Campground Overview
About Sandpit Campground
Rugged red sandstone landscapes and pristine blue waters converge at Sandpit Campground, offering a unique blend of desert beauty and aquatic recreation just minutes from Hurricane, Utah. This no-frills campground caters primarily to off-highway vehicle enthusiasts, with direct access to the expansive Sand Mountain dune system. The campground's gravel sites accommodate a range of camping setups, from tents to large RVs, though the lack of shade and basic amenities creates a more primitive feel.
Situated within Sand Hollow State Park, Sandpit Campground provides a strategic base for exploring the park's 20,000-acre OHV playground and the inviting waters of Sand Hollow Reservoir. The campground's location offers convenient access to both the OHV staging area and the lake's shores, making it ideal for adventurers seeking to combine land and water activities. Despite its proximity to these popular attractions, the campground maintains a sense of desert solitude, especially in the evenings when day visitors depart.
Hurricane's amenities are just a short drive away, while the campground's position places visitors within easy reach of southwestern Utah's renowned outdoor destinations. Zion National Park's iconic red cliffs and slot canyons lie less than 30 minutes to the east, offering world-class hiking and sightseeing opportunities. For those seeking a blend of high-octane recreation and natural wonder, Sandpit Campground serves as an ideal launchpad for day trips or extended desert adventures.
