We loved it here! Not very busy and very quiet at night. Toilets were super clean. Place is perfect for watching the stars. It is close to Kanab and the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. Pretty stunning Sand Caves nearby aswell.

Nice little campground, with clean bathrooms. About 25-30 spots and we got one pretty easily, even on a holiday weekend. $12 per night to camp.

Pretty nice place up here at 6,300 ft in elevation! A little chillier at night but a warm day. All kinds of things to do & the restrooms are very clean! Made some great memories.

My favorite place to be. Staff is amazing, the site is butiful. Perfect for kids. The foods is great, prices are reasonable. Lots of activities for the whole family. Right beside Zion National park.

One of those places where you selfishly don't want to leave a review so it doesn't get too popular! I absolutely hate first come first serve campgrounds because I'm so stressed about finding a spot but there were plentyyyyy when I arrived at noon on a Sunday in June. Only two other people there. Four other people showed up during the next few days, still leaving plenty of spots available. I stayed in site 18 and loved it. It felt so private and pretty. Flat and clean tent pads as well. Bugs are so-so. There's a beehive in site 23 I think it was, but there's a sign at the check-in thing letting you know that. Check-in was also extremely easy and took cards.
