Site 28 Upper loop had great views but our 36 ft 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.

no toilet paper in the bathrooms. There should be cell service there and there isn’t. The entire facility is overgrown with weeds. It doesn’t look like it’s had any care. Need some love.

We chose the campground for a one night stay enroute to Death Valley. The campground was not crowded, the restrooms were clean and stocked, and it was perfect for our purposes. We had easy access to the river, which our dog really enjoyed.
