Hiking

The Orchards at Kolob RV Resort

35 RV Sites

The Orchards at Kolob RV Resort in New Harmony, UT, offers 35 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 60 feet. Sites come in two categories, back-in 20/30/50-amp and pull-thru 20/30/50-amp, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with a picnic table. Every site takes all three amp services. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, and WiFi cover the essentials, and the resort is family-owned and small enough to feel that way. Pets are welcome, with a dog park, and there's a playground for kids. The resort sits about three miles from the Kolob Canyons entrance to Zion National Park — the park's most remote and least visited section, where the trails stay quiet and the shuttle system never enters the picture. Hiking is the main event. New Harmony sits in the high country of southwestern Utah, off I-15 north of St. George, at the northwest corner of Zion. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Spring and fall are the best hiking months in Kolob and the busiest for the resort, so reserve ahead.

Cedar City RV Resort

49 RV Sites, 15 Cabins, 5 Tent Sites

Cedar City RV Resort sits just off Interstate 15 on North Main Street in Cedar City, Utah, offering 49 RV sites, 15 cabins, and five tent sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups and rigs accepted up to 100 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Five tiered categories cover standard, premium, and deluxe back-ins and pull-throughs, with an outdoor pool and snack bar. Forty-nine sites span standard 30/20-amp pull-throughs, premium 30/20-amp back-ins and pull-throughs, premium 50/30/20-amp pull-throughs, and deluxe 50/30/20-amp back-ins, all carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 100 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Fifteen cabins and five tent sites round out the range. A laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, firewood, and site WiFi handle the practical side. No wristbands are required for amenities, and each space rental includes six guests. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a snack bar, pavilion, playground, walking trails, and dog park across the grounds. Hiking, corn hole, horseshoes, and live music fill out the season. Pets are welcome. Cedar City sits at the threshold of southern Utah's densest concentration of park landscapes — Zion, Bryce Canyon, Cedar Breaks National Monument, and the Grand Staircase-Escalante corridor are all accessible from here, and I-15 makes the resort immediately reachable from Las Vegas to the south or Salt Lake City to the north. Spring and fall are peak for the park circuit. Reserve well ahead.

Cedar Canyon Retreat

20 RV Sites

Cedar Canyon Retreat sits five miles up Cedar Canyon from Cedar City, Utah, on the Highway 14 scenic byway, offering 20 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and an outdoor pool. Sites carry water, sewer, and electric with fire pits and picnic tables in a heavily wooded high-elevation canyon. Twenty sites carry full hookups on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, with accessible sites available and fire pits and picnic tables throughout. One practical caveat worth reading before you book: this is a small, heavily wooded park, and while the layout is big-rig friendly, guests with a trailer or motorhome over 36 feet should review the resort's big-rig guidance in advance. A general store, restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a recreation center, community fire pit, and ping pong for other hours. Hiking and biking run from the property into the canyon terrain. The cedar and pine forest and the cool altitude make this a genuinely different environment from the desert floor below — which is much of the point. Pets are welcome. Highway 14 is one of Utah's designated scenic byways, connecting the Great Basin valley at Cedar City with the high plateau country around Cedar Breaks. The canyon's red rock formations sit within easy reach, and southern Utah's national park circuit is accessible from here. The retreat closes for winter, typically November 1 through March 15, to avoid snow and mud. The open season runs spring through fall, with summer heat in the valley below driving demand for the canyon's cooler elevation. Reserve ahead for summer weekends.

