Campground Overview

About Red Cliffs Campground

Red sandstone cliffs tower above Red Cliffs Campground, offering a striking backdrop for campers seeking a desert oasis just minutes from civilization. This intimate 11-site campground provides a tranquil retreat with easy access to hiking trails, scenic vistas, and fascinating archaeological sites.

Tucked into a shaded riparian area along Quail Creek, Red Cliffs Campground offers a surprising contrast to the arid landscape. The campground features well-maintained sites with picnic tables, fire rings, and shade structures, providing a comfortable base for exploring the surrounding Red Cliffs National Conservation Area. Visitors can enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and wildlife viewing directly from their campsites.

Located just 15 miles northeast of St. George, Utah, Red Cliffs Campground serves as an ideal gateway to the natural wonders of southwestern Utah. The campground sits within the Red Cliffs Desert Reserve, home to the threatened Mojave desert tortoise and other unique desert species. Nearby attractions include the picturesque Snow Canyon State Park and the charming pioneer town of Leeds, both within a short drive.

Red Cliffs Campground caters to outdoor enthusiasts looking for a quick nature escape or a base camp for longer desert adventures. Its proximity to St. George makes it perfect for weekend getaways, while its location within the conservation area appeals to those seeking a deeper connection with the desert ecosystem. The campground's intimate size and natural setting foster an authentic outdoor experience, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the raw beauty of Utah's red rock country.
