Best Dispersed Camping near Dutch John, UT
Spring Creek Road Dispersed camping areas near Flaming Gorge offer waterfront access with level sites large enough for various camping setups. The dirt access road is bumpy but passable for most vehicles during dry conditions. Fire rings mark established camping spots where visitors can camp directly on the shoreline. One camper shared, "Easy dirt road, pulled 34 foot toy hauler with no problem. Enough space to turn around at the end of the road."
Northeast Utah BLM Land provides additional free backcountry camping options with multiple pull-out spots approximately one mile off Highway 191. These sites offer surprising cell coverage despite their remote setting. According to one visitor, "Not too far down the road off the highway, this spot was easy to access for my 35 ft trailer and extended cab truck." Jug Hollow Road leads to more dispersed camping on a peninsula extending into Flaming Gorge, though the access road becomes significantly more challenging with washboard sections and ruts. Most dispersed areas allow fires in established rings, but campers must pack out all waste as no facilities exist in these primitive locations.
