What Guests Are Saying

Pine Valley Recreation Area is praised as a hidden gem in southern Utah, known for its immaculate and well-maintained campgrounds, friendly camp hosts, and beautiful surroundings. Visitors appreciate the cleanliness of the facilities, including pit toilets, and the availability of shaded picnic areas. Though there was a temporary issue with potable water, most campers had a wonderful experience and plan to return.

We did not stay as scheduled, we where not made aware that the fire and trail restrictions had been lifted.
We do plan to visit in the future.

The park itself is very nice our only recommendation would be to get water at the check in station if you have a trailer. Although water is available in the park there are no faucets that you can connect a hose to

The crackpot campground in pinevalley Utah campground is suppose to have about half of the sites first come first serve, you can not reserve them on the gov. site.
However when you actually arrive at the campground expecting to find an open site they will have reserved signs on them. Most of them are apparently saved, or reserved for out of state campers, Nevada and california.
I spoke to one of the caretakers he said he was"just doing what he was told".

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
