Hurricane Cliffs Designated Dispersed Campsites 36-48

2 stars for the views - incredible, plus 1 star for access - bumpy but not undoable, plus 1 star for size of sites (our 36’ rig would’ve had no issues). Withholding one star because we couldn’t find a spot. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon in mid-October and expected that to be the worst time to arrive and it was. We found nothing open. As an older review stated you must stay in a numbered spot and there are just a handful of actual RV spots in the area, maybe 5-6, the rest are tent spots. But literally no one is out here obeying the rules. There were people camping on privately owned property, in front of signs that said no camping, and RVs of every size taking all the tent spots. We tried 3 different areas of Hurricane Cliffs and it was all full - lesson learned. I might try coming here again some other time but it would only be mid-week.

Note- I’m adding my two cents as a review because before I arrived I wondered how many people tried to find a spot and couldn’t.

We passed all the campsites to the very last one #48. It’s right next to a hill and close to the virgin river. It had no trees around these campsites but not a big deal. The campsites are pretty spaced out except #40-45. You can access the area from either side, RT 9 is shorter but still bumpy. You have access to the virgin river up the road using your vehicle but it’s day use only. Everyone that camped was pretty quiet. We stayed from Tues-Friday. It started to get busy Thursday night as people started to set up camp in undesignated spots and right in front of an already in use campsite. The last campsites you can hear the RT 9 traffic in the morning, but it’s not loud. There is a Quarry along the way but we didn’t see any workers or hear any construction noise. #46-48 we noticed there was very little to no signal with Verizon. I was able to walk up the hill and get service.

I just happen to find this place where there was space available. The campsite was big. It was off the main dirt road so didn’t get a bunch of traffic. A lot of Mtn bikers. No hookups. Fire pit in all areas. I stayed for 13 days. Got cut short due to a huge bike race and most sites where reserved for event people only. They gave everyone a week notice but there is no way to find out about the event unless you were onsite. I talked to the management and they said they are trying to make it available on their website so people will know before getting there.
Cell service (Verizon) was great! Most definitely will stay here again

Hurricane Bluff was once a dispersed camping are that has now been converted into designated sites to help reduce congestions. However it seems no one knows or know one cares. We stayed in site 36 just off Sheep Bridge road in a 35 foot fifth wheel. We had several people move into the top half of our site. The same thing happened in other sites too including a group camping all around a No Camping sign. Sheep Bridge road had some wash board areas but other wise fairly well maintained. Nice sunrises and sunsets. Just 28 minutes from Zion and 6 miles into Hurricane to pick up supplies. Good cell coverage.
