Vernal Dinosaurland KOA provides big-rig friendly sites with full hookups and operates seasonally from March through October.

During peak summer months, shade becomes a premium feature at many parks, with Fossil Valley RV Park offering mature trees that provide relief from the heat.

    Mountain View Campground — Fred Hayes State Park at Starvation

    Mountain View Camping

    We stayed at the Mountain View campground. I was glad I had a back-in site around the edge of the loop. I loved the view. The pull through sites in the middle were super close together that left little room for slide outs and entry/exit from the trailers unless you were in the end. Each site has a pavilion and fire ring. They don’t allow tents on the grass, but a handful had a tent pad so make sure you check the site listing to determine if it will allow a tent. We had water hookups and access to 20/30/50 electricity. No sewer available in the site, but they do have a dump station. The campsite had a shower building and vault toilet locations around the loop. There were even 3-4 cabins that you could rent (they looked similar to those at a KOA I have seen before). We enjoyed our stay and the temperature was great. Could use more trees. The back in drive way was 60 ft in length.

    Vernal / Dinosaurland KOA

    Well taken care of-- New look

    Vernal Dinosoar Koa seems like it has a TON of spots crammed into a small are but all of them have green grass, picnic tables, and grills. Some sites have covered awnings some have large shade trees. What I liked about this campground were all the activity options they gave you, unlike some other KOA's I've stayed at. There was a small but functional K-9 park, a kids park, a swimming pool, a jump pad, and they had bike/3 wheeler rentals, and a mini golf coarse. They had a covered patio off of the pool building with picnic tables for use and just on the other side of the jump pad and kids playground they had a HUGE grassy field that you could go throw frisbees on or even fly a kite. They had spots for small RV, Very Large RVs, One special site that came with cable tv, and numerous cabins for rent. If your looking for something just off of the town in Vernal, So you can visit all the great dinosaur attractions, this would be the place. They did have a small store with firewood, some sundries, and tourist gifts. They also have 2 dump stations for $10 a use out front.

    Fossil Valley RV Park

    Very good RV park

    This park is clean and well maintained with plenty of pull thru sites with room for all your tow vehicles. Full hookups with max 50 amp service and good Wi-Fi. Shady park with nice bathrooms/showers and close to stores and restaurants. The owners are friendly and considerate of your needs.

    Red Canyon

    The cabins at Red Canyon Lodge and Campground, Ashley National Forest, UT.

    We stay at the cabins at Red Canyon at least once a year, always in the wintertime when there are no crowds and everything is peaceful and covered in snow. The cabins that are available in the winter time are their "Ponderosa" units. They have two full beds, a separate living area, and minimally stocked kitchenette. They all have a cozy wood burning stove, with wood provided (extra in the antler covered shed behind the restaurant). There is a covered porch that looks out over a beautiful frozen pond, and in front of every cabin is a fire ring. They groom trails in the winter time for snowshowing and cross country skiing. Some folks even ice skate on the pond. There are no TV's or phones, so bring music and games :) The restaurant is only open on Friday and Saturday nights in the winter time, but has great food and huge windows where you can watch deer eat out of the bird feeders. You may even see a moose! The best part for us is that the cabins are dog friendly.

    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.

    Sheep Creek Bay Boat Ramp and Campground

    Big parking lot camping

    This camp area is sectioned off of the very large sheep creek bay boat ramp parking. There are just 4-5 spots on blacktop for TTs and RVs, one tiny spot for a lone tenter. No shade and big toy hauler TTs seem to hog the area. $13/$6.50 senior, NO WATER no cell signal. Trash and toilets at boat ramp about 100yds away across the blacktop parking area. Unless you are a boat person, this blacktop cg area is not my idea of a cg. No RV dump either.

    Nine Mile Canyon Ranch

    Quiet, low key base to explore

    We stayed in a campground spot with grass, fire pit and a kind of splintery picnic table. We had the area to ourselves. We were next to a  stream on the other side of a fence. Deer came to visit. Cottonwood trees all around, had not yet leafed out, but I imagine nice shade in summer. 2 very clean single stall restrooms with flush toilets and lavs a short walk away. The campground could use a bit of TLC, yet we loved our stay, because so peaceful. They also have cabins and pull through camping with shelters. Very nice person checking us in.

    Steinaker State Park Campground

    Great Base to Explore the Area

    Access to the park was easy as was check in. The camp hosts were super nice and very accommodating during our three night’s stay. We proceeded backwards through the campground as instructed to pull through site 8, which is FHUs and 50 AMP. We had to maneuver our 39’ fifth wheel so the utilities side bedroom slide wouldn’t go into a tree. The utilities are placed in the middle of the pad so that was nice. However, water pressure was only about 25 to 30 psi so we filled our freshwater tank and used the pump. We got spotty service on Verizon between 1 and 2 bars. In the mornings we were able to get our Verizon MiFi to work well. We really liked being on the upper campground level with more space between the sites and the covered patio with the picnic table. Sites 1- 8 that lead to the upper level are FHUs. Beware that site 8 is a 1/4 moon turn with a large tree then two poles out the front of the site that people have complained about hitting. We could have backed out of the site but decided to go carefully forward and we missed the poles(obvious from scrapes that some people did not), but we did scrape the branches of the trees. Pull through site 7 is probably the easiest FHU to get into. The rest of the sites are a mix of different services, i.e. water and electric or no hookups at all. They also have a couple of yurts and a cabin. The main draw here seemed to be OHVs but there were also a few people with boats. Checkout Moonshine Arch. It took us twice to find the Moonshine Arch, which is just down the road from Steinaker SP. Google maps nor Waze will get you to the trailhead. It's best to ask for directions from the camp host manning the Steinaker SP gate entrance. The first time we were not prepared and missed the turn to the left after you get on the gravel road(there's no sign). When we got to the parking area, we had no idea which way to go and ended up wondering around. There was a couple with a brochure(which you can get at the park office) but it was basically worthless. Since it was hot and we had our dogs, we bailed but did have a nice hike. The second day we were better prepared and found a blogger who had posted instructions. Basically its a.8/less than a mile moderate hike as follows: 1) go through the green gate to an old, rough jeep trail and follow it around to the right to another green gate, 2) before that green gate follow the trail to the left until you come to an intersection where you'll go right and continue until you get to the flat rocks that go up a hill, 3) climb the flat rock hill staying towards the left until you see a BLM info sign, 4) at the sign follow the trail to the left(at this point you can follow the footprints in the sand) and keep going until you get to the arch, which has a sign that you are there, and of course the arch is hard to miss at this point. Some info says you can see the arch after you climb the flat rock hill. You can see trees around the arch once you know where it is but not the arch itself. Also, if you are into dinosaurs, this is your area starting with Vernal’s museum plus state and national sights as well.


