    Miner's Canyon Dispersed

    Beautiful Area, But

    Close to civilization but far enough to get a healthy dose of quiet darkness. The campsites are drive-in and a decent size, far apart from each other, but keep your eyes peeled for deep potholes and broken glass. The few times we’ve stayed here we’ve enjoyed ourselves, but this seems to be a very popular spot; on several occasions we’ve made the 1+ hour drive out here, only to find every single spot taken. It appears that the same campers are out here frequently, and for long periods of time. Would be nice if people would limit their own stays for the consideration of others to enjoy this area as well, instead of treating it like their own personal property.

    Springville / Provo KOA Holiday

    KOA

    Well it's your topical RV resort. It doesn't have a fire ring and it's by train tracks and a freeway. Also, your packed in like sardines. However, it will do for overnight. I have to say it is clean and kept up well. But if you're into private camping with space, this isn't for you.

    Fish Lake National Forest

    Great spot just off the HWY

    Pulled about 3/4 mile back from the coordinates, into the trees. Quiet and beautiful

    Springville / Provo KOA Holiday

    Clean and friendly staff.

    Spots are a little tight. Noise level is a 5. Near the hwy but not next to. It’s a good place to stay and the monthly rates are fair.

    Sheep Creek Dispersed Camping Area

    Good overnight spot

    Quiet and easy to get to from road. Got crowded as the evening went on but plenty of room for all

    Wagons West RV Campground

    Friendly couple manager

    We liked our site close to every thing. Lots of full timers and ATVs. Laundromat is open to locals so lots of traffic but clean, well kept. Food truck next door. Good for overnight on way to Zion

    Antelope Valley RV Park

    Nice with a couple caveats

    This is a large, nicely kept, clean RV park with water, electrical 30 amp and 50 amp and sewer. Showers are available at no cost and laundry is available for $2.50 per wash and $2.50 per dry. The biggest problem is using the laundry. It’s necessary to download an app which is complicated and irritating then you have to load the app with money. I’m pretty tech savvy but this frustrated me. an overnight day is approximately $55 a night and I’ve heard a rumor that there’s no cash or checks allowed. Use of a credit card requires a fee.

    Manti - La Sal KOA

    Perfect Location to jump on the Arapeen trail

    This KOA is daily straight forward. Has everything you will need. Laundry only had on machine working but I was able to get all mine done while we were here. Has a game room with a family room area and a large TV. We were able to ride our side by side from this location right onto the Arapeen trail. The main office will give you a simple map on how to get there and they also sell the trail maps for $10.50. Wanted to use the pool but it was closed for the season.
