    Moon Lake Campground

    Beautiful Lake, Clean/Modern Campground

    Moon Lake Campground is a clean and modern campground on the shores of a beautiful high mountain lake. The spots can be a little close together, but they are well developed. The bathrooms are modern for a national forest campground with running water, electricity, flushing toilets and ventilation fans. The camp host did an excellent job of daily cleaning and stocking of the campground. Just feet outside the campground is a private resort with rustic cabins and a lodge. The lodge store provides basic necessities in the event you forgot something, as well as an ice cream bar with sundaes and soda on tap. The lodge provides rentals of kayaks and small fishing boats. It even has a taco truck out front. All around, our family ranks Moon Lake near the top of our favorite camping spots.

    Dixie Creek Campground — East Canyon State Park

    A good example of how government campsites should be done

    Overall, the facility is neat and clean for a campground. My visit was at the end of the 4th weekend, so some messes were expected. My campsite was in good shape upon setting up my 30ft trailer. All sites are back-in and mostly flat asphalt. A little rig leveling might be needed. The outside of the loop at Dixie C.G. is electric and water only. The inside of the loop has full hook-ups. 

     All sites have long, sturdy metal tables and a metal cover over a concrete pad. A fire pit was adjacent. Even with fire restrictions almost everywhere else in Utah, wood fires were permitted in the provided pit. Common area toilets are well maintained, containing flush toilets and running water. Most service buildings also contain free showers.

    A one-star deduction is due to the effects of climate change, which is out of the Park's control to an extent. That said, my beef is with maintenance of the beach - a nice beach by the way. It's obvious where the historical water level use to be. Wish I could have seen the reservoir full because it may never happen again. But I digress. I think the park should rake or scrape the beach surface to remove offensive weeds and people's discards. That takes workers, budget and equipment. My guess is our State representatives lack interest to fund state parks for such mediation measures. It would greatly enhance the visual appeal and safety for families at the water's edge.

    Hailstone - Upper Fisher Campground — Jordanelle State Park

    Immaculately maintained campground

    We stayed for only one night, but I would come back here in a heartbeat! Big, clean bathrooms with running water, mirrors, flushing toilets, & hot showers. Gorgeous view of the lake - you can walk right down to the water from your site. Super friendly staff. Tent pads are all level and maintained after each camper. Has all the other essentials- clean picnic table, big clean fire pit, and a charcoal grill.

    Dixie Creek Campground — East Canyon State Park

    Decent water destination!

    We went during the summer and had a great time. The views were perfect and the lake is active with choice of water fun rentals. The site is standard with a small lawn area and a pavilion. Bathrooms are onsite as well as showers. Pet friendly but need to be on a leash at all times. Great for RV’s as power and water is present on each site.

    Strawberry Hideout

    THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

    My family and I love camping and have been building our camping arsenal and experience. This campsite gave us a good time and also helped us realized what we needed to add to our “Need to Buy List: Camping Edition.”

    First, the Pros of the visit.

    1. Designated campsite with deck, fireplace and table! Deck was well built, practically brand new and the same with the fire pit. The fire pit is a smokeless one so the smoke would travel through a ventilation built into it.
    2. Has service! We had full bars throughout the campsite. We were even able to watch the Rookie in our tent before bed!
    3. Gas station is just 5 min down the road! Nice little gas station that’s prepared to help you with almost all your needs, including flushable toilets!
    4. Strawberry reservoir is about 15 min from the campsite and there’s plenty to do there! I won’t go in to detail but we spent majority of our day there.

    Now the Cons.

    1. The campsite is in the middle of a sketchy RV graveyard! Abandoned buildings and RVs were scattered all over the vista. It was sorta creepy but if you like that kind of thing, go for it!
    2. No shade in sight! No trees or anything to provide shade from 7:30-6ish (the sun goes behind the tent around 6). So bring a canopy or two because we forgot to bring one and were scorched! Also the tent heats up like a sauna with the sun beating on it, even with all the windows down and doors open. So if you’re planning on coming back for a relaxing afternoon nap, good luck with that!
    3. The wind will take your tent if you’re not careful! The wind gusts would be so powerful at times it would almost carry out tent away from us. We had ours on the deck and it was an ample target for the biggest tent-napper out there: the wind. Without a way to put stakes because you’re on the deck, we were exposed. Thankfully they had cinder blocks under the deck we could use but man it was surely a pain in the butt! So come prepared!
    4. Bring bug spray and sun screen! We got burnt so badly and there were ants and ant hills everywhere! I counted at least 5 different ant species crawling around the camp table.
    5. Private property signs everywhere. We wanted to explore around our campsite but due to so many private property and no trespassing signs, we never got to explore around us because we thought we would get shot.

    Overall, it was not a bad campsite! I think our experience wasn’t the best but that’s mainly due our unpreparedness and lack of experience. There’s many things to do in Fruitland area and also places where you can enjoy the peace and quiet! I hope our learning experience can benefit anyone interested in go to this campsite! Happy camping!

    Mountain Valley RV Resort

    Mountain Valley RV Resort, Utah

    One of our all time favorite RV parks. 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. The concrete was level and spacious, each with its own picnic table.

    They have two dog parks, one of which is the nicest and largest one we’ve seen thus far. The laundry room was sparkling clean and located adjacent to the pickle ball courts and outdoor fire pits. They have an on-site RV wash available and allowed us to borrow an adaptor from them at no charge. We enjoyed an evening in their hot tub/spa. They also have a large pool area near the bathrooms that 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.

