There is still no water supply, so plan accordingly. The other unfortunate aspect is the bathrooms they provide get emptied once a week and when it’s hot and busy they’re nearly unusable. With all that being said you’re still paying the same fee as before when they had wonderful facilities.

Beautiful area. Less shade than expected. Reservoir seemed low.

PLEASE Check when booking this camp site!
You need to call moonlake resort next to this campsite to make sure there is not an event going there. They had a wedding event when we stayed. And there was a booming DJ microphone and loud music all through the campsite and forest. Luckily, the lady at moonlake resort and the lady at moonlake group campground did their
very best to get to get the music turned down as quickly as they could. You could still hear the music through the weekend but it was much better after they
did that. But that is not what we expected and not what we paid for.....To go camping in a quiet forest and have all that noise &
music all weekend.
Recreation.gov also needs to change the
dates that they close campsites.There are lots of people who want to go camping
later in the season towards the end of
September, up to the first week of October where there are not tons of kids and noise
and not just fit people into a box that
people only travel during the summer.It's
unfair that they don't keep the campsites
open longer for other people who want to
enjoy more quiet periods and after kids are back in school. This is a wonderful, and amazing camp site but they have issues they need to resolve.

The campsite itself was pretty good. It was very close to our neighbor, but it is it is. Biggest issue were the wasps. Any time we had food out wasps would swarm our site. My son actually got stung by one so that was kinda annoying. There was also a wedding going on at the cabins. The issue was that curfew is supposed to be 10 and their party went well passed 11. I understand it's a wedding and all, but it was just kinda annoying that we had the involuntary enjoyment of listening to Dance Monkey Dance while we were trying to sleep. Lastly, the water spigot was turned off so I couldn't wash my gear or anything before leaving. Overall, I still loved the campsite and recommend it to anyone looking for a good location. But there were still some things that were a bit annoying.

85 West Main, Duchesne, UT 84021 United States
Elevation: 2,670 ft
From Duchesne, Utah, take State Hwy 87 north to Mountain Home, then north 12 mi to the Forest Boundary and Forest Road 131. The campground is about 36 mi from Duchesne on paved roads although some spots have pot-holes.
