Nice area. Level paved spots with good space between sites. No Cellular service and no hookups. Boondocking at it's best.

Pull through site was a little tight for our 24 ft trailer+ Tow vehicle. Otherwise paved sites are nice and mostly flat. Hike to the river was a bonus. View of surrounding area delightful. Little noise from interstate did not bother us on upper loop. Great stopover on the way to Zion.

This is a cash free campground, QR codes to pay. But… there is no cell service. WTF? Also flush toilets but no water for campers. WTF? Views were great.

Site 28 Upper loop had great views but our 36ft 5th wheel and truck barely fit. A great campground in a beautiful area.

I always love this campground. While I hear the noise of those who hit the rumble strip on the highway, it's not obnoxious, but soothing. It was great because it wasn't full, so not noisy at all. Clean restrooms.

We prefer staying at this campground when visiting St. George area. The recent renovations to the grounds and campsites were a great improvement.