    Overall we were extremely impressed with all amenities and the customer service provided at Mountain Valley RV Resort and would recommend it highly to anyone visiting the area.


Guide to Oakley

Cabins near Oakley, Utah sit at the edge of the Uinta Mountains, with elevations ranging from 6,500 to 7,500 feet, creating a temperate summer climate typically 10-15 degrees cooler than Salt Lake City. Most cabin rental options remain open from late April through mid-October, with several locations imposing fire restrictions during peak summer months due to drought conditions.

What to do

Fishing access: 10 minutes from sites. At Echo Island RV Resort, the property features fishing ponds specifically designed for younger anglers. "This is such a pretty and accommodating place to stay. They had a small pond for kids to fish in, two swimming pools and two hot tubs, very clean and modern facilities," notes Carlee G.

Nearby trail systems: Multiple access points. Cabin accommodations at River's Edge at Heber Valley provide direct access to riverside trails. "The river is right across the street as well as a nice little walking path. Park City and Heber are just a short drive away," writes Amy H., highlighting the convenient location for hiking enthusiasts.

Off-roading opportunities: Equipment rentals available. Families staying at cabin accommodations can explore the surrounding mountain terrain. "We were also able to rent a Razor UTV on site and took a mapped out 4 hr drive through our beautiful mountains, straight out of the campground," explains Cindy H. about her experience at Mountain Valley RV Resort.

What campers like

River access: Direct from property. Multiple cabin locations offer waterfront positioning. "This site was very big & the creek surrounded on two sides. It even had 2 picnic tables. When we were here, this part of the campground was empty across from us & site beside us was empty which we loved! We got to listen to the birds," reports Tisha B. about her cabin stay at Echo Island RV Resort.

Outdoor recreation facilities: Multiple activity options. Cabin guests appreciate having dedicated recreation areas on-site. "This RV park has two pools (one limited to adults only), two dog parks (one large enough for big dogs to run and fetch), two sets of pickle ball courts and is spacious," writes Karla B. about Mountain Valley RV Resort, highlighting amenities beyond standard cabin features.

Proximity to state parks: Short drives required. Cabins serve as convenient base camps for exploring nearby recreation areas. "Not van friendly. Called in the morning to make a same day reservation. They have closed the restrooms as a COVID precaution and are requiring everyone to have a self contained bathroom/shower," notes Muriel W. about River's Edge at Heber Valley, indicating the importance of verifying current facility restrictions.

What you should know

Water pressure variations: Bring regulators. Cabin guests should be prepared for infrastructure inconsistencies. "Be careful hooking up your RV to water. Very high pressure," warns Trevor S. about Jordanelle State Park facilities.

Reservation windows: Book 4-6 months ahead. Summer cabin rentals fill quickly, especially at popular locations. "The spots are very close together. Staff was very friendly and helpful," reports Jacci R. about her experience at River's Edge at Heber Valley, reflecting the trade-off between convenience and privacy at some locations.

Elevation considerations: Night temperatures drop significantly. Even summer evenings can reach the 40s at many cabin locations. "We stayed in one of the cabins over the winter. Beautiful and cozy cabin with an absolutely stunning view of Mount Timpanagos," writes Matt T. about Mountain Valley RV Resort, highlighting the importance of packing for temperature fluctuations.

Tips for camping with families

Entertainment options: Bring alternative activities. While many cabin sites offer recreation, weather can be unpredictable. "We loved our time at this beautiful park so much we added an extra day to our trip. The customer service was excellent- there was a friendly family vibe. Everything was very clean," shares Amy H. about her stay at River's Edge.

Wildlife watching: Dawn and dusk best times. Many cabin locations report regular deer and small mammal sightings. "Pine Creek is next to a golf course just on the outskirts of Midway, Utah near Deer Valley Ski Area. Lots to do in Midway and surrounding parts. No fishing close to the campground but lots of fishing and boating nearby. It's very pretty with wildlife enjoying life," explains James J. about Pine Creek Campground.

Space considerations: Research cabin dimensions. Family-sized cabin layouts vary significantly between locations. "Not all spots have trees but there are a lot of trees. The spots are small gravel and rather level. We are happy with the size of our spot. Each spot has a fire pit and picnic table," reports CJ L. about River's Edge accommodations.

Tips from RVers

Site selection strategy: Request specific locations. Experienced campers recommend being selective about cabin placement. "We are at a spot that is on a cement loop (#1) which was unlevel and it is not next to the lake but closer to the road (which is not too busy) but a view of the lake. You get a nice covered pavilion with a steel picnic table and fire ring with grate for grilling," describes Jerilyn M. about Echo Campground.

Connectivity considerations: Variable reception. Cell service is inconsistent across the region. "This campground is clean, well laid out and very well kept. The grounds are pretty with grass and trees between each parking pad. There are three pools, three shower houses, and three laundry rooms," notes Sheila B., detailing the amenities that offset potential connectivity challenges.

Off-season advantages: Significant price reductions. Early May and late September offer better availability and rates for cabin rentals. "Very convenient to great recreation areas. The staff is fantastic and super helpful," reports John G. about River's Edge at Heber Valley, where shoulder season can mean 30-40% discounts on standard rates.