Guide to Roosevelt

Cell service can be unreliable at many Roosevelt-area campgrounds, with best reception typically found at RV parks closer to town. Nestled in northeastern Utah at approximately 5,000 feet elevation, the region experiences hot summer days with cool nights and cold winters. Most RV parks near Roosevelt remain open year-round while forest service campgrounds generally operate May through October.

What to do

Kayak to dinosaur tracks: At Red Fleet State Park Campground, visitors can rent kayaks to paddle across the reservoir to view fossilized dinosaur footprints. "Our absolute favorite part of this campground is the ability to rent kayaks and kayak over to see the dinosaur footprints. This was our first time seeing anything of the like, and it absolutely blew our minds!" reports a camper.

Explore Dinosaur National Monument: Outlaw Trail RV Park serves as an ideal base camp for dinosaur enthusiasts, located just 6 minutes from the Quarry Visitor Center. "This was a great place for us to put a group together. We had easy access to some of the OHV trails in the area but had to drive to some of the main ones back near Vernal," notes one visitor.

Fishing at Whiterocks: The creek near Whiterocks campground offers excellent fishing opportunities. "If you get one of the sites towards the back of the campground the creek runs right by it and fishing for pan size trout is a blast," shares one reviewer. The campground is about 75 minutes outside Vernal on a well-maintained road.

What campers like

Shade trees: Fossil Valley RV Park features mature trees that provide much-needed shade during hot summer months. "Park has lots of really big shade trees which would be a HUGE plus during hotter summer months," notes a camper. The park's central Vernal location makes it convenient for accessing local attractions.

Spacious sites: Many campers appreciate the roominess at certain parks. "The sites were deep and wide and we had no problem backing into the site. It fit our trailer, truck, and SxS vehicles," a visitor mentioned about one local resort. The extra space allows for comfortable setup of multiple vehicles and camping equipment.

Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathrooms are frequently mentioned in reviews. "Bathrooms were clean, water was hot," reports a camper at the KOA. Another visitor at Lakeside RV Park noted, "Bathrooms a little run down but functional. The hosts were nice."

What you should know

Water quality concerns: Tap water taste varies significantly between campgrounds. One camper noted about their stay, "We had to buy bottled water because we couldn't stand the taste of the tap water even through a filter." Consider bringing water filtration systems or bottled water for drinking.

Reservation requirements: Most popular campgrounds fill quickly during summer weekends and holiday periods. Vernal Dinosaurland KOA operates seasonally from March through October and requires advance booking during peak times. "This campground is only a few blocks from downtown Vernal, but out of town enough for a rural feel," shares a visitor.

Limited shade at newer parks: Recently established RV parks often lack mature trees. "There isn't much shade at all since the RV resort is new and still growing trees," notes a camper. During summer months when temperatures regularly exceed 90°F, consider parks with established tree coverage or bring portable shade structures.

Tips for camping with families

Educational activities: Several campgrounds offer dinosaur-themed programming for children. "We are currently planning family camp 2022, and are planning on staying here for a week to explore all the dinosaurs," shares a visitor about Vernal Dinosaurland KOA.

Recreational amenities: Lakeside RV Park provides family-friendly amenities overlooking Starvation Reservoir. "The campsite was a pull through, fairly large with a picnic table and fire ring. There is a nice dog walk/path with a great view of the reservoir at the end of the path," notes one reviewer.

Swimming options: Red Fleet State Park offers excellent swimming facilities for children. "They had a waterslide down the boat ramp and water trampoline that arent normally there. This year they have added a hammock rack to the campground that holds 9 hammocks," reports a camper who visited during the annual paddlefest event.

Tips from RVers

Campsite selection: When booking RV camping near Roosevelt, Utah, request sites away from highways to minimize noise. "Some reviews mention the Main Street traffic and it is a bit loud, but not really anything that bothered us," notes a camper about Fossil Valley RV Park.

Hookup specifications: Electrical service varies between parks, with some offering only 30-amp while others provide 50-amp connections. "Full hookups with max 50 amp service and good Wi-Fi," reports a visitor about one park, while another mentions "coin-operated showers. $2/wash and $2/40 min of dryer."

Internet considerations: WiFi quality differs dramatically between campgrounds. One reviewer reported, "WiFi is free, but each site is throttled to 5 Mbps (which is fine for basic streaming, but not HD or 4K)." For those needing reliable connectivity, confirm internet capabilities before booking or plan to use cellular data.