Zion White Bison Glamping & RV Resort

On Utah Highway 9 in Virgin, Utah—15 minutes west of Zion National Park's South Entrance in Washington County where the Mojave Desert's red-sandstone canyon country creates the most visually dramatic gateway corridor to one of the most visited national parks in the United States—Zion White Bison Glamping and RV Resort, recognized as one of the top five glamping resorts in the country, offers covered wagons, tipis, cliff dwellings, cabins, and full hookup RV pads—each with a private BBQ grill and fire pit—alongside community pools, pickleball courts, a catch-and-release fishing pond, a white bison sanctuary on the property, and the resort's exclusive shuttle service into Springdale at the Zion South Entrance, creating the Zion-access experience whose resort-quality infrastructure and dramatic canyon setting produce the combination of luxury, wildlife, and national park proximity that no campground alternative within the Zion corridor can replicate. The bison are white. The canyon walls are red. The park is 15 minutes away. Covered wagons, tipis, and cliff dwellings—each with two comfortable queen beds or a single king, a private bath, central heating and cooling, a kitchenette with cookware, microwave, refrigerator, and a two-burner cooktop, and a private BBQ grill and fire pit—provide the distinctive glamping accommodations that have made Zion White Bison a top-five ranked glamping resort in the country. Full hookup RV pads with water, sewer, and electric hookups at every position serve the self-contained traveler with the infrastructure that a serious RV stay requires. Community pools, pickleball courts, and the catch-and-release fishing pond create the on-property recreation that occupies the afternoon hours between the morning Zion hike and the sunset dinner in Springdale. The white bison sanctuary—three white and one brown bison and bison calves that guests can observe up close and learn about in the cultural and spiritual context that the Lakota and other Plains Nations' relationship with the white buffalo provides—creates the signature wildlife encounter that no other Zion-area campground offers. Virgin sits in Washington County on the North Fork of the Virgin River's lower watershed, in the Mojave Desert transition zone where the Colorado Plateau's uplift and the canyon-cutting erosion that carved Zion Canyon create the red-and-white Navajo Sandstone formations that make the Virgin River corridor one of the most geologically spectacular road-accessible landscapes in the American West. The UT-9 corridor from Hurricane to Springdale follows the Virgin River through the Zion-Mount Carmel tunnel's switchbacks and the canyon's narrowing walls to the national park's visitor center in a drive whose scenery rivals the park's interior. Zion National Park's Angels Landing trail, the Narrows slot canyon hike through the Virgin River, and the Emerald Pools trail system provide the defining Zion hiking experiences that the resort's shuttle to the Springdale park-and-ride delivers guests to without the parking challenge that the park's 4.5 million annual visitors create at the South Entrance. Bryce Canyon National Park, 90 miles northeast, and the Grand Canyon's North Rim, 100 miles southeast, provide the multi-park circuit accessible from a single Zion White Bison base camp. Zion White Bison operates year-round in Washington County's high-desert climate, where the spring and fall seasons from March through May and September through November provide the most comfortable Zion hiking temperatures and the thinner crowds that the summer peak's 4-million-visitor load creates. The winter months bring the snow dusting that the canyon's red sandstone makes photographic without the severe cold that higher-elevation Utah campgrounds experience. Reserve your covered wagon, tipi, or RV pad at Zion White Bison and let the white bison sanctuary, the resort shuttle, and the 15-minute drive to Zion National Park's South Entrance make the Virgin River canyon country the southwest adventure your Zion trip has been waiting for.

Jellystone Park™ Zion Utah

212 RV Sites, 11 Cabins, 2 Tent Sites

Jellystone Park Zion Utah in Hurricane offers 212 full-hookup RV sites, 11 cabins, and two tent sites at the western edge of red rock country, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet behind a gated entrance, open all year. Categories publish exact length — 45, 60, 70, and 75 feet — alongside a lazy river, water park, splash pad, and beach. Two hundred twelve sites run in 45-foot back-in, 45-foot waterfront back-in, 60-foot back-in, 60-foot pull-thru, 70-foot back-in, and 75-foot pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Publishing length by the foot removes every guess about fit, and the 45-foot waterfront tier is worth requesting. Eleven cabins and two tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The Water Zone runs weekends from mid-March to Memorial Day, daily through August 10, then weekends to late October, weather permitting. A lazy river, water park, and splash pad anchor the season, with an outdoor pool, hot tub, spa, lake, beach, and boat rentals besides. A jumping pillow, gem mining, gaga ball, sports courts, pickleball, basketball, ping pong, corn hole, golf cart rentals, a craft room, walking trails, playground, pavilion, dog park, and food trucks fill the rest. Sand Hollow State Park is close and Zion within day-trip range. Spring and fall are peak in southern Utah. Reserve well ahead.

Hidden Springs RV Resort - Utah

137 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites, 3 Apartments

Hidden Springs RV Resort in Ivins, Utah, offers 137 RV sites, three apartments, and 10 tent sites alongside the red cliffs of Snow Canyon State Park, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups and rigs accepted to 80 feet. A dedicated Sprinter van and small RV category joins back-in and pull-through sites, with a pool, hot tub, and spa in a dark-sky community. One hundred thirty-seven sites span back-in, pull-through, and Sprinter van/small RV categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 80 feet, with picnic tables. The dedicated small-rig category is a genuinely useful distinction — van travelers do not pay for space they cannot use. Three apartments and 10 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, restrooms, and a clubhouse handle the practical side. An outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and spa anchor the property, with a pond, community fire pit, walking trails, corn hole, and a playground filling the grounds. Ivins is a designated dark-sky community, which makes the stargazing here reliable rather than weather-dependent luck. Pets are welcome. The position is exceptional. Snow Canyon State Park's red cliffs sit immediately alongside, with Zion National Park and the wider St. George public lands within easy reach on Old Highway 91. Spring and fall are peak for southern Utah's park circuit. Reserve well ahead for March through May and September through October.

from $55/night

Panguitch Lake Resort

47 RV Sites

Panguitch Lake Resort in Panguitch, UT, offers 47 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, laid out as back-ins for rigs up to 45 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric, with WiFi across the property. The layout suits mid-size rigs rather than the largest coaches, and the 20-amp option means smaller trailers and vans are equally at home. Pets are welcome and there's a playground for kids. The resort's real draw is the water at its doorstep: a marina, boat docks, and boat rentals put guests directly onto Panguitch Lake, which is known for its trout fishing. Off-road riding is close by, and the surrounding country makes this a practical basecamp for national park travel. Panguitch Lake sits at roughly 8,200 feet on the southern shore, in the ponderosa and aspen country of the Markagunt Plateau — a cool, high-elevation counterpoint to the red rock most visitors associate with southern Utah, between Highway 89 and the routes toward Bryce Canyon and Cedar Breaks. Check the booking page for current rates and availability. The high elevation means a short, busy summer season and cold shoulder months, so confirm operating dates and reserve early for July and August.

