The bathrooms were amazing. Never been to a campground bathroom so clean

Beautiful location. Campsites are spread out for decent amount of privacy. Roads are excellent and easy pull in. Restrooms very clean. Only downside is that you can hear traffic in the gorge, but it is not intrusive

Great campground in a great area. very close to St George, Utah. Could use more flat areas for tents, many sites cannot accommodate tents (too sloped, or rocky), but we made it work.

We had a good time here and the view from our spot (#25) was really pretty. The site was pretty well kept and I would possibly consider camping here again, but I gave four stars because the highway was pretty loud from our site (we were in a tent), and the tent pad was really small so we had to find a spot near the pavilion and it was really, really rocky. Overall, it was a good place to stay, especially because literally everywhere else in southern Utah was booked.

Stayed for one Night on our way from las Vegas to Zion Nationalpark.
The campground ist very good maintained. The restrooms very clear.
The campground is also very quiet - might be because nearly Nobody was there in this night…?
Virgin River Canyon Recreation Area is also trailhead for many trails in this area.
