Camping in designated sites only. Except for the fact that many of the access roads are so rutted that they require a high clearance vehicle, this is a great area with awesome views of the Pine Valley Mountains, Gooseberry Mesa, and the outer west wall of Zion. Lots of designated mountain bike trails for all skill levels. The nearby town of Hurricane has nearly everything you need. I was there in early April and felt lucky to get a spot.

The sites are on a plateau with gorgeous views, gorgeous sunsets and even better views of the night sky. The hill climb out of Hurricane is pretty steep.

Climb the hill, go about a mile, and you will see the road on the left. It was *really* washboarded when we first got there. After we'd been there a week, a grater came through and knocked the tops off of them making the road nearly plate smooth. Nice. Follow the road back about a 1/2 mile and you will see the first road on the left. I am a 43' toy hauler and no problems at all. But to be clear, I could only take spot #1. Any further back the roads were incredibly rutted. There are folks back there with smaller rigs and tents, but not me. My closest neighbor was a couple hundred yards away.
The views were spectacular. You are surrounded by hills and bluffs. This is dispersed camping - no water, power, sewer, nothing. There is a dump/fill station at the Maverick in Le Verkin (not the one in Hurricane).
Lots and lots of bicycles out. Lots of trails. I've seen a handful of atvs, but nothing obnoxious.
The bad. Since I'm in spot #1, I am right next to the dirt road. Folks go *flying* down the road, leaving a jetstream contrail of dirt in the air behind them. There is dirt *everywhere* It is always suspended in the air. The wind can be howling. I'm sitting here now and my 24k pound rig is rocking.
I have been told that if there is rain in the forecast, evacuate. The dirt turns into slippery, sticky, soft mud and you absolutely will not get out.
I would definitely come back for the views and the price. Wouldn't mind seeing a 5-minute rainstorm knock the dust down.

We arrived in Zion on June 3, a Monday, hoping for good availability. Most of the spots we had read reviews on were to rutted from the spring rains. Our 35ft 5th wheel has good clearance but most of the roads were beyond what we could get thru. Lots of no camping signs up in spots too because they were recovering from the rain. After turning our 1.5 hour drive from Bryce Canyon into 10 hours of driving around trying to get a spot we settled for hurricane cliffs spot #1. It had the space for our rig and was right off the road so we could pull in and get out easy. Scouted other areas but really found nothing available, and it wasn’t due to the huge crowds Zion gets the spots just couldn’t be accessed so hopefully gets better as summer rolls in. The spot itself was trashed. Lots of glass, lots of nails, and other garbage all around. Like I said it was spot #1 so right of main road and that was busy/dusty most of the day. No to bad at nite but most everyone who did drive by also did at very fast speeds. About 20min to the Zion entrance and 10 minutes from the town of hurricane that had food, gas, splash park for kids(it got to triple digits) and dump station for free at maverick station. The road to site was good just very washboard. When accessing from hurricane it’s only about a mile and a half down dirt road. Got 3 stars for the trash and the dust, but did have good views and access to Zion and hurricane. Would hope that it gets better after the spring rains but some of the roads looked in need of serious repair for big rigs to make it down. It was right by the trial head for the jem trail that was an amazing bike ride and maybe worth the stay alone.
