Very nice. Only wish cell service was better. Would have stayed a lot longer. Bathrooms were a mess and toilets plugged but thats on those rude people that do not have respect for the facilities.

Great views, decent campground. Challenge: host with aggressive dogs.

Well maintained facilities with easy access.

This is a relaxing, enjoyable location. There is road noise from the freeway, but we did not find it to be an issue. There is good trail access for hikers and bikers. There are many unshaded locations and the grounds are primarily pavement or sand/gravel. The facilities are well kept. It was a fantastic stop for a couple nights on our way through.
@RachelA5531631 · Camped on Sep 27, 2025 at Campsite #19
This is a convenient location, located off the freeway, but the noise isn't too bad as the campsites are somewhat away from the road. The bathrooms are basic but functional.

It was 103 degrees when we arrived and the campground was deserted with the exception of one other traveler the circled the grounds and left. We were pleasantly surprised that the restrooms were air conditioned. Even still we decided to depart for a cooler location and looked upon the campground fee as a donation since it was nonrefundable.

Fee to reserve ahead of time was too high. Campground was fine. Strong winds broke my tent poles. I am not sure if the wind is typical.
@DANIELL7634709 · Camped on Sep 12, 2025 at Campsite #69
Bathroom facilities are a bit rough but the views are outstanding.
@ChrisW1509692 · Camped on Sep 8, 2025 at Campsite #69
Nice spot just off the road with plenty of spots in a cool looking area. Main complaint is that most of them are reservation only, and signal is poor in that spot, so its best to plan ahead if you want to stay. Keep in mind these are all asphalt so it feels a little more like parking than camping.
@DanielG6266400 · Camped on Sep 7, 2025 at Campsite #24
Clean areas and bathrooms! Easy to find quiet and beautiful! We enjoyed our stay.
@LuciaOF998ABD6 · Camped on Sep 5, 2025 at Campsite #92
Absolutely stunning campground, we arrived under a blanket of stars and woke up to stunning views of the river snaking through the desert mountains. Highly recommend!
@WilliamL145693 · Camped on Aug 13, 2025 at Campsite #25
This is a great stop over place for a longer trip. Or maybe a place to stay a few days during the spring or fall. Summer months most likely will be too hot for most people.
@AmyN4832781 · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #36
This campsite is awesome! The shade and table are really helpful as we didnt have to worry about packing any chairs. I recommend not going during June for the heat, but the bathrooms had AC which was very helpful. Such a beautiful campground. The views of the cliffs and the trail down to the river were picturesque. We were basically the only campers in the whole place so the desert was a bit eerie, but its nice being so close to the highway! Would come back againmaybe in the fall!

A quick stop off I-15 in Arizona. This campground was fairly vacant, but we had two others in our loop the night we stayed. I made a reservation online beforehand, but could have saved the $8 fee had I just risked the first-come first-served. We couldn't find a place to fill water, but we did a makeshift bottle fill from the bathroom sink. No water spigots were indicated on the campground map, thank goodness we were mostly prepared.
@josephs9140090 · Camped on May 28, 2025 at Campsite #5
I have stayed here several times in the past. The grounds and the restrooms were always clean, and I felt like it was a safe and comfortable campground. However, on this visit the bathrooms were less clean than before, but it is still a nice campground overall.
@MichelleH23163 · Camped on May 10, 2025 at Campsite #4
This campground is a fantastic hidden gem just outside of St. George. All of the campgrounds in and around St. George were full over Mother's Day weekend-this was one was almost empty! Several great hikes leave right from the campground. Easy access to the river. I was worried there would be a lot of interstate road noise, but there was almost none. Some of the sites were pretty small, but there were plenty to choose from in the middle that would have given more space. Bathrooms were very clean.
@EdithMF5C13530 · Camped on May 9, 2025 at Campsite #92
Beautiful and peaceful place to camp. Very relaxing.
@DebbiM7CDF4EBC · Camped on May 7, 2025 at Campsite #19
A beautiful campground tucked against the red hills and away from I15. Inexpensive and wonderful experience.
@MartinK4638996 · Camped on Apr 27, 2025 at Campsite #61
Beautiful camp ground with very clean restrooms and easy to use sites. Nice hiking trails too
@StephanieE0AD8 · Camped on Apr 26, 2025 at Campsite #38
We will definitely be back! Our reservation process was easy. Our site was very level, we didn't even unhook our trailer for our 2 night stay. We enjoyed the hiking trails and even waded in the river, our dogs were ecstatic getting to play in the river! The bathrooms were very clean. We met Chris the Ranger and had a very nice visit with him, super nice guy and very knowledgeable about so many things!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
