The Best Camping Near Dixie National Forest, Utah

When looking to book a campground near Bryce this was ranked pretty high and about 30 minutes away from the park and about 1.5 hours from Zion. Wanting to stay closer to Bryce and now knowing the lay of the land I would have stayed at the Ruby Inn RV Park right outside of Bryce. However, this place was great. You can opt for a riverside site (worth the extra $) and still have hookups to fresh water and 30 amp. Fishing in this little creek was great. Even though the creek was small there were some BIG trout! Super clean and quiet in this vast valley with beautiful sunsets. Free showers and flush toilets were clean. No communal dump station. Sites off the river with full hookups were the only ones with a dump. Great deli inside the market across from the checkin. 

Nice and Quiet 

Extremely friendly, funny check in personnel! Gravel throughout the side of the park we stayed in. Nice river rock for a patio area feel. Some grassy area for the pups to do their business. Unshaded. There are a lot of activities for the kids or active adults(basketball, teether ball, corn hole, and swings). We were in site B-18 with FHU. Level. AT&amp;T, TMobile Cell service.

  

About a 30 minute drive to Bryce Canyon. A must do if you have time to go. Also, have dinner at The Outlaw Saloon a mile up the road! Amazing, amazing, amazing steak! And I am very particular how my steak is cooked!

Great place to stay to visit Bryce Canyon

Nice people, showers, fishing, games for Kids, very good place 

Very good place to stay

The Riverside Ranch is truly a one in a million place where not only is it a great place to camp, but you are treated like family from the time you check in until the time you pull out.  Joel and Nicole are the campground managers and you simply couldn't ask for better people. They love the property and go above and beyond to accommodate everyone that comes through. We had a couple of deliveries and they brought them right to our site. We selected riverfront site #12 and it was amazing. Backed right up to the Sevier river with amazing views of the mountains. And to make things even better, at night it felt like you could see a million stars above. Only 30 minutes from Bryce Canyon and 10 minutes from Red Canyon. We absolutely loved this place and will definitely stay again if we come back to the area.

Fantastic Friendly Campground

Very good park in the small town of Hatch, Utah. Clean quiet park with full hookups and all the necessities. Bathrooms and showers were good and staff was very friendly and accommodating. Recreational stuff at the park was good although we were gone during the day visiting local national parks. Can be very windy at times so awnings stayed in the whole stay(4 nights). Pretty level sites on gravel. Perfect location to do Bryce Canyon(45 min) and Zion(90 min to East entrance) We camped at The Riverside Ranch in a Motorhome.
