Aquarius Ranger Station is located about 15 miles south of Loa, in eastern Utah. It sits on the west side of beautiful Boulder Mountain, which makes up half of the expansive Aquarius Plateau. The station was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1937 and was used by generations of Forest Service employees working in the surrounding back country. Recreational activities abound in the surrounding area. Guests enjoy fishing in many lakes on Boulder Top, and exploring local trails.
Pine Creek Reservoir is less than a mile from the ranger station. This small lake covers three acres, and offers fishing for brook trout. Cook Lake, Miller Lake and numerous additional fishing lakes are scattered across Boulder Top. Many hiking, biking and off-road vehicle trails meander through the surrounding area. The Great Western Trail spans nearly 4,500 miles through five states, and runs alongside the station. Hikers, horseback riders, mountain bikers and off-road enthusiasts love this spectacular trail. Big game hunting for black bear, mule deer, elk, grouse and antelope is also a popular activity.
The ranger station is situated at the edge of a meadow lined with aspens and mixed conifers, at an elevation of 8,700 feet. Grasses, sagebrush and summer wildflowers fill the meadow. From the front porch, guests are awarded scenic views of surrounding area. Summer days are warm and nights are cool. Boulder Mountain rises to an elevation of 11,317 feet. Capitol Reef National Park lies on its eastern edge. Boulder is comprised of over 50,000 acres of rolling pine, spruce and aspen forests on its slopes and broad, lake-studded meadows on its top.

Tranquil, don’t make the mistake of reaching over the fence to take a picture and accidentally touching the electric wire. It was literally the shock of my life lol.

We had to back out of the "pull through" site because there wasn't clearance to pull forward with our 30ft 5th wheel. The double sites are wide and spacious but all the sites seem to be short. The owner upgraded us to a double site since in a single there would have been no space for our truck. Check in is at noon but no one is in the office until 3 so you have to text to get your site number. Very quick response on the text though.
ScoutWell maintained, clean washroom Excellent WiFi!! Close to Capitol Reef NP

This is a great little park with beautiful views and lots to do in the area. There is a restaurant on site, small park for the kids, basketball court and dog walk area. The sites are very close no privacy. There are two styles ld cabins. They sell wood and propane by the tank they do not fill tanks.
GuideWe stayed in May 2023 and we were given a site all the way to the back. The view was pretty, the site was level, but when all the large RVs returned for the night, our electricity browned out and we couldn't run our AC. Our power also cut out during the night. The response from the management was, lets just say - unhelpful. Otherwise, it's a good location, the grounds are nicely maintained, the bathroom/showers were old, but they worked and had hot water. Unfortunately for us, we needed electricity for a CPAP, and our RV was 95 degrees inside, so for us, this campground gets two thumbs down.
LegendWonderland was a great place to stay to visit Capitol Reef National Park. Only a few miles to the entrance. Park was clean and the town of Torrey was small but great. Our site was #5. Good amount of space but you are still close to your neighbors. FHUs, restrooms, showers, and laundry available. Apple trees are scattered throughout the campground. We ate dinner at a great food truck Capitol Burger in Torrey.

Setting is simple, nice and clean. Staff was extremely helpful. Located on Highway 24. This is a dark sky community, so it was hard to see the signage, but worth the trouble. Nice enough Mexican restaurant next-door.

A great camp near capitol reef. Everyone was nice and helpful. There is a smoke house restaurant in camp. Wifi is available
TravelerAffordable, clean and friendly campground.
TravelerVery clean campground. Showers were clean and hot! Didn’t get a chance to use the pool, but it looked nice. The lady in the office was very nice and helpful.
ScoutPerfect size park with full hookups for RVs as well as cabins for rent. Very clean, and has bathrooms with showers. Easy access to Capital Reef National Park. Would definitively come again.
RangerJust like the title says, the bathrooms and showers were very nice and even though the sites were close, there were privacy fences put up. Only problem was the place said it was open and when we tried to go in the office it was closed. Just stayed there for one night and it was around $30, a little pricey but we didn’t have any where else to crash. It was a solid place. Probably better for glamping purposes.
LegendHook up, good amenities, close to the national park. We had a nice grassy site between cabins. Overall a good RV park.
GuideAs promised, clean and great little spot near Capitol reef national Park. Absolutely recommend if you need hook ups about the only downfall I’ve noticed is the shower pressures a little late but that’s first world. This is a great place.
TravelerWhat a nice Park to spend some time in the fascinating area of Capitol Reef NP and Great Escalante NP! Beautiful spots with a perfect view, clean and comfortable restrooms/showers and cute cabins to rent, if you didn’t plan on sleeping in your Van/RV. We were lucky to get Spot 12, a pull through hook-up slot. Thanks for having us, we are happy to come back to the super friendly hosts and this cozy park!

