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!

By far the best Camp host couple we have ever had.
They were always driving through the campground and making sure everything was good.
The Bathrooms were clean and kept clean the whole time we were there.

ALL of your campgrounds need some work done on them. Our friend was in campsite 23 and their was a drop off from the tar. He is 76 years old and nearly broke his leg. Their are drop off’s in every campsite they need to be redone. We love camping their, but it is dangerous. You need to inspect them and see for yourself.

It is a great campground. The reservoir is beautiful and although we didn’t go on it there it looked good for fishing and paddle boarding. We hiked a long trail through a previous burned forest that was interesting with regrowth in process and good views. The campground was well kept.

Deb and Del are wonderful hosts. Lots of little touches you seldom see at most campgrounds. The place is clean and comfortable. Bathrooms are also clean! We go there every summer, except this year, we are going twice

Camp hosts were great. Facilities were clean. It even had water. What a great place for a quick camping trip. The reservoir was beautiful! We’ll definitely be back!
