This is one of the best run campgrounds in the Uintah's. The bathrooms are kept clean and there is real sense that the camp hosts love this beautiful part of the mountains. We love spending time here: fishing, reading, playing games, cooking outdoors, hiking, watching the eagles, and enjoying the beautiful pine and aspen forest.

Lake water levels were surprisingly higher than expected, fish were biting, campground was quiet and clean. Bathrooms were clean and stalked and the hosts were awesome! Love this place!

Great experience at site 47. Extra long table and plenty of space for two large tents. Open meadow next to the camp site provides more space between one side of neighbors. Easy walk to toilet, lake, hiking trails.

I've camped here many times (Utah local) and the lakeside sites at Trial Lake are some of my favorites. Bonus the pit toilets are clean and well maintained. No cell service here and honestly I like that sometimes!

the great campground hosts make sure that the grounds are as well maintained as possible and the bathrooms are very clean. Had good fishing for Tiger and Rainbow Trout.

Beautiful campsite in the Uintas. Very short walk to the water edge. The fishing was good. The fish were small, but a lot of fun to catch. The campsite was tidy and for the most part easy accessible with a good fire pit however, conditions are such that I opted to not have a campfire. The restrooms were close and well stocked with the necessities.

Great site, but really had to spread out to find decent spots to place a tent as there weren't really any tent pad spots that were flat enough. Five minute walk next to a beautiful lake. Bathrooms were clean whilst I was there, but the door slamming did have its moments of nuisance (though it was not severe).
