SUMMARY PRESENTED BY
Developed sites and dispersed land both sit within reach of Meadow, a small town along US-15 in Millard County with BLM and Fishlake National Forest access in the hills to the east and west. Dispersed camping around Meadow covers the no-fee, no-reservation end for those who want to camp without developed infrastructure. Tent and RV sites at established campgrounds in the area run vault toilets and fire rings. Some properties have water, others don't. Confirm before arrival.
Forest road access at higher elevations closes from November through May. Lower-elevation BLM sites along the valley edges stay accessible most of the year. Richfield is the nearest full-service town for resupply. The campground corridor here is quieter than the national park gateway areas to the south.

Beautiful and private
Fantastic views, just a short drive on good dirt roads off I-70. Four or so sites along the road. The last one on the right surrounded by trees with some protection. Little road noise overnight - the more exposed sites have more. No other campers on a Tuesday night - one truck drove by in the late afternoon. Very peaceful.

Not fancy but very adequate
20260715: I don't know why the reviews are so low. I spent a week here doing the Paiute ATV trail in 2019. The people I had contact with were friendly. Great rates and gas and convenience store. Full hook-ups and pull throughs. The sites were level. I think there is laundry and maybe restrooms also. There are a few permanents but no problem. Some shade depending on the site. Quiet, peaceful and no problem with cell coverage. WIFI was a little sketchy but as long as you have a window facing the store, it was acceptable. Easy to get into and out of from i-70. I'm thinking of another trip there for the Paiute trail. Everything you could want is a short 15 mile interstate drive to Richfield.

Not bad for one night
This is ok for a quick overnight stop. It’s a separate
RV area mostly away from the gas station noise and traffic. You still get some noise, especially trucks at night. Full hookups. You book and pay on the Love’s app. The Love’s has showers and laundry. Showers are discounted for RV Srop patrons. They have electric vehicle chargers

Fillmore Utah KOA Review: A Quiet, Clean, and Scenic I-15 Stopover
If you're traveling up or down Interstate 15 through central Utah and need an excellent place to unhitch for the night, the Fillmore Utah KOA (officially the Fillmore KOA Journey) is a fantastic choice. Our crew recently rolled through, and it checked all the boxes for a perfect road trip stopover—with a few fun surprises along the way!
Location and Accessibility
Convenience is king when you're logging long miles, and this campground truly delivers.
Easy Access: Located right off I-15, it's incredibly easy to navigate your rig into the park without dealing with stressful detours.
Provisions: It sits right next to a Maverik gas station, making morning fuel-ups effortless. There are also grocery stores nearby, so restocking the RV pantry is quick and painless. Trail Access: For the off-roaders out there, this park is a hidden gem. It boasts direct, easy access to an extensive network of SxS and ATV trails (including access to the famous 1,000+ mile Paiute Trail system). Recent fires have complicated things however many miles of beautiful trails are still to be found.
Campground Vibe and Site Quality
The"Local" Wildlife: The absolute highlight of our stay was a visit from the unofficial campground host—a wild turkey! It definitely gave us a good laugh and added some unique character to the stop.
Cleanliness and Staff: The RV sites were impeccably clean and well-maintained. We also can't say enough good things about the staff, who were wonderfully friendly and helpful from the moment we pulled in.
Atmosphere: Despite being so close and convenient to the interstate, the park is very quiet at night. Waking up to nice, serene views of the surrounding mountains was the perfect way to start our next day of travel.
The Hitched4fun Verdict
Whether you are just passing through central Utah on I-15 or looking for a comfortable home base to hit the nearby ATV trails, the Fillmore KOA is a top-tier choice. Great staff, spotless sites, stunning mountain views, and the occasional wild turkey make this a memorable and reliable stop. We will absolutely stay here again.
Rating: Highly Recommended by the entire Hitched4fun.com crew!

Like boondocking with perks
Close to nature, the lake, the stars, and the main freeway. Optional add-on elec. hookup nice for charging EV car or Rv hookup. Picnic table, fire ring, and small deck for tent, plus access to potable water on site. Nice panoramic views of Utah mountains and sunrise and sunset. Back roads great for a walk or e-bike ride. Great stargazing at night. Cell service good, no shade.

