Weekend Trip to Red River Camp - Capitol Reef

We had a great time here! The site is about 20 minutes from the CRNP visitors center and it was great to still be in a beautiful location. The port-a-potty was very clean and close to the site. This is a great spot!

1 night at Red River Camp - Capitol Reef

Great place! Had it to myself while doing a Southern Utah road trip. Views are great, peaceful spot, easy to get to from the highway. Porta potty on site. Cool to see the bison on the way in.

1 night at Manning Creek Campground Paiute ATV

It’s an inexpensive place to camp on your way to somewhere else. No frills. Not beautiful views. Level parking and quiet.

2 nights at Red River Camp - Capitol Reef

Great land, great views of the red rocks. Easy to find and distinguish the separate campsites.
