The camp hosts are always amazing and so friendly. They let us visit their campsite often to check out the wildlife and let the kids visit the fairy garden at night. The campsites are always clean. This is our favorite place to camp!

We love this place. It's our favorite of all since it's so close to home for us in Midway, Ut. The camp hosts are always the best and happiest people to meet. It's clean and green.

Let me tell you this... the camp host makes the camp! And, the camp hosts at the lower Smith and Morehouse campground are the greatest! We started coming up in 2019 and have never had a better experience. They wave at you as they go by, stop to chat and attend to our every need.
I can't say enough about Deb and Del! They are unique individuals and keep the grounds in top condition.
One of our favorite places!
