Very pleasant site

The view of the surrounding snow packed peaks was beautiful with the new June green grass.  Site was somewhat flat.  Dry camping.  Shelter with picnic table.

Better than we expected. Missed the turn into this little gem, and traveled across the dam to the pay CG across the lake. That one needs work. Unless you absolutely must have utilities at the site, pass on the pay CG, and stay at Beaverhead. Large, flat gravel pads (our 43.5' TH fits fine), not crowded, and almost every site has a firepit and ramada over the picnic table. The host is very friendly, and directed us to the best site for our rig.

Quite in the spring

We stayed here on a 1 night stop over on our way to moab. We crossed the dam and found an entire campground empty. Very basic but quiet. Woke up to snow on the ground.

Wonderful Spot on the Reservoir, but not Much Shade

This is the spot to camp if you plan on spending most of your time here out on the water!  It seems like the entire west side of the campground where it meets the water could be used as a boat ramp and offers nice easy access to the reservoir for any age!  It is also the campground that is closest to the interstate (read busiest)  We were there on a Tuesday and almost half of the campground was full.  I can't even imagine what its like on a weekend let alone a holiday.  

The campsites themselves are pretty basic.  A fire ring and picnic table are at each of the sites with vault toilets within walking distance.  There are pretty much no shade trees so plan on bringing an umbrella or something similar to keep yourself cool.  If you cross over the dam to the west side of the reservoir you'll also see a sign that is exactly half way between the north pole and the equator!

Sits on the lake

Great view of the lake! Nice campground, very open & spacious sitting on the shore of the lake. Pit toilets, no electricity, & no water we could find but very very quiet.
