Sandcreek RV Park is a perfect metaphor for this area: rugged, carefree, native. It offers the basic services including good wifi but that's it. Perfectly enough. You won't need anything else because you are going to spend your day outdoors exploring the vastness and wild beauty of the area

I rented a cabin just after sunset when the weather turned bad. It was very basic but clean. Heaters worked great. Lacked a table or chairs for eating inside. Luckily I brought my own and set up camp til the rain passed. It was cozy. I cant comment on the bedding as I used my camping blankets and sleeping bag on top. Restroom was close by and also clean. Intentional low indirect lighting in the park made viewing the Milky Way a real treat. After a week of camping it was the first clear night for star gazing. Great authentic Mexican restaurant right next door.

Anna was so amazing such a gracious host! We tent camped and stayed in a cabin; the bathrooms were quant, clean, and warm and the cabins had great on-demand heat and a comfy bed. There is a great pavilion with string lights and tables and even a telescope to check out the stars which are amazing to see. Its a quick drive to the entrance of the park, about 10 min then 15/20 to visitor center and trailheads. All with a backdrop of the gorgeous red rock cliffs that just glow with each sunrise and sunset! 10/10 would recommend and go back!

I stayed in the cabin for 2 nights while visiting Capital Reef NP. I highly recommend staying here. The bathrooms were warm and clean and the cabin was incredibly cozy! Overall just a great experience.

The website advertised laundry, but it was unavailable when we arrived. The campsites were flat and well groomed. The tent sites even had wind shelters. Overall, it was a great and well maintained facility with friendly staff who are fantastic with their COVID protocols. The staff and owners clearly take great care into this facility.

I love this place!!!!! We stayed in a non electric site in our van. The bathrooms are small but very clean with nice clean showers and flush toilets. Our site was only $20 and it was right by a spigot. I absolutely loved the owner!! She was so sweet and friendly. Also, there is service and wifi. I would definitely come here again.
