I loved it! I did leave a day early because there was a group of load, unruly children that were very close to me. They should have booked one of the group sites. The campground host let it continue. Besides that I would highly recommend it!

This site would have been better for an RV. Ground was uneven and no actual tent pad. My husband enjoyed the stream behind the campground and we both really enjoyed the pies. I had cherry and he chose strawberry rhubarb. They were fantastic. We had a cinnamon roll as well, which was ok.

Camp hosts Bubba and his sidekick were very nice. The campground is very neat and peaceful. Deer roam freely though the sites. Recently re-paved asphalt was a bit sticky, but it was hot while we were there. Trees provide ample shade. Sites are close together but large enough for side by side parking.

Very nice campground , need to re evaluate generator rules. They stopped ability for loop A&B to use generators, need to reinstate very limited generator use.

Nice campsites mostly well-spaced from one another, clean washrooms, and great views of the surrounding red-rock mountains.

This was our favorite campground of our trip. Fruita is surrounded by the Fremont River, apple orchards, a horse pasture and right on the scenic drive through the park. We loved the peacefulness. It was just great!

This park is a good balance of hiking trails in areas with crowds and areas where you can be 40 miles from the nearest person. If you are looking for areas away from the crowds the rangers will provide information about the other parts of the park besides the main valley with the orchard and old store.

This is my favorite campsite at at any of the national or state parks in Utah
@StacyT5D26A6E3 · Camped on Mar 13, 2022 at Campsite #19
