We typically enjoy camping in National Forests and Buckboard had decent facilities. Though it seemed like somewhere teens from town fled to. The beautiful aspen trees had a lot of graffiti etched into them, which was sad to see. The campsites were a decent size, but we’ll plan farther in advance and stay in Canyonlands NP.

Incredible setting in aspens with clean bathrooms. We find that we are enjoying smaller campgrounds like this that has minimum amenities for the RV folk. Get tired of listening to generators all day and nite.

Great campground! The trees were beautiful and the sites were private. Clean bathrooms.

This is a beautiful park, small and quite. We very much enjoyed our stay. Out site #6 was very steep, so we'll select a different site next visit.
If any work is scheduled for this park, site #6 needs to be dug into the hill more so that it is not so steep. It was really scary in our 5th wheel. We could not even come close to leveling the trailer.

Clean and beautiful campsite! The mountains outside of Monticello, Utah are absolutely gorgeous and full of wildlife! We saw tons of turkeys, squirrels, and deer. We also saw a bunch of cattle too. A high elevation campsite nestled in the woods surrounded by pine and aspens. Super pretty! Got cold at night but not too bad for September. Picnic table, fire ring, grill, tent pad, and very clean pit toilets. What more could you ask for! I used to hate paying for campsites but as I get older it is nice to know a reserved one is there waiting at the end of the day! Grab yourself a burger at the Granary in town, get a six-pack at Maverik, and head up to this beautiful campsite. Well worth it!

Beautiful small campground with adequate privacy. Clean bathrooms and water. It really doesn't feel like you are 6 miles out from the main town. Still close enough to Moab to enjoy Arches and other outdoor activities. We enjoyed walking around Lloyd Lake in the evening. I will absolutely stay here again!

Great, quiet campground in the mountains offered cool nights after hot days in the high desert! Sites are well-spaced apart.

Absolutely gorgeous campground with aspens and deers.
The driveway is a bit bumpy, but very doable.

Buckboard was awesome! The camp was super clean. The campsites were spaced out nicely. This was our base camp for Arches and Canyonlands. It was much cooler than camping in the Moab area. The drive was 50 mins to Arches and 1.5 hour drive to Canyonlands.
