Ive been camping for months and got our spit through Campscanner it was quiet, clean, spacious and spectacular. Definitely on my top 3 ever.

I wish the RV sites had water hook-ups. Showers inside the campground would also be a huge benefit.

Short version, the campgrounds are great! Quiet low key with families with well behaved kids having fun. Get in Zion park and things can get hectic. The park personnel gave good advice to get on the shuttles early so the buss and trails aren't crowded. Then relax in the campground in the second half of the day, good advice! My only wishes would be ......that there was a water supply at each camp site. Many RV campers have a mobile dump tank that you can empty your gray water tank but you have to unhook to refill your fresh water tank for showers or cleaning.

The campsite was in a perfect place to either grab the shuttle from the visitor center or start biking through the park. Clean and beautiful site.

The view! Incredible. Clean restrooms, clean water. Loved the family of deer wandering through our campsite. Wonderful spot.

I enjoyed my recent visit to Zion NP camping at Watchman campground. The location is perfect for accessing several trails and also the visitor center where you can pick up the shuttle to go elsewhere in the park. They have flush toilets and an outdoor sink to do dishes. No showers but that was ok. The campsites are close together and close to the road but the noise level was not bad. I was car camping and there was plenty of space between sites.
Major Issues

Watchman Campground, Loop A, was ideal for our stay. Close walk to the amphitheater for an evening Ranger-led program. Site was clean, level and perfect to admire stars and Watchman at night.Campground was also close to the Visitor Center, Pa'rus and Watchman trails. Sites were fully occupied, so plan early and/or set a notification to alert you when sites become available. Have fun!
Some Coverage

This was our favourite RV Park! We were in A19 with a backdrop of the Watchman. And even though it only has electric hook ups, it wasn't an issue as there are water and dump stations just outside the camping area. It was close the visitor centre and just over the bridge from town. The only downside is that there is not security and upon late return one evening there was a chancer in our spot. I had to wake them but lucky enough they didn't argued and moved. But its not something you want when returning late

The campsite was great. It was a close walk to the visitor center and amphitheater.

Thank goodness you have power there! It was so hot, I can't imagine camping in an RV without AC.Showers would be a nice addition if you can swing it.Maybe a reminder for people to turn out (or at least just use the minimal lights) when they are inside for the night. One camper had really bright lights on and they weren't outside, which made enjoying the 'dark skies' more difficult. Maybe a time for lights to be off? It wouldn't have bothered me if they had been sitting outside--they should be able to enjoy their site.

Excellent view from our site. Peaceful with an amazing view. Location to the bathroom was perfect. The river walk to Springdale was easily accessible. Only downside is that the trees were only on one side of the side so we were in the blazing sun all afternoon/evening. I would still stay here over and over again though. Cant recommend The Watchman enough (unless you want full hook up sites with fancy amenities).

Site A19 was great. Great views, easy walk to the shuttle and the brewery.

Wir hatten einen schnen, ruhigen und zugleich idyllischen Stellplatz. Der Campground war gepflegt. Gute Nhe zum Shuttle-Bus.

Loop A was perfect for our stay. Beautiful views. Easy walking distance to visitors center, shuttle, outfitters, hiking and restaurants! Level sites. Definitely recommend!

Every spring and fall when we camp here we have such a great experience. The campground is clean, there is lots of tree cover. The fall the trees will be bare but will offer an excellent view of the surrounding mountains in the valley. The orange and reds really pop out at sunrise and sunset. The only thing I wish they’d install is a couple of showers at the restroom facilities to lessen the dump station runs. Other than that this campground is great. The visitor center and tram is a short walk away. Right outside the park across the bridge is the Zion Canyon Brew pub, they have a great selection of microbrews which is refreshing after a long days hike. They also sell your growlers which you can get refills on an take your 64oz beer back to your campsite for $15. The tram service is great and will allow you to mount bicycles on the front if you are wanting to ride. The trams outside the park gate is great for getting free rides to restaurants, shops, or back to your hotel if you are staying in one. I’ve also used the tram to drop me off at the laundry mat to get my family ready for our next destination. I love to stay at Watchman. The camping spots are spaced enough apart that you don’t hear small talk of other campers. Its no surprise that since COVID and the spike in popularity of owning a trailer that you have to book 6 months in advance to get your spot. It is well worth it though. I recommend April and October camping here for wildflower blooms and leaves changing colors. The hiking weather is absolutely perfect with a slight chill in the morning. I wish every national park would try to model Zion.

Beautiful scenery, very convenient to the shuttle, clean restrooms, and convenient to Springdale.

Amazing place. We booked a campsite with electric hook up on A loop. The campsite staff was very nice and courteous. The camp site and facilities were clean and well kept. We woke up to the Watchman and as being on the national park, we were close to the shuttles and visitor center and many nearby hikes. Highly recommended!
@maryw3172749 · Camped on Nov 22, 2022 at Campsite #A19
Great campground in a wonderful setting! Wish they had showers, especially since the sites dont have water hookups. But we made it work would stay there again in a heartbeat.
@GerritJaFE5145 · Camped on Jun 22, 2022 at Campsite #A19
Beautiful camping spot with magnificent views on the surrounding mountains. Toilets were clean. Quiet camping in the evening. Walking distance to the central facilities.
@charlesd633372 · Camped on Jun 20, 2022 at Campsite #A19
I was expecting the campground to be as crowded as the park itself. However, we were very pleasantly surprised by the "general feel" of the campground, which was much more spacious and pretty than we were expecting.

Quiet and nice place but no shower

The best sites out of all our 9 day Utah road-trip! Love Watchman and cant wait to come back!
@JosephRA603047 · Camped on Apr 10, 2022 at Campsite #A19
Absolutely gorgeous scenery. We are not avid hikers and did the emerald pools hike to the lower, middle and upper pools and it was a nice hike. Also did the Zion Jeep tour, Mesa Vista group, and loved it, views were incredible and we highly recommend it.
