Washington County, UT Curfew Laws: Park Curfew (2026)

Washington County Code of Ordinances section 5-4-5, the prohibited-activities chapter for the Kolob Reservoir Facility, sets the campground's quiet period at ten o'clock (10:00) P.M. to seven o'clock (7:00) A.M. under subsection F. During those hours, and at any other hour without the County's approval, no person may operate loudspeakers, amplifiers, or public address systems inside the facility; the ordinance treats amplified sound as something the County must sign off on first, not merely something to keep down after dark. The rule sits inside a broader set of prohibited-activity provisions: subsection A makes ignoring camp host instructions grounds for permit cancellation or removal, subsections G and H require a special event permit for entertainment, tournaments, or any profit-making activity, and subsection I authorizes the County to seize, discard, or impound personal property, including tents, vehicles, and trailers, left at a site for twenty-four hours or more or after a permit expires.

Camp hosts, who under section 5-4-1 oversee day-to-day upkeep of the campground and campsites, are the on-site presence most likely to flag a quiet-hours complaint, and licensed law enforcement officers hold jurisdiction under section 5-4-8 to act on it. Because the ordinance is framed as quiet hours rather than a gate closure, the facility is not described in the code as locking or closing to visitors overnight; the restriction instead targets amplified noise and sound systems between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.
