Camping here was truly delightful! The site was fantastic for my three friends and I because it was spacious and we felt like we were adequately distanced from fellow campers. The site was great for pitching our two tents and we had a lovely campfire there. The campground itself was conveniently located to Flaming Gorge Reservoir where we were able to go paddle boarding and explore the dam.

Incredible view, both stars at night and the canyon in the morning. Clean, well kept camp site with good layout and friendly staff. Be aware that a herd of bighorn sheep may cross the campground in the morning.
One of the top sites I have visited.

Very nice campground, clean and tidy. It wasn’t very crowded at all, just a few other retirees :) Nice to have a view of the canyon right there, too!
