10 Top-Rated Campgrounds in Utah
Welcome to “The Greatest Snow on Earth” – Utah’s paradise for all outdoor enthusiasts! As host of the 2002 Winter Olympics, Park City knows how to entertain winter fun seekers. Snowboarders and skiers head for miles of spectacular slopes with deep fluffy powder and breathtaking mountain views. The Olympic Park provides family-friendly ski programs, rides and shows. Alta, Sundance, Snowbird and Brighton are other popular destinations for cross country and Alpine skiers. Those alluring snowy slopes turn to rolling wildflower fields in the summer. Golfing, fishing, horseback riding and water sports replace chilly outdoor sports adventures. Corral the family, pack a picnic and catch one of the ski lifts for an afternoon of hiking or mountain biking along scenic trails. Head to Salt Lake City, where Temple Square hosts millions of visitors a year. Bryce Canyon and Arches National Park are famous for surreal landscapes from horseshoe-shaped amphitheaters to unusual rock formations and hundreds of natural sandstone arches. Closer to home, wander along the quaint main streets of mountain villages to browse, shop and enjoy lunch at an outdoor café. At the end of the day, head home for an outdoor barbecue and an evening of games. Home rentals blend privacy, space and comfort with the cost-saving advantage of eating some meals at home.

UC Moab Late May
Reviewed By Guide511833UC Moab was our second time at UC (Smokey Mt. NP). Fantastic experience, staff was very friendly and helpful. Accommodations are first class and the wood burning stove came in very handy with the 40-degree nights we had. The sunrises right from your tent are awesome!

Clean, comfortable cabin.
Reviewed By Adventure769477This was quite a pleasant one-night stay. The cabin was clean and cute. The air conditioning worked well and we were comfortable. I always look for and appreciate lodging with at least a mini fridge and microwave and this cabin had both. During Covid, social distancing is important to me and I was very happy that I was offered a contactless check-in if I wanted it. The contactless breakfast basket waiting for us in the cabin when we checked in was also a nice touch, a variety of packaged items including but not limited to some very tasty pastries. We also had a tent site because we were traveling with our dog and she was not allowed inside the cabin. Having to split our family up so that someone had to pitch a tent and sleep with the dog and having to take turns staying outside with her was a bit of a pain, but this was something I knew about and agreed to ahead of time so that's on me. They do offer pet friendly cabins, as well, but those don't have their own bathroom. Especially during Covid, it is important to me to have a private bath so this was the only way we could accomplish that and still be able to bring the dog, which was a big part of why we chose the Escalante area in the first place....more trails that are dog friendly than places like the national parks in Southern Utah. We would have stayed longer if we'd been able to bring the dog inside the cabin with us. If I had one suggestion for improvement, it would be to offer some pet friendly cabins that do have their own private bathrooms. Everything else worked great for us. I'd stay again, especially if not bringing the dog.

Misleading website photo
Reviewed By ChabrroIt's about 20 minutes from Zion and over-priced. The actual location is roadside and there is construction both on and near the site. There were no sheets for the sofa bed and none were delivered, despite our request. The thermostat was pre-set and our space was freezing by day and hot at night. There is a fridge and micro, but no small table or a chair (inside) to use for breakfast, maybe that's the "glamping". There is a tiny table on the deck. The office staff members were very nice, but disorganized with communication. No wi-fi at all, except very close to the office area- and that was spotty.

Nice place!
Reviewed By marialaffyVery nice campground. It is obvious that the owners put a lot of thought into the planning of this RV campground. We stayed in the tent area and liked it very much. Landscaping abounds. If you are staying this area or just passing through I would recommend that you stay here. The man in the check in area was so helpful on things to do in the area. Didn’t catch his name.

Fun Family Glamping
Reviewed By Q4529OPbonniewWe took two of our grandsons and stayed in a covered wagon. The boys loved it! Great customer service all around. The bathroom and shower facilities were spotless. This was our second stay at the Conestoga Ranch and we stayed in one of the big tents previously. That was a great time as well.
8. Yonder Escalante

AMAZING stay
Reviewed By claredG8190IWOne of our all-time favorite AirBnB stays ever! My husband and I stayed here on a week-long trip through the Utah national parks, and LOVED our time here. We’ll remember watching the sunset from the front porch of our cabin, taking hot showers underneath the desert sky, and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit next to our cabin for a long time. The level of service from the staff at Yonder was outstanding; they consistently went above and beyond, even offering to come to our cabin to help us start a fire during our stay. And the property had thought of every detail – from the lantern, matches, and firestarters in our cabin, to the heaters in the outdoor showers, to the fire going in the lounge area in the morning. Yonder is a very special place. If you’re lucky enough to find availability, stop scrolling and book it now!

Country Fine
Reviewed By Mark CAfter a day of hiking around Bryce Canyon NP we stayed at the Bryce Country Cabins in Tropic UT on May 6. This was absolutely perfect. Check in was easy and the cabin was just what we wanted. Our only regret was only staying here one night. We went into the town of Tropic for dinner and saw some of the other cabin and hotel choices and felt great about the one we had picked out. After dinner, we were able to sit on our back patio and enjoy the quiet mountain views. The next morning we woke up in time to see sunrise coming over the mountaintops. We got the deluxe log cabin king which gave us an unobstructed view on our patio. Fire pits around also. This was a great evening to finish off a great day. Mark and Jo Ann Carroll of Senoia GA
10. Zion Glamping Adventures
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 19 reviews
Zion Glamping Adventures is an experience like no other. Located in a private canyon just minutes off the highway, but years away from the hustle and bustle of the City. Centrally located close to Zion, Coral Pink Sand Dunes, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell, Grand Canyon, and many other areas in the Grand Circle of National Parks. Our Canyon boasts views of the Canaan Mountain Wilderness Area, and is within walking distance of the stunning Water Canyon trail head with waterfalls, a natural rock bridge, and pure spring water. Each tent site is meticulously set up to provide both luxury and privacy, while providing a true sense of nature inside the red rock canyon walls. Our large tents include comfortable queen beds, luxurious bedding, table, chairs and lantern.
Incredible Glamping Experience
Reviewed By AkiNoRyuZion Glamping Adventures is our first (but not last) glamping experience. We were a group of family friends with 3 kids, the youngest being 6 y/o. The campsite is set on the other side of the mountains from Zion National Park, about an hour's drive away. The tents are scattered on the hillside in a way that provides privacy per tent but still close enough to not be isolated. There's a picnic table and fire pit for each site. We had 3 tents for our group. The bathrooms with showers are only a few dozen yards away, roughly in the center of the camp grounds. There's safe parking right onsite. We were greeted by Marcel on check in (there's no formal check in with a desk, etc. He just met us when we arrived.). He gave us a tour of the grounds including an introduction to their animals: a pig named Wilbur, and mother pony and her new baby, and some young chickens. All of which we were welcome and encouraged to pet. There is a large open space where they have some yard games set up (ex horseshoe and bean bag toss). There were grills available for use. Marcel made pancakes each morning which were a big hit with our party. We kept coming back for seconds (and thirds)! They provide a common fridge and freezer - super handy if you have food that might spoil. Of course I need to talk about the actual accommodations. We used their 2-queen bed tents. They were quite spacious - plenty of space for our bags. The beds are real beds and are very comfortable. They were fully made - we didn't need to utilize our own blankets or sleeping bags. They also provided towels. There were a lot of activities/excursions Zion Glamping Adventures offered. Too bad we were only there for the weekend - not enough time! Would love to return for a longer stay next time!
