Absolutely wonderful campsite. Full of covering trees to shade from the intense sun. Great hiking and biking.

Really unique campsite for a National Park. Sites are kind of close compared to other National Parks in Utah (in my opinion), but really beautiful scenery and unique history.

What a charming campsite. There’s not a lot of privacy, but the old cottonwoods and other trees provide cool shade, and it’s really so neat to be in the heart of the park and right next to the small but mighty Fremont River. We really enjoyed. We also really appreciated the extra effort to shield lights inside and outside of bathrooms - incredible stargazing from our tent because of that. It also meant for kinder night time bathroom visits with better lighting. We were inspired to work on the issue back at our home!

This campsite was gorgeous. I wish we had more than one night to stay. It’s like a little oasis at the bottom of a canyon. There’s the river running through beautiful trees. There’s an orchard. There’s even an orchard where you can pick your own fruit. We saw mule deer and marmots around the camp and there’s a nice trail that leads to the visitor center. A word of advice, if you’re in an RV, you cannot run your generator unless you are in the RV only Loop C and it’s quite warm in the summertime. But truly the Area is just beautiful.

Great campground. Clean bathrooms with sinks and flush toilets. Lots of wildlife. Walking distance to trailheads for hiking. Only downside - NO SHOWERS. If you want a shower, you'll have to pay for one at the Chuck Wagon in Torrey ($13 per person for 10 minutes as of June 2024).

The campground is spacious with shade. However, more than half of the park was closed for summer 2024. would appreciate the NPS to provide those update/alert on recreation.gov.

The campground was nice with large spaces and clean bathrooms. Highly recommend doing the Cohab Canyon Trail out of the campground up to the North Overlook. This was a really cool hike with a great view. We participated in the ranger program the evening we stayed there and our kids really enjoyed it. Overall a great stay.
