Zion River Resort

Stayed for 4 nights. The park is 10minutes away from Zion National Park and about 2hrs from Bryce Canyon. The park is adjacent to the Virgin River. Walking path to the river is great for kids. Verizon signal is poor but TMobile gets 4 bars. This park is the best alternative when campgrounds inside Zion are booked. The park store is relatively full of pertinent supplies and gift items. They even have a “mining” activity for the kiddos. Would def stay here again when we visit the area next.

I mistakenly ended up at this campground. When I was planning my trip early on I thought I had made my reservation at a nearby campground just outside the entrance to Zion National Park. I finished a long hike in Zion and was ready to get situated for the night late afternoon and night and pulled into the other campground. I checked my email to confirm the space number and kept driving around to find it. After about 10 minutes of that nonsense I pulled over and parked and re-read the entire pre arrival email. I discovered then I was at the wrong place. So back on to the road and West I went. When I finally arrived at Zion River Resort its appeared to be 10x nicer than the other. It was better maintained, nicely landscaped, signs clearly posted, roads easily navigable, sites clearly marked. I found my spot in no time and backed in. Spot 111 is against the pool. If you want peace and quiet you might consider a spot further away from the pool or maybe not use a campground at all, frankly. I didn’t mind the background noise of kids playing and laughing and people talking on the pool deck. Quiet time starts at 10pm so after then I noticed no excessive noise. By the way capacity limits were in place for both pool and store and from what I could tell were being adhered to. The store/checkin staff was very friendly and helpful. The showers were probably the cleanest I’ve experienced at a campground. The wifi was a little spotty, but I had decent LTE reception. I walked the park and met someone who was renting a converted Mercedes Benz Sprinter Cargo van which I’ve been looking into doing myself. While social distancing we chatted for awhile and he showed me the van. Awesome stuff. The campground is next to a river. It was cool to check that out but didn’t stay out there long. Overall great campground experience! Thank you.

Nice store, office, pool/spa, & sites. Every site has a fire pit & nice aluminum picnic table. 20 or so cable channels. Nice grass around the sites. Wifi was decent. This has been a well-run place for a long time now. Not the cheapest but it’s super nice. Downside: Not located within walking distance to any attraction / activity. Rate listed includes Good Sam discount.

Stayed here for our short visit to ZNP. Arrived around 8:30pm check-in was still open and took all of five minutes, including buying some fire wood. Had a pull through site that was nice and level. We had extra space on our door side because of a walkway. Pool was nice and refreshing after hiking all day. Our site had a fire ring. Staff was friendly and helpful. Will stay here again on our next ZNP visit.

Very clean and accommodating. The first night we had to stay in a larger spot (I think around $65) then moved to a smaller spot ($54). Overall, staff were great- small kids and pets are welcomed. They have a pool, playground, on site grill that serves homemade ice cream. Only 20 min drive to Zion- easy to park in any parking lots near the enterence for $20/day then take the free Springfield bus to Zion. Springfield is like a small Sedona with cute and independent shops. The RV park offers ride to Zion- drop off 9am and pick up 3pm for $7/round trip per person. They also have nightly activities for kids, like making birdhouse or watching movies. WiFi was good- didn’t have a problem.

We were desperate. It was 105° and we had to find a place to plug in. We got lucky and snagged the last site available. Clean, green and well maintained. Nice bathrooms and showers. I have never paid that much for a campsite (well, there was that time in Key West...😬), but we were able to sleep in AC, so it’s all good. It is a ways from the park.

We stayed here in early June and it was hot! We purposefully booked a place with full hookups so we could have AC- it was 100 degrees! The utilities here were great- we use a surge protector and it never went off and EVERYONE was running AC.
Normally we stay in campgrounds which we prefer, but there are occasions that call for an RV Park. This was one of the nicest we have stayed in. From reservations to check out everything went great. We initially booked a back in site which was all they had available- and we were going to have to move in the middle of the stay, but an employee knocked on our door and asked if we wanted to move to a nicer pull through site for the remainder of our stay because they had a cancellation and they saw in their notes that I had wanted a pull through!. We were very pleased to move to a pull through spot as it had grass and was roomier than the back in.
This park is close to Zion and to town so the location is very good. They have a nice store, laundry, pool and hold some kind of activity planned each evening. Very charming.
We enjoyed our interactions with staff and volunteers and would definitely come here again.
They are doing a great job at Zion River Resort!
We didn't have good cell coverage (Verizon) and the WiFi worked sporadically but we enjoyed the down time.

I really enjoyed my site here. It was very easy to get into, the staff was very helpful. As we were leaving on the last day, a vital piece of my awning broke. One of the staff came over with a hose clamp and secured the piece together so I could roll in and lock my awning for travel.

Our site was beautiful. Each site has a stretch of manicured, soft, lush grass that you can walk around in barefoot. Hookups were easy to set up. We set up our little mat, table, and two chairs and played scrabble into the evening. The location was superb if you are going to hike in ZNP. The boyfriend has T-Mobile and had cell reception there. I have Verizon and also had cell phone reception. The bathrooms were clean though very limited, as the toilet and showers were in the same rooms. So if you had to use the toilet but not the shower, you better pray that everyone isn't showering or else you'll be waiting for awhile.

The 'dog park' was underwhelming to say the least. It was a very small fenced gravel pen with no shade, no benches. If your dog is highly entertained by sniffing the perimeter of fencing over and over, this'll be great. For us, it sucked.

Overall, the park was clean, well run, and we felt we had a resort-like experience.

This is a great location for visiting Zion National Park. It's a 20 minute drive to the park and there is a free shuttle service. If you arrive after 10am in ZNP, parking will be tough so it's nice to have the shuttle option.
There's a lot to do in ZNP and this is a great base. Grafton ghost town is a fun side trip.

The price is high but you can see where the money is going. The grounds are immaculate and there are a lot of amenities. The laundromat was really nice with double sized washers for $2 and the game room with a pool table for $.50/game was an added bonus.
Connectivity was great with ATT voice (very slow data) but non existent for Verizon. They do have a booster in the rec room if you have to make a Verizon call.
The campground wifi was the best I have seen at a private RV park.
Cable was good but I had to use a signal booster to get a decent picture.
The staff was extremely friendly and it was easy to tell they take a lot of pride in the park.
Try to get a river site to avoid road noise.
