Many campgrounds in the Farr West vicinity operate seasonally, with most facilities open from early April through late September. Winter closures affect higher elevation sites, particularly in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest areas. A visitor commented that "very clean and quaint campground right next to a busy interstate that is very noisy 24/7" about South Marina Campground, highlighting how proximity to I-15 creates accessibility but impacts noise levels at some locations. Full hookup sites for RVs are concentrated in the developed state park campgrounds and private facilities like Century RV Park, while more rustic options can be found in county parks.

    Sun Outdoors North Salt Lake

    Really tight

    I am comparing this campground to Valley View RV park in Layton since we were there for a week before we stayed here- there is a stark difference for the exact same price. The sites at Sun Outdoors are extremely tight, the grounds themselves are not nearly as well maintained- dog park while bigger is just stone and not well maintained- smaller dog park mostly weeds.

    Blacksmith Fork

    Pretty but also close to the road

    The coordinates on the map are not exactly right for this campsite, at least in early may. If you drive up the road there are a lot of pull off spots that specifically say no overnight camping, but there is one probably about halfway up the canyon where you can pull in (on the right side when heading up) on a dirt road into a spot that looks like a classic dispersed camping spot with a fire pit good space and a river at the back. It is bordering next to a fence line, but of course not within it. At first we were worried we were wrong in it being a legal dispersed site but we stayed for two nights and never had any issues, including with police officers and natural resource officers coming up and down the canyon as there was an incident at the top. The space does go off into a decently secluded space if you pull all the way to the back but it is right on a decently busy canyon road as people go up to an offroading trail at the top. though it is a bit noisy with the traffic the site is absolutely beautiful with a rushing river right in the back. We personally could not find any other clear dispersed camping sites in the canyon but we can in approaching darkness and were unable to really tell, we were recommended this canyon by an REI worker though so I believe there very well could be more than one site.

    Stanbury Island BLM

    BLM scrub

    Raw land at the foot of the mountain, bring water. No tables, no amenities, quarry down the road. The road changes from old asphalt to rough gravel just past this site. There's lake nearby, but not here. Watch out for ants!

    Great Salt Lake State Park Campground

    Just a over nighter

    Beautiful view of the great salt lake. Very few camp sites for RVs. Looks like there are some long termers. It is a marina. But as for a beautiful sunset... awesome. You can walk down to the waters edge. Was a walk in site for this stay. 20 mins to any restaurants.

    Hill AFB FamCamp

    Adequate stopover location

    Located just inside east gate. Visitors are required to get a pass prior to entry. Camp is adjacent to a park and a busy road. Bathrooms were adequate. We dry camped on a gravel lot. No frills but absolutely adequate and located just off the interstate.

    Green Canyon Dispersed Campground

    Horrible location for peace & quiet

    The drive is doable in any vehicle, the road has many dips/ruts so it is slow going. The area was pretty and green, there are spots available with fire rings. 

    This campground is extremely busy that it is impossible to enjoy a peaceful time outdoors. From the few hours I was there, there were people constantly walking or biking on the road. 

    While I was sleeping, I was woken up by a police officer questioning me. Police will come and question you; be prepared to speak to the police and explain what you are doing there, how long you are there for, and any other questions they have for you. 

    This was the absolute worst campground I’ve ever been to; do not recommend this to anyone who is looking for a peaceful and pleasant experience. 

    You may find a spot that looks nice, but be prepared for vehicles, lots of people, and to be questioned by the police.

    Hyrum State Park Campground

    Small town vibes

    Beautiful boating lake, lots of bathrooms, plug spots and none plug spots, lots of access points to the water, popular fishing destination. Cute town with nice shops and people. Pretty close to other campers, not secluded in any way, and Hyrums farm cow smell is pretty brutal when it’s hot.

    Stanbury Island BLM

    BLM Stansbury Island

    Fantastic BLM spot surrounded by the Great Salt Lake. No services but good internet service. Very quiet. Watch out for the cow patties. This area allows shooters so you may hear them. Suggestion is to not stray too far from the paved road.
