About
Iron County campground on 155 acres inside the 6,000-acre Three Peaks Recreation Area north-west of Cedar City, a base for mountain biking, rock crawling, and picnicking on the surrounding public land. 17 first-come, first-served sites for tents, vehicles, and RVs, each with a covered picnic table and fire pit; no hookups and no electricity, and water is seasonal. Pay at the pay station or by the posted QR code. A group campsite of about 1.25 acres with its own pavilion, six tables, and grills is reserved in advance, as is the day-use Bulloch Pavilion. Camp only in designated sites; pets on leash at all times. The broader recreation area is managed with the Bureau of Land Management.
Fees
Group campsite $60 per night for up to 100 people, $90 for 101-199. Individual sites are paid at the pay station; the county does not post the nightly rate online.
