When it is the spring, you need to make sure all bathrooms are in working order. It was nice to see yall are building another campground and that one looks like it will be much nicer with what appeared to be roomier lots. I only hope when its open you close the old one for much needed renovations.

Watchman Campground checks all the boxes, easy access to all Zion has to offer and a great spot to spend the night. The facilities and site were in top condition. We were impressed!

You will be a winner with any site you choose. Springdale nearby is beautiful. We loved the views and the hiking trails.

Campground was clean and easy to access. Hardest part was making reservations. Wanted to stay more than one night and registered for notification of days before and after but every time we got an email they were taken within 5 minutes. Think there should be an order of 1st waiting instead of a dump of up to 150 people for an available site. We ended up staying longer outside the park. Also what was with all the closures in the other campground. Seems like a little early to close for winter and still LOTS of people at the park. Enjoyed the sites and riding the buses up the canyon. If you are going to do improvements would recommend adding electric to more sites.

The Location at the Virgin River for a refreshing bath was a highlight.

We were there after the Zion Floods early July 2021 and it was still a beautiful place to visit. Campground was in decent shape and I’m sure it’s an insanely gorgeous place to be if there were not flash floods the day before.

Zion is an incredible Park, Watchman is a very good campground and a great place to camp. Ashton Shelton the Ranger at Watchman entrance is a great employee. Ashton deserves a huge pay raise because the Park Service does not reward such a great person. Ashton is what makes Watchman such a great place to camp. One major suggestion is that when reserving a campsite, which is very difficult, a number of sites were vacant yet reserved. There needs to be a system that after 6:00 pm if a site is unoccupied the reservation is lost. I reserved my site back in November, if people don't keep their reservation, they should lose the right to reserve a site at another date or location. Lastly when Zion is completely full the rangers directing traffic at the entrance need to be trained on how to direct traffic. I had to argue with the ranger even though I had a campsite reservation. The rangers were giving opposing directions which were very confusing.

Our particular site was very short and we were lucky our rig was small enough to fit it.

Zion NP was beautiful. The campsite was as we expected, the price was fair.

Campsites are quite large and mostly level. Good spacing between sites. Good electrical connections. The whole campground is very well maintained. Be sure to fill your fresh water on the way to your campsite. Water spigots are at most restroom buildings (none at the bathrooms at the entrance to b loop, but one at the next bathroom building). It’s just a great campground if you want some privacy and space. If you want resort style camping with pools and restaurants right there, stay at one of the RV parks outside Zion. There are plenty.
