Best Campgrounds near Roy, UT

Several campgrounds and RV parks provide cabin camping options near Roy, Utah. Bridger Bay Campground at Antelope Island State Park offers cabins alongside tent and RV camping, with full hookups and amenities including showers and toilets. Anderson Cove, located about 25 miles east of Roy in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, features cabins and yurts with picnic tables, fire rings, and access to water recreation. North Fork County Park in Eden also provides cabin and yurt accommodations with more primitive amenities and no water hookups.

Many of the cabin facilities require advance reservations, particularly during the peak summer season from May through September. Antelope Island State Park maintains three separate campgrounds with cabin options, though availability varies seasonally. Willard Bay State Park, approximately 15 miles north of Roy, offers cabin rentals with electricity and nearby water access. Most cabins in the region have concrete pads, picnic tables, and fire rings, though specific amenities vary by location. "Very nice campsites with teepees available in the next two very large stocked freshwater pond we're taking trails," noted one visitor to Fort Buenaventura Park.

Cabin campers report mixed experiences with comfort and proximity to natural features. Sites at Century RV Park provide cabin options with more extensive amenities, including electric hookups, showers, and WiFi access. A visitor remarked that it was a "clean place, lots of amenities, and great staff." Riverside RV Resort offers newer facilities with cabin accommodations in a convenient location between Ogden and Roy. However, several reviews mention ambient noise from nearby transportation corridors. "We stayed for two nights, and it was a good stay. The utilities were in the perfect position," commented one camper. Sites at Hill AFB FamCamp provide military personnel and veterans with cabin options at reasonable rates, though these sites typically lack shade and natural features compared to forest service or state park locations.

    Bridger Bay Campground — Antelope Island State Park

    Beautiful but gnats are bad!

    This campsite is like being on another planet. The scenery is beautiful! But we came in early April and the gnats were UNREAL. If the wind died down at all, we and the dogs were swarmed. I had gnats in my mouth, nose, ears, everywhere. But aside from that, the campground was great. Showers were private, clean, and had plenty of hot water. Would love to visit again outside of gnat season.

    Dry Hollow Campground — Echo State Park

    Peaceful

    Echo Res is a peaceful stop after crossing NV and the Salt Flats of UT. The camp site only has one other camper in it during our stay. We have water and electric hookup. The sites are all pathed and we did not need to do any leveling in site #9. You can hear semi truck going along I-80 but they are in the distance. The park is in between the reservoir and a pathed road, so there is some road noise but not much at all, not enough to disturb us. The beauty of the water and sound of birds and light breeze outweigh any negative. Each site has a covered picnic table and fire ring. And the sites look to have 25-30 feet between them.

    Belmont Hot Springs RV Park

    Decent

    We stayed here as we were passing through on our way to Moab from Washington. Decent camp sites. Easy to pull in and nice staff. Gravel roomy (as far as RV camps go) and clean camp sites. Shower and laundry and nice and clean. Hot spring is fun, not terribly hot, maybe 97 degrees when we were there in early April.

    Century RV Park

    Will do in a Pinch

    This was an easy and convenient place to pull over when exhausted from SLC traffic. 

    Full hook-ups, hot shower and no privacy between sites. 

    Served its purpose as a good place to rest before moving on.

    Rowdy

    It’s a pretty rowdy spot you’re right in the middle of all the ohv that is happening. If you’re looking for something chill this ain’t it. Also the campsites were pretty littered with trash which is a big bummer.

    Salt Lake City KOA

    Winter camping in Salt Lake City

    We winter camped here so we could ski. It’s a great location about 40-50 minutes to 6 resorts. It is in the city so not in the wilderness but all the sites have one tree and a patch of grass and a picnic table. There is a small off leash dog pen and a self dog wash. Also hot tub, showers, toilets that were clean. We did not use the hot tub or the laundry. The campground is well maintained. Our first site was slightly unleveled so we asked to switch and they accommodated that request. We did have to pay a little extra for that site. We stayed a total of 3 nights. We were going to stay longer but learned that you can’t have dogs in Cottonwood Canyon which meant we couldn’t ski at those resorts so we asked to get out of our reservation early and the KOA accommodated that as well.

    Crandall Cove Campground — Rockport State Park

    Great view and good for quick overnight stay

    We had the campground loop all to ourselves in mid October. Sites have a gazebo with table means less stuff to unpack and setup. We just pulled out the tent and camp stove and that was it. Clean and maintained restrooms all close in tight loop. Firepit next to tables. The view is really great and birds are nearby as it seems to be a bird sanctuary. Easy to get to and not far from highway. Star show was good as well.

