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.

It wasn’t busy and the camp spots are further away than most in the area.

Our family reunion this year at Soapstone Campground in mid August was incredible. This marked our 20th campout since 1993. Over the years it has morphed from 2 to 3 days to just 7 hours this year. As our children and then grandchildren have grown it has become difficult to schedule a good time for everyone. So this year we got everyone together about the same time with our traditional Mountain Breakfast. Then the guys took off for 4 hours catching and releasing fish all up and down the Provo River. The rest of us hung out on the banks of the river, enjoying the sounds, wildflowers, and butterflies that we always look forward to. We took lots of photos. Then we returned to camp and prepared our traditional Hoagie sandwich lunch. The guys returned hungry with lots of funny fishing tales. We had prepared a photo album containing five or six photos from each of the previous campouts, and as it was passed around, we shared memories that we had not heard before from each othr. Then we packed up, gave hugs all around, talked about next year, and drove off in our separate directions.

No camp host to control late night music, dogs off leash everywhere. But the sites were clean and restrooms decent for pit toilets. No water available. One faucet would be nice. But that is the main reason won’t be back here.

Nice campground with paved road and spurs. Some tight turns for trailers longer than 26 feet. Some spurs require you to enter the loop backward in order to get your trailer backed in. Would be nice if there was water available in the future. Overall we will be coming back in the future.

Soapstone is a nice CG not too far from Kamas, Ut. The Provo River runs nearby and we enjoyed exploring along the river. I would stay here again. The CG is just far enough off of Highway 150 and the trees are dense enough that you hardly hear the highway noise.

We had the best time at soapstone! It was the perfect location for our long day hike, and then when we returned back to the campsite, we had entertainment all evening long from a family having a get together there. One lady was yelling all the family drama to the whole campground! The host was very friendly and helped us find out spot, and the campground was lovely and clean. It also has a lot of trees and privacy between camp sites.
