Best RV Parks & Resorts near Mapleton, UT

Several RV parks surround Mapleton, Utah, providing convenient access for motorhome travelers exploring Utah Valley. Lakeside RV Campground in Provo operates year-round with full hookup sites, offering electric, water, and sewer connections alongside amenities like a pool and dog park. Mountain Valley RV Resort in Heber City features spacious concrete pads with 50-amp service and is consistently rated highly for its well-maintained facilities. Canyon View RV Park in Spanish Fork provides more basic accommodations with water and electric hookups on level concrete sites. Jones High Country RV Park in Nephi offers affordable full hookup sites on gravel pads. "We were welcomed immediately upon the drive in, explained the amenities and given a welcome packet. Our pull through site was perfect size right next to clubhouse, laundry, clean showers and bathrooms," noted one visitor to Mountain Valley RV Resort.

Most RV campgrounds in the region are big rig friendly with pull-through sites available, though availability varies seasonally. Cell service is generally strong throughout the area, with both AT&T and Verizon providing reliable coverage at most parks. Dump stations are available at most locations, with Canyon View RV Park featuring a convenient on-site station at the back of the parking lot. Pet policies are consistently accommodating, with dedicated dog areas at several parks including Mountain Shadows RV Park in Draper, which features "a big beautiful dog run area with a waterfall." Proximity to highways makes these parks easily accessible, though some travelers note that sites can be tightly spaced, particularly at Lakeside RV Campground where one reviewer mentioned their "30' rig hardly fit in the spot and made it difficult to park our truck." Advance reservations are recommended, especially during summer months and fall foliage season.

    Canyon View RV Park

    Just a parking lot, but in a beautiful park/awesome walk/bike trail!

    First come, first serve, dump station on site(back of parking lot), friendly camphost; great access to an awesome bike/walk trail, close to town& Walmart 

    SITE: Water and Electricity only and all amenities worked great. All sites are back in and spaced in a large parking lot. Picnic table per site in the shade under the trees by your site; level site; all concrete; the sites are close together, but it wasn't full so the RVers thoughtfully spaced out from each other; full sun

    CELL SERVICE: AT&T worked great- not all bars but it worked well for use working remote and no issues with video calls using our hotspot. 

    OTHER: Located on the edge of Canyon View Park. The park had just closed as they prep for their annual Christmas light show, but you could still walk on the trail through the park to access the main bike/walk trail which was awesome and goes on for many miles! We loved using this everyday we were there. Bathroom in the park was really clean. Dump station is in the parking lot(super convenient) on the back side. It was super gusty, windy at night and consistent every night from about 11pm- 10am. Maybe it's just seasonal? Make sure your awning is in!

    Washington Lake Campground

    A very popular, family friendly, beautiful campground.

    We stayed for 7 nights (the limit) in August of 2023. It's all paved, asphalt road and concrete pad for picnic table. Very beautiful setting with the large lake and mountains surrounding. Fishing-yes! Hand powered boating, hiking trails and lots of other lakes to explore. 

    There no water available but you can fill your RV, Trailer or whatever at the entrance to the Lost Creek CG which is about 3 miles east on Hwy 150. No Dump station, nearest being in Kamas.

    Seems to be a popular place for local (SLC) families to gather. Family friendly so lots of kids. Quiet time 10PM to 6AM.

    Chokecherry Campground — Deer Creek State Park

    Decent state park

    Camped here last minute while driving through. Well-run, easy check in, reasonably priced.

    There are both primitive tent and RV sites with hookups. Small to large sites, back-in and a few pull through. Lots of trees and lilac bushes offer some privacy.

    Fire rings, plus BBQ grills, picnic tables at each site. Centrally located bathrooms were clean. Water, trash and dump station by entrance.

    The campground is on an incline so there are decent views of the reservoir from just about anywhere and the mountain backdrop to the east. Small but clean beach. There was also ziplining and kayak rentals at the state park but both were closed due to COVID.

    Would camp here again.

    Lodgepole Campground

    Lodgepole Campground - Group Site B

    Nice basic campground just coming out of Heber City, UT on your way to Strawberry Reservoir. This is a fairly large campground with numerous sites. The group site parking was shallow. We could barely fit our 19 ft travel trailer and our truck. Outside of the group site it appears there are deeper sites that could accommodate a long fifth wheel. Parking space is wide enough to park another car next to trailer. There are a few tent sites as around the group site pavilion.

