    Canyon View RV Park

    Just a parking lot, but in a beautiful park/awesome walk/bike trail!

    First come, first serve, dump station on site(back of parking lot), friendly camphost; great access to an awesome bike/walk trail, close to town& Walmart 

    SITE: Water and Electricity only and all amenities worked great. All sites are back in and spaced in a large parking lot. Picnic table per site in the shade under the trees by your site; level site; all concrete; the sites are close together, but it wasn't full so the RVers thoughtfully spaced out from each other; full sun

    CELL SERVICE: AT&T worked great- not all bars but it worked well for use working remote and no issues with video calls using our hotspot. 

    OTHER: Located on the edge of Canyon View Park. The park had just closed as they prep for their annual Christmas light show, but you could still walk on the trail through the park to access the main bike/walk trail which was awesome and goes on for many miles! We loved using this everyday we were there. Bathroom in the park was really clean. Dump station is in the parking lot(super convenient) on the back side. It was super gusty, windy at night and consistent every night from about 11pm- 10am. Maybe it's just seasonal? Make sure your awning is in!

    Washington Lake Campground

    A very popular, family friendly, beautiful campground.

    We stayed for 7 nights (the limit) in August of 2023. It's all paved, asphalt road and concrete pad for picnic table. Very beautiful setting with the large lake and mountains surrounding. Fishing-yes! Hand powered boating, hiking trails and lots of other lakes to explore. 

    There no water available but you can fill your RV, Trailer or whatever at the entrance to the Lost Creek CG which is about 3 miles east on Hwy 150. No Dump station, nearest being in Kamas.

    Seems to be a popular place for local (SLC) families to gather. Family friendly so lots of kids. Quiet time 10PM to 6AM.

    Dry Hollow Campground — Echo State Park

    Right by the lake

    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. The camp host was very sweet. Most of the sites are pull through and accommodates big rigs very well. The park managers keep it clean.

    Chokecherry Campground — Deer Creek State Park

    Decent state park

    Camped here last minute while driving through. Well-run, easy check in, reasonably priced.

    There are both primitive tent and RV sites with hookups. Small to large sites, back-in and a few pull through. Lots of trees and lilac bushes offer some privacy.

    Fire rings, plus BBQ grills, picnic tables at each site. Centrally located bathrooms were clean. Water, trash and dump station by entrance.

    The campground is on an incline so there are decent views of the reservoir from just about anywhere and the mountain backdrop to the east. Small but clean beach. There was also ziplining and kayak rentals at the state park but both were closed due to COVID.

    Would camp here again.

    Lodgepole Campground

    Lodgepole Campground - Group Site B

    Nice basic campground just coming out of Heber City, UT on your way to Strawberry Reservoir. This is a fairly large campground with numerous sites. The group site parking was shallow. We could barely fit our 19 ft travel trailer and our truck. Outside of the group site it appears there are deeper sites that could accommodate a long fifth wheel. Parking space is wide enough to park another car next to trailer. There are a few tent sites as around the group site pavilion.

    No hookups for RV’s. Dump station on site for $10 fee. RV spots are back in only. There is running water and flushable toilets on site; however, the water line was under repair and not turned on during our stay. It sounds like the repairs have been going on for a long time.

    There is cellular service, but it’s a little slow. I have sprint carrier and had service.

    Negatives: The campground is close a highway incline/decline which is frequented by Semi’s which bring lots of noise to the campground throughout the day and into the night.

    Stinging Nettle: lots of stinging nettle located around group site B, so stay on the paths as much as possible.

    Tanners Flat

    Good location for exploring Wasatch Mountains and Salt Lake City

    You really need to know this: No dogs are allowed because this campground is in the Salt Lake City watershed.

    And this: As inviting as the water running through the campground may look, you are not allowed to swim, wade or wash in it.

    One more thing: Gate closes at 10 pm although that didn't stop some partiers at the next site in from us. They partied and left around 11 or so. There was no payment tag on the post. The exit is open but has tire shredders if you enter over them.

    A pleasant surprise at a Forest Service campground: 10 lbs of ice for $2! (There was also the usual bundle of firewood for $6.)

    An unpleasant surprise: Old, dirty bathrooms. I've seen cleaner vault toilets elsewhere than these flush toilets.

    There is no water for now (July 2018) in bathroom sinks or at spigots. The host said something about a pipe issue and water needing to be tested. That covers the amenities other than dumpsters.

    What about the sites? We arrived on a Sunday morning when the host was putting up signs indictating which sites were reserved. We had 3 possible sites among 1 through 19 and grabbed #9, a pull through site with a buffer between the road in the parking/small RV area.

    Sites in the other area (higher numbers) were becoming available, but that area's host said many of the sites were only appropriate for tents.

    Our site #9: There are a few steps down to the picnic table, fire ring and grill plus a separate area to the left for a tent. See photos.

    General site info:

    • Some sites have a concrete pad for the picnic table, etc.

    • Many sites have an area for the tent that is away from the picnic table and concealed from the road.


