Our stay at Sharp Creek was absolutely perfect. Couldn't ask for a cleaner or quieter Campground. The Camp Hosts were amazing. Making sure that the grounds and the restrooms were cleaned twice a day. As soon as a camp was vacated, they were there within minutes to get it ready for the next guest. I would highly recommend this camp ground. Can't wait til our next camp out.

Sharp Creek is a wonderful place to camp. Spacious sites with asphalt pads, metal picnic table, firepit and BBQ grill. Spotless vault toilets and water spigots spaced every 3 or 4 sites. Donna and Sam are great camp hosts and keep whole campground spotless, including cleaning picnic tables. Close to nice lakes, Payson and Heber.
Love to camp there.

This campsite is always clean and cozy. As tempting as it may be to pitch your tent under trees, it is required that you pitch it in the tent spot. We made this mistake twice.

My family and I had a wonderful first visit to this camp site. It was clean and quiet and the camp hosts are so extremely friendly and welcoming! We will definitely go back. Lots of hiking area to explore around the site. Easy drive to Horton Creek for a great hike and splash in the creek. Highly recommended!

We absolutely loved this campgroud. Spaces are level and far apart, lots of hiking and exploring without needing to get into your car. Watch out for cow poop! free cows roaming everywhere. Wish they had hookups, but otherwise all was great
