Nicely located near Sunset Point and shuttle stops. Nice bathrooms. Water is good. Dump station is conveniently located.

Spacious spot in a quiet campground. It's very conveniently located near the Bryce Amphitheater, making it incredibly easy to roll out of bed and catch a sunrise. Bathroom is close enough but no soap which isn't unusual but worth noting. Only other issue is that the ground isn't level really in any spot but it's not so bad. It gets really cold at night so be prepared. Lots of trees but hammocks aren't allowed.

This was a very nice quiet tree-filled campground with newer bathrooms, spigots for water, tables, fire rings, and roomy parking. Also, available was a trash and propane container disposal. Older bathroom buildings and spigots were present but not in use. The way to the campground was very commercial and did take away from the natural beauty of the surroundings. Showers were not near the campground but available near the commerce. The same was true for wood. Camp hosts were not available amongst the campsites but were somewhat removed and could be summoned if needed.

Bryce Canyon is a national treasure, would definitely stay here again.
Good sites. I stayed in Sunset, Loop B. There needs to be more dedicated access paths to the bathrooms without walking through someone else's campsite.
There was no soap in the bathrooms due to, wait for it..., C*vid. LOL, can't make this up.

We had pretty level sites - some look less so. The bathrooms were clean but lacked any hooks or shelves to place coats and toiletries. Worse, there’s no soap or hand sanitizer. The dish washing station is a real plus as is the nearby shuttle stop. Second time here; didn’t know it had gone to reservations only but managed to find spots for all but two nights. Will book sooner next time!

We had a lovely experience. Other reviews of this site are correct. There is a clearing in the bushes for a 2 person tent, but no larger. A larger tent could fit at this site but would require being placed too close to the fire pit. This site worked great for us, as we only needed one 2 person tent. The site is close to the bathrooms (but not too close) with great vicinity to everything Bryce Canyon offers.

Great campground - close to every scenic spot in Bryce Canyon. You can leave your car at the camp site and walk over to Sunset Point without having to fight with others for a parking spot. Restroom is clean. There are hot water to wash dishes.

Camping in the parks has changed a lot since my early trips in the mid-60s. Campgrounds are more crowded. Not only with more people but also denser spaces. I think “tent only” loops are a mistake. Tent campers generate much more noise, and at odd hours, than RVs. With the exception of generators, RVs are pretty quiet. In the tent loops people seem to be constantly unlocking and locking vehicles, with the corresponding beeps, honks, etc. There are also the slamming doors and hatchbacks. There is very little peace and quiet. Even after dark and into the late hours, it’s noisy. Sleeping is impossible until everyone around your site decides to be quiet. I hate to say it but visiting the parks may well be a thing of the past for me. Recent experiences are dulling some very happy memories. The experience just isn’t the same. One bright spot was the host who helped me out of a jam when I inadvertently arrived a day early for my stay.
