Cant beat the views and accessibility to shuttles. All around excellent

Beautiful campground, spectacular backdrop, clean facilities, easy walk to visitors center and park busses.

Very nice and clean. My issues with the campground were my own. My tent was not free standing (semi-freestanding) and the earth at each site looked really nice but was as hard as a rock. I couldn't set up my tent at all, I had to sleep in my vehicle. Bathrooms were really nice. A lot of people. I would gladly go back again!

Great campground, great sites, clean bathrooms, the only negative is there needs to be showers somewhere.

Other than that one deer that chewed and made holes on our tents window screen, everything else is good lots of shade and close proximity to restrooms. The deers here must be really hungry!

The location was great. Easy to access, easy to find my spot despite being well beyond daylight. The only unfortunate part was that the folks camping across from me had an untold amount of lights. Streaming on their tents, headlamps, and high-beam electric lanterns (along with a large bonfire which of course would've been fine on its own). Despite this, my spot was fantastic and the views of the looming formations and dark night sky were incredible, can only imagine how much more I could've seen if they hadn't been producing their own town's worth of light polution!

Waking up here is amazing! Not only are you surrounded by breathtaking scenery, but the deer come through the campground to peacefully graze throughout the day. The Visitors Center is a short walking distance away, as is Zion Outfitters where you can take a hot shower and wash/dry laundry. The shuttles can be accessed at the Visitor Center.

Beautiful canyon, not much space between campsites. Tent surfaces are gravel. Be prepared.

Very good overall due to excellent location within the park and great views from every site. Some downsides we expected: no showers and very little shade available. Unexpected downside was lack of any available electric outlets in the bathrooms. We flew to zion with backpacking equipment and had to crank up our rental car to charge our phones. My garmin died, which I really could have used on hikes in the park.

Great experience in a gorgeous spot! The rock views were beautiful, the bathrooms were clean and the water was easy to access.
I do wish there were some type of shower available because desert hiking and no showers isn't my favorite thing. The week we visited, the pay showers in nearby Springdale were out of order.

Hot and dusty as to be expected in the canyon, but overall a nice campground with some shade. Restrooms were plenty and clean. Lots of great hikes to take, and the shuttles are frequent and reliable. Get out early to beat the heat in the summer!

Loved it, loved it, loved it!
@YanaK238 · Camped on Aug 15, 2021 at Campsite #D38
It was nice and clean, people were nice and showed us where to go. The space was nice and open as well. Amenities were close by and the view was beautiful
@StevenS912 · Camped on Jul 29, 2021 at Campsite #D38
Everything went well with the stay. The only drawback was the light created by the other campers that kept taking night time photos, when the clouds cleared, that much more difficult. No other issues. Thanks.

I’m gonna tell it to you straight. Zion is absolutely beautiful, the park is breathtaking. I’ve been too a good handful of parks and can tell you Zion is my least favorite. It not only is extremely commercialized but ridiculously crowded given the size of this park, it cannot accommodate the amount of people they let it in. Everything costs money, the town of Springdale located right before the entrance of Zion takes EVERY opportunity to make a buck. It honestly disgusts me. Overall not a great experience and would HIGHLY recommend you save some money and go enjoy a park that hasn’t been ruined by capitalism.
@KenL237 · Camped on May 15, 2021 at Campsite #D38
Campground was clean and campers quiet and well behaved. The men's restroom only had one of two faucets working which caused backup and crowding. The infrastructure drawback is no showers or water spigots aside from a faucet and basin at the restrooms. Otherwisw, a very pleasant stay with wonderful scenery.

Very clean and great being inside Zion. Beautiful views when you stay!
