Very beautiful colors in the fall, pretty good decent size park for a day picnic with camping on the other side of the parking, picnic tables and 1 huge gazeebo can fit several family size party. Provo river right next to it, lots of matured trees with shade. View of mountains all around the park, perfect for a day trip.
We really appreciated the clean, stocked porta-potty situation, and how many were available. This is a great short hike with kids as young as 4 (and grandma, too!) with plenty of space to socially distance but still get your feet in the cold mountain water of the falls. Only thing missing from this space is more immediate places to have a picnic - though happily just east down the road is a huge picnic area with its own bathrooms and small river (Canyon Glen picnic area I believe).
What a lovely park! Right next to a river, little grills built into little picnic spaces with fire pits and tables. Nice grass. Its really kind of perfect!
Small area for many campers and 2 day limit for tents .bike boards jogging trail run along side of camp.right on the river with access to bathrooms. nice attentive hosts. absolutely go again.20 a night very affordable
Best things about Nunns:1. Right by the Provo River2. Right by the Provo River Trail3. Lots of tables with grillsIt is pretty similar to the other parks which are a few minutes up Provo Canyon. It seems like there is always parking and space for your group to hang out.
Excellent place.. low key... Need better traffic management to enter/exit & separate tubing packing... Folks are going to have bad accidents..
Its a great place to go. Shady, clean, easy to get to, and pretty. Its nice having the river right there, but that also makes it more dangerous with kids. Nice to have the waterfall near by. The bathrooms are clean, but they dont flush. Its a big hole and I prefer flushing toilets. When you sit on the toilet cold air comes up, which is kinda gross.
Beautiful canyon, and this gets you in and close to the road for easy access. Good if you want to wander around the canyon.
Nunns Park is a little known park on the way to Bridal Veil Falls up Provo Canyon.Not quite far enough up the canyon to get out of the heat but far enough to get out of the valley congestion and into some great forest trees and right next to Provo river.Take the Bridal Veil Falls trail exit and turn left to Nunns Park entrance. Its full but not too full.Lots of trees, BBQ stands and picnic tables with lush green lawns everywhere.Very enjoyable.Have fun.
Great place for hammocking! Or grab the cooler and outdoor games to head to any of their parks. Well kept areas and calm, relaxing environment
Love going up the canyon. And it’s a great bike ride. Nunns park is right at the base to the trail to bridal vail falls. There is a great park in the center for kids. Open table and barbecue pits. There is also a small campground with hookups. Provo river runs through the edge. It’s always really clean and beautiful whenever we go.
Beautiful, open grassy field with trees to sit under and picnic tables and firepits to sit at and eat. Right by the Provo river, so you can listen to the peaceful sounds of nature while you relax!
The area is amazing but when it comes down to service, its terrible. The workers are very rude and have no respect.
Great place for a family picnic....lots of shade kept us cool on a hot day!
Great atmosphere. The Provo river flows right by. Really close to bridal veil falls.
Absolutely beautiful. The hike is very dangerous! It is not for children. Also, take the long way up. We took a short cut path to go to the top and it was incredibly dangerous. It was straight up and down and had rock slides. I highly recommend making the climb though. It is very shot and well worth it.
Spectacular canyon with beautiful falls. Great place for a bike ride, hike, picnic
Nunns Park is a nice campground. It has good shade. However, since it is next to the main road running up Provo Canyon, it gets quite noisy. It has no electric, water, or sewer hookups either. The biggest drawback is that it is first come, first serve. Other than that, it is quite nice. It is also on the Provo River Trail, so bring a bike.
Great place to bring a dog, go for a walk, picnic, bike ride. As we went on a Sunday it was also pretty busy. Go during the week if you can.
Great little picnic spot just a few minutes from the mouth of the canyon. Restrooms, pavilions, drinking fountain, grills, grass, and lots of trees and parking right next to the river.
Very fun and close place to spend a weekend tent camping.
The stream was nice and cold the grass was cool and in the shade it was lovely
Multiple pavilions, tables and firepits with plenty of parking and a playground too! We had our wedding reception here years ago and we love going back for family and friend get togethers or just for a picnic.
