Amazing campground, I have to say there is no SIGNAL, so be aware of that! However, it was the most peaceful and enjoyable experience.
Really recommend this place, there was no showers (at least at the loop we were staying at).

Orchards full of all colors on red cliff backgrounds. Motorcycle adventures surround you. Amazing hikes right from the campground. Heated bathrooms in the cold fall days. A great place!

Great location and staff. New reservation only system an absolute disaster. Not everyone travels on an itinerary. Some of us prefer the Fist come/first serve option. At least some (1/3-1/2) needs to remain FF. We used to be able to arrive and find a suitable spot and decide how long to stay, up to the 14 days. Now with reservations required it’s hard to find a place to stay the 14 days, someone has often booked a single day, or weekend for every site. This needs to change.

Beautiful campground, hosts were very helpful however. We were under the assumption that we would not need reservations after Nov 1 but we found out that the policy was changed 2 weeks prior to our arrival. We were not the only campers who were inconvenienced but the sudden change in policy. Also, we go camping to enjoy peace and quiet. For 2 days straight there was a NPS employee running a gas-powered leaf blower in our campground from 10 am until 3pm. Come on! it's a campground not a country club.
Other than that we had a great time there.

We had a nice stay at the campground. Enjoyed the fall colors, the deer wandering through the campground munching on honey locust bean pods, and the cool weather. Fall is a good tome to visit CARE.

Wide open spaces, spectacular views, dish washing station, flush toilets and mule deer roaming around. Loved our time at Capitol Reef. Make sure you catch the Ranger Talks, the pie and ice cream, some hikes and enjoy the amazing peace and quiet without WiFi and cell service.
