  Wagons West RV Campground

  Dated but inexpensive

  No concrete pads, just gravel with grass and picnic tables between. The landscaping looks a little overgrown. The fencing around the small dog park isn’t secure.

  Office and laundry facilities are closed on Sundays. Bathrooms are small but clean with one toilet stall and two shower stalls each.

  Full hookups and pull through spaces. Wi-Fi is available but we didn’t test it.

  It’s a very quiet place. Fillmore has a Best Western with a golf course, a few gas stations and a Carls Jr.

  Painted Rocks Campground — Yuba State Park

  Big rig friendly

  There is not much to do in the area and the lake is seriously low, but it is a great place to park for a night or two if you want peace and quite and you have a big rig. We have a 42 ft motorhome and a separate pickup with a 6x12 trailer and we fit both in a pull through sie and it looked like there was another 40 feet available. We were in campsite #2 but it looks like there are other sites that are quite long. The site was level with water and 50 among power.

  Monroe Canyon RV Park

  Brand new RV park, long & wide sites, FHU, wifi and amazing mountain views

  Let me not lie. We were up near Salt Lake City, we were waiting for WY to warm up a little and i wanted to get Starlink- but the area we were in was oversubscribed. I stumbled across this RV park while researching and called- spoke to the owner, Jordan. He is the nicest bloke, ever obliging, polite and a delight to deal with. He is a genuine guy who will do well for himself(I do sometimes get tired of the jaded hosts at other sites who feel like they are doing you a favor) We are so glad we stumbled across this gem of a park, as this has been most pleasant. For example. The are 100% sold out for Memorial Day weekend, but Jordan has offered that we can dry-camp as i finish out the work week. We are 30 foot 5th wheel, with solar and LIPO batteries(in fact, some days we ran off of solar completely except for those times we needed heaters or air-conditioners running.) OK, enough background. First.. The beautiful red barn is the building that has laundry, bathrooms and a functions venue. They actually rent this out for weddings, reunions or whatever occasion you wish to celebrate. This is a brand-new RV Park, big spacious sites with new utilities- full hookup at about$41 a night- with delightful 360 degree beautiful mountain views- the further ones still capped in snow. The sites are all very large pull throughs, so we would not have to unhook if we did not need the F250 to roam the area. The site is wide enough to park your tow vehicle next to your rig if you were so inclined. The full hookups all worked perfectly. There is wifi that was more than serviceable, it was good when i tested it. I was experimenting with my Starlink- which worked great here. My Visible and my Verizon worked great for data also. Cricket was great for phone calls. T-Mobile had good download but miserable upload speeds- hardly conducive to Teams calls. The facilities are great. About 5 washers and dryers. Laundry and shower are coin driven, but well worth the price. The park is so new that Jordan was planting trees at some sites this week. We travel extensively around the states, and intend to stop here whenever we are anywhere nearby- we want to watch this park grow and mature. Sitting outside having a BBQ watching hang-gliders over the closest mountain range is a great way to end the day. Highly recommend this RV park, we will return! We loved the whole experience at Monroe Canyon RV Park. As an added bonus, all the locals are so friendly.

  Castle Rock Campground — Fremont Indian State Park

  Comfortable campground close to I-70

  Castle Rock campground in Fishlake National forest is one of two campgrounds that serve Utah's Fremont Indian State Park, with both administration and reservations handled through the Utah State Park system. When I visited it was both very clean and very well maintained. Despite being close to the interstate, it is far enough up a side canyon that you do not hear the traffic on the road. It feels like being much further from civilization.

  There are 44 camp sites available, many alongside the creek that flows through the campground. About 2/3 are reservable, the rest are available daily as FCFS. Two have teepees for those lacking a tent. Several are double sites for larger groups, and there are a variety of pull through vs in/out options.

  There is available potable water at several locations around the campground, and two restroom facilities - a full flush unit near the center of the grounds, and a double pit at the south end of the loop.

  Every site has a fire pit, an elevated grill, and a picnic table.

  There is an access road from the campground to the Paiute ATV trail. For hikers, the south end of the campground is the north origin of the Joe Lott Trail that heads into the Fishlake National Forest. The facilities of Fremont Indian State Park are about 1/2 mile away, on the opposite side of I-70, and include a small museum of Fremont life, and a variety of improved and unimproved trails leading to many rock art sites.

  Sam Stowe Campground — Fremont Indian State Park

  Ranger Review: Travelers Autobarn Campervan at Fremont Indian State Park

  We spent a fun day exploring Cedar Breaks National Monument. However, we lost track of time, the sun was setting and we had not chosen a place to camp. 

  Campground Review of Fremont Indian State Park:

  We searched on TheDyrt app for nearby campgrounds and found Fremont Indian State Park. We drove down the mountain and around another mountain and found the campground. It was totally dark by the time that we arrived and so we quickly parked and set up our campervan to sleep. 

  A gentleman emerged from the shadows and approached our site. It seemed a little sketchy at first. However, he ended up being friendly and inquired if we’d like to join him and his friends around their campfire. After we prepared our campervan and cleaned up a bit, we dropped by the campfire. It turns out the party included some park staff and researchers. One lady was researching dark skies and one gentleman was researching astral alignment with ancient rock art. They shared about their research and showed us some of their amazing photos of the night sky. A warm way to end the day.

