Gateway to Uintas
Stayed here over the weekend for 2 nights in July 2022. Great campground with super clean vault toilets (they got a bit smelly during the afternoon but overall very clean). We stayed in site 19 as it was the last one available when I booked a week prior. Would’ve preferred a different site because 19 is right next to site 20 which is a double site. There was a big family group there who were very friendly, but left their generators running ALL night for their big trailer. I was in a small pop up trailer with my dog & boyfriend. My boyfriend & I hardly slept. It was clearly posted on the camp entrance sign that you can’t run generators from 10pm-6am. Other than that, great campground close to the creek & a good jumping point for hikes in the Uintas. Lots of other dogs there too which made my dog happy.
Pleasant spot
Lilly pad campground and some other sites further up were closed for the season so we ended up here in a first come first serve spot. Very pleasant, would have picked a spot right on the nice little river. Definitely go across to the fairy forest - it’s literally right in the campground. Didn’t have a working water spigot near us which was a bummer. Vault toilets were some of the worse we’ve (smelt). Very very nice hosts and lots of shade
Hidden gem
This camp site surprised me, good location for driving to various hikes in the uintas, a nice river runs along several of the camping sites. Worth checking out. I stayed at site 10 and it was close to a water faucet which was nice.
