Canyon Rd Dispersed
Good spot to crash for the night!
We rented a van in SLC and needed a quick spot to spend the night on the way to Arches/canyon lands. This was easy to find at dusk with a clear road. LOTS of trash around. You could hear the highway a little bit but the noise wasn’t too bad. We only saw one other person who drove in and then left. There is a nice big gas station/truck stop about a mile away open 24 hours so we went there to use the bathroom and get gas. Not sure why this post calls it Canyon Road. It’s off of Consumers Road then Dump road. We did have service with T-Mobile and Verizon.

Great area. Fun mountain biking trails. Couple of spots with fire rings. Only issue is someone is “camping” in their car right by the day use area, a non-camping area.

Lost Creek Campground
Cute, convenient and lots of space!
This campground has many spots! They were all clean and convenient. If you stay on the northern side of the campground, expect to hear cars and trucks through the night. I stayed in spot 31 which was spacious and right next to a little stream. The lake is close by and accessible by a trail in between two campsites. I heard a pack of wolves howling right around sunset but seemed a decent distance away. Definitely chilly at night time, but that’s expected this time of year. Highly recommended :)

Dispersed Camping Willow Spring (Not in Moab)
Rocky Rough Road
Great dispersed camping area with plenty of room! If going all the way to the marked location on the map, only attempt with a high clearance 4x4 or you will not make it! We have a TRX and overland camper and bottomed out on a culvert that dropped off sharply. We went to the marked location only to find a single camping spot on a moderate slope. Recommend stopping two miles earlier in the “Big Glade” meadow, flat and plenty of camping spots. We ended up a mile before that at a cross roads at 8900’. Concur with the ATv traffic from previous reviews, but overall relatively quiet

Beautiful Resevoir
The campground was quiet and clean and host was fantastic! We stayed at campsite C19 and it was perfect with some shade for our tent which was great. Steps away from the reservoir which provided glorious sunrises! Bathrooms were close and clean, running water and flush. We opted to have dinner at the marina cafe and it was convenient and delicious with a great staff! The entrance to the reservoir from our site was a bit murky but if you have a watercraft of sorts then it’s smooth sailing, convenient and water was clear.

Soapstone Basin Dispersed Camping
Very busy, but beautiful
It was easy to find and the road can be a little scary when wet. There is a couple of miles with pretty rocky roads so i wouldn't risk a low clearance car. It was extremely busy when we went, but managed to find a spot mostly to ourselves. No bathrooms, primitive and huge families with atvs and dirt bikes everywhere nearby. They were polite and had reasonable time for no noise. Cool pathways to walk or ride on and very nice views even though most the wildflowers seemed to have just finished their blooms.

Promised Land Resort
RV Park off the beaten path
The road to get here can be interesting if you’ve never been. I wasn’t expecting a dirt road right next to the river. You don’t need any special vehicle though and as soon as you get to the resort, it is GORGEOUS. They have a couple playgrounds (one is better than the other) and lots of open grass area. The swimming pond was a great place for my kids to play. I randomly tried this resort and it will definitely be one I go to again.

Fossil Valley RV Park
Nice little park
We enjoyed this little RV park. It was quiet and well maintained and just off the main road making it easy to walk about parts of town. Vernal is a nice town with several interesting drives and sites nearby. This RV park is a good launching pad for day trips!

Currant Creek
Great place, but terrible road
We loved everything about this place. The sites are in great condition and very clean. The flush toilets were a plus. It is a little bit of a jaunt to get to the lake, but it is worth going to for fishing, kayaking, paddleboards, or swimming. There are several ATV/OHV trails in the area. The camp hosts said that we could have our SxS in the campground as long as it was street legal, and they didn't charge me an extra vehicle fee. The two things that made this review 4 stars is the dirt road is a washboard mess. Basically, had to roll in 4-wheel drive in the lowest gear or I would have been shaken off the side. The second were all the cows that are allowed to graze through the campground.

Mountain View Campground — Fred Hayes State Park at Starvation
Great views of the lake
Pull through and back in sites available. The back in sites are right on the edge of the hill that leads down to the water. Water and electricity. There’s a place right outside the park to dump your tanks.

Wasatch National Forest Moosehorn Campground
Great spot next to a picturesque lake
We got site 12, which worked great for us. The site has 3 spots for tents ranging from 3 person to 6 person, but we used the parking space because we have a giant tent
The north end of the loop by the lake is the best spots. 16, 17, and the others right by the lake. I’d avoid the spots closest to the highway, not because of the noise, but because they’re VERY sloped, kinda looked hard to set up there.
Pit toilets, so be prepared for that.
Bugs weren’t to bad honestly. We had a fire going and Thermacell so mosquitos didn’t bother us.
Moosehorn Lake is GORGEOUS. We didnt fish but we heard it was good fishing.
This site is maybe 1 mile up the road from Mirror Lake which is a must-see. Very easy walking trail around the lake, perfect for small kids
The site host was great, very helpful, nice person
It was PACKED tho. Every single spot was taken when we got there and we got lucky finding a spot for 2 nights. Try to get a reservation if you can. We only got in due to a last minute cancellation.