    No hookups for RV’s. Dump station on site for $10 fee. RV spots are back in only. There is running water and flushable toilets on site; however, the water line was under repair and not turned on during our stay. It sounds like the repairs have been going on for a long time.

    There is cellular service, but it’s a little slow. I have sprint carrier and had service.

    Negatives: The campground is close a highway incline/decline which is frequented by Semi’s which bring lots of noise to the campground throughout the day and into the night.

    Stinging Nettle: lots of stinging nettle located around group site B, so stay on the paths as much as possible.

    Tanners Flat

    Good location for exploring Wasatch Mountains and Salt Lake City

    You really need to know this: No dogs are allowed because this campground is in the Salt Lake City watershed.

    And this: As inviting as the water running through the campground may look, you are not allowed to swim, wade or wash in it.

    One more thing: Gate closes at 10 pm although that didn't stop some partiers at the next site in from us. They partied and left around 11 or so. There was no payment tag on the post. The exit is open but has tire shredders if you enter over them.

    A pleasant surprise at a Forest Service campground: 10 lbs of ice for $2! (There was also the usual bundle of firewood for $6.)

    An unpleasant surprise: Old, dirty bathrooms. I've seen cleaner vault toilets elsewhere than these flush toilets.

    There is no water for now (July 2018) in bathroom sinks or at spigots. The host said something about a pipe issue and water needing to be tested. That covers the amenities other than dumpsters.

    What about the sites? We arrived on a Sunday morning when the host was putting up signs indictating which sites were reserved. We had 3 possible sites among 1 through 19 and grabbed #9, a pull through site with a buffer between the road in the parking/small RV area.

    Sites in the other area (higher numbers) were becoming available, but that area's host said many of the sites were only appropriate for tents.

    Our site #9: There are a few steps down to the picnic table, fire ring and grill plus a separate area to the left for a tent. See photos.

    General site info:

    • Some sites have a concrete pad for the picnic table, etc.

    • Many sites have an area for the tent that is away from the picnic table and concealed from the road.

    Tie Fork Rest Area

    Good Off-Highway Rest Area

    Large almost level paved parking area. Good modern rest rooms. Good picnic tables with displays behind rest rooms. Dedicated dog area. Bring ear plugs due to big rig generators and infrequent train horn. Several RVs and big rigs parked here during my overnight stay.

    Lakeside RV Campground

    Great access to Provo & Utah Lake

    Lakeside was our home for 3 nights while we were in town for Provo’s annual Colonial Festival. I really loved the proximity of this campground to Provo City—12mins to downtown, and the incredible tree coverage here. This campground is beautifully shaded and quite enjoyable for spending time outside on the grounds—even in July.

    Across Center St. and behind a field is Provo Airport which is home to (I think,) smaller aircraft as they are audible from the campgrounds, though not excessive. To the west of the campground, separated by a fence is the Lakeside Storage Facility that houses a TON of petrol signs, gadgets & a few vehicles— a free, outdoor museum of gas station memorabilia from a different time. The north side of the campground is surrounded by a quite large river that you can access by a hiking over a large dirt berm. Although this area beside the river is not maintained by the campground, there are stairs in one spot and a couple of foot trails that can take you to the top of the berm. Here you’ll be able to walk along a narrow trail along the river, nearly across the entire north side of the grounds.

    This campground is VERY tight knit, as most of the spots don’t have much of a yard and if you have slides you need to be careful not to hit anything. I feel we got the worst site on the grounds— J1. Our 30’ rig hardly fit in the spot and made it difficult to park our truck every day as well as making it difficult for vehicles to pull their rigs behind our spot, squeezing behind our trailer bumper and the fenced dog run. Our yard was also the smallest there, about 2’ at the widest point, narrowing to points at each end. This pull-through spot was the worst part of our experience, but I would definitely like to return.

    The front office staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. I’m fairly certain that we could have swapped our spot if we had asked to do so. We used the dog run & playground nearly everyday and stopped by the pool and store a couple of times. This campground seems very well cared-for and was so enjoyable to us that we would return—however next time, we would attempt to reserve a specific spot rather than take the chance at once again landing on J1. All of the sites on the north side of the grounds (purple back-in,) looked wonderful; shaded & quiet, and a few of the sites in the east/ middle side of the grounds like B12 looked wonderful. Most of the end sites in the middle of the campground had a much more enjoyable yard-area. Had we not booked so near Independence Day, we may have been able to request one of these more “premium” sites.

