Beautiful, smaller campground, marina is just down the road, attentive and helpful host, bathrooms and showers were very clean and well stocked. We went the 3-4th weeks in September and the campground was not crowded at all. First come-first served sites were all open. We had sites 12, 13, and 14. TONS of tent space in site 12. Great spot. Not so much tent space in 13 even though it's advertised as a double site. 13 is only great if you have campers, cars and other trailers as there's only room for 2 tents, and the fire ring is in a bad spot, right on the edge of the cement pad with a hill drop off on one side, so only room for may 4 people to sit around it on one side. Site 14 was ideal with room for double the cars and trailers and good room for tents, and a big circle around the fire ring to hold lots of people.
It was cooler at night this time of year, (we also go in July) but if you are prepared for cooler nights, it's a wonderful time to go to Flaming Gorge. Temperatures were in the 70's during the day. Incredible fall colors, and the water is still bearable. We jet-skied all day and the water was like glass, fishing was good. Caught some beautiful trout. Highly recommend this campground, but if you're looking for a beach location campground, try Mustang Ridge (Sunny Cove). We had to drive to our "beach camp" from our campground but we didn't mind this.

We camped at Deer Run the first year it opened and try to return every year. It is a great spot in the universe. This year we noticed improvements in the shower building. Our campground host, Sue was excellent. She rakes the camp sites and they are pristine. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the local wildlife. We had another great stay. Thanks for keeping this campground memorable.

Great host, perfect location for our activities. Site #11 is close to the pit toilet and it can smell if the wind blows though.

Showers, clean flush- and pit-toilets. Easy access to the gorge and water access for swimming or boating.
Visitor center for the dam was closed though during reasonable hours.