  The next morning, we woke up to snow on the ground and the nearby mountaintops. Having learned from our new friends that the park contained some pretty significant rock art, we decided that we should check it out. We hiked on a couple of the trails and discovered quite a few of the rock art pieces created by the Fremont Indians. There's an easy trail that is located adjacent to the park office. There are other trails that run along the river. It is amazing that so much of the rock art was in such good condition.

  The campsites provide the basics like a parking space, picnic table, electrical & water hookup and firepit/grill. The restrooms were conveniently located close to our campsite and were clean. There are showers behind the restrooms. During the winter the showers may be closed. The campground is somewhat small, but is surrounded by beautiful mountains and bluffs. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

  Product Review of Travelers Autobarn Campervans:

  As a Ranger for The Dyrt, from time to time I am provided products to test. For this outing I was provided a Travelers Autobarn Kuga Campervan. 

  For more info: https://www.travellers-autobarnrv.com

  The best thing about traveling in a campervan is the ease, flexibility, and ability to make detours if needed. 

  We picked up our Kuga Campervan in Las Vegas. The Travelers Autobarn office is just west of the the main strip and easy to find. We arrived early in the day to begin the registration process and campervan orientation. The process was quick and easy. The Kuga Campervan is a hightop van conversion with couches, a table, two beds, propane stove, sink, water, kitchen, interior lights, fan, window shades and solar power. We also had the free living package which included kitchen pots, pans, utensils, cups and accessories. It also included sleeping bags, sheets, pillows and towels. The package pretty much made it super easy to get in the van and go. 

  The Travelers Autobarn staff member was super friendly and provided an orientation of the basic operation of the campervan. The campervan drives like a normal van, but learning about the camper functions was helpful. 

  We had charted a route around Utah and Arizona visiting a number of towns, parks, roadside attractions and hot springs. The day that we started a weather system passed through which made the temperatures drop in the northern part of our route. We simply flipped our route to avoid the cold weather and traveled the southern route first. By the time that we circled north the weather had warmed up and it was perfect weather for exploring. Traveling in a campervan made it super easy to be flexible with our route and schedule. 

  On our seven day trip we visited Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, Horseshoe Bend National Monument. Monument Valley National Park, Arches National Park, Mystic Hotsprings, Zion National Park, Cedar Breaks National Monument, Meadow Hotsprings, Valley of Fire State Park and Fremont Indian State Park. 

  If we were not traveling in a campervan it is unlikely that we would have had the flexibility to camp anytime and anywhere. We would have never found and stayed at Fremont Indian State Park. It ended up being a gem of a park and a great overall experience. This campervan camping adventure opened up my mind to new opportunities and travels. So much fun!

  Millsite State Park Campground

  Nice, quiet, very small SP with scenic views of the lake and canyon

  We have a 36’ Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site MI08 for 3 days in mid June. We left our boondocking site in the Grand Staircase-Escalante NM to get electric and water hookups because the temperatures were climbing into the 100’s in the area. The sites are nice, but closer together than most SP CGs, although the pull-through sites are angled, so you’re not looking in your neighbor’s windows and there are some trees between them as well. AT&T coverage was fair, with 2-3 Bars of LTE service and speeds up to about 2 MB/s. There were a few tall trees at each of the sites, but there were gaps between them, so we were able to get DISH coverage on all three western satellites at our site. There were zero OTA channels to be had with our fixed omni antenna.

  Castle Rock Campground — Fremont Indian State Park

  Great view, quiet, and relaxing

  Family stopped to check out on the 3rd of July and there were many open spots. Had a 29' toy hauler and the roads in camp were good for us. There were a few pull through spots that made it easy.

  Oasis Campground — Yuba State Park

  Good location for rockhounding

  Stayed here when rockhounding. Work remotely so needed cell service and this place has good verizon LTE. Nice large sites, BBQ and campfire pit. Shaded picnic area. Super windy at night, not sure if it’s the time of year or the norm. Late october - winterized for the season so no potable water or flush toilets but there’s still vault toilets.

  Fishlake National Forest Oak Creek Rec Site

  A Hidden Gem

  Traveling east along US-50 "The Loneliest Road in America," we were seeking somewhere to camp after leaving Great Basin National Park. We stumbled upon Oak Creek Recreation Area quite by accident, but such a rewarding accident it turned out to be. It must be the best kept secret in western Utah for camping.

  Oak Creek campground is located four miles east of Oak City, Utah. It is nestled in a canyon in the Fishlake National Forest. We arrived at the campground late afternoon June 5, 2023 and had our choice of ANY campsite - we were the only occupants. We selected site 19, a back-in site at the end of the loop that runs through the campground. The site is less than 100 feet or so from Oak Creek which runs parallel to the campground. The site is level and easily accommodated our 18-foot travel trailer. Using our Senior America the Beautiful pass, the cost per night was $8.00 and worth every penny. In addition to this campsite, there is additional camping further up Oak Creek Canyon Road for tents, RVs, and trailers - access is via a well-maintained dirt road beyond the campground we stayed in.

  Highly recommend this campground for peace and quiet!
