Bauer's Canyon Ranch RV Park

This is a hard review to write, because this campground has a lot of promise, but sadly on our visit failed to deliver on all of it. We booked about a week ahead, arrived, and found, yes, we were booked in, and the lady told us our price was $25 a night (cheaper than the $30 we were told on the phone, great!), because 'as I told you, there are no showers'). She hadn't actually told us this on the phone - it makes a difference to my husband, as he is a bit tall to shower comfortably in our trailer, so we would have remembered. No biggie, though, as we weren't in a tent and with full hook-ups could get by comfortably enough for our 3 nights. What we didn't bank on, though, and which we also weren't told when we checked in, was that the laundry is in the restroom block, and was also closed for refurbishment. This did make a difference, as we'd booked into a private site in order to have these conveniences. Having said that, the location is great - very near to Zion National Park, and only an hour from Bryce NP, so we spent our days making great use of that and would recommend the park, as is, for that reason alone. I do think that once the restrooms and laundry are sorted, and if there was a picnic table on our spot (others had one), then we would have probably rated this a 4. It's a really pretty little private ground, the sites are not huge but are big enough, and some, like ours, have views out the back to orchards. The wifi was very fast, so that is another plus. The tent area was not in use when we were there (for obvious reasons), but also looked very pretty, set within an orchard. The people were very friendly, they just gave the impression of not really being ready for guests, despite the park being full on a couple of nights we were there. Definitely one to try if you want the location, just check about amenities before arriving.
