Dixie National Forest Crackfoot Campground

8 Reviews

Dixie National Forest Crackfoot Campground, near Cedar City, Utah, is a picturesque spot that invites you to unwind under the towering pine trees. With a lovely creek running alongside, it’s a perfect backdrop for a relaxing camping experience.

The campground offers a range of amenities, including picnic tables and fire pits, making it easy to enjoy meals outdoors and gather around the fire at night. Visitors have raved about the cleanliness of the facilities, with well-kept bathrooms and a friendly camp host who’s always ready to help. One camper noted, “The camp host takes well care of this campground and are very nice.”

For those who love nature, the area is rich with opportunities for exploration. You can fish in the nearby reservoir or take a stroll along the walking and biking paths that weave through the trees. Campers have enjoyed the privacy of the sites, especially those a bit further back, where wildlife like deer and cows might wander through.

While there’s no market on-site, the closest store is just a short drive away, and a nearby steakhouse sells ice, which can be a lifesaver. Whether you’re looking to escape the heat or simply enjoy the beauty of the outdoors, this campground is a fantastic choice for your next adventure.

Beautiful place

This is an amazing campground with a creek that runs all along the east side of the campground that leads to a reservoir. We stayed in site 22, had a breathtaking sunset. Sites 19-23 you have to walk up to, which can be a hassle carrying heavy coolers and totes. But totally worth all the privacy. Cows and deer walk through the sites, it was really cool. They have vault toilets, no sinks but a water filling station. Also sell firewood at the site for $6 a bundle. Camp host take well care of this campground and are very nice. The closest store is about 20 minutes away but the steakhouse down the road sells ice. Was a life savor. We will definitely be return!

A hidden gem

We stayed here after visiting Zion National park. The drive to this site was absolutely beautiful. The sunset over the mountains was breath taking. Our site was fully equipped with a fire pit, grill, picnic table and tent pad. The loop had a bathroom and running water. The host was there to help us find our spot and purchase firewood. Very friendly! Great place to stay in Western Utah.

Nice shady spot with water

The Dean Gardner loop is adjacent to the reservoir. No swimming but you can fish. Lots of big trees, so great for shady hammock naps.
