Fishlake National Forest Doctor Creek Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Fishlake National Forest manages Doctor Creek Campground on the shore of Fish Lake, a high-elevation reservoir in central Utah. Sites run from mid-May through early September, with a camp host on-site collecting the nightly fee. Some sites overlook the water directly. Anglers and boaters use the lake regularly, and reviewers note the campground draws enough visitors that solitude is not guaranteed. Trails along the river are within walking distance. Amenities include drinking water at both potable and non-potable stations, toilets, picnic tables, and ADA-accessible facilities. Dogs are permitted. The nearby Doctor Creek campground sits 0.3 miles west for campers wanting a slightly different configuration, and dog-friendly campgrounds near Fishlake National Forest provide additional options across the broader area.

Beautiful Spot

When all the other campgrounds were closed, we found this one and we’re very happy with it. $15 a night to be paid to the camp host. We didn’t have an electric hook up at our site, and didn’t see many sites that had them. Our site over looked the lake and was a very peaceful campground. Short walk to the trails a long the river. A few campers had fishing boats to take to the lake. We would’ve stayed longer if we could have!

Great Amenities

We were able to fill our water (both potable and non potable stations!) Great place to do dishes or even wash up... which we did after a week climbing and no lakes/creeks/rivers.

Nice views and a great escape from the heat of the valley!

Dogs are allowed too.

Fishing, boating.. really it has a lot of activities. No solitude though, of that is what you are after.
