Summary

AI generated

The Green River Float-in Campsites offer a wonderful experience with great wildlife viewing, including sightings of moose, otters, and osprey. Campsites are generally well-maintained, with clean facilities and good amenities like flat tent platforms and fire pits. While some areas may have issues with vegetation or crowding due to guide permits, the overall beauty and tranquility of the river make it a highly recommended destination for camping and floating.

Great camp, plenty of room and shade. Lots of cactus outside of camp. Connected to a smaller camp but had awesome people there.

Stayed at Jackson Creek campsite - clean, spacious, shady grounds with room to fit 10 or more people comfortably. Two picnic tables and a fire pit with a cooking grill. There's no obvious sign saying 'Jackson Creek' that's visible from the river as with other nearby float-in sites, so it can help to have a map of all the campsite locations and to track your boat with GPS.

We had a wonderful trip. The Green River below Flaming Gorge Dam is so beautiful. We floated from the dam and camped at Pugmier Pocket on the first night and then floated to Taylor flat on the second day.

The Recreation.gov site and alerts were very helpful.
