This is a great campsite, very well-maintained. Management was available and easy to find, if not at their site. It’s a hilly campground, so my younger children did not ride bikes as much as they had at previous campgrounds. Our site (62) was quite large. My only complaint is the shower building was open from 10a-8p daily—I’d prefer 8a-10p. It’s also located on the extreme east side of the gorge, so plan to drive for most activities.
Sunny Cove is a beach right around the corner. Bring a tube or paddle board and beach toys. I wish I had had water shoes since there are some big rocks hidden in the water.
Other activities we did were a day-trip to Dinosaur National Monument in Jensen (1.5-hr drive). We rafted the Green River from the dam to Little Hole. We rented through Dutch John Resort. This was our family’s favorite activity. And we rented a boat for a day. We chose to rent from Lucerne Valley Marina (1:15 drive) instead of Cedar Springs Marina (15-minute drive) because CSM does NOT allow renters to pull tubes.
Flaming Gorge is an awesome vacation destination! We stayed Sun-Fri in July 2021 and it did not seem crowded.
