Perfect Camp for Capitol Reef Visit

This campsite is right at the entrance to Capitol Reef NP, so it is a perfect spot for those visiting.  All of the campsites are fairly close to each other and there is not much privacy between the sites, but that is made up for by the amazing surroundings.

You are right in the middle of the historical town of Fruita, with the CRNP visitor center nearby.  There is also a great picnic/day use area nearby.

We saw a family of deer all lounging right at the campground amphitheater after we took a walk down the Fremont River Trail.

If you come here, you MUST take the scenic drive to the end of the Capitol Reef Gorge, and stop for a pie on your way out