Ashley here from The Dyrt! It was great to add this property to our platform. "Enjoy, most of all, our spectacular sunrises and sunsets as well as quiet, starry night skies undistorted by city lights." Check them out and leave some reviews!
RangerThe campsite was large and the views were spectacular. The camp store was great and the folks were nice.
We really enjoyed the restaurant! The owner and staff were extremely friendly and the food was great.
TravelerFrom the moment you enter, you can tell they take good care of the park. It is not fancy or big but is clean and well maintained. Even with the close proximity to the highway, it is quiet and peaceful. The bathrooms are very clean, and the water gets hot quickly. We had a great stay there and will definitely be back. Highly recommend, especially for people who enjoy a quiet experience.
ScoutClose to a bike/ ohv trail. Restaurant next door. Great view
TravelerThis is our favorite place to stay when visiting the Capitol Reef area! We have been here a few times now and keep coming back! The views of the canyons are breathtaking and very close to downtown Torrey. The sites are well maintained and groomed daily, as well as clean. The staff are very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Some of the sites along the back near the fence are a bit tight, however the pull throughs are spacious. We have also stayed in the cabins before and are cute and roomy with nice private back “yards” and front porches with chairs. The pool area is a bit small for the size of the campground and could use some upkeep, however still enjoyable. The gift shop is a must see and the best one near Capitol Reef! There are many clothes, trinkets, Native American decor, and camping supplies to choose from. There is now a grille however it is expensive. Sites are gravel with some full hookup and other partial hookup. It was a bit noisy due to the campground being full and the sites are somewhat close together and close to the cabins. The campground could use some more room as they have tried to fit a lot of sites and amenities into a “smaller” campground. The views are truly breathtaking and easy access to hiking trails, OHV trails. This is a must visit campground if you are looking to take in the beauty of the colorful Utah canyons!
TravelerThe campground is beautiful and the sites are spacious. The views are incredible! It is very nice and quiet, however, the sites are very open, so not much privacy. The kitties at the campground are a nice friendly welcoming committee!
ScoutOur 5th wheel was hooked up and ready to leave and we had some battery problems, so I told both my kids to go use the campground bathrooms before we left. My 7 year old son was wearing a dress that day. They are a boy and uses a boys bathroom, though they like to wear dresses sometimes. An employee named Jason stopped them and says they are using the wrong bathroom, and that the girls restroom is next door. My son tell them they are not a girl, but the employee still kicks them out of the bathroom and blocks the door so he cannot go in. My wife approaches asked the employee what was going. The guy replies, She is wearing a dress, and looks like a girl. She cant use the boys bathroom. My wife tells him my child is not a girl, they just like to wear dresses. He replies to her pointing at our child, You know what that is? That is a mental problem, that's what that is! Your son has a mental disorder! All of this right in front of my 7 and 9 year old children. My son stormed off crying and my wife told him he was extremely rude and followed our son away. The man, Jason, shouted that she was the one being rude and went about his business as if nothing happened.
As we were leaving the RV park, that same man(Jason) was using a weed whacker in the driveway. He turned towards my truck and shot up a handfull of rocks at our truck. Our truck now has several dings and scratches on the driver side. I rolled down the window and yelled at him, Hey, you just shot out a bunch of rocks at my truck! He told me my truck was already scratched up and he didnt do anything. I took out my phone to take a picture of the guy(Jason) so we could file a complaint later. He got extremely upset and started charging at our truck with his weed whacker in hand yelling What, you want my picture now! Ill make it easier, my name is Jason! He was looking to start a fight(in front of both of my children), so I quickly drove away.
I came back shortly after to complain to the owner of the park. He tried to brush it off as if his employee was just having a bad day, and that he was really a good guy. I told him, No, a good guy doesnt treat a 7 year old child that way. He claims the weed whacker damage was an accident,(though he made no attempt to fix the damage), clearly the employee had it out for us and thought he was being clever. We are lucky our windows were closed and he didnt send one of us to the hospital. It is hard to describe the anger we felt towards this RV park and their employee, Jason. I fear that my complaint to the owners of the park fell upon deaf ears and the man who verbally assaulted our brave 7 year old child will still be working there tomorrow as if nothing happened. The best we can do is share our story in hopes that other families can avoid people and businesses like this. If you have LGBTQ family members or support LGBTQ people and their families, please do not stay at this park.
TravelerI have been full-timing in a 42’ Class A for about 6 months. This CG has the largest sites I’ve come across yet. In most, you can barely get your awning out without hitting the neighbors rig. Here, I’m guesstimating 30’ to the next rig, on either side. I am in lot 11 and next to me is a picnic table (not too close) and beside it, my space includes room to park my toad. And I could easily get two cars in that space. And THEN, the next site.
Clean, nice laundry facility, and a restaurant right at the front of the park!
Three bars of Verizon.
GuideHad to book online, but received a call from an employee with more info of the site. Pretty solid.
TravelerI’ve been here a few times actually. It’s very small which I love. Very clean and well kept. I always feel at ease in this valley. There is so much clean green grass. It’s right next to a pasture with horses, cattle, and ducks. A little more money than most but I gladly pay it cause it’s great. The bathrooms are very clean and there is a laundry mat. Very easy place to let kids play without worry. They could add more sites but it would take away from the grassy area where I lay and relax. Pretty sure the owner rides through here and there. Very nice man.
TravelerSmall, well equipped with tidy, well adorned sites. Lots of shade. Pasture adjoining sites with bison, cows, and horses just feet from us. A pool/hot tub would be 5 star.
LegendThis RV park is located in the quaint town of Torrey. Be sure to visit the Chuck Wagon General Store. It's a gem.
Wonderland is a clean and well organized park run by a gentleman that stays on top of everything, even watering the little patches of grass daily. I have to give a shout out to the management team for their clean facilities. These were the cleanest I've ever seen! The showers were very secure as well. Each was housed in it's own individual unit which required a key code to enter. The laundry was clean and up to date. A quarter more expensive than most I've used lately. If you forget something, there's a little store in the office, but there are 2 gas stations within walking distance if the store doesn't have what you need.
A green pasture runs adjacent to the campground and this made for beautiful pastoral views of the roaming buffalo, cows and horses. There are also cabins, and for the more adventurous, you can stay in an authentic covered wagon!
Full hookups, sites not too close together and they are level. There are some car camp and tent sites with wind/privacy screens and a "sheep" camp too.
The location can't be beat for visiting Capitol Reef. I'll be back for the annual Cowboy Music and Poetry Festival. Great place!
