We enjoyed our stay in the Fruita campground. My only feedback is that the restrooms were not open in the C loop where we were staying.

Campsite was marked with our reservation. Bathrooms were pretty clean. Dan, the campground host was a very friendly and nice person. He greeted us the evening that we arrived. And I could tell immediately that he had a gentle, friendly spirit. He was truly interested in us having a good experience in the campground. Weather was perfect - thank you Lord!. Loved the cinnamon rolls from the Gifford House. Our only concern was the sticky leaf bud scales that fell off of the cottonwood trees. They were awful. The sticky stuff could be used for construction glue. I swept off the area near our trailer 3-5 times a day to minimize the stuff getting tracked into our camper. We were not able to use the picnic table because we could not get the stuff adequately cleaned off the table or benches. I would recommend an afternoon power wash of the tables affected by this nuisance.

I hate to recommend this place because it’s a gem but absolutely stay here if you can get a spot! We plan to come back every year!

Quite, small campground. Had deer sniffing at the tent in the morning. One of our favorite campgrounds in Utah. The park in really in the middle of nowhere. No concessions. Make sure that you have plenty of food, water and ice before arriving at the park.

Great, quiet campground close to the pies! The amphitheater is also a short walk. The ranger programs were great.

Well maintain campground! Close to the trails we want to hike.

Perfect weather, clean campground!

Not much room to pitch a tent other than on the driveway, but a great spot otherwise. It is right by the bathrooms, the apple orchard a nice view to wake up in the morning or for star gazing at night plus a small meadow where deer graze. The campgrounds are well maintained. I was in loop C which seems is more for campers and RVs which might explain why there wasn'tmuch room for a tent--I had a tent.

Great pie, views of nature including the deer, in one of my favorite National Parks. The best hike is right across the road!
@NicholasM966 · Camped on Jul 20, 2021 at Campsite #65
Good clean fun.

This place is a total gem. A great oasis in the desert.
@MelissaH475 · Camped on Jun 27, 2021 at Campsite #65
Such a fun place! Really enjoyed playing in the river and seeing all of the deer. The fruit pies and cinnamon buns at Gifford House were fun too.

Decent. Open area. Great hosts

Fruita is one of the more spacious campgrounds at a National Park. Beautiful setting and easy access to trails.
@JohnW706 · Camped on Mar 16, 2021 at Campsite #65
Clean facilities and beautiful scenery! Lot to do. Will definitely come back here again!
