Close to Zion East Entrance!
21 ft Class B · With pets · Do you want a campground super-close to the east entrance to Zion National Park via the Mt. Carmel Tunnel? Do you want free hot showers? Well, the Hi Road Base Camp is for you.
Here are the caveats, though, but they’re not deal breakers.
1. There will be traffic noise from 6 am-9:30 pm. The campground is right on the highway.
2. There is a smell from the septic tank that periodically wafts through the campground and the clubhouse where the showers and toilets are located.
3. The showers have not been deep cleaned in a long time. It’s scungy. Bring shower shoes.
4. There is no attendant on site after about 4:30 pm and before 9 am. So if there’s a problem…
5. There are 3 Great Pyrenees that roam the property. They were pretty aggressive to our small, leashed dogs. While there is a requirement that guests keep their pets leashed, these large floofy beasties roam free and can freak you out with their big barks. You’ve been warned.
6. Avoid space 43. It’s a mud bog.
7. There are only two working washers and dryers.
Overall, the property is a little rough, and needs some TLC. There are tumbleweeds pokey weeds that make it look unkempt. Weeding and putting down mulch and gravel, leveling the boggy sites, and a diligent eye for cleanliness will go a long way! For its proximity to the eastern park entrance it cannot be beat.
NB: If your rig is taller than 11 ft, you cannot go thru the tunnel beginning 2026!
