"This isn't the prettiest lake. It is nice and big, but since it is one of the closest to Utah Valley and Salt Lake Valley, it gets a lot of traffic."
"We stayed at the "McHenry" campground in a spot right next to a creek. The traffic noise was a bit prevalent during the day because it's close to the highway. Great tent pad."
$28 - $401 / night
"Tucked in very back. Long ways to walk from car. Water spout next to car area. Will be sharing parking with 2 other sites. 2 lakes nearby. Fire pit with grill gate. Shaded area."

"Bathrooms always close by, no showers. All sites have a picnic table and fire pit. If you’re lucky, you can get a site close to the creek. Nice, cool nights in the summer."

"We got a site with access to the river which my kids really enjoyed. There was a fun giant "sliding rock" in the area to climb on. Lots of trees for hammocks."
"The site we stayed at had many trees around to hang hammocks and also eat and picnic in the shade. There are brand new camp fires in all sites."

"While there are many campgrounds in Utah that rival it, this one is special because it's such a short drive after work."
ScoutStill a bit cool in May, but as the leads come in there are spots with decent coverage and 10 minutes from strawberry reservoir
TravelerPaved campsites in a birch & scrub forest. Friendly hosts. Fire pit/grill combo and large wooden picnic table in good shape. Overall a nice campground.
GuideAs beautiful as the view was, I felt it was ruined with all of the trash that people have left behind in the dispersed camping area as well as along the lakeshore. Tents, pillows, sleeping bags, glass, etc. There also seems to be majority long term campers who have a lot of stuff everywhere around their campsites, as well as 2-3 permanent residents living on the private property that backs up against the public lands. While there are 10-12 spots that are easily accessible, they’re being utilized by the long-term campers. Our first night here we arrived around 8 pm, right before sunset so we didn’t have a lot of time to explore so we just parked in the larger area near the public access area to the lake by 3 other campers. Luckily the next morning a camper van left so we were able to move without being on top of so many people since the people we were around all had dogs barking almost every time we let ours out to go to the bathroom. Overall, I felt like this campsite left more to be desired and took away from the beauty of the area.
TravelerMyself and 7 other friends just drove up this last weekend and camped for 2 days.
We dealt with rain and even snow on the last morning… But there was green grass and a spot for fires and the Sheriffs rolls through and are super helpful as well.
We found a spot that was more of a hill, which made it neat to get around, but the site was LITTERED with spent ammo, broken glass and broken pieces of clay pigeons. Another group camping near us told us they found the same at their site so be weary of where you step up here.
Great for dispersed camping, but watch out for bears and mountain lions as well and make sure you follow the food rules and lock your cars. We didn't see or hear anything, but the Sheriff that stopped by warned us.
Cell service is also spotty here. I have Xfinity Mobile and I had decent coverage here and there.... everyone else had T-Mobile and they were also spotty, but more so compared to mine, so AT&T (who I think XM uses) is slightly better.
ScoutThe surrounding area is full of closed roads making this spot inaccessible.
ScoutThere are some unfriendly signs prior to your arrival but once you get here it’s a wonderful campground. A bit crowded when we arrived around 7:30pm but we managed to find a site without issue. There’s the standard campground pay pole mentioning a $20 fee but it seems to be welded shut so I assume this is free given it’s BLM land. Otherwise, two rivers running through, fire pits and picnic tables at each camp site. Saw multiple pull behinds and possibly an RV, lots of tent campers, and myself in the truck bed (as I prefer a real bed). Will definitely be back if I pass through again!
ScoutShowed up to book a RV site after checking the rates on the website ti be told they don’t have one. Rates are $40 after taxes a day and doesn’t change until monthly but even then not by much.
TravelerLoved this site, cost $40 to tent camp. Bathrooms were very clean and site was great!
