Campground. Located in Clear Creek Canyon and very easily accessed from Exit 17 on I-70. A small creek runs through the campground, there are no fish. This campground is operated under permit by the nearby Fremont Indian State Park. There are trails for hiking and access to ATV trails. Common vegetation in the area includes cottonwood, pinion, juniper and Ponderosa pine trees. This campground is open to ATV use. On the northwest corner of the campground is an ATV trail that will take you around the hill to access the Pauite ATV 01 trail. This trail leaves directly from the campground to the Main Paiute ATV trail in Dry Canyon, then south to Big Johns Flat and ultimately to Circleville. Big Johns Flat and Circleville are only accessible from this area from late July to the first of October due to snow drifts in the upper elevations. Another trail goes north to the Pahvant Range and Fillmore.

The Little Cottonwood Campground is conveniently located off Utah's I-15, adjacent to the Beaver River just outside of the community of Beaver in the Fishlake National Forest. At 6,500 feet in elevation, this is a great place to enjoy the mountains where recreation opportunities include stream fishing, hiking, and hunting.
Enjoy fishing in the Beaver River; an accessible fishing path is located within the campground. The Piute ATV Trail is nearby; however there is no access directly from the campground. Be prepared to trailer ATVs to the nearby trailheads for access. Nearby Cottonwood Trail is a horse and foot trail that is accessed through the lower part of Cottonwood Campground. This rugged trail will lead southwest for about the first two miles and then takes a sharp turn to the east through Horse Flat.
Common vegetation includes cottonwood, aspen, pinion, juniper and ponderosa pine trees. A majority of campsites at Little Cottonwood are well-shaded. The Fishlake National Forest offers spectacular vistas and opportunities to view wildlife in their natural habitat. Elk, deer, black bear, moose, cougar and mountain goats are some of the large animals that call the forest home.

No room in RV site for tent so moved to grassy tent site. Most sites appear to be occupied by long term rentals. Host was very friendly and helpful in accommodating my needs.
Scout
Very clean restrooms, relatively quiet, well maintained.
Ranger
Large campgrounds in area including this one. Camped in September (Doctor Creek CG up road was closed). Quiet, clean. End of tourist season and so couple of nearby stores were selling out their ice cream--Got giant couple of scoops in a bowl. For water/boaters & fishing, mainly, typically sold out during summer. Sites go in rows inching up-slope and some have nice views of lake.

Stayed 6/1-4 in space 9. Very shady campground and campsite. Creek runs thru but not by this site. Only 1 vault toilet for the family campground, so walked over to Group site toilets which were cleaner. One trail out of camp to Rock Canyon but it was fairly steep and rocky so didn't do much of it. Did walk up and down paved road into camp and then on dirt roads off main road that had a few FCFS dry camp pull out areas along the creek. Campsites well spaced many with good views of valley or the red rock cliffs. No ATVs allowed in campground. Spaces 15 and 20 were also good, 10 is double size but same price with large drive and nice views to red cliffs. Camp host unobtrusive.
Would be great during fall colors. Saw some bear scat on trail closer to I-70
Traveler
Just needed to find a place for the night and this was perfect! No one around, huge site, beautiful views and free! Cows meander around the campsite..didn't bother us. If you go past where the directions take you, there are 3 or 4 spots that are also nice. Road is easy to travel.
Scout
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.
Scout
The camping is funky but functional. And overpriced. You pay per person not per vehicle.
Traveler
The previous review said there were trash cans, however the is only one. It is location inside the volt toilet. The previous review also stated that this camp ground was close too the green county fairgrounds, but its name is the Beaver county camp grounds. Besides the one trash can, there are no water facilities and a weak Verizon service. The litter is Unbearable, both at the camp ground as well as the Beaver county fair grounds. You would think that the locals don’t have a very high regard for them selfs. I will pickup trash around my campsite but it won’t hardly matter I bet. “Please prove me wrong”
Traveler
Danny the owner, was great. Could not have asked for more. He started us right out with a 5 dollar per day discount.stayed two days then had to leave. Will stay again.
Guide
Numerous spots along the road. Some are very well shaded while others have lots of sun.
This spot is large and shaded. Rock fire pit. There’s currently fire restrictions so we didn’t have a fire but we set up a nice little sitting area around the fire with logs we found in the forested area.
There is a mama bear and cub in the area although we didn’t see her.
Weather is cooler than in Capitol Reef so it’s a nice place to recharge and escape the heat.
Lots of firewood in close vicinity so no need to bring any in with you (check for fire restrictions before).
Would definitely come back here.
If you follow the road all the way up you can access Cathedral Valley Campground (great views from up there)
Remember to pack out your garbage.
Guide
We spent 3 nights here right along the reservoir and it was great. Although it was “busy” there was plenty of space between us an our neighbours.
We rock a rooftop tent so it was easy to level. Bugs were minimal during the day. Mosquitos ramp up at night but they didn’t seem to want anything to do with us.
Saw plenty of people fishing during the day.
There are washrooms nearby but they aren’t super close to all camping areas.
GuideThis nice little campground is located between Minersville reservoir and the Green County fairgrounds, just west of Beaver Utah, on state road 21. It is small and access is somewhat tight, but we were able to get our 32-foot C-Class in easily enough and campsite 1 accommodated us beautifully.
Pros: There is a picnic table in a concrete floored, covered patio with a trash can and BBQ grills which is setting within a few feet of a small running stream. Beautiful and quiet for just $12.00 a night.
Cons: Lots of very tiny gnats that were so small they got through our window screens, so we had to minimize our external lighting, and close the windows and shades after dark.
Scout
Arrived 3Jul24 at dusk. There is standing water marsh with a frac tank, possibly for water for the quarry above. Got out of the car to give dog a break and within one minute was scrambling back in. Drove up hill to the quarry and got out with dog....still very bad mosquitos but some breeze. Hid in the car while dog was out on a long rope for a while, covered with mosquitos. After 10 minutes I had killed most that were in the car and the ones waiting at the doors and windows were gone. I cracked the door and began pulling dog rope to get slack in and then had dog climb over me into back seat.
We drove east one Dyrt to Miller Canyon and it was AWESOME. I remember maybe 3 mosquitos there.
There are only two things I can compare this savagery to (and I am in my late 50s):
Alaska (Last Chance Rd dispersed is WORSE--However, note that when I was in AK I wasn't asking for trouble--I was indoors during mosquito hours--I am sure AK has mosquitos as bad as Last Chance if you go looking)
Canada Boundary Waters Boy Scout Canoe Base (about the same at dusk--only fools wouldn't have camp totally ready to be inside tents before mosquito hours. Mornings were fine.
Traveler
Perfect place to stop for the night. Road is fine. A few ruts. Super quiet.
Traveler

