8 new full hookup RV pads. Far enough away from the lights of surrounding towns of Spring City, Mt. Pleasant and Ephraim, the Milky Way and stars will amaze. Come and visit for a night or a week.
We look forward to seeing you soon.

Great Campsites, Swimming & Hot Tub was Awesome. Friendly Staff
Traveler
Awesome first camp of the year. Booked as soon as the state parks opened back up. Place really gave that “middle of nowhere feel”, lake and surrounding area were beautiful. Campsites were simple and bathrooms were nice. Only issue we had was we accidentally booked a site without electric. Could’ve been more clear on website, but also likely a rookie mistake being our first camp in Utah
GuideWe planned to tent camp here, but our friends rented the cabin next to our site and couldn’t make it last minute. So we got the cabin! Great spot. Lake is cool and an easy walk down from the sites. Shade is at a premium, so we were very happy to get the cabin because it was crazy hot. Clean bathrooms with nice showers for rinsing off after splashing in the lake all day.
GuideVery quiet, far enough off the road to not have road noise. Pool and jacuzzi, little bit of shade. The grass is nice and well maintained. The town has a grocery and a pizza place, nothing special.
ScoutGreat place if you just want to get away. Had the whole lake to myself. Strong 30 mph winds.
Scout
Great rec area including a playground. Bathrooms well Maintained and pedal boat and other boat rentals. Plenty of fish to catch off the shore or in a boat
Ranger
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.
LegendThis is a great spot on your way through or just for a weekend getaway. Each spot has a cover over the picnic table and most spots have a view of the lake. The spaces are pretty far apart and you have a decent amount of privacy.
There is a lot to do including camping swimming 🏊♀️ on the beaches, and water is warm. The campground ⛺️ is about 25 miles south of Nephi. Recreational opportunities include camping, 🛶 , swimming, fishing, and ATV/dirt bike 🏍 paths.
There is developed and primitive camping is available at Oasis and Painted Rocks campgrounds and at the beach areas. There is a lot to fish for including northern pike, walleye, yellow perch, wiper, and catfish year-round.
RangerWell taken care of and close to the freeway. Nice pool and close to services. Part of the utah utv trail system
Guide
Utah state recreation area, OHV recreation area along with beach side camping. Year round access. Campground is RV only (I think) beach tent camping along the whole lake, vault toilets around the lake, Occasionally there are trees but mostly not, can get dusty if people are driving thier off road toys. Only 1 vehicle per reservation extra car can be paid for. Nice beautiful, relaxing.
GuideThe North and Western beaches are a semi dispersed campground. There are no actual sites, but there are outhouses every couple hundred yards. The outhouses are lighted by little solar powered led lamps. The north side is amongst some pretty cool little sand dunes. We had the place to ourselves in late October. 
GuideArrived on Thursday evening to a completely open beach. A few others pulled in later but parked 100 yards away. Friday evening filled in more but still well spaced. Plenty of space at this location. Was able to paddle board on lake. TMobile 2 bars. Wind picked up Saturday with gusts up to 40MPH. Headed home.
TravelerIf you are camping on north or west beach be aware it is first come first serve weekends and holidays are busy but great water access and atv/utv trails. They allow fires most of the year and have movable firepits when it is allowed they pull them off the beach when not allowed. You can also move around tables too. This is a windy beach so prepare.
GuideNorth and West beach are first come first served past the pay station. You can camp right up on the water or there are some areas with light shade. If you want a reserved spot with hookups you'll need to go on the East side to the Oasis campground.
We go here 3-5 times a year. It's a favorite with the dogs.
RangerIf you aren’t looking for anything special then this place works. We used it as a quick overnight on our way to Salt Lake. The beach is big, but typically rally crowded on the weekends. The pit toilets were really bad when we went. Super full and really filthy(even for a pit toilet).
It is primitive, so nothing else is accessible other than the pit toilets. Bring all of your own supplies!
We had our dog with us and I had to keep picking stickers out of his paws, they were alll over the place! They even filled the bottom of my sandals and I ended up throwing hem away. It was a pain and I probably wouldn’t stay here again if I could avoid it
RangerCool beach looking area but really crowded
TravelerWe had one night here on a road trip to southern CA. It was beautiful. Clean, quiet, well maintained. We were there on a weeknight in April so I can imagine it gets pretty busy in weekends and in warmer weather. It was 25 degrees overnight so we were grateful to have the electric hook up! Road was well maintained getting there and not too far off the interstate that it made for a good stop over! We will be back.
TravelerSpent a night here. Nice facilities, with covered picnic tables at each RV spot, water, and most with electric. Nearby dump station. Some grass and green areas for dogs. Adequate shower facilities. Pretty scenery, and several miles away from the interstate so very quiet. There was an algae bloom that made lake hazardous, so we kept dogs away from the water.
ScoutStayed here when rockhounding. Work remotely so needed cell service and this place has good verizon LTE. Nice large sites, BBQ and campfire pit. Shaded picnic area. Super windy at night, not sure if it’s the time of year or the norm. Late october - winterized for the season so no potable water or flush toilets but there’s still vault toilets.
TravelerThe campsite is pretty with clear views of the water and mountains. Bathrooms and showers.
ScoutSpent 3 days here. There were a few people here but it was so quiet. Took a nice walk down by the reservoir. Took a ride to Scipio out the "back" way (over the dam). I would stay here again.
LegendGreat place to camp. Close to I-15 lots of fish in the lake. We stayed here with our boat and had lots of fun.
Close to boat ramp. With big campsites, tables, bathrooms, and fire pits.
Travelerlove having the showers and toilets close by great views and camping
ScoutThis campground is really nice. A lot of trees, tent pads and showers. Bathrooms are really clean.
GuideThe campground is spacious, has showers, running water bathrooms, fire pits, cement pads and pavilions. Great place to camp- much better than being on the beach- due to the wind! Yuba beach is always windy and the oasis campground gives some reprieve
RangerIt was pretty empty in the fall with nice leaf peeping. There are many trails, though they allow mountain bikes and ATVs, so watch out. Most people were fishing (jetskiing in summer). It’s a modern basic campgrounds with great showers. Many of the sites were along the water. Another couple said they visit frequently and it can get crazy windy, so you might want to make sure you have a decent tent (not a $30 one from the megamart). It sounds like it’s more touristy in the summer (the couple raved about fried oreos...?), but in the fall it was quite peaceful. I’d return on shoulder season but probably find somewhere else in summer, just my personal preference.
GuideWe stayed at the group site! The pavilion was wonderful. The grassy area around it was perfect for kids and grandparents. There is a bit of a hike to get to the water, and the group site is not set up for trailers, but we made due. Great place to fit 30 or so campers.
