Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Oasis, UT

Fishlake National Forest Oak Creek Recreation Site provides multiple pet-friendly camping options across 20 sites nestled along a canyon creek with maple, oak, and cottonwood trees. Pets must be leashed in developed areas while staying at the site. Fillmore KOA welcomes dogs with tent sites, RV hookups, and pet-friendly cabin options available from March through November. The campground has spacious and not overcrowded areas with numerous hiking spots suitable for dog walking. Whiskey Creek Road dispersed camping areas offer free primitive camping where pets can explore more freely, though all areas require owners to maintain control of their animals and properly dispose of pet waste.

Oak Creek Recreation Area features flush toilets, drinking water, and shaded campsites making it comfortable for both pets and their owners during summer months. Located 4 miles east of Oak City, the area provides access to wildlife viewing opportunities where deer are frequently spotted. Visitors should keep pets secured as the surrounding canyons contain abundant wildlife. Water from the in-ground spigots has been noted to taste strongly chlorinated, so campers should bring fresh water for their pets. Dispersed camping options along Whiskey Creek Road and West Fork 8 Mile Road offer more secluded experiences with pets, though these areas lack facilities and require self-sufficient camping with pack-in, pack-out practices. The well-maintained dirt roads provide access approximately 20 minutes from Highway 15, allowing for relatively easy arrival even with pets and camping equipment.

    Love's RV Hookup-Fillmore UT 835

    Parking Lot Hook Up Site

    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. Kind of weird cause people can just walk through and use the dog park around your RV.

    People park in the RV spots. Not a secured location. Stopped here to sleep on our drive home. Left before dark.

    No RV park showers or laundry facilities. Pay extra for the Truck stop showers (did not use)

    Oasis Campground — Yuba State Park

    Great Weekend Getaway

    Awesome first camp of the year. Booked as soon as the state parks opened back up. Place really gave that “middle of nowhere feel”, lake and surrounding area were beautiful. Campsites were simple and bathrooms were nice. Only issue we had was we accidentally booked a site without electric. Could’ve been more clear on website, but also likely a rookie mistake being our first camp in Utah

    Wagons West RV Campground

    Dated but inexpensive

    No concrete pads, just gravel with grass and picnic tables between. The landscaping looks a little overgrown. The fencing around the small dog park isn’t secure.

    Office and laundry facilities are closed on Sundays. Bathrooms are small but clean with one toilet stall and two shower stalls each.

    Full hookups and pull through spaces. Wi-Fi is available but we didn’t test it.

    It’s a very quiet place. Fillmore has a Best Western with a golf course, a few gas stations and a Carls Jr.

    Adelaide Campground

    A perfect campground!

    This campground is perfectly tucked away in the hills near Kanosh UT. About 15 mins down a back road from the freeway (I-15). It is small but large open areas for kids and/or dogs to run and play. It’s quiet and clean. There are two bathrooms within a short walk from every site. The creek runs near the sites and it’s the perfect sound to lull you to sleep. You can reserve a site ahead of time on the website or walk in and pay at the site as long as there is no reservations. Very simple. There is NO cell service so if you are coming from a long distance be sure to make sure there are availability’s before you drive into the site. If you’re ever taking that route through Utah and need a place to crash I would recommend this to anyone!

    Oasis Campground — Yuba State Park

    Nice facilities, well-maintained

    Spent a night here. Nice facilities, with covered picnic tables at each RV spot, water, and most with electric. Nearby dump station. Some grass and green areas for dogs. Adequate shower facilities. Pretty scenery, and several miles away from the interstate so very quiet. There was an algae bloom that made lake hazardous, so we kept dogs away from the water.

    Rollin' Home RV Park

    Highly Recommended

    Friendly staff and able to accomodate short notice stop. Spots were full but they let us park in the parking lot for the night and gave us full access to showers and laundry. Great showers that were clean and nicer than some hotels. Walking path for dogs was a great bonus. You wont be disappointed.

    Little Sahara Dump Station

    In OHV base camp

    This Oasis CG is part of the Little Sahara Rec Area and should not be confused with the Oasis CG in Yuba State Park. We stayed here as a quick overnight stop on our way into southern Utah. And it was Memorial Day weekend. There were thousands of people here. We showed up, paid the fee at the main entrance and were lucky enough to get one of the last two actual campsites. The sites are not numbered. This CG is made up of 4 loops with approx. 85 actual paved sites. Each loop has two restrooms. The sites vary in size. Some can accommodate big RV's, some are pull through, and some if not most are ADA compliant. They have fire pits, grills, and picnic tables. 

    There is also dispersed camping down the dirt road from the CG if its full. There is actually quite a few dispersed camping options as well as the other 3 campgrounds in the area. 

    This is an OHV paradise, dunes, hills, and a large amount of tracks for dune buggies, ATV's, four wheelers, razors, whatever you have. It was fun sitting by the fire and checking out all the rides. It is noisy but that's to be expected. Mostly died down by 10pm. Most people had RV's and trailers for their rigs. The info said there was water available in two spots but we didn't see it. There were dumpsters for trash and a dump station for the RV's. No showers that we saw. That being said, the restrooms which had flush toilets and a sinks were in extraordinarily good shape. Very clean for the amount of people using the CG. 

