Sunglow Recreation Site

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Fishlake National Forest's Sunglow Recreation Site sits at the edge of Bicknell, Utah, with just six single sites arranged in a cul-de-sac about a mile from the main road. That layout keeps road noise minimal and makes stargazing viable on clear nights. Reservations are available, and the $20 fee covers picnic tables, fire rings, and trash service, though water availability varies by season. Sunglow Campground lies 0.1 miles east for campers who need more options nearby.

Great view, peace and quiet, flush toilets and running water for $20.

I appreciated that fact this is in a cull-de-sac about one mile away from the main road. That made for a quiet night. Stargazing is out of this world. Get hear early because there are only 6 single sites. $20

Middle of nowhere goodness

This little campground is nestled right in Bicknell, Utah. There’s only a few spots but the view is beautiful and walking distance to a well-trafficked hike. The water was shut off and bathrooms locked when we stayed, but the stream nearby was useful! Would highly recommend if you’re in the area, and make sure to stop by Marinia’s Country Cafe if you’re driving through.
