Basin Campground — Kodachrome Basin State Park

Basin Campground is very nice, however, it is incredibly difficult to tell what each site is like on ReserveAmerica.com. We were originally in site 4, which was so small our tent would not fit. We moved to site A, which is a first come, first served site and it was much better. 

Kodachrome is a beautiful park. Very close to Bryce Canyon National Park, which quite honestly, is much more beautiful. Lots of hiking and even horseback riding available. 

Restrooms are really, really nice. I'm used to pit toilets when I go camping. These had full bathrooms with really nice showers. It rained a lot while we were there and the bathrooms got very wet and muddy and were not cleaned regularly. 

It is a very quiet park. Generators are only allowed from 12-4pm, which is great for tent campers, because we don't want to hear that crap.

The Basin Campground was a wonderful in so many ways. The sites  are clean and well maintained. Our site had a great view of the colored rock hills. Kodachrome wasn't as crowded as Zion so much more enjoyable. The bathrooms...the showers were spa-like!  There were several enjoyable trails nearby and I would highly recommend the nearby drive to Grosvenor Arch. There is a place to do laundry and the visitor's center has wi-fi, ice cream, snacks, and souvenirs. I'm surprised but glad it isn't as crowded as Zion.

Perfect weather, sweet vistas, miles of dog friendly trails and you can’t find showers like these anywhere else.
