Kanab RV Corral

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.

We needed a spot in Kanab for a few days and this was the best of limited choices. It's very conveniently located, and you can walk to a variety of stores nearby. It was also fairly quiet for being "in town". The WiFi was amazingly fast, better than 95% of RV parks we've stayed at. The big drawback for us is that the sites are very narrow, and many back-in sites (ours included) have a tree on both sides at the entrance to the site, making backing in a challenge. There's no room for error, and the tree branches are low enough to rub both sides of our motorhome on the way into the site. Rigs are very close together, no breathing room. There's a tiny fenced dog park, but we glanced at it and kept going, instead walking our bigger dog along some nearby streets. Since it seems to be the best option in town we would consider staying here again if we need to be in Kanab in the future, or we might try to find nearby boondocking instead if the weather is favorable.

We are disappointed with this campground, although we typically do not stay in campgrounds. However, there was weather coming through the area, and we did not want to be on dirt.

We have a large (40 foot) 5th Wheel with a high overall clearance, and a 25 foot truck. When we called to make the reservation, we asked that there were no trees on the site, we gave our dimensions and that we would like two nights.

The work camper (who had only been working there 2 weeks) stated that she had a site for us. The site, 39, was maybe long enough to put our Truck, but not the rig! So we changed from being there two nights to just one, and was going for site 41, but it had low branches. So we got a pull through at site 3. I realize that the work camper is new. Really they did not have anything available for more than one night for us.

The reason this gets 3 stars rather than one star is that their wifi is pretty fast for a Kanab UT campground. There was some road noise, but we don't mind that. The electricity, 50 amp, works fine. Water pressure is good.

Pool was not open yet. We did not check out the bathrooms as it was raining. There is a code for the bathrooms as well as a password for the wifi, which you get at the office when you check in.

The site is relatively level, although we had small blocks on our driver's side.

Tip: This campground is good for smaller rigs, motorhomes or travel trailers that do not have slides. The picture we have shows our slide out and our view.

Also found out that they used to have more pull throughs but they had to make them back ins. That is too bad as they only have 44 sites within the campground and now only 4 sites that are pull throughs.

The campground looked clean, but muddy in a few spots. While they have gravel, the between areas of the sites are not gravel, so when it is raining, you have mud. There was a picnic table at the site, but it was raining so we did not use it.

They only take Good Sam and AAA (I guess for tent campers?).

When we leave, we might hit branches of a large bush.
