Great campground, site was a little un-level but not too bad.

This campground was fantastic. Great being in the park and the trail that you can go on from the campground was great with low crowds late September. Stayed in all the Utah NP campgrounds and this one was my favorite. Clean bathrooms. No cell service for us with T-mobile. Our site must have had a flash flood as sand was all over the driveway, but it was fine

Our stay at Fruita Campground was wonderful. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The landscape is beautiful, and the campground itself is very well maintained and scenic. We really enjoyed our time there and would love to come back again.

A lovely Cg, with a lot of shade and deers!

Great campsite and campground. Bathrooms were clean and in good repair. So many deer walking through and hanging out in the campground. They were fun to watch.

Great campground. Lots of shade , clean bathrooms with soap. The only problem was it was a little hard to know where to put the tent because they have sprinklers going.

Absolutely wonderful campground! There were so many deer grazing in the orchards right next to our site. The historical buildings are charming and the fruit pies at the Gifford house were amazing! The programs at the amphitheater were superb as well!

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.

Absolutely gorgeous spot. 13 deer grazing a few yards from my campsite, gorgeous morning and evening light on the canyon walls of CARE, campground host was helpful and friendly, weather was perfect, couldn't ask for more. Like most NPS campgrounds, there are no utilities at campsites, and no showers, but there were nice outhouses with running water, and as typical for NPS campgrounds, other campers were quiet and respectful. I'd definitely camp here again.

One of the best sites in the campground. No generators, no neighbors on one side, backed up to the orchard so you will see deer eating, grazing, playing and resting each day. If you can snag this one, dont think twice.

Loved our campsite here, we backed onto the orchard and had plenty of shade.

The ranger was very knowledgeable. We LOVED the fresh pies and cinnamon rolls. It was a very peaceful setting with the orchards, river, and deer.

We enjoyed our time in the Capitol Reef campground. Our double wide site was perfect for our tuck and trailer. We were backed up to a fruit orchard where deer would bed down - charming. No hookups at Fruita, however the bathrooms had flush toilets and a deep sink outside the building. There is a dump station as well as potable water to fill your rv tanks. It was great staying inside the park, and the price with our Access ♿ Pass can't be beat.

The park was just beautiful! The bathrooms were clean. The hikes were fantastic, the mule deer were awesome & the pies, well, the pies were da bomb! It was guilt free because the hikes! It was our first time there so it was a great surprise! The whole package!

Good campground experience. Still early season (just before) so outside water wasnt on but the campsite was nice. The Fruita valley was lovely.

This camp ground is perfect and the park itself is amazing!