Currant Creek Rd Dispersed
Dispersed camping overlooking Currant Reservoir and Creek
Plenty of dispersed spots along the ridge road. Most have easy pull in access and fire rings. Beautiful views from multiple spots along the ridge but comes with the expected exposure to wind/sun. More privacy for the spots further along the road some nestled in beautiful aspen groves. It is a great area. We camped overnight and fly fished the currant the next day. It was July 4 weekend but still not crowded.

FLIES!!!!!!!
Swarming with bugs, yes it's outside, THE FILES THOUGH!!! Spiders, bees, grasshoppers galore as well. Our dogs were swarmed with flies, so we're we. Can't spend more than 30 seconds outside during the day without being COVERED in flies.. maybe higher up has less, but our vehicle only made it a little past the fork to the right.

Aspen Grove (uinta-wasatch-cache National Forest, Ut)
Gorgeous views, very clean, little prairie dog buddies
We took a 21’ bumper pull to a double RV site and had a super great time. Site 46 on loop B is so good, double RV spot, right by the bathroom, tons of extra room for a tent if you want one
Toilets flush! Honestly one of the best bathrooms I’ve seen.
The northern part of loop B is really close to the dock if you’ve got a boat.
We had a couple prairie dogs and chipmunks visit our site. Didn’t bother us, still wary of humans, but they were fun to watch

Bull Mesa Pullout
Off Dump Road
This spot was a little hard to locate because it’s on trust land and the spots look like junk piles. Yuck! There was so much ammo casings on the ground it looked like a war zone. Obviously the locals use it as a shooting range and do not clean up after themselves. We went on down dump road a little bit and found a spot tucked in the canyon and out of site of the road for a little wind break and privacy. I added that location because it was not as bad. Still to much trash laying around though. I don’t understand why people can not take care of these free resources so they are not taken away.

Dispersed Uinta Campsite
Open space, nature and road noise
Plenty of spots on an easy dirt road, campfire rings and lots of space. There's so many birds and critters so you get the nature sounds but it's close to the road so there's road noise all night. Beautiful space. I think I heard a moose in the night-possibly not, but possibly?

Great overnight stop
This is trust land so you will see where a lot of people come back here to target practice. Sadly they do not clean up any of their trash. The area is nice, large and very private.

Nine Mile RV Resort
Very clean and convenient
Stopped for the night on the way to Colorado. Very easy check-in via the Web. There are a ton of very well developed sites. There was one other camper we saw that came in a little later than us.
We would stay here again.
We did have a minor issue that the 50a service breaker wouldn't reset even with nothing plugged in. But we simply used the 30a which was plenty for us with the relatively cool weather. We let them know the next day and they said it would be checked.

Wasatch National Forest Soapstone Campground
Great campground with great activities nearby
This is a great Basecamp to explore the Uintahs. Note that there is no easy river access from any of the sites we explored. This is partly due to the overgrowth and partly due to all of the water in mid June. We made it from our camp spot (#11) but it required crossing logs, bogs, streams, and bushwhacking.
That said, it’s a clean campground in a great setting. The sound of the river drowns out most of the highway noise this time of year, and it’s a great jumping off point for exploring the lakes and falls farther up the Mirror Lake Highway.
Note zero Verizon cell service in the campground.
Didn’t see the campground hosts once in a 3-day weekend stay (always a nice little bonus).

Large almost level paved parking area. Good modern rest rooms. Good picnic tables with displays behind rest rooms. Dedicated dog area. Bring ear plugs due to big rig generators and infrequent train horn. Several RVs and big rigs parked here during my overnight stay.

CO2 Road Dispersed Campsite
The Purple Sands
This camping spot is a good place to stay if passing through to Salt Lake or to Moab. There is not much out here; however, the gas station before Wellington, is nice! The gas station has amazing coffee, and we discovered it has showers and laundry. The gas station also had firewood for sale out front.
The camp spot has a couple of fire rings. You can still hear the traffic, although not terribly bad. There is broken glass in the surrounding area so be aware. Avoid this spot if it is raining at all as it will give your tires a nice coat of slick mud; even an off road tire can get stuck with this kind of sticky mud!! On the upside it’s a remote camping spot, and the shrubbery offers a good wind break.

CO2 Road Dispersed Campsite
Easy night of sleep
Found this area on the way through and decided to stop. There are plenty of trees around for firewood, the top 2 to 4 inches of topsoil are soft, which is nice for leveling out your camping in. There’s some ready stuff on the bottom but nothing I had to put, my rig into four-wheel-drive for. Make sure you get far enough away from the highway or you will hear the road noise that never stops. There are places to camp all over throughout the area. I left early the next morning and saw four other people out and about.

East McCoy Flats dispersed
McCoy Flats BLM is a mt bike focus recreation area with a network of excellent nonmotorizrd singletrack trails. Dispersed free camping allowed, and currently there are several nice vault toilets scattered along the main access paved road.
This camping area is at the third new vault toilet. Lots of room for large TTs. No trash dumpsters and no water, but cell signal is excellent 5g five bars. Only few miles from main hwy on an old paved pothole filled road. And then only 3 miles back into Vernal and a Walmart on this end of town, so logistics are very good.
