Popped in on our drive to AZ. Vibes were great! Large open area to let dogs run around. Bathrooms weren’t grody like most gas stations. Their fountain drinks really hit. Worth the stop!

I rarely leave reviews, but this place is worthy of one. After a week of camping and fishing, I stopped for propane, ended up buying fuel, shower, snack and doing laundry. Cleanest restrooms, showers and laundry I have seen anywhere. Very friendly and helpful staff. I’ll stop here every time!
Tom Lambert
Great place to stop for a shower. Showers are only about $4 or $5 (supply your own towel and soap), staff is really friendly. Great place to get clean and recharge after a stint in the outdoors or as a stop on a long drive

I really enjoyed my time here. I was quite surprised how far back one can hike. My dogs loved it. Very quiet at night and you see so much of the sky. There's a quiet reservoir about 30 mins (I think. I got distracted and stopped at the Butch Cassidy site). Staff was friendly and it was incredibly convenient being next to a gas station.

The site area is all gravel, pads were level, and area was clean. Decent laundry, showers, and bathrooms, and kept very clean. Has a "country store" and gas station. Nice fenced dog park, although also gravel. The staff was pleasant and helpful. Good location for Bryce Canyon, and within an hour to Zion. Panguich is about 10 miles away. Peaceful place to stay.
