Virgin River Canyon Recreation Area turned out to be a really nice surprise. The campground is pretty, with great views of the river and the mountains around it. Even though it’s right off the highway, it still feels peaceful, and it’s a good spot if you want to fish or hang out by the water. There are 108 sites, all paved and pretty spread out, so it works well for both RVs and tents. The restrooms have running water but no showers. Nights run about $15–20. Phone service is pretty limited out here, so don’t count on having much signal. I was there during the week and it stayed quiet the whole time. I liked it and would definitely stay again.

Oh this camp site is surreal, and scenic beautiful. You are surrounded in an amphitheater of mountains. Restrooms are here. Fire pits, and grills are here. Dogs welcomed. RVs can easily maneuver the paved roads in each camp site.

Nice camp. Only $8 per night. Zero to One bar on verizon. Nice pull through sites. We stayed in 33. There are 2 bathrooms in that section with flushing toilets with sinks.

Natural beauty kept and preserved, set aside for all. Me included to savor and enjoy. It appears rough but it shows its tenderness when a desert squirrel runs across the area. Many picnic areas as well as restroom facilities. BBQ pits available for the more adventures. Much to see and a short hike takes you to the Virgin River. Another amazing sight to see. Take a moment, stop and Enjoy !

Very nice recreation area with two campground loops, 108 sites, and bathrooms with running water, no showers. Day pass $2, camping $8 . Truly an oasis between St. George and Mesquite. Well maintained with ADA and sheltered sites. Several trails provide miles of hiking, but the paved loops and entrance make a great walking route. Perfect place to walk dog. The upper loop is noisy because of the interstate, but the lower loop is much quieter and down near the river there's virtually no noise. Some really nice spots with paved pads and fire rings overlooking the river and canyon. Amazing scenery with Joshua trees and cacti where the Mojave desert meets the Colorado plateau with steep walls cut by the Virgin River. It doesn't seem that many people camp here as the place has always been pretty much deserted apart from people stopping by from the freeway to use facilities and stretch legs when I've been there. Really dark night skies. Four trails also just north of exit, two by freeway and two more a mile up the road. You could get 10-15 miles of hiking in easy. Sullivan's Canyon trail from campground crosses the river so be prepared to get wet or remove shoes.