Guide to Orem

RV camping near Orem, Utah provides access to the Wasatch Front mountain range with elevations ranging from 4,500 to 8,000 feet across nearby camping areas. Summer temperatures typically range from 75-95°F during day with cool evenings in the 50s, while winter sites remain open with temperatures often below freezing. Most campgrounds maintain year-round operations with seasonal adjustments to amenities and access.

What to do

River access fishing spots: At Knotty Pine RV Resort, visitors can fish the nearby creek. "The river is hard to get to but pleasant to listen to. The Velvet Ash was blooming so it looked like snow in July," notes Marie E.

Paved bike trails: Several rv sites near Orem, Utah connect to regional biking networks. "There is a nice little walking trail along the river directly behind the RV park," Christine writes about Lakeside RV Campground, adding "it is walking distance to a state park and recreational lake."

Golf course camping: Gladstan Golf Course RV Park in Payson offers full hookups adjacent to golfing. Kevin H. mentions, "FHU. Good data on Verizon. No other facilities. Lovely soft grass on most sites." The golf course view includes mountain scenery beyond the fairways.

Swimming and recreation: Onsite pools and recreational areas serve multiple campgrounds. "We were allowed fires. People were there with dogs in leashes. Full hook up, electricity and water," describes Marie E. at Knotty Pine RV Resort, which maintains both pool and hot tub facilities.

What campers like

Adult-only sections: Mountain Valley RV Resort features designated areas for mature visitors. "There's a section that is for adults 21 and older where children are not allowed," notes Sheila B., adding "This campground is close to stores, restaurants and a hospital."

Private bathroom facilities: Clean, private facilities rank high in camper reviews. "The restrooms and showers were private and clean. The water pressure was high and temp was hot," writes Chris G. about Mountain Valley, which maintains multiple bathroom facilities across the property.

Concrete parking pads: Level, stable parking surfaces for RVs earn positive mentions. "The concrete was level and spacious," notes one Mountain Valley visitor, while Kelly N. warns about Gladstan Golf Course RV Park: "the spots are not level, and the water pressure is high. Make sure you have a water regulator."

Dog-friendly amenities: Several campgrounds near Orem feature designated dog areas. "Big beautiful dog run area with a waterfall," writes Donna H. about Mountain Shadows RV Park, which offers this feature despite mixed reviews about other aspects of the facility.

What you should know

Highway noise considerations: Some campgrounds experience traffic noise due to proximity to major roads. "There's a plant nearby so it kind of smells. And there's a decent amount of road noise since it's in town," notes Nicole B. about Pony Express RV Resort.

Variable WiFi performance: Internet connectivity differs significantly between properties. At Rollin' Home RV Park, Erin H. reports, "WIFI spotty. Bounced in/out a bit," while adding, "Visible & ATT both strong signals. OTA channels good. Plenty of them & good reception."

Fire restriction variations: Fire policies differ between locations. "Fires are not allowed in the individual sites, but the campground has three public gas fire pits. Or if you have your own gas fire pit, they will allow you to use it, but no wood burning is allowed," explains Sheila B. about Mountain Valley RV Resort.

Water pressure warnings: Several campgrounds report high water pressure that requires regulation. "Water pressure high, use regulator," warns Erin H. about Rollin' Home RV Park, with similar warnings at other locations suggesting travelers bring pressure regulators.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly swimming options: Echo Island RV Resort maintains multiple swimming facilities. "Several pools although only 2 currently open but heated! Lovely stream on property where you can fish and low mountains on several sides," writes patty L.

Recreational equipment borrowing: Some parks loan out sports and recreation gear. "Bikes available including kid sized. Paved 80 mile bike trail along Jordan River. Giant chessboard," janet H. mentions about Pony Express RV Resort.

Playground accessibility: Various parks maintain play areas for children. "The playground is clean, a good sized one, but overrun with unsupervised kids," cautions Amy about Pony Express, suggesting visiting during less crowded times.

Entertainment amenities: Game rooms and indoor activities supplement outdoor recreation. "They have dvds and sports equipment you can check out. Such a fun place!" reports Carlee G. about Echo Island RV Resort.

Tips from RVers

Overflow parking options: During peak periods, some campgrounds offer alternative accommodations. Todd C. reports about Rollin' Home RV Park: "Spots were full but they let us park in the parking lot for the night and gave us full access to showers and laundry."

Tight turns for large rigs: Some campground layouts present challenges for bigger vehicles. "The pullthroughs by the office, the road to get to them has a tight right turn & is narrow," warns Erin H. about Rollin' Home RV Park, suggesting larger rigs consider alternative sections.

Site selection strategy: Choosing specific sites impacts the camping experience. Kevin H. advises at Gladstan: "Not overly long sites and might feel more like a tight commercial/parking lot-like campground when full - but we loved being one of a couple when we were there."

GPS navigation challenges: Approach directions can be problematic at certain campgrounds. "Watch your GPS!" warns Erin H. about Rollin' Home RV Park, describing navigation systems missing turns and providing incorrect routing information.
