  Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area-NFS Antelope Flat Campground

  Clean and well kept campground with clean flush toilets.

  We stayed three nights at the Antelope Flat Campground on the east shore of Flaming Gorge. The campground itself is a bit dated, but we were OK with it. Seems to be best for tent camping, there are RV spots available but without hook ups. There is a dump station. Tent sites are well kept and well maintained. We met the camp hosts for 2019, they were a very nice older couple. Seems like the wife maintains the bathrooms with flush toilets. Super clean! And her husband maintains the sites. All sites and fire rings were clean and free of weeds and debris. He worked everyday we were there on a new site. Kudos to them! Campground had super easy access to the boat ramp where we launched our kayak. Great spot to launch. Also it can get very windy!!!!!

  Red Fleet State Park Campground

  I love this place!!!

  I have been camping here for about 30 years and I'm only 30 years old. My family and our camp friends have been going here, year after year, for the great camp sites, fun hiking and most of all, the sublime waterskiing. To keep it fairly brief, the camp sites are mainly situated around a large, open, slightly uneven grass area which is great for tent camping and day activities (volleyball, frisbee, catch, BBQing.) Not much shade from the smaller trees but there are shaded picnic tables for each site. Around that are the RV sites with full hookups. The surrounding tent sites are in a more desert like, sandy area where I haven't spent much camp time. The bathrooms are usually clean and in good working order with running water, but nothing fancy (no showers.) The lake has a plethora of awesome acitivites including boating, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, cliff jumping, fishing and does provide some rentals. We usually try to go during the week as it does get quite busy/crowded on weekends.

  Moon Lake

  Tradition

  Been going here every year for 20 years. We love to fish and cook them over the fire at night. We use the jakes fishing hooks. The silver and gold ones worked the best. Their bathrooms are clean. You can rent a little fishing boat for the day. They upgraded their shop and added a little ice cream bar. The new staff is very friendly. They even have little cabins you can rent that include extra things such as a fridge. Camp sites near the lake don’t have as many trees and campsites further from the lake but there is some shade still. They have single tent, double tent camp sites. It’s a great place to camp, we went in July this year and there were not any mosquitos.

  Red Fleet State Park Campground

  Camping at Red Fleet State Park during Paddlefest 2016

  I love camping at Red Fleet State Park for so many reasons. Surrounded by beautiful red rock and pinion pines, the beauty of the desert will take your breath away. There are fossilized dinosaur tracks in the rocks across the lake, and beautiful hiking trails for you to enjoy. One of my favorite things to do every year is to camp there during Paddlefest. They close down the lake to all motorized vehicles, so that people can enjoy paddle boarding, kayaking, and all other forms of non motorized floating. Live music, vendors, and so much more! The camp spots are limited during this time, so you must reserve quickly. All camp spots have a fire ring and covered picnic table. Some of the tent camp sites have trails down to the lake. There are also two teepees you can rent!

  Vernal / Dinosaurland KOA

  Seriously

  Don't give this place your money. You can't even tent camp here for less than 55.00 per night. Just go another 8-9 miles down the highway to Steinaker where tent camping is 20.00 and RV sites with full hookups are around 35.00.

  Red Canyon

  Red Canyon RV Park Tent Sites

  We stayed at the Red Canyon RV Park which had 2 tent sites. The tent sites were huge compared to other tent sites we have been to. There was a water faucet right by our site along with picnic tables and a firepit. We had an extra car and tent join us at no extra cost. View was great. The site is right by the highway though - we slept great with ear plugs in, but could be a little loud otherwise. The bathrooms were great too, and just a 15 min drive from Bryce Canyon.

  Green River Campground — Dinosaur National Monument

  Fun little camp spots on the Green River

  It's a nice little Kim spot about 9 miles from the dinosaur national monument visitor center Utah side. There's a lot of chipmunks and if you have allergies cottonwood trees. Also the ground not to level so for tent camping it's takes a little bit to find a spot to lay your tent. just a few minutes up the road there split mountain which is for group Canton so there's more white out spaces for Tent's but you also sacrifice to tree cover on hot days.

  Moon Lake

  Camp along a long lake

  This area is more green than I usually expect from Utah. Great kayaking and some moderate/long hikes on site. We hired horses to explore the area, highly recommended. It’s close to lots of other state and national lands too, so it’d make a good base camp. Some tent sites are isolated, many are fairly wooded. Everything is basic and clean, as we expect from national facilities like this.

  Absolutely Gorgeous!

  I absolutely love Red Fleet. We stay here any time we are visiting Vernal. Hands down my favorite place. Clean, quiet, boat launch, fish cleaning station, and just beautiful primitive walk up sites. They also have RV parking with full hookups. Tent camping is 15.00 per night.

  Gorgeous site, lovely host

  The scenery was lovely. Able to pull into the tent site with our Ford E150 no problems, basically no one else in the tent portion of the site (mostly in the RV section). Every site has a fire pit and a picnic table and chairs. Bathrooms were clean, water was hot.

  Rabbit Gulch Campground — Fred Hayes State Park at Starvation

  Desert-like but awe inspiring

  This campground, specifically, the tent only part is awe inspiring. You have the ability to camp super close to the lake and the pictures you can take are amazing. The bathrooms are quite spartan at the tent camping only site, but showers and flush toilets are available at the other side of the campground. Watch out for rocks going in, we got a flat.