Beautiful campground Quiet and lots of shade Our site had a stream running by it
Traveler
This is in the back of the Loves Travel Center. It has 2 super nice dog parks that are fenced in.
It is loud since it’s in a gas station parking lot. Back in site only. All cement pads no sitting areas or places to be outside. Kind of weird cause people can just walk through and use the dog park around your RV.
People park in the RV spots. Not a secured location. Stopped here to sleep on our drive home. Left before dark.
No RV park showers or laundry facilities. Pay extra for the Truck stop showers (did not use)
ScoutWe pulled in after sunset to stop before going all the way north to SLC. The road was pretty doable in our truck, but it think it would be easy in a sedan too. There was a roundabout at the coordinates and another van was there, but there looked to be 3-4 more small spots for tents or vans. Not sure how many could accommodate a bigger rig. Lots of bugs, none biting. About a 7-10 min drive to the freeway. No freeway noise though. Some broken glass and trash, but nothing unexpected.
Guide
Only 15 sites. But each site is large with a fire pit. Lots of trees. Right near the river and only 10 minutes off the 15. No cell service for Verizon.
Traveler
I stayed here one night while traveling from Vail, CO to Zion National Park. No Services around (except 1 toilet), but a beautiful open landscape with sweeping views. I parked along the lake, and marvelled as the night sparkled. I believe most rigs can access this location (all flat).
I believe it was 3hrs to Zion (probably the same if you wanted to drop down into Bryce) This was definitely off the "beaten path". Very few vehicles were passing on Route 72 (runs south from I-70).
ScoutLarge, open, flat area with easy access. Trailhead for mountain biking and dirt bike trails.
TravelerThis wasn't where we planned to camp but got too tired to drive any further. We are in a Toyota Camry and just hammocking. This spot worked out nicely. There was someone in the actual place of the coordinates. But we found a spot near by.
GuideConvenient NFS campground close to the interstate that makes you feel you are way back in the national forest. Small but nice campground right on the Beaver river which was flowing fast and was enjoyable to sit by.
Hosts were just arriving for the season and worked hard to get the restroom cleaned and functioning. Thank you for your work!
No trash service or dumpster in campground but a collection station was only a mile away so easy to drop trash when leaving the next morning. Water convenient to each site. No cell service and in reach satellite struggled to get connection.
Would have rated 5 stars except neighbors generator ran all night at the top of each hour for 10 minutes which diminished the enjoyment from the sounds of the river.
Will definitely stay here again maybe even for several days.
Legend
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.
Scout
Id say this place is good enough. Needed a spot in the area within 30 mins close to highway quiet dark secluded and it fit the bill
Pros:
No one else there
Vast huge area
Nice mountain view
Nice breeze
Good temp in June
Beautiful night sky
Quiet enough in eve and early AM
Not many bugs
Super close to highway, right there
Flat!
Cons:
Some trash left behind in some areas
A highway patrol and dune buggy whizzed by next day super loud. There are giant mounds of gravel the dune buggy rides. We were there sleeping til 12pm tho so prob fine if u leave at a decent AM time
Could hear the highway slightly, not enough i needed ear plugs tho and Im sensitive to sound when sleeping
Got hot during day til 12pm
Its gravel
Not super nature-y cuz its all gravel under you and mounds of gravel, good views arnd far away tho
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.
TravelerNice quiet stop to park for the night. Close to the highway, far enough to not really hear it.
