Spent 1 night in February. It was very cold but the restrooms were nicely heated.Not much else to say other than the campground is pretty much empty and quiet at this time of year.

We were lucky to get a last minute reservation to stay at Fruita campground for the star festival (which was unfortunately rained out). The campground is in a beautiful area, is clean and close to some hiking. I have a 24 foot RV and it was easy to get in and out. Highly recommend.
Excellent

The campsite is terrific good. Clean and convenient and quiet. Deer family give this site more interesting things especially to kids. I would give this campsite more than five stars if the scenic drive keeps open.

Nice well kept campground with lots of shade trees. The grounds are irrigated from the nearby river which brings lots of deer in the evening and early morning. The song birds in the trees might wake you up early!

Very nice tenting campground. It was the perfect place for our family group with young children. There are places to walk to or hike to right from the campground and many ways to enjoy nature. It was quiet and family friendly.

Very nice location and facilities. Beautiful setting. The apple pie from the Gifford House was a bonus. Quick access to the Cohab Trail was very handy.

Lovely camp spot- it was quiet, the bathrooms were super clean and having the Gifford House right next store was an incredible perk. We hiked the Cohab Canyon Trail right from the campground with our two 5 year olds and 10 year old. We hope to return sometime in the fall to truly experience Capitol Reef and its beautiful orchards.

The campground has a great view. the bathroom was super clean and always had a heater on which was a big plus. Campsite is spacey. The only thing we didnt like was too much poop on the grass area.
@Alexander002F9 · Camped on May 28, 2022 at Campsite #9
3rd time staying at this campground, and will always come back! Peaceful, beautiful and incredible views surrounding.
@RobertM1452522 · Camped on May 21, 2022 at Campsite #9
Cozy campground with minimal services, but very helpful and friendly staff who care deeply about the park. Striking landscapes with a very interesting history. Don't miss the sticky buns.

Camping at this campground was a good choice for getting around. Plenty of mule deer and turkey in the camp ground and surrounding orchards. Easy walk to orchards and store for excellent pies.
Rained that night and the next day so didn’t get to hike the trails. Would definitely visit again?
