Everything was great except they kept only stocking the bathrooms with one roll of toilet paper. They also didn’t seem to enforce the tent or car limit and the campsite next to us got pretty crowded with 3 tents and 3 vehicles

Canyon Rims Campground is a fantastic place. Be aware that the Forest Service is working with the contractor, American Lands and Leisure, to resolve a camp host issue. I arrived to a site with no reserved sign on it.

The campground itself is a wonderfully spaced-apart natural setting close to the rim of Flaming Gorge. We arrived at our reserved site to another family all settled into our spot. There were no signs posted for the reserved sites so they thought it was first come - first served. We let them know we had it reserved, and they were quick to move out. Another campsite next to us had the same issue of people in their reserved spot. For 24 hours there wasn’t any toilet paper replaced in the outhouse. The only time we saw the camp host in our campground was 10 at night when he went speeding through the campground.

There was a little confusion about which site belonged to whom at the outset, but Jordan ironed that out and we had a pleasant stay at a wonderful campground. It included a visit by some bighorn sheep as we dined at our picnic table. Quite a highlight of our trip.
