Can't help directly with RV parks as we stay at NPS or BLM CG's. But wouldn't advise using Kanab as a base to see Zion, Bryce, and Capitol Reef NPs. With typical delays at the tunnel, Zion will be 1 1/2 hours each way (3 hours every day), Bryce close to two hours (four hours of commuting), and Capitol Reef well over 3 hours each way (probably over seven hours of driving). I'd try to stay closer to each of these parks so you can see them rather than the windshield as you go to and from them.
We explored southern Utah from a location 1/2 way between Kanab and Page, AZ at Paria River Ranch (then named Copper Cloud Ranch).
Overall, we liked the stay but found the drive to get to everything wore us out. I would absolutely do what 4runnerguy says and would stay a couple of days closer to each park vs. thinking you can drive to each.

We like Archview RV park, out of the rat race in Moab, lots of trails to walk the kids.
We have stayed at Archview RV Park and at OK RV Park in Moab. Archiview was nicer and more scenic but more expensive. The nice part about Archview is that it is north of Moab and seemed more convenient to get to most things than when we were at OK RV Park.
