Red Canyon (Ashley National Forest)

Karen is a superb host. Our trip is always something we look forward to because of her personality and care of the camp sites.
We love canyon rim and red canyon the most. You are fortunate to have her in your employment. She is most welcoming and professional . Coming to red canyon is like coming home!!!

I loved being on the rim because it made for stunning sunsets. You can walk to the visitor center in about 5 minutes from this campground to watch the sunset. We also walked along the Canyon Rim Trail out of this campground (about 2 mi) to the Red Canyon Lodge and stopped and had lunch so that was a fun adventure. We had a 24' RV and reserved site #003 and that was the best spot for an RV. Site #002 is a little better but that's tent only. It was very hot on the rim in July but if it's only a 20 minute drive down to the Green River if you need to cool off.

Great campsite. Level ground, some shade, excellent views, and easy access to trails and the Visitor Center. There are vault toilets in camp, but they are small and dark. The ones by the Visitor Center are larger, better equipped, and not much further away. Hopefully they can repair the water system, but for now there is no water in camp. Closest water is a mile or two down the road at the next campground. The Geology Loop drive is definitely worth a visit. Beautiful scenery. If you plan to shower at the nearby campgrounds that have showers, make sure to get a shower pass from the campground host. (The hosts were not on site; they were at Firefighters’ Campground when we were there).

Very exposed, right on top of the site next to it. Not as pictured on the outside of the loop towards the canyon, it’s actually inside the loop and only has a parallel parking space.

Beautiful area with great views and nice canyon over-look trail. Drive up from Vernal, Utah includes trailhead for Dinosaur Track Trail. Not an easy trail, but worth it to see actual dinosaur footprints preserved in stone. Although there were said to be hundreds of prints, we found only half a dozen, but still an unforgettable experience. Campground had no water, so be sure to bring what you need. Campground Host, Karen and husband were super nice, kind and welcoming.

Always love our time at Red Canyon. The camp host was exceptional in their oversight of the campgrounds - professional, friendly, thorough, and kind. The camp host deserves this great review for their job well done!

Nice low key small campground with 8 sites, lots of tents, camper vans, tiny trailers. Right near trails and rock scrambling. Really fun!

Campsite #2 was perfect for us in our Sprinter Van. It is very close to an amazing view of the gorge - a great cocktail & coffee overview. I do wish that the water was "on". The restroom was clean.

We loved staying here! The views are stunning and close by, like literally just a few hundred feet from the campsite. Very quiet and clean. Great hiking located nearby with even more excellent views!
