Antelope Island State Park is the main draw for campers using Roy as a base, with the park sitting off the causeway into the Great Salt Lake west of the metro. Roy itself is a Weber County suburb with limited in-town camping. Ogden-area dispersed camping in the Wasatch hills is the best option for no-fee camping accessible from this part of the valley, with forest roads heading east into the mountains. Developed campgrounds in the Wasatch canyons have vault toilets, water at many sites, and defined sites with fire rings.

GuideI didn't realize that this is also a family fun park when I reserved the site. It is all an extra fee, but you will get a discount if you're camping. 50 amp Sites are asphalt and the rest are dirt and grass. Sites are a little tight but they did try to leave spaces between if possible.
GuideImmaculate park. 2 dog parks, Laundry, shower, playground, indoor and outdoor kitchens, workout center, board games, dog wash, store, EV charging stations and so much more. Level concrete pads and table at every site. Mostly pull throughs, and premium sites which include your own gas grill, outdoor table and chairs. I'm sure I'm missing something, but this was worth the $71 a night for back in site to me.
ScoutThis is a good stop over place. It has a pool, store and some outside games. No shade at all and no space between sites but the staff is excellent
GuideThe whole family loved this spot! My son loved the pool and the playground. The lady that helped us check in a spot last minute was soo nice! We arrived almost at closing time and she kept the pool open for us to enjoy! Very accommodating and kind. They even have a kitchen that serves food so we didn’t have to worry about cooking food! They also have unlimited pancakes, cereal, and coffee in the morning. The spot was just far enough in from the main road that it was quiet. The showers and bathrooms were clean. Had a great fire and a wonderful stay!
GuideThis place has many amenities to get away for a few days or until you feel like leaving. There is a swimming pool, hot tub, adventure canopy with zipline, treetop trampoline, and obstacle course. There's many other amenities that haven't been mentioned. This place is great for kids to get the energy out while parents can relax and watch them have fun. This is the second summer we have come here and hope to make it a long standing tradition.
GuideGot here thinking I was going to have to do a back-in, instead they gave us a pullthru☆☆☆☆☆. The roads and sites are asphalted, don't know about the rest but pullthru sites have two each electric post, water hydrants, and sewer ports. One set towards the rear of site other about midway. Mowed grass in-between sites and not crowded. Shade is kinda short supply. This place is in My list stop here anytime. Wife dealt with the people on sign in and Sunday Afternoon, came back to Rig in a good mood so with that I'd say they were friendly. If Your hot there is a river that adjoins the Park.
TravelerAt an elevation of 8,950 ft, days are cool here, and the nights are even cooler. We were here in mid-July, and all the mountain flowers were in mid-bloom.
The campsites on the west side of the campground are the best (Loops A, B, and C). The sites on that side are well-spaced with lots of spruce and aspen trees between, and boast an amazing mountain garden of flowering plants that provide a beautiful privacy screen.
The vault toilets throughout the campground are clean and well-stocked, and even have garbage cans. There are water spigots at all of the toilets, and all of them were turned on when we were there. There are no RV water hookups, though.
Our favorite section is Loop C (Sites 15, 16, and 17). We stayed at Site 15, which worked well for our campervan, but the drive-through in which we parked our van would've been a little too steep if we hadn't had leveling blocks. Site 16 just up the road is very level. It also offers better options for pitching a tent compared to Site 15.
On the other side of Loop C, the only other campsite on the loop (# 17) provides excellent spots for tents, and is nicely secluded. The parking spot for Site 17 is pretty steep though, and there really isn't enough room for anything other than a short trailer.
As is normal for mid-July in the Wasatch, the mosquitos were out in full force. We had to douse ourselves in bug spray, and we still got more than just a few bites. The camp host (Michael) told me that normally they would have already sprayed for female mosquitos (i.e., the ones that bite), but budget cuts to the Forest Service have reduced the mosquito-abatement team to just one person, and this person is now the sole individual performing spraying for 88 different campgrounds in northern Utah.
There aren't a lot of hiking opportunities in the area other than an ATV trail that runs near the campground, but we were content just to chill in the cool mountain air and to stargaze at night.
TravelerThis is a great area to camp
TravelerGreat camp spot and right next to lagoon

Waterfall hiking: North Fork County Park features a hidden waterfall trail accessible directly from the campground. "Had a great stay at North Fork.

Water recreation: Pineview Reservoir near Anderson Cove provides swimming and boating options from May through September. "This was a really nice place for only being 40 mins from the city.

Spacious sites: North Fork Park receives high marks for site separation. "This place is favorite spot to camp if I'm staying local. There are so many spots, and they are all very private. The Camp hosts are great! There's a hidden waterfall you can hike too, and a river runs through the park," shares a regular visitor.
Sunrise and sunset views: White Rock Bay Campground offers spectacular lake views. "Hands down the best campground for sunset views on all of Antelope Island! The sunsets in the fall, and winter are the best as the bugs have gone down considerably and therefore you won't get eaten alive," advises a camper at White Rock Bay Campground.

Mountain bike or hike, you will have a good time," notes one visitor. Another camper at Riverside RV Resort adds, "We had 30/50a options, WiFi, water & sewer at our site."
Bug activity: Biting insects can be severe, particularly on Antelope Island. "It's hard to walk or bike because the bugs are so bad. I don't just mean the odd bite, I mean coated in biting gnats as soon as you go outside your vehicle," warns one visitor. Another camper notes, "Lovely scenery, water is currently off so no showers but has a clean pit toilet. Only downside was the no see um flys you can't go for a walk without getting swarmed by them and bitten."
Seasonal water availability: Services at some campgrounds change seasonally. "Right now the island doesn't have water so come prepared. Electrical hook ups," reports a camper at Bridger Bay. Water systems typically shut down between October and April.
