What Guests Are Saying
North Fruita Desert Campground offers fantastic sites with great access to mountain biking trails, making it an ideal spot for family trips. The campground is clean, well-marked, and features nicely wooded areas for shade, along with newly paved access roads. However, some campsites are close together, which can lead to noise, and visitors are advised to bring their own toilet paper as supplies may run out.

Paid for a K site. They don’t exist. Spent $28 and 30 minutes driving around trying to find it. Friends did the same thing. Had to stay in dispersed since everything else was reserved.
