The Basics:
Overall Rating: 4/5
Price per night / Discounts: $48.12 / None
Campground website: Wahweap RV and Campground
Our Site #: C-1
Privacy Rating (how spacious and private do the sites feel):
5/5: As long as you land a spot in loops A, B, or C, you will have fantastic spacing and privacy. The other loops aren't terrible, but the rigs tend to be much closer together. We got a pull through spot in loop C and we never saw our next door neighbors. There's lot of vegetation growing and the loops are terraced into a hill overlooking Lake Powell. Lovely views, huge sites, lots of space between RVs... Just wonderful.
Location Rating (accessibility to points of interest or to major highways):
5/5: The campground is located right on Lake Powell, so if you are interested in getting out on the water, this is a perfect spot. Additionally, you're just down the road from the Glen Canyon visitor's center, the Glen Canyon Dam, Horseshoe Bend, and all the awesome hiking opportunities in the area. If you're traveling through Southern Utah, chances are, you are going to route through Page, and this is a great place to stop when you do.
Site Quality and Big Rig Accessibility Rating (utilities and accessibility of campground hook ups):
5/5: Site quality was fantastic - big, level, concrete or paved sites with huge sitting areas and a firepit. All utilities worked well. The roads within the campground are reasonably wide and easy to navigate.
Technology and Customer Service Rating (online resources, reservations, and staff):
4/5: I was able to request a site online and request one of the loops we wanted, but you don't book your exact site. Luckily they gave us what we asked for though. Customer service was friendly enough and we appreciated that we could receive our mail at the campground.
Internet Availability Rating (Verizon coverage or campground wifi):
1/5: This was the one big downside of this campground. Verizon and AT&T were crap and the campground's wifi quickly became overloaded in the evenings. It was workable during the day, but useless at night. This got real frustrating after a while since we use the internet for just about everything we do. If they would upgrade their wifi, this would be an absolutely perfect campground.
Summary:
This is a true standout campground offering large private sites with lots of vegetation, great views, and nice sitting areas, all in a highly sought after location. We really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it to others traveling through Page. The only thing that wasn't great was their wifi. When you're in a dead zone like Wahweap, having decent wifi is very important and should be a priority. If they would invest in this one area, the campground would be perfect. It's definitely not cheap, but at least you get what you pay for.
