    Koosharem Reservoir

    Nice place to camp.

    This is a very easy place to throw a tent up or park an RV close to lake and good fishing. In some beautiful country.

    There are some primitive bathrooms, and nice tables. The campsites are big. The only downside to this campsite is the road is close by and can be noisy.

    Fish Lake National Forest Campsite

    Easy to get to from the I-15

    This wasn't where we planned to camp but got too tired to drive any further. We are in a Toyota Camry and just hammocking. This spot worked out nicely. There was someone in the actual place of the coordinates. But we found a spot near by.

    Great Spot Just Don’t Camp Here Alone in a Tent

    Great spot for camping with a group. Quite a few spots accessible by car. A couple fireplaces here and there too. A fair amount of fallen pine and juniper wood there to use for building fires. Just remember to drown out your fires with water (there’s a sign).

    I do not recommend tent camping here solo though. This wasn’t my first time tent camping solo either. As I was laying in my sleeping bag inside my tent around 11pm, some creature started stalking me around midnight. I could hear it moving and breathing outside my tent. I managed to scare it off by hitting my car’s “panic button” on the keys. I then packed up immediately and left.

    Koosharem Reservoir

    Nice quiet spot.

    We stayed here four nights for a conference getting nearby town. It looks like they are doing work on the land on the southwest shore near the dam. So the only place available was the gravel parking lot near the picnic table and toilets. The vault toilets are clean. There was a steady stream of people stopping to use the toilet. But other than that it was pretty quiet.

    Fish Lake National Forest Campsite

    Perfect car camp spot

    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.

    Got to road after dark / left before dawn and easily found my way in and out of area. 

    Really quiet despite being so close to the interstate

    Piute State Park Campground

    Boondocking by a Reservoir

    Pick your camping location among the cottonwood trees or out in the open for full solar. No services other than pit toilets (which are still locked in early May). Quiet. Good birding. Mayflies in May. Lake is supposed to have good fishing. Great Verizon service.

    Easy to drive to & set up a tent. No shade but it got chilly at night & in the early morning.