Bryce Zion Campground

36 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 20 Tent Sites

Bryce Zion Campground in Glendale, UT, offers 36 full-hookup RV sites, 3 cabins, and 20 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 72 feet. Every RV site is a pull-thru, sorted by service: 30-amp water and electric, deluxe 30-amp water and electric, 30/50-amp water and electric, and full-hookup 30/50-amp. Sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. One booking note that matters: sites 39 through 49 require an RV at least 30 feet long, so smaller trailers should book elsewhere in the campground. Group sites hold up to 40 people. A bathhouse with showers and on-site dining are available, and pets are welcome. An outdoor pool and a playground handle the afternoons, and the dark Kane County sky is as good for stargazing as anywhere in the state. Glendale sits on US Highway 89 in the red rock canyon country between Bryce Canyon National Park to the north and Zion to the south — a genuine midpoint for anyone doing both. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Spring and fall, the best months for both parks, book earliest.

Dixie Forest RV Resort

29 RV Sites, 14 Cabins, 13 Tent Sites

Dixie Forest RV Resort in Panguitch, UT, offers 29 pull-thru RV sites, 14 cabins, and 13 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Every site is a pull-thru: 30-amp water-and-electric, 30/20-amp, 30/50-amp, and premium 30/50-amp with a patio. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue. The resort is rated big rig friendly, and nothing needs unhitching. On busy weekends wristbands are issued — worth asking about when you book. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a boutique shop, firewood, propane fills, a dump station, and personal mailboxes cover the rest. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a pavilion, a playground, sport courts, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, a beach, a lake, and walking trails fill the forested grounds, with swimming and hiking. Off-roading and a state park are nearby. Panguitch sits at 555 South Main on Highway 89 in Garfield County, below the pink limestone cliffs of the Paunsaugunt Plateau, with Bryce Canyon 26 miles east. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Premium patio pull-thrus book first.

Country Rose RV Park

48 RV Sites, 4 Tent Sites

Country Rose RV Park in Fredonia, Arizona, offers 48 full-hookup RV sites and four tent sites at the Arizona-Utah border, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Back-in and pull-through categories join a general store, laundry, dump station, community fire pit, and dog park. Forty-eight sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables. Two straightforward categories keep booking simple. Four tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. One practical note for planning: Arizona stays on Mountain Standard Time year-round, though Navajo lands observe daylight saving — worth checking your clock against your itinerary. A community fire pit, dog park, and picnicking fill the grounds, with a river nearby. The amenity set is deliberately spare, which keeps rates reasonable for a park whose guests are here for what surrounds it. Pets are welcome. Fredonia sits in Coconino County at the gateway to the Grand Canyon's North Rim — the quieter, higher, less-visited side of the canyon, roughly 80 miles south through the Kaibab Plateau's ancient ponderosa forest. Zion is close to the north, with Bryce, Coral Pink Sand Dunes, and the Vermilion Cliffs all within range. The North Rim season runs mid-May to mid-October, and that is the window. Reserve well ahead for summer.

Bryce Canyon RV Resort

45 RV Sites, 14 Cabins, 19 Tent Sites

Bryce Canyon RV Resort in Cannonville, UT, offers 45 full-hookup RV sites, 14 cabins, and 19 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 65 feet.

Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue.

An outdoor pool, a pavilion, a playground, basketball, horseshoes, a pond, and walking trails fill the grounds, with hiking, birding, and some of the darkest skies in the country for stargazing. Cannonville sits just off Scenic Byway 12 in Garfield County, at the doorstep of Bryce Canyon National Park and the Grand Staircase-Escalante country beyond. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Bryce's peak season books far ahead — reserve early for late spring through early fall.

Bryce Valley Ranch RV & Horse Park

69 RV Sites

Bryce Valley Ranch RV and Horse Park in Cannonville, Utah, offers 69 full-hookup RV sites just below the rim of Bryce Canyon National Park, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Categories publish their exact length — 35, 65, and 75 feet — with separate adult-only and family pull-through sections, plus horse pens for equestrian guests. Sixty-nine sites span back-in 30-amp at 35 feet, back-in 30/50-amp at 75 feet, and pull-thru 30/50-amp at 65 feet in both adult-only and family sections, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Publishing length by category removes all guesswork, and separating the adult-only and family sections is a thoughtful touch that serves both. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, firewood, horse pens, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. One safety note the park states plainly: a river runs at the back of the property and can flash flood from heavy rain at higher elevations. Walking trails, a community fire pit, playground, dog park, and pavilion fill the grounds, with hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and offroading nearby. The horse pens are the differentiator — this park serves riders who want to bring their own animals onto the Grand Staircase backcountry trails, which very few properties accommodate. The family operating it has two decades in this corner of canyon country. Spring and fall are peak at Bryce. Reserve well ahead.