    I think we’d like to camp here again when we have friends or family camping with us, we can request a larger site and spend some wonderful summer evenings under the huge shade trees.


Guide to Mapleton

RV camping options near Mapleton, Utah surround this community situated at the base of the Wasatch Mountains at 4,731 feet elevation. The area experiences four distinct seasons, with summer temperatures averaging 85-95°F during the day and dropping to 50-60°F at night. Winter camping remains possible at several year-round facilities with freezing temperatures common from November through March.

What to do

Hiking access: Canyon View RV Park in Spanish Fork provides convenient access to nearby walking trails. "Located on the edge of Canyon View Park. The park had just closed as they prep for their annual Christmas light show, but you could still walk on the trail through the park to access the main bike/walk trail which was awesome and goes on for many miles!" notes one visitor.

Fishing opportunities: Park City RV Resort offers on-site fishing options. "There is a nice creek down there and still close bathrooms with shower," mentions a recent guest. The creek runs through the lower tier of the campground, providing easy access for casual anglers.

Golf proximity: Gladstan Golf Course & RV park combines camping with direct golf course access. "FHU. Good data on Verizon. No other facilities. Lively soft grass on most sites," reports one camper. The RV park is situated directly on the golf course property with mountain views.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Mountain Valley RV Resort in Heber City maintains exceptionally clean bathrooms and common areas. "The bathrooms were the most well maintained bathrooms we've ever used on the road. To top it all off, they have a gorgeous fitness center with weights, a treadmill and elliptical available to all guests," states one reviewer.

Privacy options: Some campgrounds offer secluded areas for those seeking more space. "Located in beautiful Heber City, Utah. We felt at home as soon as we arrived and were greeted by a nice man on a golf cart who lead us to where we'd be staying. There is an adult only section if you're looking for peace and quiet away from kids," explains a Mountain Valley RV Resort visitor.

Mountain views: Rollin Home RV Park offers scenic vistas from most sites. "Beautiful views if you pick your spot wisely. (So office isn't out your back window instead of the mountains)," advises one guest. The park features wide pull-through sites with grass dividers between camping areas.

What you should know

Water pressure concerns: Water systems vary between RV parks. "Make sure you have a water regulator," warns one camper at Gladstan Golf Course & RV park. At Rollin Home RV Park, a visitor notes "Water pressure high, use regulator."

Site leveling challenges: Pleasant Creek Ranch requires preparation for uneven terrain. "Some of the sites aren't level and are pretty close to each other. I had to use 3 yellow square leveling blocks on the left side," reports a visitor. Other parks similarly require leveling equipment.

Shower limitations: At some facilities, amenities have constraints. At Jones High Country RV Park, a guest noted "If someone is doing laundry, we have to wait until they are done with laundry. So you could run out of hot water in the middle of the shower if someone does laundry."

Tips for camping with families

Pool access: Lakeside RV Campground offers swimming options for children. "This place is very cute for established camping. It has lots of trees and a nice little walking trail. They are pet friendly. They have men's and women's restrooms with showers. They also have a pool for the warmer months," states one visitor.

Playground facilities: Lakeside RV Campground includes play areas for children. "There is also a playground and pavilion for gatherings. I suspect this is a very popular campground in the summer," notes a camper who visited during the off-season.

Pet restrictions: Be aware that pet policies vary. "If you are tent camping they do not allow you to have pets," cautions a Lakeside RV Campground visitor. Other campgrounds have specific pet areas or leash requirements.

Tips from RVers

Site selection strategy: Park City RV Resort has a tiered layout affecting experience. "I recommend the lower spots, G and H or tent campsites as they are farther from the road. There's a nice creek down there and still close bathrooms with shower," advises one RVer. Another notes "There are 4 tiers of spots (the grounds are literally tiered), the top of which are reserved for newer, specific class vehicles."

Seasonal considerations: Knotty Pine RV Resort operates seasonally from April 1 to October 31, with 98 sites available. "The river is hard to get to but pleasant to listen to. The Velvet Ash was blooming so it looked like snow in July," describes a summer visitor. The resort provides access to off-road trails away from more crowded areas.

Navigation challenges: GPS systems may struggle with directions to some RV parks. At Rollin Home RV Park, a visitor warns: "Watch your GPS! Our Garmin RV890 had us coming in from the South end of Four Mile rd.... only it completely missed the turn ONTO Four Mile. The road has no street sign, no rv park sign etc & said we were still 2m to the turn."
