Snow Canyon State Park Campground

Nicely kept state park, safe, on outskirts of St. George UT. RV spaces are CLOSE together. Tent sites are better, spacious. Showers in tent area have a pull-chain. From their website: 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily Phone: 435-628-2255 Fax: 435-628-9321 Management: Kristen Comella, Park Manager Jesse Henderson, Assistant Manager.  Great red rock/lava flow hiking trail options, most are easy/moderate, nice loop through Snow Canyon and around on mesa and back for road cycling. Great mtn biking in St. George area (including a roller coaster ride on hard packed single track: Bear Claw Poppy and Snake Pit Loop trails. Many other trails in area). Huntsman World Senior Games held 2 to 3 weeks in Oct. in St. George. Traffic in St. George can be heavy at times particularly during typical rush hour times.

We were in site 16A. It was close to 16B, which would be perfect for a large group, but we had plenty of privacy. Our site could have had 3-4 large tents with plenty of room. There was another group at 16B and we could see them, but it was very quiet at night. The hikes her easy and fun and we will definitely go back.

4 mile long campground with lava tunnels, petrified, sand dunes, and red cliff cliffs. Access to 14 miles of trails only 50 yards from the campgrounds. All RV sites are paved and close together, non-electric sites have a little more space. The campground is also the site of the Rangers station so a lot of traffic during the day but very quiet at night.

Was a fantastic place for the work week with easy hikes after the workday was done. The campground is surrounded by high red rocks and is a beautiful scenic setting.

Update to some other reviews - Dogs are now allowed on ALL the trails. This is a beautiful area for hiking and camping. The RV sites with hookups are a little crowded but other sites are very private.

CG is quite small considering the popularity. Sites are $40 no hookups, $45 elect hookups. Group sites are $200+. Cell signal is very poor. 29 sites plus two group sites. Showers available, no Xtra charge. No firewood for sale in CG so bring your own. SC-1-14 are elect and water hookup but are very close together! Only criticism is the $20 extra vehicle fee...that is way too high... imo

This campground was awesome! A map and information guide was waiting with out name on it when we arrived, easy access to water and a bathroom. Amazing views from the campsite, and sites were nicely organized and separated from one another.

Very nice campground. Lots of trails but I brought my dog and dogs are not allowed on most of the trails. So disappointed because that’s what Addie and I do is explore.

My second visit to Snow Canyon was just as rewarding as the first one. Gorgeous red rock scenery and impeccable maintenance for this lovely box canyon named after a pair of brothers with a last name of Snow. 

During the second visit in May the weather was perfect for sleeping without the tent fly--- stars overhead.

Showers and bathrooms are first class.

Great tent section but strange RV section though--- looks like urban parking lot. 

Excellent staff.

Tent sites are lovely except for site # 28 which is in a "hole". 

Campground is 25 minutes from St. George.

Got spot #22. Very secluded yet close to bathhouse. Hot shower (no extra charge) was wonderful. Ranger at check-in was super nice and helpful. Lots of trails you can even take your dog on. I got one bar of Verizon near the bathhouse.

Snow canyon state park has beautiful red rock, great hiking trails

Great staff, small sites although they did have one for our 39' 5er.

Spent a week here. Hiking in canyon land right from campground, Zion is 45 minutes away, super biking there. Showers are clean and with hot water. Overall nicely run campground

Stayed here for the weekend. First time camping here. The non-hookup sites are MUCH better than the ones with hookups. The hookup sites are VERY narrow (some as little as 10 feet wide) and difficult to pull into. I would not recommend staying in them. The park is beautiful to see and there are many great hikes. I would highly recommend staying in the park to be able to enjoy all of the scenery.

Don’t skip Snow Canyon. It’s absolutely gorgeous and never crowded. I’ve stayed here three times now and absolutely love it. Surprised by some of the reviews. Yes, the pull-thru sites are very close together (I’ve never stayed in one) but the rest are very spacious. Lots of trails and a walking /bike path that runs the long of the park (dog-friendly too!)