    Brigham City-Perry South KOA

    Great Stop Over Place

    This was our 2nd time here.  It's in the city, but you'd never know it.  Nice, clean park, friendly staff.  Sites are closer together than what we like but honestly wasn't bothered by anyone around us.  Great central location for exploring in the area.


Guide to Roy

Cabin campsites near Roy, Utah offer year-round access to outdoor recreation in Weber County. The area sits at approximately 4,500 feet elevation with significant seasonal temperature variations. Winter lows frequently drop below freezing while summer temperatures regularly exceed 90°F, influencing campsite availability and reservation patterns at higher-elevation locations.

What to do

Waterfall hiking: North Fork County Park features a hidden waterfall trail accessible directly from the campground. "Had a great stay at North Fork. Camped in the canyon near the trailhead for the waterfall hike. We stayed at campsite 6 which was great, but they were all really nice. Excellent mountain bike trails also," notes a visitor to North Fork County Park.

Wildlife viewing: Antelope Island State Park offers opportunities to see bison, pronghorn, and other wildlife up close. "We saw bison and antelope driving in the park," reports one camper. Another visitor to Ladyfinger Campground mentions, "Within 10 minutes of finding a spot we saw multiple buffalo and a heard of antelope!"

Water recreation: Pineview Reservoir near Anderson Cove provides swimming and boating options from May through September. "This was a really nice place for only being 40 mins from the city. Good beach front not a far walk from our campsite. If you have some water toys it's awesome because you can anchor them on the shore or the dock," writes a visitor to Anderson Cove.

What campers like

Spacious sites: North Fork Park receives high marks for site separation. "This place is favorite spot to camp if I'm staying local. There are so many spots, and they are all very private. The Camp hosts are great! There's a hidden waterfall you can hike too, and a river runs through the park," shares a regular visitor.

Sunrise and sunset views: White Rock Bay Campground offers spectacular lake views. "Hands down the best campground for sunset views on all of Antelope Island! The sunsets in the fall, and winter are the best as the bugs have gone down considerably and therefore you won't get eaten alive," advises a camper at White Rock Bay Campground.

Convenient amenities: Riverside RV Resort provides modern facilities within reach of Roy. "There is a trailhead right down the road that is along the Weber River. Mountain bike or hike, you will have a good time," notes one visitor. Another camper at Riverside RV Resort adds, "We had 30/50a options, WiFi, water & sewer at our site."

What you should know

Bug activity: Biting insects can be severe, particularly on Antelope Island. "It's hard to walk or bike because the bugs are so bad. I don't just mean the odd bite, I mean coated in biting gnats as soon as you go outside your vehicle," warns one visitor. Another camper notes, "Lovely scenery, water is currently off so no showers but has a clean pit toilet. Only downside was the no see um flys you can't go for a walk without getting swarmed by them and bitten."

Seasonal water availability: Services at some campgrounds change seasonally. "Right now the island doesn't have water so come prepared. Electrical hook ups," reports a camper at Bridger Bay. Water systems typically shut down between October and April.

Road access restrictions: Antelope Island gate closures affect late arrivals. "Once inside Antelope Island Park you have until 10pm before the gates close - you can leave anytime but you can't get back inside after 10pm," advises a visitor at Ladyfinger Campground.

Tips for camping with families

Safe environment: Gated RV resorts offer security features. "Very safe and nice spot to stay with kids. Gated entry is a plus for me, and the staff is so kind and welcoming," reports a camper at Valley View RV Resort.

Pool and splash pad access: Hill AFB FamCamp provides recreational facilities for children. "The campground is right next to the base splash pad and a big park," notes one military family. Several resorts maintain seasonal swimming pools from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Group camping options: North Fork Park accommodates family reunions with connected sites. "CW8 & CW9 are great for 5 families because they're connected by a little road, and the very 1st site coming in through the middle gate is great for a small family! Clean bathrooms throughout," shares a regular visitor.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling: Prepare for uneven surfaces at some campgrounds. "Paved sites but not level. I'd stay again but perhaps do my laundry somewhere else on the way in," notes an RVer at Valley View Resort.

Hookup positioning: Some campgrounds have awkward utility placement. "The hook ups (especially sewer) are awkwardly to the far rear of the sites," reports a visitor to Hill AFB FamCamp. Century RV Park receives better reviews for utility positioning: "The utilities were in the perfect position for an RV towing a car."

Off-season rates: Discounted rates apply at many parks between October and April. Brigham City KOA offers significant savings during shoulder seasons. "It's a great, clean Koa that is reasonably priced and has great customer service. It is also skoolie friendly," notes a visitor to Brigham City-Perry South KOA.
