We enjoyed our stay at the Panguitch Lake campground (North side). It was quiet and peacefull. The camp hosts did an excellent job keeping the campground clean in spite of people trashing the restrooms. We were advised ahead of of our arrival date that campfires would be allowed, which we appreciated. What we didn't like was to arrive and find the dump station out of order and due to all the rain that the area was experiencing the campground seven miles down the road from Panguitch lake also had it's dump station closed. So we had to travel down to the town of Panguitch, which is 17 mi (one way) to dump our RV. If you can send out notices about campfires, then you should also be able to send out notifications about dump stations being closed! An early notification on the dump station situation would have allowed us to dump and fill up in a nearby city before heading up the mountain to the campground.

Great location close to Cedar Breaks! The dark sky allows you to see more stars, with the naked eye, than you’ve ever seen before. It’s amazing!!! We love making memories in Southern Utah!

We reserved our campsite at the last minute since our initial plans to visit Mammoth Lakes, CA were cancelled four days earlier due to local fires. The camp hosts were exceptionally helpful in providing a suggested itinerary to visit Cedar National Monument, Bryce and Zion National Parks. In addition the camp host suggested we visit Brian Head Overlook which proved to be a memorable experience. The restrooms were clean and the campsites well maintained. We would certainly recommended this campground and plan to return in the future.

The only complaint is I was admonition for parking off the pavement but the gravel and pavement were so mixed up there was no clear line between the two. Better markings are needed so people can clearly see where the pavement ends and the gravel/dirt begins.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