  Outlaw Trail RV Park

  Clean, convenient, affordable

  Friendly staff, clean areas, and no-frills complete hookups on gravel lots. Tent camping area is nice and green, but the highway noise seems like it could be a distraction. Convenient spot to start a day at Dinosaur Nat’l Mon, especially if you don’t want to risk the 1st come - 1st served with the two parks at the monument.

  Red Canyon

  Amazing views and saw sheep

  This is an amazing campgrounds. Nice big spots. I camped in June and there was only 2 people using the campground. There is water hookups with outhouse style bathrooms and picnic tables. Amazing views of Flaming Gorge resivore.

  We saw big horn sheep right by camp. The look out is within walking distance and it is close to the trailhead to the loop trail. Tent camping and RV this is a nice set up.

  Greendale - Ashley National Forest

  Very Green

  This is a small campground just before you reach the pineforest campground. It is rather small but very peaceful. The sites come have firepits and picnic tables. There is green grass throughout the entire campground with well maintained roads. There is toilet facilities available in this campground. Alot of trees and foliage adds to the privacy of the sites. RV sites with no hookups or tent sites available.

  RV Trailer sites x Walmart

  Was surprised how packed in the RV trailer sites are, they have to back into a spot on pavement between parking lines, right next to each other, the tables and grass areas are behind each parking spot. Tent sites are better since they can walk in and space out a bit. I would never camp here with an RV/TT...it looks like at a Walmart or a casino between the white lines.

  Firefighters Campground

  Hot

  Well maintained campground with bear canyon hiking trail and bootleg amphitheater across the road. Toilets and water spigots are available. They also have a dump site for trailers. There are both RV sites and tent sites with fire pits and a picnic table. The trees in this campground aren't very big so it doesn't offer much shade so bring an awning of some sort. Right off the highway so you can hear the traffic. There is a camp host who sales firewood if you forget to bring you own

  Indian Bay Campground — Fred Hayes State Park at Starvation

  Great lake to play at.

  This is a great place for a campsite. There is a really nice pavilion and really nice bathrooms with running water and showers. Close to the boat ramp and the views are incredible.  Really nice paths to get you to the beach and the boat ramp.

  Lots of fish in the lake and craw fish. The water is refreshing to swim, water ski, paddle board or any water sport.

  Lots of tent camping spots with great views, Group sites and lots of trailer camping with hook ups and water.

  Lots of bathrooms with running water and also a few pit style outhouses. This campground can get busy in the summer months. They take reservations so that is your best option.

  Red Fleet State Park Campground

  Great for water sports

  Red Fleet is an awesome lake for water sports. The campground is nice. The RV parking and hook ups are actually in the parking lot, but there is a nice green open space with tables that are assigned to each site. The tent camping is a little more primitive along a windy trail in the cedars, also with nice picnic tables. There is a beach area with a floating dock to swim out to. They rent kayaks, paddle boards and canoes. The bathrooms are clean and well kept. There is a boat launch and dock & fish cleaning station. Numerous trails surround the park for hiking, including the Dinosaur track trail where you can actually see dinosaur tracks in the sandstone rock.

  Jug Hollow Road - Dispersed Camp

  Fabulous views! Grimy campground

  This campground sits right on the shore of Lake Flaming Gorge. The access road is dirt, with ruts and rocks. Tricky when wet. Scout before deciding to go down it. Camp ground has great cell coverage and stone fire rings but nothing else. Not much shade since, there are no trees. Sadly, bushes and thickets have been used as toilets and are downright gross! Wind off the lake can be furious. Try to find a spot further in, especially if you are tent camping. Generators tear through the silence of the night. Bring ear plugs! Hiking is great right out of the campground. Not sure if I’d come back. Although views and sun set are spectacular, everything else looks is not.

  Canyon Rim

  A fun backpack in to the Canyon Rim Campground, Flaming Gorge, UT.

  We did a small backpacking trip from the Greendale Overlook on highway 40 to the Canyon Rim campground for the night. The hike was beautiful, crossing creeks and surrounded by ponderosa pines. It's about 4.5 miles one way.
  Canyon Rim Campground is beautiful, also surrounded by ponderosa and aspen, and with a beautiful overlook of Flaming Gorge Reservoir. There are specific sites for tent camping, and plenty of RV spots. Each spot has tables and fire rings. There are vault toilets.
  Our only complaint is that all of the water to the campground was shut off! No signs warning that there was no water available. This was actually awful as we had backpacked in with our dogs (who at this point were very thirsty), and brought dehydrated food that required water to make. Luckily, Red Canyon Lodge is located about a mile away. We were able to hike over and buy water. 16 small bottles of water for like 45 dollars...not ideal.

  Vernal / Dinosaurland KOA

  Close to area atrractions

     This campground is only a few blocks from downtown Vernal, but out of town enough for a rural feel. Some highway noise, but quiets down by nightfall. This campground had a good feel to it IMO. Not super large, but almost all the sites were pull through. I requested a spot by the bathroom/shower building & we got a patio site. Very nice site with a propane grill provided. 

     There are 3 bathroom/showers in the campground. One in the office building, one by the pool & one by the tent section. Bathrooms were clean. I used the laundry room without issues. 

     They had a couple of tipis, a woody tent (don't know what that is). 15 tent sites & cabins. The RV sites were basic KOA.- in a row & kind of close. We had no issues with WIFI. Staff was courteous& they had a lot of area information. I especially liked the day trips that were numbered. We camped at Vernal/ Dinosaurland KOA Holiday in a Travel Trailer.