Meadow Hot Springs
Beautiful spot to stop for the night
We got here late on a Monday night, sites were easy to find even in the dark. there was maybe 3-4 other groups there but it was still very quiet. The last section of road is roughhhh but as long as you’re not in a low profile car you should be fine. Theres also camp sites before the chunk of nasty road. Lots of cows that roam, we were woken up by one of them trying to eat our car lol! But with that there’s cow poop everywhere but I personally didn’t mind it. Highly recommend!!

Guide to Meadow
Meadow, Utah sits at an elevation of 4,600 feet, creating distinct camping seasons with summer highs around 90°F and winter lows often below freezing. The area experiences significant temperature swings between day and night, particularly at higher elevation campsites near Meadow, Utah. Most dispersed camping options in the region have limited or no facilities, requiring visitors to pack in water and pack out waste.
What to do
Soak in natural hot springs: At Meadow Hot Springs, visitors can enjoy three natural pools of varying temperatures. "Super relaxing hot spring with a few other springs at decent temperatures. Road is bumpy and may be difficult for cars to get back to the main spring but you can always park and walk," notes Mason M.
Explore petroglyphs: Castle Rock Campground provides access to hundreds of ancient rock art panels. "Fremont Indian State Park has a visitor center and 697 Native American rock art panels," reports Judy T. The campground connects to various hiking trails for exploring these cultural sites.
Try ATV riding: The Paiute Trail system offers extensive off-road opportunities. "Great campground in Richfield with a lot of great OHV trails and mountain bike trails nearby," mentions Joseph H. about the recreation options accessible from several area campgrounds.
What campers like
Well-maintained facilities: Fillmore KOA earns praise for its upkeep. "The campground and facilities are very clean and well maintained. The camp hosts and staff are very friendly," writes Jill L. The campground provides full hookups and amenities for those wanting more comfort.
Creek access: Adelaide Campground offers waterside sites for anglers. "A lot of the sites have direct access to the creek and are in the shade all day," notes Elena S. The location provides both peaceful settings and fishing opportunities.
Unique accommodations: Visitors can stay in converted buses or cabins at Mystic Hot Springs. "Stayed in an old bus turned into cute little camp spot. Stayed here in the dead of winter and was very comfy and cozy. Bus had heated blankets and was thoughtfully set up," reports Leigh-Anne H.
What you should know
Road conditions vary: Many campsites require driving on unpaved roads. "The spring is large enough to accommodate 20 people. The main spring is right around 100° comfortable enough that you are never too hot or too cold. It's only about 5 miles of the main highway," explains Rhonda D. about accessing Meadow Hot Springs.
Seasonal limitations: Most Forest Service campgrounds operate from May through October. "Castle Rock campground in Fishlake National forest is one of two campgrounds that serve Utah's Fremont Indian State Park, with both administration and reservations handled through the Utah State Park system," explains Barry S.
Facilities at truck stops: For travelers needing a quick overnight stay with hookups, truck stops provide basic services. "This is in the back of the Loves Travel Center. It has 2 super nice dog parks that are fenced in. It is loud since it's in a gas station parking lot. Back in site only. All cement pads no sitting areas or places to be outside," reports Angie R.
Tips for camping with families
Choose shaded sites: Summer temperatures can get hot at lower elevations. "Our site had a stream running by it," mentions Dianna L. about Castle Rock Campground, highlighting the cooled microclimate created by water features and shade trees.
Consider KOA amenities: Campgrounds with pools and activities keep children entertained. "I never knew there was so much to do in Fillmore. We visited the hot springs and lava tunnels. Kids had a blast. The KOA pool and spa were great," shares Preston G.
Look for open play areas: Some campgrounds offer space for recreation. "It is small but large open areas for kids and/or dogs to run and play. It's quiet and clean," notes Samantha E. about Adelaide Campground's layout.
Tips from RVers
Check site dimensions: Many older campgrounds have limited turning radius. "Really quiet, convenient and quite pretty place to stop overnight. We stayed in site 33 which was great because we didn't have to unhook our tow vehicle and you have no one looking in your front windshield," advises Victoria C.
Consider overnight stops: The area works well for travelers passing through. "Easy easy place to hook up, quiet and affordable!" states Alexis F. about Wagons West RV Campground, making it suitable for travelers along I-15.
Plan for elevation changes: Higher elevation campgrounds can get cold even in summer. "Most sites are reservable, the rest are available daily as FCFS. Two have teepees for those lacking a tent. Several are double sites for larger groups, and there are a variety of pull through vs in/out options," explains Barry S. about Castle Rock's facilities.
