Easy access from freeway, but upper campground has no freeway noise. Lovely spot for an overnight en route to Zion.

Virgin River is a great campsite! Surprisingly quiet given its closeness to I 15 on the upper loop. Good, flat parking and clean facilities. A cleared out pet relief area would help only because the natural beauty in the area includes cactus, but our pups managed okay. Not a complaint, just a potential convenience for the future.
