Page - Lake Powell Campground

It was nice place to camp in close by to Horseshoe bend and Antelope Canyon.

The staff here is very nice. The park itself is sort of split between the lower level which is mostly long term sites and the upper which is mostly for overnighters. This is a great spot to stop overnight on the way to someplace else and people do, tons of rental rv's with tourists from all over the world. The park has good amenities such as cable tv, laundry, fitness room, pool and spa and free wifi. I only used the laundry and wifi, both were good. The location is great for access to town. My favorite thing about staying here was Antelope Point Marina is a very short drive, kayaking Lake Powell, Antelope Canyon was a spectacular experience.
I have mixed feelings of where or not I would stay here again. My site was not very level, if I were to pull in for an overnight stay I would prefer to be able to simply pull in and be done with it. There are many other places in the area that would probably be more scenic. Overall I can would say anything bad about Page Lake Powell Campground.

The weekend after Memorial Day the park was only about half-full. When I made the reservation I told the campground we did not want a site with cable TV. They said that was all that was available. The same when I registered. There were at least 5 sites without cable vacant all weekend. It appears they want the extra fees. The indoor pool and hot tub are nice. The game room equipment is well worn and you had to pay to use the machines and pool table. Landscaping was nice and they have some well watered trees to provide shade at most sites. Verizon signal was great for phone and hotspot (the campground also has free unsecured WIFI throughout the park). They accept AARP and Good Sam discounts as well as others. They have a small camp store and the cheapest postcards we’ve bought in years. (Five for $1) There is easy access in and out of the park entrance. When you enter the park follow the big yellow arrows straight ahead on the pavement to park and register. The roads in the campground are paved and the sites are gravel so there isn’t much dust and dirt tracking in your RV.

This was just an overnight stop since it was hot and we needed electric. It actually wasn't a bad place, with fairly large sites with nice desert landscaping but they were not very level and we had to move from the one we were originally assigned. We stayed in the water/electric only sites but we also used the dump on the way out, which you have to get a key for in the office. The site we ended up in, 26, was right on the road so it was noisy but our A/C drowned it out.
We did make use of the laundry room, which had about 10 each of washers and dryers, and was very reasonable. The fitness room also had good equipment and quite a bit for a smaller RV park. Very nice showers, too.

It is just a couple miles from Walmart and other shopping, and a few miles to Lake Powell and the Glen Canyon Dam. Very convenient location. We had 4G Verizon but it was quite slow and we were apparently too far away to connect to the park's wifi.

Date of Stay: May 2015

Noisy with wide sites. Crappy cell service. Noisy. That about sums it up. Want more details? Fine…

I needed to stay in Page proper for a few nights, so the campgrounds at Lake Powell Recreation Area were out of the question. That left the Page Lake Powell Campground, as it is the only game in town.

This is an uninspiring commercial RV park, like so many out there. However, I was pleasantly surprised how wide the sites are - I stayed in the water and electric only section, which is on the north end of the park. This place was so uninspiring that apparently I forgot to take any pictures, which is extremely odd for me.

The park was fairly noisy as it is right off a main road. What further lead to the noise was the RV park is at the bottom of a hill, so vehicles were accelerating up the hill. In other words, staying there means you are recipient of vehicles at their noisiest.

As this is the only game in town, it is incredibly popular with all the rental RVs that are in the Page area. A tremendous amount of people would just stay there one night. In and out. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing - simply an observation. :)

I wouldn't stay here again. If I had to be in Page, I would make every effort to stay out at the National Recreation Area.

NOTE: While both AT&T and Verizon have very strong signals here, the service is about useless for Internet. It was beyond slow. If you need to work, you will have to hit up one of the local cafes or coffee shops, or head to the library.

We found the hard way that it's important to be very clear about your rig when you call to make your reservation.

Over the phone, we were told we had been assigned the last site long enough for our 5th wheel, but when we arrived, we caused a minor panic in the office. The site was only appropriate for motorhomes that could pull in forwards, and they fretted that we wouldn't be able to make it into the site.

We did, but not without hitting a few branches--and a short-bed truck probably would've jack-knifed. Moral of the story: be very clear about your RV and its abilities before you book.

Now for the good... it's conveniently located, near Page, the lake and all the other amenities around. There is a short but scenic hiking trail along the back of the park, and a cute playground for kids. After the initial confusion, we had a really nice stay here.

One word of warning: Verizon signal looks really strong here--and it is. But it is S-L-O-W. Don't plan your week of teleconferencing in Page!

We needed someplace to set up in a hurry with fhu and in town as we were catching a tour to Antelope Canyon. The check in process was a bit slow but our site was fine. We were here in June 2015. They have a nice nature trail and all hook ups worked.
We would stay a night or 2 again. We are camping in a 30ft TT with one slide

I needed to be in town for my photography workshop, so I put the solar panels away and plugged in, overall not a bad experience. Price was cheap ($20 for electric and water), sites are clean, bathrooms and showers are decent. Staff was easy to work with. It is located right next to the highway so you will hear cars constantly.

Be aware that if you think you can come to Page and work online, forget it. No fiber has been piped into the town, and what they have is overloaded to the max. You will be lucky to get 1mbps, most of the time it is below .5mbps, this goes for everything in town, wifi, Verizon, ATT, so plan on being mostly disconnected. Of course the wifi here is unusable.

Decent RV Park, sites have enough space between them (for an RV park). Front desk staff was friendly and nice. $27 a night price reflects Good Sam FHU Rate. They do also have a W/E only rate that's a little less, but there weren't any spots available when we booked.

AMENITIES:
The Indoor pool and hot tub were clean and nice, not real big but big enough when we stayed. Didn't do any laundry here so I can't attest to that.

ACCESS:
We stayed here to visit Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend; both of which are only a few minutes away.

INTERNET:
You can get decent Verizon cell signal (2-3 bars) here but the actual speed was horrendous. I averaged around 1mbps on Verizon and maybe 3-4mbps on AT&T. The park has wifi but it was also really slow.

EATS:
We did eat at El Tapatio in town which was really good, it was a long wait for our large group of 13 but worth it. It's a really small place.

Overall the park was quiet and maintained and we would stay again if we were in the area.

We visited Page over the Memorial weekend and stayed at the campground for 2 nights. They offer a 10% discount for AAA members, which we took advantage of.

We chose it for its close proximity to the Antelope Canyons, mistakenly thinking we could bike there from the campground since we were visiting in our motorhome without a toad and didn't want to unhook. In our defense, it looked doable when we looked it up on Google maps! But it was actually a hilly 3 mile ride from the campground to Antelope Canyon so we ended up calling a taxi service to pick us up and take us to and from the site.

We stayed in the semi-full hookup sites: water, electric, sewer but opted for no cable TV. Our site was fairly level on gravel and near the restrooms and indoor pool. The pool was decent, clean and a welcome relief after a long hot day visiting the canyons.

The restrooms were clean although my boyfriend and I each experienced weird situations with the toilets. They would flush slowly, then when you tried to flush again, sometimes it would overflow or sometimes, whoosh, it would flush very strongly. I hope they can fix the toilets as that's why I docked a couple of stars.

There's also a laundry on site and a small convenience store. All in all, an average stay, but I'll stay there again if we were to come back to visit Antelope Canyon.
