Fantastic Park

We stayed here for 10 days in July while exploring Bryce Valley. We were in spot 106 at the end of a row. The location of this park is fantastic and very convenient to Bryce National Park. The standout features of the park are location, AMAZING bathhouse, incredibly clean, quiet and a very nice laundry facility. This park also offers a very nice selection of staples in their camp store. In addition to the accessibility of Bryce National Park, this location is two hours from Zion National Park, Willis Creek Slot Canyon is a fantastic dog/kid friendly hike about 30 minutes away, and Bull Valley Gorge is just beyond Willis Creek and a spectacular but more challenging slot canyon experience. Kodachrome State Park is 10 miles away and is another great place to hike and Mossy Cave is 7 miles up the road and not to be missed. Of note, Highway 12 runs in front of this location and is great for road cycling in either direction.

Great park in a great location

We stayed here for a week in July on site 115, which is an end spot with a lot of room around it. The location of this park is fantastic and very convenient to Arches, and the staff was helpful and friendly. The standout features of the park are location, amazing bathhouse, cleanliness, quiet and a nice pool. Bonus: Proper Brewing is next door to this park and offers a nice selection of beer and has a great burger. We also really enjoyed a hike at Grandstaff Trail, which was less than 10 minutes down the road.

Decent stop over

This is a decent stop over during travel. The site was wide and level and had mature trees. The park itself isn't far from the interstate, which makes it fantastic for an easy off and on, but also comes with some road noise. There is also a truck stop at the end of the road for convenient fill up.

Great location but sites aren't very nice.

We stayed here June 27th-29th in a Deluxe Plus Pull Through. This RV Park is adequate as a stop over when visiting Garden of the Gods due to the location; otherwise, this park isn't anything special. Our site consisted of a narrow dirt pad and we did have a picnic table, but our neighbor's sewer connection was literally right next to our table. The spots are super close throughout the park& neighboring hookups are right outside the door. Also, there was tent camping in the RV spots, which isn't a big deal but certainly has a very different vibe than families who are RVing with their kids.

Lovely, very quiet and plenty of privacy

At first glance you could think that this park may be lacking in privacy considering all of the amenities. We found the exact opposite to be true during our stay from Monday, October 31st-Thursday, November 3rd. The first thing we noticed was how far apart the sites are, and they offer plenty of privacy. When we arrived on Monday there were two other couples staying on property and we saw them in passing but didn't hear a thing. The next day we saw one other camper at the lake while we were fishing & he left the next morning. Our last night at The Range found us camping alone … It was a lot like boondocking with full hookups. We saw no one and the only thing we could hear were the coyotes in the distance at night. 

I imagine that this property is hopping during the weekends and in season, but we found that it is also very peaceful and offers a remote feeling even when other camper are nearby.

The website is spot on when it comes to describing this park … No embellishments. It's genuinely wonderful.

An absolutely lovely park

The RV sites are basic FHU on grass, but the farm is stunning! Hands down the loveliest location with great amenities.

Sun Outdoors

We stayed at Sun Outdoors in St. Augustine for five days at the beginning of September. This park is clean, quiet, nice amenities, and has decent wifi. We stayed in the Oasis section and the sites are upgraded a bit with pavers rather than a gravel pad. Our only complaint is that the drainage at our site, #138, wasn't great. The entrance to our site always had standing water. This didn't seem to be a common issue across the park, but we did see several other sites that were experiencing the same large puddling problems.

A place to park with no bath, no amenities and mostly long term residents

The 5 star reviews are perplexing. We're not new to RVing and have stayed in plenty of lovely mom& pop parks. This is a family owned campground, but it is basically a parking lot with hookups for people who live there long term. Our site was on the side of a road about 50 yards away from the Dump Station. It was referred to as a premium, pull through rather than what it is… a pull to the side of the road. There was no grass or picnic table. I'll post pictures that show the condition of our site and how close the spots are to one another. The pictures online and YouTube videos of this park are very deceiving. The grassy areas beside and between the lakes can only be accessed by walking though other camper's sites.

** Use caution navigating the park because the roads at the back have no way to turn around if you get back there.

Clean, quiet but dated site

I truly appreciated the staff. They do a wonderful job during check in and it’s clear they attend to the cleanliness of the property. My only negative is that we felt the price was a bit high for off season accommodations & the condition of our site showed general wear and tear. The blacktop on our pull through was very cracked & uneven, the picnic bench was worn and the surrounding area was neither fully grass or fully pebbles. It was a dated site for $51.50 per night & that included a 10% Dyrt Pro discount.

Unbelievably clean and quiet!

Powder Horn is the best place we’ve ever stayed. Yes, it’s large. Yes, there are people who live there for months at a time, but this park is crazy clean … roads & restrooms. It reminded me of Disney in the way we never saw trash on the ground. They have quiet hours, large pool, activities for the family, movie nights, etc. They also have a shuttle to the beach.

50 cent showers & $4 poo bags

True story. We stopped at Molly Stark state park in Vermont on the way home after vacationing in Maine. The sign coming into the park said no vacancy. When we got to the parking area I went up to the office counter and said, “We’re just stopping through. My husband is going to ride his bike for a bit and we’ll eat lunch, but we’re not staying.” The guy working said, “You still need to pay something.” I said, “Of course. No problem.” He said $4, I paid & started to walk away. The woman working said, “We have very nice clean bathrooms if you need them.” Which I thought was nice. My husband rode for about 45 minutes and then we walked to the bathhouse for him to take a quick shower. He says, “Do you have 50 cents? It’s 10 minutes for fifty cents.” While he’s showering I’m walking around with our dog. She poos and now my husband is walking towards me with a bag to pick it up because his 50 cent shower is finished. Before we can pick up after our dog the office worker comes towards me quickly and says, “Here’s a poo bag. Now you’ve at least gotten your 4 dollars worth.” I said, “Excuse me?” And he says, “You tried to get out of paying in the first place and now you’re using our showers. You said you were just eating lunch and your husband riding his bike.” My husband says, “I paid fifty cents for that shower. I didn’t steal it.” The guy says, “You said you were just stopping in.” I say, “Do you want more money?” And he says he wants another 4 bucks. I walk up to the counter to pay and say, “I try to assume the best of people. I want you to know that I wasn’t trying to get out of paying. I saw the no vacancy sign and didn’t want you to think we were trying to stay the night.” He said that he’s tired of people with the nicest stuff … a multi thousand dollar bike and a nice RV trying to get something for nothing.” I reminded him that he said admission was 4 dollars and his coworker offered the bathrooms. He said, “So you don’t think you got 8 dollars worth of time in the park?” I told him, no, that we’d been there for an hour and 20 minutes and he’d told me admission was $4, but if the extra money would make things right for him then he could have it. I just didn’t appreciate him thinking I was trying to talk my way out of paying park entry, and I didn’t appreciate him assuming I had a character flaw. He told me again that it was rich people who tried to get out of paying, he was jaded & to keep my 4 dollars. What an odd experience.
