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.
