Very close to the visitor center, signboard and the park shuttles. The view from the campground is amazing being one of the most accessible national parks

Watchman is a beautiful and well-kept campground. It remains calm and peaceful despite how busy Zion gets. The location is close to the visitors center and shuttle bus. Its an easy walk into town with a small shopping center at the exit.

Perfect location for campground in Zion behind the visitor center. Easy access to the shuttles. Clean bathrooms. Beautiful views of the mountains.

Great campground at least in winter. Easy access to visitor center and the pedestrian bike connection across the river.

We were disappointed with the space locations, all the sites were very close to each other and had no clean base except dirt in the campsite which was very dusty and annoying.

Great place next to the river w/ great views. Very friendly campground host welcoming us and providing us w/ all the relevant information despite our late arrival. Campground is well maintained w/ clean restrooms. Campground is located close to shops and restaurants in Springdale on the other side of the river and is very close to the visitor center and the park shuttle bus stop. If you can' make it to Angels Landing (permit required) hike at least to Scout Lookout and enjoy the marvelous views into the Park. We love to come back. Greetings from Germany.

Nicht ganz so schn wieder 55er Platz eine Nacht zuvor da nicht direkt am Fluss - dennoch ist der Campingplatz als solches wunderschn und die Lage perfekt fr Tourem im Zion :) WC's sauber, duschen kann ich nicht beurteilen da nicht genutzt.

After being packed and then overpacked onto the canyon shuttle bus, I and others came home sick. There needs to be a reasonable social distance somewhere between Covid restrictions and overpacking, to the point of being pressed into contacting everyone around you and no fresh air circulating. Not to mention being safe in case of accident. The park(s) need to review the buss occupancy policy.

Very nice campground, rangers were very helpful and friendly.

The views from the campground were terrific. My 50' foot setup (truck with trailer) fit very nicely in Site 40, Loop B. There was a power pedestal at the site with water available at the bathrooms. There is a dump station near the entrance that can serve one incoming and one outgoing camper at the same time. Potable water is also available right before the dump station for incoming campers or right after for outgoing. The night sky was amazing and the only light "pollution" was from the moon. There is a laundry facility in the town as well as a grocery store and a hardware store. All needs were easily met. Coyotes called nearby in the evening so keep a close eye on pets. A herd of mule deer also seemed to be full-time residents. AT&T had excellent coverage. I could stream Roku shows as well as video calls and work from my laptop in the trailer.

Loved the campground. Plenty of space. Nice being so close to busses that you can walk.
@DanielB4603573 · Camped on May 26, 2022 at Campsite #B40
Quiet, convienient and spacy. We had a space without any shade, but I would gladly take this site any day of the year. Love this campground
@TimothyW265968 · Camped on Mar 28, 2022 at Campsite #B40
Clean. Shaded with trees. Campsites spread out a bit. Very easy walking access to visitors center and shuttles.
@KendraV961 · Camped on Jan 14, 2022 at Campsite #B40
Very clean and great camping spot right in the heart of Zion National Park! The only thing I'd note (this was probably due to off-season) but it'd be nice to have a pass to show to get through the gate without having to wait in line once you've paid your park pass and are staying in the campground.