3.5 really. The park is beautiful and the location of the campground was as well. However, sites 1-14 are basically parking spots. You are really close to your neighbors and have very little privacy. But there are some tent sites with power that are more spread out. We will get one of them next time.

We reserved several nights here, based on the expectation of cell reception and electric. I'm working remotely, so these are must haves. When we got there, we found that there was zero service on either of our carriers, and no WiFi available.

Only the RV sites have power, and the RV sites were pathetically small. They were basically parking spots with tiny shared picnic tables between them. It looked more like a Walmart parking lot than a campsite. Very disappointing.

If you're able to go without power and internet, the tent sites were fairly nice. But if you need either, look elsewhere.

This is a wonderful campground. The sites are well designed and some are really special. The reason I gave it only three stars has to do with pets. Dogs are not allowed on any hiking trails. They are allowed, however, on the paved bicycle trail which felt dangerous for both dogs and bicyclists. My 17 year old cat is a well seasoned camper. He free ranges around where he feels comfortable and always knows where home lies. The Camp Ranger ordered my cat to be leashed. That was a first in four months of camping and I knew it would not go well. We were going to stay for one week but left after only one night. Disappointed.

We pulled in on a Saturday night, no reservations, but lucked out and grabbed the last site in the park to pitch our tent. RV spaces are VERY close together, but if you don’t mind not having hook ups, head to the back of the park. Really pretty sites, not on top of each other. Great views. Park has showers. Bathroom was ok. Not too far off I-15 to make it a stop on your way further north.

We did the tent sites. Excellent sites, though sites closer to the center of the canyon have zero shade. But well built, with a picnic table and grill, and leveled. Pretty little state park but...one bathroom was broken and the code they gave us for the women's showers didn't work. Very confused young man as my wife exited the man's shower.

SCSP is amazing. We live about a 5 minute drive from the South entrance. We’ve lived in the area for 3 years now so we’ve hiked everything in Snow Canyon multiple times, but it’s gotten so popular that it’s hard to get a site without reserving pretty far in to the future. We are more spontaneous than we are planners so we are usually out of luck. But this time we got site 21, which is awesome, on Easter Weekend with no notice.. only because the corona virus was keeping non-locals out of the Park.

Came here for an evening bike ride and backpackers dinner to watch the sunset and see some stars. It was peaceful and beautiful! The 3 mile paved bike path is brand new and I enjoyed riding through the park.

Bathrooms were clean and the campground was full but seemed quiet and nice. I made some dinner at the picnic tables and only had to share the space with a squirrel. This is a good day use area but I’d definitely come back and camp here. It’s a well thought out park with well marked trails and information a long the way to make your hikes more interesting.

Cell service was okay (1-2 bars with Verizon). There’s drinkable water pipes too which was nice to fill my water bottles.

I'd recommend this as an early spring camp outing. The temps climb quickly in Southern Utah in late spring. My kids had a blast in the sand dune area.

I had no idea this place existed and I’ve been driving through St. George for years. There is a lot of beautiful variety in the landscapes within the park. The park fee was $10 but if you camp at Snow Canyon, it’s included in the cost.

The sand pit reminded me of something from the Flintstones. A great spot to take your kids to play in this super soft, red sand. I would recommended taking a bike or a longboard (like I did in my video) and ride along the paved sidewalks. You get to be immersed in the vegetation and have a great view of the canyons. Definitely will be returning soon!

Dry camping. They have a few spots with hook ups but you are basically in a parking lot just feet away from next RV. Many spots not level. No shade. Scenery is very nice. Colored rocks. Not far from St.George. Was very hot for May. They have showers public restrooms.

Good accommodations. Comfortable with great vistas. Restrooms and shower facilities very clean.

Spent two glorious days in the Park. Was able secure a camp spot and was very impressed with accommodations. Great recreational opportunities. Presented great photo opportunities.

A definite must. Very photogenic with great hiking and biking opertunities
