I loved this campsite very secluded and we definitely want to go back again next year. It’s the perfect place to feel like you’re in the middle of the woods. The guy in our circle bought out all the campsites around us so he could run his generator at night. He left everyday all day long so we had the circle to ourselves. It’s pretty cheep so I’m definitely always doing that. They have a fun ATV trail that we hiked and the perfect trees for hammocks.

It was very hot in Price, but this campground is high and cool. It was at the top of the pass from Price to Duchesne. The road coming in had a very steep place, where we needed four-wheel drive to get to it. It was quiet and had lots of trees. But the camp sites had minimal improvements and were not level. The spot we reserved, we didn't feel comfortable backing into it, as it was small with a steep hillside on one side. We ended up staying in a different spot.

The campground was clean and well labeled. Good amount of room between spots. The vault toilets were cleaner than expected and we’ll stocked. We love camping here!

This is a hidden gem and only about an hour from Spanish Fork Canyon. It was perfect for a weekend getaway. It’s located near the top of a ridge and over looks a beautiful forested valley. We went at the end of June and it was still a little chilly at night. Also, we saw a bear in the campground, so be sure to pack everything away.

We loved the remoteness of the basic campground. It is a little difficult to get to on the narrow road but worth the effort. There were places on the road that I was glad we didn't meet another rig coming the other direction. Most of the way we were wondering if we were even on the right road. An additional sign or two would have been helpful. I did have to put the truck into 4-wheel drive to get up the hill in one area.

This campground has been my favorite in the world since 1954. It is a wonderful place to allow kids' imaginations run wild. Wildlife is abundant and the air is cool. VERY RELAXING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
