What Guests Are Saying
Soapstone Campground offers a pleasant and peaceful experience, making it a favorite for many visitors, especially those looking for a quiet retreat close to Salt Lake Valley. The sites are well-shaded, spacious, and located near the Provo River, which provides opportunities for fishing and exploring. However, some amenities need improvement, such as restroom cleanliness and the presence of a campground host for emergencies, as well as challenges for larger RVs regarding access to certain sites.

Great camp sight. It's right next to the river, and the bathrooms are right down the road. There's also a ton of shade, and the trees gave us a lot of privacy and protection from the wind.

This was a great spot! The site was fairly big with a fire pit and bench. We were only about 25 yards from the river which was a bonus. The site fit a 17 foot camper and truck, but it was tight lengthwise! I don't think anything bigger would have fit. The grounds were kept up and the bathroom was clean. This was a beautiful spot to stay!

We love Soapstone. It is where we go the most. It is quiet, has lots of trees, and walking around the campground is relaxing. It’s a good spot from which to start day hikes and picnics. We’ll be going again soon!

Campsite was a mess when we arrived. Bathroom was dirty, smelled horrible and not stocked. Camp host no where to be found. Biting flies were out like crazy. Couldn't walk outside without getting attacked. The river was nice and only a short walk from the campsites. That was the only good thing. Will never book here again.

Beautiful campground. Our site (24) had a little branch of the river right behind it, which was perfect for my kids to explore. The site was very spacious and far from neighbors. Be aware, however, that the paved part is really short. We struggled fitting an 18ft. trailer and our truck into the space. A few other sites are much larger, but I saw several where only a small tent trailer would fit along with a car. That being said, now that we know which sites we could fit in, we will definitely be back!

Despite verifying the driveway access to this campsite on the maps, it is blockaded. You cannot drive past site #10. So we had to carry our camp gear, which is substantial, 100 yards to the camp site #9. It should be discounted for this reason. But it is not. Overall the camp site is nice, especially in the evening. The morning and midday sun bombards the picnic tables and anything there. You have to move your coolers to the shade ad find a different place to cook. I got sunburned cooking pancakes, not really but easily could have without preparation. It's a quiet site, and you can follow game trails to nearby streams.

Loved our spot. Not a lot of shade but the driveway was long enough for our small 12 trailer. Lots of room to place extra tents and screens. You can walk to the river from this spot. Saw couple moose on our last day going through the campground. Would definitely go back to this one.

Terrible spots. Said it could accommodate us but there was no way. The spaces were opposite the direction of the road, so there was no easy way to back in either. We ended up having to go find somewhere else to camp because of they layout. Have a good look on google maps before you go.