Nice sheltered campground/canyon picnic spot.
Location of first 44,000 Volt hydroelectric plant in America, built in 1897. Clean bathrooms, can rent overnight camping spots for $20.
Would NOT recommend!Positive.. close to townhowever canp hostsAre rude & do not maintain grounds loads of debris in area..
Nice little park. Lots of shade and access to the river for fishing.
This is a really good campground with easy access to the trails nearby.
Asked my old lady to marry me there...several decades ago. Went back for old times sake. Still married so maybe its a good spot to ask...just kidding. Tons of fun though. They got the river the falls across the road and camping among lots of other things.
Well- maintained, shaded, and great amenities
Really nice park just down the road from Bridal Veil Falls. There are nice group reservation areas here that are well shaded as well as other picnic areas. The river runs right next to the park. There is also a nice camping area with a bathroom with flush toilets. The only downside is the road noise from the highway nearby, just something to be aware of when choosing your campsite.
This is my go to place for roasting hot dogs any night of the week.
Even though the rules stated we could have 2 cars they made us move one clear out in the bottom parking. Very inconvient.
Great, peace mountain park for a picnic!
Beautiful space and camping here is inexpensive. Really nice place to enjoy anytime of the year and lots of shade for the summer months. It’s usually pretty quiet as well and close to bridal veil falls.
I love Nunns Park! Ive been going there for different reasons for decades with many more to come hopefully! And I am currently at nuns park with my family and we just walked to the bridal veil falls overlook. It was great and Im a happy boy and happy to be currently looking over bridal veil falls.
Great place for a picnic and bocce ball.
Great place for a picnic or camping. Went here with my son and it was the best 2 days we have had ever. You can go fishing from your tent. Its that good of a place
Love this park so much.
This park is in a beautiful area, but its also right next to the busy highway, so its pretty noisy. The Provo River Parkway goes right through this park and we were almost hit several times by long boarders careening around the corner and down the slope, so be careful and watch your littles.
Breathtaking! Its easily accessible, has a paved trail that is kid/dog friendly, incredible views of bridal veil falls, options to hike steeper more strenuous trails. Has some parking available but not a ton.
Pretty but close to the road so noisy.
Easy trail. Place for family
Perfect walking/running/biking/longboarding trail. Wide enough for groups. It is decently shaded and has nice views of Bridal Veil falls. There are picnic tables and grassy areas perfect for group activities.
Fun park for the whole family!
Nunns Park has a paved trail that leads to Bridal Veil Falls. So so beautiful. Easy to get to, plenty of parking
Paul the worker there was super kind and patient with a bunch of us having a birthday bonfire! Totally a great place to be! River is a little high when it rains so be watchful of your little adventurers
Love this place!
Its small but beautiful, good to take the kiddos camping for one night by the river, bring bug spray in summer and reserve a spot some spots they dont allow you to pitch a tent, no grass or too close to river. Slept in back of truck with kids
Does anyone know if they do same day reservations?
Very pretty park with lots of space for picnics, activities, and fireplaces, close to the Provo river.
So busy; I wish there were more seating near the falls; GORGEOUS.
I am the camp host at Nunns Park. We take pride in keeping our park and restrooms clean. Nunns Park is a beautiful tree shaded park nestled beside Provo river. Camping sites are only $20.00 a night and on a first come first serve basis. Come visit us this season.
The beauty of nature. Not the most breathtaking scenery there is but its worth going to. Now if you overstay your welcome, sort to speak, youll be charged for it. We stayed past the cutoff time of 1:00 PM to go hiking and came back to see a lady waiting for us. The fact that we had to pay an extra $20 bucks didnt bother me. Its the fact that she seemed really annoyed for us staying an extra THREE hours.. on a regular Sunday afternoon.
Its a grate place to go for a family get together. We had a baptism to celabrate. So many peoplePlenty of room.. a place for a fire and a covered pavilian. We took quad chairs to sit around the fire. We had lights too. Plenty of parking. Clean.Our state parks are beautiful.......
