Best Glamping near Laketown, UT

This was the first time that we stayed in a yurt, and it is a game changer.  It is honestly so nice once in a while to not have to put up camp or break camp.  For a nice, glamping getaway this is the place to be.  The grounds are beautiful, the host is kind, it is so quiet, and there was a lot of wildlife.  I recommend it for those who don't want to miss the comforts that they have at home, or just for those of us who tent camp and want to make is even more special once in a while.

The Green Canyon yurt it's owned and managed by Powder Ridge ski touring. During the winter months, Powder Ridge manages the Green Canyon Road and grooms it on an almost daily basis. It is groomed for cross-country skiing with the designated track on one side. You can also Snowshoe, or ride your bike with fat tires up if your adventurous! The trail is approximately 3.8 miles long with a steady incline most of the way. There are a few spots with decent little Hills.

The yurt itself can sleep 12, on four twin over full bunk beds. There's a cooking area, table, pots and pans, and of course a pot belly stove to keep it nice and warm. I had the opportunity to Snowshoe up with a friend after Christmas 2016, and thoroughly enjoyed it. The folks at Powder Ridge were great to work with.

I will say if you Snowshoe up, please don't do what we did and make sure to avoid the established cross country ski track. As it was our first time snowshoeing up there, we didn't know and ended up ruining it in a few places. They were able to fix it easily that night, but had we been paying attention they would not have had to.

I believe we paid $250 for the night, the pricing may have changed so I would refer you to them for more information in that regard. The cost however, would easily be distributed among 12 friends.

Having grown up in northeastern Utah, at the base of the Uinta Mountains, I’ve done a lot of camping. However, this is now one of my favorite sites. We went as an extended family, but since the group sites were already reserved, we got 5 sites on the south side of the campground. Everyone loved their site, and we can’t wait to get back.

Absolutely awesome spot. Hosts were really friendly. Stayed in my pop up camper for a night and there was tons of space for pop up and our site (A1) was the best in the campground, I think. It was secluded with tons of trees. Not all sites had a lot of tree cover. It wasn’t right off the river but it was still only a 30 second walk to the river. There were fire bans in Utah but because of the type of fire set up on concrete and built in fire places, we were able to have a fire all night which was awesome. Also my buddy is a professional singer and brought his guitar so I’m impartial. We had such a great time!!

Conestoga Ranch is a destination that gives luxury a down home feel.

 Located in Garden City, Utah on the beautiful Bear Lake Conestoga Ranch offers luxury tents and a chance to stay in a covered wagon.

I stayed in a larger, more luxurious site because my wife and I were on our Anniversary weekend.

The tent had a king bed, shower, and deep claw foot tub. The decor is charmingly rustic with log furnishings and tin and raw pipe for plumbing and accessories, this is all intentional and makes the experience even better.

Onsite, there are clean shower rooms and rest rooms, laundry facilities, an arcade, and a very fine restaurant and lounge.

Upon check in, you park by the office and a attendant takes you and your gear up to your site, later on a fire concierge will come and start your fire as you relax and take in all the beauty around you.

Bear Lake offers so much opportunity for recreation, from boating, to side x side rentals to beaches, mountain biking and some shopping.

This luxury comes at a price...a pretty steep price for camping, rates vary, but staying before memorial day gave us the better rate. 

I do think that the price is worth the wonderful experiences that we had at this fun little place.

Have a great time.

Easily accessible, spacious and beautiful.

I love this campground we stay here with family every year. Almost all of the sites are nicely shaded and you can buy firewood here for $6. We have no cell service in the campground but you can walk to the road and get service if needed. Behind the bathrooms on the South side there is a little trail with a beautiful view of the lake. If you go exploring behind the East bathrooms you’ll see a little creek. The trails are no longer maintained which is a bummer so be careful.

This place was awesome for our firs weekend in our trailer. Gorgeous country and easy access.

Great views here and not too crowded when we went I highly recommend

Sunrise Campground sites are immersed in trees to give you a surrounding cozy and comfortable feeling. Back in sites include a fire ring and sturdy picnic table... Not sure about the pull-thru sites.

For site 15, the sunrise peeked thru the trees into my tent. As I got going, I walked around the park to find a rest area only 0. 5 miles from my campsite (great if you need flushing toilets, running water and a beautiful view of Bear Lake).

Looking forward to a return visit to this campground!

Very nice hosts. Pull ins a bit tight but there are some pull throughs. I’m here in late June and perfect weather. Quite peaceful as not a lot of campers yet.

Very tight to maneuver car or suv, host was meh and rude. Stayed the weekend of July 4th 2021. It was a nice stay, bear lake was about a 10-15 mile drive.

This campground is beautiful and the sites are huge! The bathrooms were pretty clean. Cell service was decent.

Ranch had a variety of accommodations luxury tents, the Joshua tree house, or the covered wagons. The covered wagons are super unique and can sleep up to six. Good views of Bear Lake.

Prices range from $209-$399 per night.
