The kids had lots of room to roam here. There are so many hikes to do at Bryce: Queens Garden, wallstreet, etc. The HooDoos are really cool to look at during sunrise. I would definitely go back and spend more time there. Love to see it in winter with snow next time

Centrally Located for Bryce Canyon National Park

Bryce Canyon National Park has a few options when it comes to camping inside the park. The most centrally located and largest is the North Campground near the Fee Entrance to the park and right across from the visitors center. It is a nice campground with lots of space at each site. It is surrounded by pine trees and it was a little hard to find a tent spot that was really level, but I arrived late and didn't get prime choices for campsites, so I took what I could get at about 2pm. There are restrooms at each loop and showers are available at the nearby North Campground General Store. Great night skies for star gazing, and if you want to wake up early the campground is close to Sunrise Point. Bryce Canyon is know for its hoodoo's so make sure you take a least a short hike to get up close to some of those. When it does rain the trails and surrounding areas get very muddy so make sure to bring some shoes you don't mind getting a little dirty.
On a side note before you get into the park and visitor center there is a little town with some shops and restaurants that might interest you. I ended up heading back and grabbing a sweatshirt because it got a little colder than I was expecting at night.

great location

We ended up spending a couple nights here unexpectedly during our trip to Bryce Canyon. Originally we had reserved a teepee at Ruby's campgrounds but had a terrible experience with bugs in the teepee and what topped it off was finding numerous black widow spiders in the teepee, so we opted to camp instead at the North Campground. The campground was simple, but it was clean and well maintained. Our site was shaded most of the day due to the beautiful pine trees surrounding the area. We will definitely camp here or at the Sunset campground next time we visit.

Closest Campground to Bryce National Park

This is one of two campgrounds near Bryce National Park. This one is closer to the Visitor Center and General Store. You can walk!

This is a decent campground - very basic nestled in the mist of tall pine trees. Nothing special - just a good place for access.

There are some spots that can be reserved and some that are first come first serve.
