I've been to my fair share of campgrounds, and Fruita Campground is, hands down, the best campground I've ever been to. Why? 

- greenery. Among tons of dirt and rocks, Fruita offers gorgeous greenery and trees and shade! 

- free fruit trees. We came during peak apricot season, so we got to pick tons of free apricots for our journey to Zion after our stay here. 

- free firewood. Let's face it - you're in the middle of the desert so there's not a ton of firewood that you can legally buy/pick. They have it for free. 

- camp store - sells tasty pies, desserts, and more. Be sure to grab some! 

- wildlife. We saw lots of wildlife while we were here.

- stars. Some of the best stars I've ever seen while camping!
