The perfect way to escape the heat of summer, and the crowds of Zion National Park. Kolob Campground, Kolob Terrace Road, and Kolob Reservoir is a quiet location nestled between the main canyons of Zion National Park and the remote Kolob Finger Canyons Complex at Zion National Park. With quick access to West Rim Trail, Subway Canyon, Hop Valley Trail, and Wildcat Canyon Trail, this area of Greater Zion is not to be missed.   Located in a private gated area on the shores of Kolob Reservoir, Kolob Campground is the premiere location for camping on Kolob Mountain in the Greater Zion National Park area.  Kolob Campground is located adjacent to the Kolob Reservoir boat ramp and dock, including four acres of private shoreline. Just a few feet from the paved road, nestled in tall aspen, oak, and pine trees.  Access to potable water is available adjacent to camp, and public restrooms (vault toilets) are only a short walk from camp. WiFi access is available nearby at Kolob Adventure Rentals/Adventure Beach (3 minute walk). WiFi location and password provided by host upon request. This is an exclusive benefit available to our guests, and the only WiFi available to campers in the area. Canoe, kayak and SUP rentals, snacks and beverages are also located nearby.  LP(propane) fires are allowed and LP fire bowls can be provided through the camp host. LP fuel is also available for purchase. Wood burning, charcoal, and smoking currently not allowed due to area restriction.

Great views
Great location to the lake and upper trails of Zion. I was fine with the proximity of the sites. The campground itself should have its own water supply and toilet facilities being permanent. I enjoyed it though.

Camping with our two dogs
We had a great time. The campsite was clean and the views were amazing. We had our two 9 month old boxers with us and after spending their whole life in an apartment they absolutely loved the outdoors. They dug holes, ate sticks and tree roots and rolled around in the dirt. John our camp host wasn’t available but he had the other camp host Jeff check in on us. Jeff was awesome and even gave us a ride in his ATV showing some outstanding views we couldn’t get to in our car. He also hooked us up with some firewood and made sure we were well taken care of. Thank you Jeff!!!

Beautiful campground! The fire pits and tables were a nice perk. I would definitely stay here again, especially during the fall- the bright yellow leaves on the white birch trees were gorgeous!

The toilets were awful. They had obviously not been emptied in a long while. Also the tables were filthy and there was a general air of a complete lack of care or interest in keeping the site fit for use. It was very disappointing given its position and in contrast to nearly all the other campsites we visited. I suggest Hipcamp does not list it.

Campsite in a nice environment
Campsite ok but pricy since it doesn’t have services. We lacked grills at the fire pit to cook our dinner. The campsite is in a remote area, and the drive there was so nice.

Beautiful camping on the reservoir
Beautiful campground right on the reservoir. The RV spot we were in was quite tricky to back out camper into because of the placement of the campground marker post on one side and tree on the other, but after a bit of Austin-Powers-ing we got it in. Water access was actually outside the campground at the boat ramp, but still very easy to get to. Bathrooms were extremely clean.

Such a great camping trip!
My husband and I are SUPER new to camping and John made everything really comfortable and wonderful for us. The site is absolutely gorgeous (we were at #14) ~ you can see the reservoir right from the grounds and it’s tucked away from the entrance which was really great. As other people have mentioned. John comes around to check on you and is really generous with his time and attention. Also— mentioning this because I would’ve like to see something about this in a review when I was researching— If you’re afraid of wildlife visiting your tent like I was (hehe) know that we encountered nothing but cute little birds and a few deer. There may be bigger animals somewhere relatively nearby for folks that want to see them, but they certainly don’t come to the campsite. 10/10 and 100% would recommend

Perfect weekend getaway
My boyfriend and our dog spent last Saturday-Monday camping here and had the best time! And were lucky enough to catch the aspens all golden and beautiful! The campground and all around the reservoir is filled with them, it was magical. Campsite has fire pit, trash can, table and picnic tables at some! And a beautiful view of the water from almost any location. Tons of nice little walks to take all around the campground. Camp host John was great and came by to introduce himself and tell us everything we needed to know. Only downside is some of the spots and kinda small and close together but definitely not all of them!! Will definitely be coming back and recommending to all our friends :)

Amazing Time
The views of the reservoir and the far off peaks are truly incredible. The sunset and sunrise are also awesome. Very, very accommodating campsite with waste disposal, fire pit, bench and table, portable bathrooms, and even wifi access which blew my mind. Directions are made very clear and the route to the campsite has breathtaking views. My one and only gripe is that I wish it were more dispersed but there's still plenty of space between campers.

Awesome campsite! Site 14 had a nice view of the lake. Some people bring RVs and run generators which create some noise but the camp captain is super friendly and the grounds are well kept

Best camp we could have asked for!
This campground was the best of all aspects of camping. Private enough to feel like primitive camping, but with internet! As we were two women on vacation In the wilderness, we wanted to feel like we were actually experiencing nature while also feeling safe at night. This spot was perfect for us. The camp (site 4) was spacious and scenic, overlooking the lake. The perfect view to look out on from a tent. The drive in/out was amazingly beautiful with breathtaking views all the way. And John, the camp host, was so informative, helpful and nice. I would (and probably will) stay here again the next time I’m able to come back to Zion. 10/10 would recommend!

Wow what an experience! I had a sizable group and John was so amazing to be sure that we had everything we needed! From booking to arrival, John sent some helpful information that kept everyone safe and excited. The camping sites were great. Getting in/out of the water was easy and we were able to kayak around. We will definitely be back!

Great host, peaceful campsite
John is a fantastic host. He sent really detailed instructions to get to the Reservoir on paved streets and even called to check in day of. When you get to the reservoir, the site is really clean and tidy. There are porta potties nearby and wifi powered by solar. If you're in campsite 1 and 2 you're the closest to wifi, which made me very excited. John came by to say hi and check in and let us know what to expect. The reservoir was fun to swim and kayak in. The other guests were really nice as well. The reservoir is about 1 hour away from Zion, so you can get some nice green shade and then more of the iconic red rocks. I liked that balance.

Perfect Getaway Weekend
Great little getaway to Kolob Campground. The reservoir was gorgeous and serene. We could even see the water from our campsite. The host stopped by upon our arrival and was very kind and welcoming. Wish we had planned on staying longer than two nights. The only bummer was the amount of broken glass around our site. There was a lot and we have three dogs, so spent quite a bit of time picking up glass. I wish people would clean up after themselves better. Not the campsites fault as they clearly ask you to leave no trace and pack out your trash. The nights were cold, so we were grateful for the warm fire. We will be back.

Beautiful camp next to Kolob reservoir. Camped in the midst of aspen. Close to the Kolob Canyon and Kolob Terrace areas of Zion which aren't as crowded. Keep in mind the site is 1 hour from Springdale and the visitor center entrance. John was a great host and drove out to our campsite at night when our rental battery died the night before we were leaving to catch our flight.

Beautiful campground right on a lake! The road up is long and goes through parts of Zion NPS! It was up out of the heat of the canyon too which made our Zion trip so much nicer in the heat of the summer! The host was very helpful in making sure we had all of the relevant info before we lost cell service. He called me the morning before we arrived to make sure we understood all the instructions. We would love to visit again in the future!
