Great campground, lots of shade. Campsites are a little close. Water has lots of minerals, so recommend filtering it before using it. Very friendly rangers and staff. Loved the sweets at Gifford house. We came in early June and it rained off and on for most of the day. It was a perfect lazy day to spend in the orchards, visitor center and Gifford house. Will come back to see more of the park.

Great stay here! Such a nice place. Make sure to get pies (fresh every day) from the Gifford House. Not the cheapest but worth it. They have homemade ice cream too. Staying directly in the National Park is a joy, and it was great to access everything so directly.

Fruita Campground was an oasis in the high desert. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the campground. Such a relaxing place with the trees and the creek near by. Got to say, definitely go for the pies ... they are great!

Great experience to camp inside of Capital Reef!! This a beautiful campground surrounded by the active orchards of Fruita. We Camped in a 39 foot motorhome. The sites are paved and there is a lot of space between sites. No hookups but we took advantage of morning and even generator hours. There are bathrooms and drinking water but there are no showers in the park. Its great to hike straight from campsite.

The campground is amazing. It is so peaceful, there are a lot of hikes that start from the campground. The bakery is amazing and we could walk to the petroglyphs and the schoolhouse. We met great people there and look forward to staying again. We have a 43ft fifth wheel and had no problem fitting. We were in loop C. It is amazing there.

Perfect location and large pitches.
@JenniferK63850 · Camped on Mar 30, 2023 at Campsite #58
Great campground with plenty of space and flat ground for our tent. Good mix of RVs and tent campers, and lots of room for the kids to run around. My only complaint is that the restroom in loop C was closed the whole time we were there, so we had to walk to loop B.

The very morning we were supposed to pull up stakes and head to Fruita, my wife tested positive for COVID. I tried to find a way to cancel my reservation and even tried calling, but could not do it. I have cancelled reservations on line before, but never on the day the reservation was supposed to start. My guess is that something changes on the web site once we are into the period the reservation applies to. I wish I could have cancelled and made the space available to someone, but I could not (it is not about the money, but about someone else having an opportunity).

Beautiful campground, I woke up to 4 deer grazing outside my window with a view of the park.

My campsite was a little muddy, and the flies were atrocious at times. And, do were really need to use our car alarm at a campground? There is always that one person that needs to constantly retrieve something from their car, slam the car door numerous times, and then set their alarm again and again. RV's should be limited to 19 feet in length. If you need to bring you entire house to the woods, you should probably just say home. Generators should not be allowed period. The presentations at the amphitheater were excellent.

Fruita Campground is nicely laid out, mostly convenient to the restrooms (we had to walk between sites to get there without walking a long loop), and managed to enforce generator quiet hours, and shady. I usually stay in wild, primitive campsites, but I'd stay here again.

Beautiful campground in a beautiful setting. The generator policy should be reviewed. It was 95+ degrees and generator hours are 8-10am and 6-8pm. There needs to be a provision for temperature. Our 5th wheel was 95+ degrees inside. We travel with a cat and a dog. Unbearable! Several senior citizens were unhappy as they felt it was almost a medical problem. I would not re-visit this park in any summer months unless this policy is amended.
@DebraW8542591 · Camped on Jun 27, 2022 at Campsite #58
We like this campground. Smooth, paved campsites. Clean bathrooms. Beautiful views from our campsite and in the entire park. Daily ranger talks in the Ampitheater.

Loop C had spacious campsites and we were able to set up our tent underneath a tree for partial shade. The weather was very nice in mid-May. Deer wander through the campground in the mornings and evenings. Be careful on the roads to the campground as we saw marmots crossing them a couple of times. There were lots of birds in the campground, especially bright yellow and black orioles. I would have rated the campground a 5 but for the bath house - it's showing some age and should probably be replaced/updated soon. Nevertheless, this is a pretty special campground in Capitol Reef.

Very nice campground with may large trees. Great place to camp right within the park to minimize the driving. Several hiking trials are close to the park.No power at the campground so generator noise can be annoying during the 4 hours a day they are allowed. They do not seem to police the type or noise of generators. So if you are next to the guy with the 5,000 watt industrial generator then its rather unpleasant. The quiet RV generators are OK because of the spacing between sites.Restrooms are well maintained and clean.General park maintenance is excellent.

Well run campground. Nice sites and clean restrooms.

Fruita campground is always wonderful.
@LindaH595 · Camped on Oct 26, 2021 at Campsite #58
Highly recommend the Geology Talk at 3 PM at the Amphitheater! Really helps to have a better understanding of the area. And don't feel badly if you hit the Bakery every day! We did!
@MichaelZ319 · Camped on Jul 27, 2021 at Campsite #58
Clean park. Campground hosts very helpful and accommodating. Dump station could use updating.

The campground is clean, grassy and shaded with trees—an oasis in the desert.
