Virgin River Canyon Recreation Area

This is a very pretty area! I stayed at campsite 92 right by the river and it was so fun and easy to walk down there and explore. It also wasn't too crowded which was really nice. The bathrooms did get a little gross though, but there was running water. The drinking fountain water wasn't great though, and we ended up just buying bottled water.

Wow. Hidden gem! Can't believe such a scenic, inexpensive campsite is right off the highway like this. Love how you can just pull your RV aside into your spot, too, with no need to reverse. Only reason for 4 out of 5 is the signage to direct you to your site could be much better. We got confused because our reservation was labeled "upper loop" but the signage did not reflect this. I was finally able to find our site by looking at the map posted by the entrance, as there were no signs pointing you to site numbers etc. and the other "loop" appears to be only for day use.

Great site, easy pull up right from the highway. Paved camp spot in-between vegas area and st george area. Optimized for rv or van, but tent camping is still possible. Make sure to hike down to the river at some point. The hike is quick, and the river is impressive from up close. I didn’t hear any road noise from this site, even though I could see the road.

Such a nice location and tremendous scenery. Having a host on site would help for sure … at least for water and garbage management.

Perfect spot for winter camping!

The QR system is not the best for everyone. Maybe you would like a few days away from your smart phone? Why can't they accept cash? Hard to do QR codes at all at night... other than that it is a great stop over at a great price

The most beautiful campground I've ever stayed at. Camp host stopped by and was very friendly and welcoming. Even got some great photos of a herd of Bighorn Sheep on the ridge across from my campsite.

Clean, quiet, beautiful, peaceful and close to home

Love the payment method for this area that is out of cell range. It has well maintained and clean restrooms, lots of nice campsites and good trail access to the surrounding area. It's also located in a convenient area between other state and federal campgrounds.

My senior pass was not accepted at time of payment for unknown reason. All info provided was correct. Camp host did his best to help and gave me the local office number to contact the next day for further assistance. I called, was assured I’d get a call back but they never called back. This all took lot of time and emotional strife and prevented quality time to enjoy the area. We have been to this campground several times before without incident. Very frustrating and disappointing.
