The park was out of the way for the direction of our trip, but glad we stayed. The park owners, Troy and Brenda were so welcoming and helpful. The facility is well kept. Laundry room, showers, and bathrooms are all really clean. It has a fenced in dog park with real grass! Our 2 dogs enjoyed that aspect. We would come and stay again if we are in the area.

Hard Pass on Fremont RV – Look Elsewhere Fremont RV seemed promising at first—the owner was friendly when we arrived—but it quickly became clear that he takes pride in being cheap and neglectful. We had two major issues and one minor, but all of them added up to a frustrating experience. 1. The 7-Minute Shower Timer The showers are set on a strict 7-minute timer. By the time the water warms up, you’re left with just over 6 minutes to actually shower. This isn’t a military base or a truck stop—it’s a campground near Capitol Reef, where you expect to clean off after a long day outdoors. My wife couldn’t even finish washing her hair in time, and to make things worse, there’s a 5-minute wait before you can restart the water. It left us both frustrated—especially her. And as we all know, happy wife, happy life. 2. The Ant Invasion While showering, you’ll have to battle ants—yes, actual ants crawling in the shower and on the bench where you’re supposed to set your clean clothes. I had ants all over my clothes after showering. I sent a video and text to the owner about it, but never got a response. Completely unacceptable, especially when basic cleanliness is expected. This isn’t backcountry camping—we shouldn’t need bug spray to use a bathroom. 3. Gravel Parking Lot Not a dealbreaker on its own, but it adds to the overall “cheap and neglected” feel. Combined with the other issues, it just reinforces that the owner cuts corners wherever possible. Final Thoughts There are better places to stay near Capitol Reef. Look for a campground with a host who’s actually reachable, bathrooms that respect your time and comfort, and an owner who takes pride in maintaining a clean and welcoming space. At the very least—call an exterminator and ditch the shower timer. Your guests deserve better. I appreciate your response. I was not able to post the video of the ants on Google, but I did post it on yelp. I don’t think you can post videos on google only pictures. I talked to the cleaner who informed me she was the owner and she told me it’s been an ongoing problem. She said the first thing she does is look for them to clean up when arriving. Yuck! Please be honest and straightforward. I also remember a camera being out front where we had the conversation about the ants and I’m sure if you’re being fully honest, you could go back and watch it again. The truth shall set you free.

This location was great. We spent one night here and it was a great spot to recharge our electric vehicle and hit the road the next morning. The picnic tables were nice as well. The owner was very nice and helpful. Bathrooms were clean.

Fantastic full-service RV Park, highly recommend. Similar to other reviews, we were looking for an RV Park during a winter tour of the Big 5. Everything near Capitol Reef was closed, but Fremont was open and very accommodating. They have electric and water (though in the winter you can't leave the hose hooked up overnight which was totally fine). Bathrooms and showers were incredibly clean and warm, perfect for a pick me up after winter adventuring. They also have laundry facilities which were clean, easy to use ($2/wash, $2/dry, with soap for sale as well). Propane and fuel are also just down the road. Highly recommend staying here. Gary was responsive and happy to help. We had everything we needed, even waking up to a beautiful snowstorm 😉

My friend and I stayed here 2 nights with our Escape Campervan during our Mighty 5 Utah road trip. We arrived late on our first night here and had to call in order to check in. The family owning Fremont River RV Park is extremely friendly and really wanted to ensure we had a good stay. Facilities are recently updated and very well maintained. Bathrooms are cleaned at least once a day. While there is a timer on the showers with 7 minutes on and 5 minutes off, we had no problem. The showers heat up quickly and have great water pressure. The park is also within walking distance to a grocery store which was helpful to us when we needed to restock. Overall a great experience and we would highly recommend! We hope to return on our next Utah road trip!

Convenient, small RV park with full hookups halfway between Bryce Canyon and Salt Lake City. We stayed here because it was the only place open during the winter in the area. Everything was great except the place is right off the main road AND the most annoying part is that the showers have a timer. You only have 7 minutes of running water before it automatically turns off for 5 minutes. It takes at least 1 minute for the water to heat up and then you only have 6 minutes left. The owner of this establishment must be a man because to shave your legs as a woman - you need more than 6 minutes. I think it's a little cheap. 10 minutes would be better, 12 minutes ideal.

This is a clean, level, convenient rv park not far from Capitol Reef NP. The showers are timed-- 7 minutes on, 5 minutes off, then another 7 minutes on. There are service stations with fuel and propane in town. It was easy to make reservations online with only a few days notice.

$20 to use the dump? Most are free. Sad to see they're definitely just taking advantage of people's situation.

This is awesome park, owners are great individuals. You are very close to Capital Reef National Park, and Fish Lake. Lots of hiking near by and if you are a ATV rider many trails for you to discover. They have bathrooms and laundry room for your convenience, they are both very modern and clean. The Wifi is great too. We enjoyed our month stay in this area, also grocery store in walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.Thanks for awesome month!
