This entirely wooded park offers picturesque areas of swamp meadows and a forest of typical second growth mixed hardwood and oak timber. Winter enthusiasts use the park as a starting point for snowmobiling. Travelers on Interstate 80 find the park a nice resting spot to stretch their legs and enjoy the wooded park.

Old and worn out

A dingy place. The ground was swampy the only dry places are the gravel pads in the sites. I wouldn't tent camp here.

On the plus side, strong AT&T and T-Mobile cell signals. (I don't have a verizon device)

Small Campground Close to Interstate with no Established Tent Pads

We stayed in site 6. It was a very small site and had no established spot to put our tent so we actually had to encroach on site 7, luckily no one was there the entire time we were because that would have been awkward - we were literally 3 feet from their fire ring. Everywhere else was unlevel/uneven/rocky/rooty/muddy/etc. They should put in tent pads. The bathrooms were small but clean with flush toilets. No showers. The interstate is somewhat noisy as it's only a few miles away but not too terrible. We really liked the vintage vibe the park had. The park is small with not much in regard to activities/amenitites but nice for just a laidback/relaxed camping trip. We enjoyed just walking around the cabin loop and back roads. There is wood for sale at the maitenance barn for $5 a bundle self serve honor system. Parker Dam is closeby with more to do and a store.

Small, Level sites, Pretty and Great easy trails

SB Elliott SP is a tiny campground with quite a few flat places to take a stroll.  The sites are decently sized for the size of the campground itself, and there is a bathroom at the campground and pit toilets across the street at the picnic area.  There are no showers.  Sites offer a picnic table and a fire ring.  There isn't a camp store, but  I-80 is 2 miles down the road and there are places to shop/eat in nearby Clearfield.  The park is a wonderful place to go for walks as they have fields, forested areas, gravel roads and paved roads.  Parker Dam State Park is also a couple of miles down the road if you want more trails to explore.
