We really liked this campground. Very clean bathrooms and easy access to water. Our site was pretty sunny...others were better. Would recommend a sunshade and stake your tent down very well. The canyon gets quite windy. Beautiful park!

My stay at Watchman exceeded my expectations. The campground was clean and unbelievably quiet. I would definitely come back to Watchman.

Very pleased with the Watchman Campground. It is within walking distance to the visitor center, shuttle, and more importantly several trails. One key to visiting Zion is avoiding the need to park in the visitor center lot. Ranger Denise Sears provided excellent information on what to see and do as she checked us into our site. The campground is beautiful with rock formations in every direction. Restrooms were in good order and included an exterior dish wash station. Drinking water spigots also in good order. Our only complaint (very minor) was the high campsite density which means your neighbors are very close, but this didn't really impact us other than overhearing other's conversations. This 'closeness' is a fair trade-off to maximize the number of campers that can enjoy the park. Very quiet at night. If we visit again, we will definitely try to get a site at Watchman.

I really liked the ranger program (it was about animals) and the shuttle system. The toilets were clean and nice and also the campground was very clean. I also liked the option to leave good stuff I don't use any more for others to pick up. Less waste for everyone.

Very clean sites and feel a warm place for my family camping

The campground was set up well and sites clearly marked. We had an excellent spot with some shade and a great view of The Watchman. Bathhouse was fine. Easy access to the shuttles into Zion, as well as walking into town for food, rentals, etc. The campground is a great location for accessing all you might need during your trip! You can even walk to the river and cool off there on a hot afternoon. Our only complaint is that quiet hours were not enforced and a large group played music and partied late into the evening one night. Otherwise, it was wonderful and we'd happily stay there again!

Clean bathrooms. Camp host was very nice. Sites were not on top of each other. The campground was walking distance to the visitor center, stores, outfitters, etc.

Great place to camp. But I’ll be more careful in my site choice next time to have more shade.

Nice location, quite but convenient. Very close to the Shuttle.
Nice proximity to the mountains, over which the light of sunrises and sunsets was spectacular!

Gorgeous campground with amazing amenities right outside the park. Great brewery and shops within walking distance. Clean bathrooms, great walking and biking paths. I recommend bringing or renting an ebike to ride to All the way to the narrows and into town. Love this campground.

Amazing proximity for accessing the highlights of Zion canyon. Decent shade considering the environment and wonderful facilities. Having Springdale writhing a 5 minute walk makes this campground a no brainer to book
