✏️ General Feedback / Review:
We spent two weeks at Ruby’s Inn RV Park & Campground, and it turned out to be one of our favorite stays in southern Utah. The location couldn’t be better—just minutes from the entrance to Bryce Canyon National Park and walking distance to everything in Bryce Canyon City.

Over the course of our stay, we really got to settle in and explore the area at a relaxed pace. We hiked many of the trails in Bryce—taking in all the amazing Hoodoos and scenery while also letting the kids earn their Junior Ranger badges at the visitor center. Having the shuttle pick up right at the campground was a huge bonus for those day’s when the park is congested.

Ruby’s Inn made the perfect base camp for bigger adventures too. We took scenic day trips to Kodachrome Basin, Devil’s Garden in the Grand Staircase, and the stunning slot canyon hike at Willis Creek. One day we made the drive out to Capitol Reef—long but totally worth it for the views, orchards, and quiet trails. With two weeks, we never felt rushed and could really appreciate each place we visited.

Back at camp, evenings were peaceful—cool breezes, beautiful sunsets, and incredible stars. The kids loved having space to play, and we appreciated the easy access to groceries, gas, and restaurants.

Ruby’s Inn Campground gave us time and space to really experience Bryce and its surroundings. We’d absolutely come back!
