Currant Creek Campground is praised for its beautiful surroundings, clean facilities, and accommodating hosts who are helpful and friendly. Many visitors enjoy the spacious sites and family-friendly atmosphere, making it a great spot for camping and outdoor activities. However, concerns have been raised about the road conditions and maintenance of restrooms, especially due to water shortages affecting some amenities.

Overall experience at this campground was good! There was decent tree coverage at our site which helped to separate us from other campers, but it didn't offer much shade. I'd say about half of the sites did have adequate shade throughout the day, though. My one major pet peeve was the noise. It seemed to be a popular campground for families, so we heard kids screaming all day. Although the sites were privatized by trees, the actual distance between the sites isn't that much, so we heard entire conversations from the campers at each site around us.
The bathrooms were nice and kept very clean. They have flush toilets, and in the women's restroom there are two stalls. Water spigots around the campsites offer clean water for drinking and rinsing off. It's a beautiful area with lots of little wildlife running around. We had a great time watching chipmunks and squirrels bounce around the trees. They never bothered us or tried getting into our food. We didn't use the boat ramp, so I can't comment on that, but we did drive down to it. It looked functional enough, and there was plenty of parking.
The on-site managers seemed a little gruff, and weren't exceptionally nice when we met them. It's not really a problem, though. Their little camp entrance "store" has ice and firewood for purchase. We never saw them checking campsites to verify registration, so I don't think they do much monitoring.
MAJOR COMMENT: there is zero cell service here! We have TMobile, and it is a 45 minute drive all the way back down the mountain to be able to make a call. We almost had an emergency where this would have been a big issue, but we were luckily able to avoid it.
Regular ole campground overall!

From Heber City, Utah, take Highway 40 east for 45 mi to the Currant Creek Junction. Turn off the highway and travel in a northwest direction approximately 17 mi to the campground. The road from the highway is paved for 10 mi and graded gravel for 7 mi.
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 mi 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 mi 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.
Currant Creek Campground is accessible via US Highway 40, which is approximately 22 miles from Heber City. From Highway 40, the campground can be reached via FS Road 082 after turning onto Coop Creek Road.
