Unlike most modernized campsites, this place still provides a sense of remoteness. The downside is the wash-board dirt road leading up to the site. Also, the site is showing signs of much needed improvements. Despite these negatives, this place is definitely a hidden gem!

We came to camp as an extended family and this was the perfect spot for it. There were plenty of places to roam and areas to play in. Everyone from the grandparents to kids had a great time. We taught some of the young kids how to fish.

We always have fun at Currant Creek. Even if the fish aren't biting.

Excellent campground, well maintained. Clean and sites were well separated from each other. Boat launch was also well maintained. Beautiful spot.

They should pave the road to the campground. The last few miles were very very washboard and should be paved

I have gone to Currant Creek every year for more than 50 years. I love it there. I go there with family for excellent camping and fishing experiences.
Location Currant Creek
Address:
Wasatch Cache National Forest
Heber City, UT, 84032
United States
From Heber City, Utah, take Highway 40 east for 45 miles to the Currant Creek Junction. Turn off the highway and travel in a northwest direction approximately 17 miles to the campground. The road from the highway is paved for 10 miles and graded gravel for 7 miles.
Stay on the most traveled road. When there are Y's in the road, stay on the road on the east side of Currant Creek, following the Creek to the dam. When you get to the dam, follow the road almost all the way around the reservoir, and you will find the campground near the southwest end of the lake, a short distance from the dam.
Alternate Route:
Take US Highway 40 from Heber City and travel approximately 22 miles southeast to FS Road 082 (Coop Creek Road). There is a Coop Creek sign on the north side of Highway 40. Turn north (left) at the sign and travel approximately 8 miles north. At that point there is another sign for Currant Creek Campground. Turn right at the sign and travel approximately 6 more miles east and south to the campground.
