Capitol Reef Group Campsite

Date: March 18, 2019

Capitol Reef National Park operates the 71-site camp Fruita Campground and the Group Campsite within the Fruita Rural Historic District. The Group Campsite is a secluded site located near the Fruita Campground among the historic orchards and near the Fremont River. Both sites are reservable through www.recreation.gov. 

The Group Campsite is open annually from April to October (exact dates are determined on an annual basis). It is closed every Tuesday and Wednesday nights for maintenance. Maximum occupancy is 40 people. Children of all ages count towards the maximum number of people allowed. The cost for the group site is $100, regardless of group size.

Beginning April 1, 2019, the Group Campsite will be reservable on a 12-month rolling basis starting the day of arrival. For example, on April 20, 2019 campsite availability will be released through April 20, 2020. This change is designed to allow the users greater flexibility with their bookings needs.
