Campground is beautiful - right next to the Henry's Fork of the Snake River. Easy access to river for fishing and kayaking.
Camp hosts have all been great, however you MUST obey the rules, especially about food storage. There are bears that come
through occasionally. Bear vaults are provided.

We have been going to UCP for years. It is our favorite camping location. Half of the spots have electricity. Almost all the sites are along the River, which is beautiful. There are several nice hiking trails along the River plus riding space for ATVs. The fishing isn’t great, the River is too shallow, but tubing and floating the River are spectacular but beware the falls. Since there are only 15 spots! It is difficult to get a place to camp. Reserve early.
