Great place just to rest and relax, or bring water crafts and enjoy the lake.

We love Anderson Cove, except for a couple things.
1) years ago they redid a lot of the area, but for the life of anyone who I know, we don’t get why they didn’t put in flush toilets! You can smell them all over the campground! Disgusting to go into and use. The worse is trying to sit a child on a toilet and have them not touch every gross thing while not falling in. The flies were terrible too, which is usual. Seemed full/needed emptying the whole time we were there. Would have been nice to have showers also added. I know general RV hook ups are out of the question, but they should look into if these things could be added.
2) why not add finished/cemented or asphalt trails down to the beach? There are already trails, but made from people getting to the beach, but to carry beach items, it’s quite a feat. We have wagons to get things there, and it’s always difficult. It wouldn’t be much to add decent trails. People with young kids or the elderly trying to get to the beach can be a challenge or even dangerous. To spend the day there people need to haul shade, coolers, chairs, etc. We need decent trails.
The campground is pretty full on the regular and is difficult to get a reservation, and now to get a site last minute, now there’s people standing around waiting to see if they got a place that night. It seems they wouldn’t be hurting for funds. Why not pay the loyals back by updating these items. PLEASE!!
Other than that, this is our yearly family spot to camp. Love the workers, always friendly. Love the beach at Pineview. Love that the campground spots have shade.
PS, you may as well let dog on the beach, they are always there anyway.

Campsites are well developed, large, and plenty of shade. Boat ramp access to the reservoir is great. Staff is always friendly. The only negative I can think of is they only have pit toilets.

I love this campground right on the water of Pineview Reservoir. There are sites that look directly out over the water and there is a beach area. There is a little store on site that I just discovered had free coffee. What a nice touch! The sites are nice and level and most have some shade during the day. The only con of this and other campgrounds is the check-in time (3:00) and check-out time (12 Noon). You get there late in the afternoon to set up and have to start packing up in the morning if you only have one night. Also, online this was the only site I could book and only for one night, however, sites all around me were empty the night I was there.

The site was clean and ready for our arrival. We had a great experience with the Utah Rec people ensuring quiet hours were enforced and the other guests seemed respectful of others. We went Tues-Thurs so that probably helped the quiet and busyness levels. We had a great time! The only things I didn't care for was the grass on site was really just weeds which wasn't very soft or pleasing to look at and our campfire's concrete ring was very damaged and could use repairs. Other than that, bathrooms were nearby and clean which was a plus and we had a fantastic time! We will be back.

We ended up arriving late and Ron, the camp host, was very accommodating in getting us to our yurt.
I'm giving this place 5 stars because of the people who where hosting the camp ground.
The lake was warm and fun to play in.
