Beautiful view. Was a bit surprised by how long the climbing dirt road was, and the steep descent to our campsite, #2. I was under the impression that the access to water to fill my RV tank was at the entrance to the campground, but unfortunately it was at the bottom of the descending hill beyond my campsite--a bit of a challenge. Thankfully, I have an offroad RV. Host is awesome, offers firewood onsite for a fee. Close to everything--great location. Would definitely recommend.

The camp was as advertised. We were the only campers for the weekend. Very quite and peaceful. Beautiful view of the hills and surrounding area. The shower was a little rough because it leaked, but it still worked. The bath room was very clean. The most memorial part of the experience was the camp host Colt. He went out of his way to make sure we had what we needed. Very helpful and friendly.

Beautiful view and welcoming Host! Super convenient location, and a peaceful place to wind down after busy days.

The campgrounds were gorgeous! I loved the views and it was nice being so close to Knab and Zion National park. I would highly recommend.

Great spot with great views. So glad we were able to get the spot last minute. It was awesome that they had wood for sale at the property.

Stayed on site 2 and really enjoyed it. Easy to park a couple cars and plenty of space to spread out. Nice view of the valley

Colt was extremely hospitable and helpful. The space was well set up and felt safe. There were a lot of items available that may have been easily forgotten.
We stayed at the site that was a but away from the others. It was the spot everyone had to drive by which is a bit distracting but not terrible. The site was super clean and spacious.

We loved the location both in proximity to national parks and also the site itself.
We had cell reception but felt relatively off the grid, at the top of the hill with minimal breeze and open night sky.
It had everything we needed/wanted from a campsite for a 3-4 day weekend adventure!
Also, Colt was super nice and responsive.

Private and safe with a warm shower! It is right on the Arizona/Utah boarder (Arizona side) and so the time change was an interesting challenge to navigate. Half our phones were on Arizona time and half on Utah! Confusing! Other than that the site was perfect!

Colt was very responsive to any questions I had. The landscape was beautiful and the night sky was fantastic. It served as my home base for nearby parks I wanted to visit. I even got 5G on my phone to FaceTime which was a plus.

We had a great time camping at Colt’s place! Beautiful, private and great access to many national and state parks. Colt was an awesome host and answered all of our questions really fast.

The pros: Great location for easy access to all of what Southern Utah/Northern Arizona has to offer...an hour in either direction gets you to Grand Canyon or Zion and the town of Kanab is perfect as a jumping off point to numerous activities. We had 2 trailers in site 1 and had plenty of room. The cons: Site 1 has no shade so keep that in mind for the warmer months. In mid May we hit 90 degrees. Also, because site 1 is on top of the hill, it can get windy. Lastly, a few pieces of advise for the host: 1) directions state red signs, they're blue; 2) firewood is not free - its $5/bundle; 3) a daily visit by the host to the toilet and shower to tidy up after the not-so-clean campers would have been nice. The porta-potty was pretty gross and the shower had a lot of people's empty bottles, zip lock bags, etc. laying around. A trash bin near this area would probably be helpful.

Amazing campsite. We loved every second of it. Colt was incredibly responsive and helpful from the second we booked, to the several questions I had during our stay. The campsites were clean, adorable, and the views were out of this world. Having a bathroom and a shower with hot water was also a huge plus after hiking with heavy packs all day. The option for firewood for sale was awesome and affordable. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for 4 nights.

Incredible secluded spot yet close to the highway. The scenery is amazing, we stayed at campsite #10. Shower access was great along with portapottys, honor system firewood available via venmo or cash. Cell phone reception with a couple of bars for Verizon.

We loved out stay at Heart of the Parks! An easy drive to so many amazing places and near the interstate for easy access! You can hear soem freeway noise, but not loud and the views are GORGEOUS!!!
The shower is indeed piping hot in the afternoon, but cools gradually thru the evening!
Loved having bathroom and shower at such a great camping spot! Definitely recommend and would love to visit again!

The campsite was fantastic! Wood is provided for $5 and there is plenty of room to set up camp. The views are incredible! The shower has hot water, there is a water spigot near the shower with potable water, and a port-a-potty as well. Colt is great at communicating with his guests and the area is fantastic!

The first two days the Port-A-Potty was so full it couldn't be used. The shower had a portion of hose broken and sprayed water everywhere. It still provided a shower with hot water but left your towel and clothing soaked. The campsites provided lots of room. Dry firewood was nice with great fire pits. Stars at night were incredible.

LOVED MY SPOT! I was amazed at the views and being on the cliffs, allowed me to watch the 2 crows and a hawk cruise by right in front of me. I had a hummingbird fly around me after he drank front a beautiful red cactus bloom. The star gazing was spectacular and, really, i couldn't have been much happier. I felt safe and comfortable and I was traveling alone with my 2 fur babies. I am ready to go back! Love it!

Heart of the Parks!
The views of the red rock cliffs from this camp are insane. Nice and quiet and peaceful. You can hear the road but it didn't bother me at night at all. There is a very clean porta potty, potable water, and trash collection. Also a shower, but that seemed not to work well enough to bother with.
Be aware that this is dirt camping and there is little shade in the afternoon so it's hot until the sun goes down a little. Also can get a bit breezy if there's wind, so anchor your tent (which you do anyway, right?)
Thanks Colt, it's a nice camp. I'd stay there again.

Heart of the Parks!
Colt was very accommodating and responsive during our stay! His family was so sweet to go out of their way to purchase a tent for us when we asked if we could borrow one, and he also made sure the showers worked effectively. We were so appreciative of him taking the time to make sure we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The campsite was perfect! Great views, a fire fit, bathroom, and a HOT shower!! Colt was very helpful when I was first booking my site and was great. If I ever find myself back in the area, I’ll stay here again.

This was a great stay! We got one of the sites we could drive up to, which is always nice. The seats around the fire pit were so nice to have, and the firewood for sale on the property saved us a stop! Definitely recommend this site!

Site 6 is great. Amazing views. Can’t express how perfect this place is. We stayed because we wanted to hit up The Wave & we made the trek to the GC.

I loved my stay at Heart of the Parks. I had site #2 and it was perfect. The views were wonderful and although there were other campsites nearby, I felt like I had my own private space. The shower is definitely a camping shower, but it felt great at the end of a long day. I would definitely recommend staying at Heart of the Parks.
