Kanab RV Corral

This is a typical RV park where the spaces are very close (may be less than 10 ft to next site). We stayed for one night as an overnighter on our way to the pacific NW. full hook ups and pu through sites, it’s in the middle of town, you can prob walk to restaurants etc. this is not my usual camping though so if I was coming back, I would not choose this as my home base for exploring Zion and surroundings as I like to be in a more campground setting than right next to my neighbor. They have a pool and WiFi but we didn’t use either

We planned to stay two nights but had to extend when our water tank was leaking. Rather than boondock near the North Rim we decided to play it safe and use Kanab and the RV Corral as our HQ for day trips to the North Rim, Zion, and Bryce. Alas, we were not drawn in the walk-up lottery for The Wave, but we shall return and try again! We really enjoyed our stay and made good use of the internet, the extra clean laundry room and bathrooms. And the dog run was great for our two little guys. If you're needing to stay in Kanab, this is a great choice.

Our site was on the back side of the campground away from 89A. We never heard any traffic from 89A, the campground was overall nice and quiet. Sites are a little on the skinny side, enough room for slides but not a lot of extra space between neighboring sites. Many of the sites have nice large shade trees, so make sure to check Google Earth if you care to figure out which sites you want most. Most sites are packed gravel. Upon check in we were greeted with a great attitude and a smile.

Sites cost $37 to $45 per night depending on which one you reserve. There is a 10% discount for Good Sam Members, however there is an extra charge for each person over two (0-3 Free, 4-15 $2 each, 16+ $4 each).

The campground was pretty much full the entire time we were there, so I recommend reservations. Pool, bathroom, showers, and laundry room were all nice and well kept / clean. WiFi was great / strong, could easily stream Netflix, Hulu, etc.

Location is ideal for exploring the area, kind of in the middle off everything with Zion, Bryce and the Grand Canyon, similar distances apart, lots of hiking,

My only major complaint was the power. During the heat of the day (around 90+ degrees) with all the air conditioners running, the voltage in the park drops low enough to be a concern often down around 110 volts, one day it dropped enough that my power protection/surge unit disconnected. This occurred why we were away and the voltage was still to low to turn back on when we got back. Unfortunately it was 90 degrees in the trailer.

Nicely landscaped with clean facilities. Great laundry room and bathrooms cleaned daily. Located with easy access to everything in Kanab. Quiet park except on Memorial day weekend and then loaded up with lots of off road enthusiasts. Right next to highway 89 but this is a quiet part of Utah and traffic is non-existent at night. Very comfortable place to stay with full hookups and good wifi. Good area in the back sites for big rigs. We were in a small 25 foot class C so no problems as all. Also very good water pressure for showers. No cable TV but that is the only thing I can think of that might be considered a negative by some.

After a week of Boondocking in some very remote locations in AZ I needed to do the typical civilization stuff today and a little RV maintenance. So I thought I would treat myself to a night at the RV corral… I don’t often get full hook ups but for $35 for the night, I couldn’t resist. I had stayed here maybe three or four years ago just as an overnight on the way to and fro for an art show. Since my last visit it’s under new ownership and it is just adorable and pleasant here… Check in was a breeze and so friendly. I did laundry, the laundry room is clean and adorable. This time of year and during this Covid pandemic it’s not that crowded here so that’s kind of the way I like it. So if you’re passing through Kanab and you need a place for the night this is a great spot or for a couple of days as a base camp. And Wi-Fi is really good here if you’re close to the office as well. There’s a little road noise from 89A but like I said, town is not crowded so it really wasn’t an issue but I’m just used to places that are so quiet it hurts your ears.

Summary: A good overnight stop for us. Would be good for a longer stay to explore the area. There is some noise from the highway that runs right along the perimeter of the park.
Sites: We had one of the "XL" pull-thru sites which were sufficiently long for our 42ft 5th wheel. There are many back-in sites around the perimeter of the park. Site was very level and the entire park appeared to be level. Gravel throughout. Very close to our neighbors.
Hook-ups: Full hookups are available and the placement of the utilities are in the middle of the site.
Amenities: There is a pool (closed for winter). Ther is a laundry room and bathhouse.
Activities: Not any activities in the park that we are aware of.
Staff: The person we dealt with was great.
Area: Kanab is a great place to basecamp for exploring Bryce, Zion, Grand Canyon (North Rim), Grand Staircase, etc. There are a couple of grocery stores, coffee shops, fuel stations, restaurants, etc. There is a Pizza Hut next to the park.
Reservations: We didn't make a reservation.
Access: Easy access off of state highway 89 and the interior roads are wide and easy to navigate.
Cell Coverage/Internet/TV: 3 bars of AT&T
Price: The price seemed high for what you get.

Great campground in a gorgeous part of Utah I didn’t know about! Check in was a breeze, owner was polite and helpful on the area. Everything is gravel, but well packed. Nice clean pool, laundry facilities were good. WiFi was excellent. Sites are about normal for a private park, so kinda close, but not touching neighbors. Dog park had grass! Nice size area for the pooches. Sets off the main road through town, but it calms down after 10, so the road noise wasn’t noticeable. No “camp store” but plenty of restaurants and grocery’s nearby. You could easily stay here and visit Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park, they’re all less than 80 miles. Lots of interesting history around. This was a big filming spot for old westerns.There is a driving trail close by that has lots of natural backdrops from some of the old tv shows and movies, even the town from “Gunsmoke”. I would definitely stay here again.

This park prides itself on its fast WiFi and that’s why we picked it- we had some work to do and blogging to catch up on- and we had a strong, fast connection the whole time.

The park is convenient to everything in the town of Kanab and we were able to walk to restaurants and ride our bikes to the visitor center each morning for the lottery for permits to hike the wave. We didn’t win the lottery but there are plenty of other awesome hikes and outdoor adventures in the area.

The one downside of the park is it is right next to a busy road- we had a site that backed right up to it- there was definitely road noise all though we were not bothered by it. We were more concerned with our dog possibly running into the road- which thankfully he didn’t.

Showers are really nice as is the dog park,pool wasn’t open yet when we were there but looked nice as well.
