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.

Campground is very quiet. Camp host was friendly. Bathrooms were always clean. It’s also close to many ATV trails and other recreational activities.

The camp sites were miss labeled on your web site. This makes it very difficult to know if the trailer will fit in the site.

We love Soapstone and include that campground in our trips. They keep it clean. The only issue which, is sometimes common with other campgrounds, is the restrooms. It would be nice if they were somehow not so smelly. I don't know if that is possible, but it would be great. The campground is near nice hiking trails and Mirror Lake so there is things to do.

We had a blast at our secluded campsite #14! Although recreation.gov shows this as an exterior site next to the river, it was an interior site; due to the spacious size of the site, its available shade, as well as it being the only site I noticed with a double picnic table, we decided to stay anyways. It is a walkable distance to the vault toilets and trash bin without having extensive passing traffic from other sites. We will definitely reserve this site again!
