Would have rated this higher if the mosquitoes weren’t so aggressive this year! Come prepared for lots of bug bites! But the water was what we came here for. Paddle boarding was amazing. Would highly recommend this campground and Waldo lake!

Islet Campground is a wonderful place to enjoy the beauty and recreation of Waldo Lake and the surrounding areas. The Campground Manager, Stacy, is very friendly and helpful. (Cute dog, Tripper, too!) Campsites are spacious and vault toilets are clean and smell nice! No need to reserve a site here, especially in July when there are definitely mosquitoes. Bug repellent is a must. If you love kayaking, swimming and/or sailing, Waldo is a sight to see. The clarity is unmatched by any lake I've been in. And I've been in a lot of lakes!

lovely place. I would not use Recreation.gov to reserve any of the sites there. There are lots that are even better than what they list.

- For customer service, contact at 801-226-3564 or [email protected].
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
