Wanted to escape the heat of St. George and spent one night up in Pine Valley. Lots of people there, but not in an intrusive way. Scenery was AMAZING, and we stayed right on the fishing lake. Vault toilets are the CLEANEST I have EVER seen. Took an early morning walk around the lake, and enjoyed the fish jumping and some deer on our path. Other sites in the RV section where we stayed were relatively close, but our neighbors were well behaved--don't expect extreme privacy or solitude here. The views and quiet make up for it. Totally enjoyed it and will be back.

Beautiful scenery, very friendly and helpful camp hosts. The only drawback is the flies other than that everything was perfect.

Pine Valley is now my favorite place to get away from the desert heat. Only 67 mi away and literally 30 degrees cooler. We stayed twice this Summer. Both times at the Crackfoot Campground. We had site #2 and #4. We have a 28 ft trailer and easily fit in either. Four had more shade. Sadly at #6, the person ran their generator all the hours that were allowed. Never shut it off. Definitely ruined the quiet.
Campsites are quite level and spotless. Love the stand for our portable grill. Nice big and deep fire pits. I only went into a park bathroom twice, but they were very clean. The river has been running very well this summer. The walk along it is lovely and relaxing.