I took my young sons up for a bike ride. Passing under the viaduct is unsafe. Patrons of the park use the shoulder of the road under the bridge for parking. It would be helpful if it was made into a no parking zone. Then families or individuals on foot or bike could travel safely on the shoulder between bridal Vale and Nunns.
We did the Bridal Veil Falls hike. Our family, with a mix of little and middle kids, loves this hike and especially the cool reward of splashing in the water at the end.
Good place for camping
The park area is beautiful and the Falls are magnificent but the RV parking should be described as tent only. Not enough space for anything bigger than a van.
When Bridal Veil Falls is too packed, just cross under the bridge to Nunns Park. Ill admit, you dont get the beautiful view of the falls from this park, but youre right next to the river. If youre close enough to the river, the sound of the water drowns out the cars driving by on the road. I came to this park last week when I wanted to get away from the apartment for a while.
Beautiful place to hike, easy hiking, with optimal moderate difficult hike to falls... there is a few ways up to the falls...go left and then circle around!
Super great place to have a BBQ on the weekends. Keep in mind, it can get quite busy on Saturdays when the weather is nice. Its next to a nice little stream as well!
It was clean and peaceful. The road to the falls was not open however so I will have to return and take photos. I do have some video footage on my YouTube channel, Killian Frost.
These mountains are just beautiful. Spring and the snow melt makes for alot of streams and water falls. The dog and I enjoyed the drive up.
Hiked to Bridal Falls, trail is to the far left of the viewing area which would have been good to know. Marked by a sign, beautiful falls at every level.
Great for picnics, bridal veil falls, hiking, biking, running, ice climbing
To really cool place to visit its super fun I recommend it.
I loved the scenery, running the path, visiting with people, picnicking, take pics or videos of water, trees, mountains and relaxing! Just relaxing and enjoying!
Such a beautiful little park. We put up a hammock between the trees and just took a nap outside and it was incredible. The view of the mountains. The river nearby and bridal veil falls across the street, just a perfect place to be with nice weather.
Beautiful and serene. Very cool place to relax and enjoy nature.
Very clean with no reservations needed
Great place for camping, its just a short walk to bridal vail falls.
Got married to the love of my life here.
Awesome camp host. Lots of shade. BBQ grill, fire pit and picnic table. Beautiful river to one side of us. We loved our stay and kids loved the playground. Close to bridal veil falls. We saw a deer across the river one evening.
Great place to go walk, run or walk. Very beautiful particularly Bridal Vale Falls.
Very clean and nice. Close to the highway and town. In walking distance of Bridal Veil Falls. Campgrounds are a good distance from each other.
Wish we could get our money back. We followed all of their park rules the host gave us, but the large group next to us violated parking rules (with way too many cars), number of people per campsite, quiet time at 10 PM (with loud music, singing and loud voices), fireworks for their kids, and they even carried around burning sticks that they lit on fire like torches. When we talked to the host about the problem, they said they would take care of it. Nothing was done other than making them move some of their cars. The obnoxious behavior and noise continued until 12:30 AM. (2 1/2 hours after quiet time started....not to mention the enormous about of smoke that came billowing our way during that time.) It seemed like all the hosts cared about or were willing to do anything about was the number of cars. We were even told to move OUR car, when it wasnt even ours. It belonged to the large group that kept parking their cars by us. Nunns Park isnt a place I would recommend or even try a second time. Not worth the money we paid to have hosts that dont care about the experience of the patrons.
Best bathrooms in the canyon
Nice place.
Great place for a picnic
Great place to escape with the family and spend the day having a picnic or BBQ clean areas and clean bathrooms
Its a good place to go running, camping, hiking, hammocking, etc. Good atmosphere and well maintained.
Its a campground park. Nothing to it. Very small. Other places are far better.
Love this camp grounds, especially for camping in the fall. Close to hikes, river, and bike trail.
The restrooms and pavilions here always seem to be clean with plenty of water sources to have family reunions. I especially like how theres enough picnic tables to set out your food. Ive been here on 3 different occasions and have never been dissatisfied with the service.