    If you have an OHV this would be a great place to spend a weekend or a few days.

    Dispersed Sandy Lot

    easy place to stop for night 15 minutes or so away from interstate

    We were looking for an easy place away from the interstate to split our drive from Idaho to St George in half.  There was no one here at all and found easy place with a tree to set up 26ft tt.  Let the dog roam free around meadow.  Further up are more sites but gets sandier and tighter


Guide to Oasis

Dispersed camping opportunities near Oasis, Utah include several free primitive sites along Whiskey Creek Road where campers can stay in a natural setting. The area sits at approximately 5,000 feet elevation with juniper forests and open meadows characteristic of this section of western Utah. Temperatures fluctuate dramatically between seasons, with summer highs regularly exceeding 90°F and winter nights frequently dropping below freezing.

What to do

Explore lava tubes: Near Pahvant Valley Heritage Trail Dispersed, visitors can discover fascinating geological formations. "This is a primitive spot no tables or fire pits. You can camp in the lava tube they are warm in the winter and it is a fun place to explore," notes Brad B., who recommends bringing proper footwear and lighting for exploration.

Visit local rock shops: When staying at Antelope Valley RV Park, take time to learn about the area's geological treasures. "Managers were super friendly & helpful. They are expert rockhounders, so take the time to chat them up. Be sure to visit local rock shop too, owner there is very helpful and has an amazing collection," shares Karla D.

Hike Boulder Mountain: The mountains east of Oasis offer scenic hiking opportunities accessible from several campgrounds. "I've camped at Oak Creek for years, with family and solo. It's tucked away on Boulder Mountain and if you're not looking for it, you might pass it up," explains Eric Y., highlighting the secluded nature of trails in this area.

What campers like

Privacy and quiet: Fish Lake National Forest Campsite offers secluded camping spots away from crowds. "Super easy access for any car if roads are dry. Lots of places to get back in the junioers a lil and have a nice private place to sleep... Really quiet despite being so close to the interstate," notes Kristy B.

Reliable facilities: Oasis Campground — Yuba State Park maintains well-kept amenities that campers appreciate. "Nice facilities, with covered picnic tables at each RV spot, water, and most with electric. Nearby dump station. Some grass and green areas for dogs. Adequate shower facilities," reports Edward R.

Fall colors: The tree diversity creates spectacular autumn displays. "Small campground with 10 sites circling a grassy lawn and 10 sites scattered upstream along the canyon with maple, oak, and cottonwood all turning colors in October," writes Virginia D., describing the scenic transformation of the landscape each fall.

What you should know

Water quality varies: At some locations, treated water may have a chemical taste. "The main two things I didn't like was that the water from the in-ground spigots smelled and tasted like pool water and was also not ice cold," Elena L. mentions about her experience.

Weather considerations: The area experiences significant temperature fluctuations. "We had temps dip down into the teens overnight with a dusting of snow in late September, be sure to pack layers," warns Sam D., emphasizing the importance of preparedness even during shoulder seasons.

Road conditions: Many dispersed camping areas require driving on unpaved roads. "The drive in past the pavement was dusty, but not horrific. The road had been graded so there a lot of rocks on the surface of the road. No washboard," Steve H. explains about accessing West Fork 8 Mile Road camping areas.

Tips for camping with families

Choose established campgrounds for amenities: Families typically find developed sites more comfortable. "The campground and facilities are very clean and well maintained. The camp hosts and staff are very friendly," notes Jill L. about accommodations suitable for children.

Look for shaded sites: Summer heat makes shade essential. "Located in a quiet area with plenty of shade. Nice pavilion and pretty clean grounds," Elena L. mentions, highlighting features that make camping with children more comfortable during hot months.

Watch for wildlife viewing opportunities: Kids enjoy spotting local animals. "Lots of wildlife in the area, watch for deer and cattle in the road," advises Sam D., pointing out that family excursions can double as nature education opportunities.

Tips from RVers

Stay at established sites for hookups: Fillmore KOA offers reliable services for RVers. "Spaces are level and have a nice, grassy area between sites with a picnic bench & fire pit. The surrounding area is scenic with cows in pasture and a mountain backdrop... WiFi was very weak but the hookups are in good condition," kristin S. reports.

Dispersed sites for smaller rigs: Dog friendly campgrounds near Oasis include primitive options suitable for compact RVs. "Stop on our way North in our van with our 2 kids. Drove about 20 Minutes off the 15 on hwy 50 to Whiskey creek road. Drove another 20 on whiskey creek on a well maintained dirt road. Camp was relatively flat, good trees for shade," shares Chula R.

Plan overnight stops strategically: Several campgrounds make convenient rest points. "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," Victoria C. suggests for travelers passing through with RVs.
