    Watchman is booked, of course. Which one after that?


    Right across the Virgin River from Watchman is a private campground with full hookups. You should be able to get into that one; sorry don't remember the name but you can see it across the river from Watchman. It's in the town of Springdale.

    Inside the park, is Watchman Campground. It has partial hook ups.


    That's our preference. It's the only campground inside the park Electric only though.
  • Zion itself is a zoo.... felt like an amusement park to me. We stayed at Zion River Resort a few miles down the road and I was glad to be able to get away from the hoards of people every day.
  • I prefer staying in the Park in the Watchman CG. Some sites are 50amp. There is water and a dump station.
    Just a short walk to the Visitor Center and the shuttles.
