Best Equestrian Camping near Lehi, UT
Willow Park Campground in Lehi provides tent and RV camping along the Jordan River Parkway with spacious sites for horse trailers. Each camping spot includes a fire pit, barbecue grill, and picnic table on a concrete pad. The campground offers running water, clean flush toilets, but no shower facilities or hookups for RVs. Sites are arranged with minimal shade and adequate space between neighbors, though privacy is limited. Goat head thorns are prevalent throughout the grounds, requiring protective measures for tent floors and sturdy footwear. The $25 nightly fee grants access to the maintained grounds, volleyball court, playground, and non-motorized boat launch to the adjacent river.
The Jordan River Parkway trail system connects directly to the campground, offering miles of riding opportunities along the waterway. Trailer parking accommodates various sizes, with the open layout providing straightforward access for loading and unloading horses. Water access is available at pump stations throughout the grounds, though not directly at campsites. The campground's location provides convenient access to Utah Lake, Traverse Mountain, and sits centrally between Salt Lake City and Provo. While the camping area features few trees for natural shade, the level terrain makes for easy horse handling. Camp hosts maintain the grounds consistently, with particular attention to keeping the restroom facilities clean and functional for guests throughout the camping season.
