"Tucked in very back. Long ways to walk from car. Water spout next to car area. Will be sharing parking with 2 other sites. 2 lakes nearby. Fire pit with grill gate. Shaded area."
"Utah is such an amazing place to visit for the outdoors. My family and I come here once a year because we love hiking and being in the outdoors."
$29 - $346 / night
"Bathrooms always close by, no showers. All sites have a picnic table and fire pit. If you’re lucky, you can get a site close to the creek. Nice, cool nights in the summer."
"Right up Big Cottonwood Canyon, this campground has the advantage of being up the canyon so you feel far away from the city, but close enough that you could go on a work night and still make it to the"
$35 - $200 / night
"This isn't the prettiest lake. It is nice and big, but since it is one of the closest to Utah Valley and Salt Lake Valley, it gets a lot of traffic."
"We stayed at the "McHenry" campground in a spot right next to a creek. The traffic noise was a bit prevalent during the day because it's close to the highway. Great tent pad."
$244 / night
"The single sites are $23 a night and be sure to make your reservation early as you are unlikely to get a walk in."
"It was quiet, tucked away from anyone. Didn't really see anyone for the three days we are there. Our site was next to the river, which really helped drown out all other sounds! "
$256 / night
"We got a site with access to the river which my kids really enjoyed. There was a fun giant "sliding rock" in the area to climb on. Lots of trees for hammocks."
"The lake is right up the road and a great place to swim and fish. There is a sliding rock for kids to climb and play on near the camp grounds. So many bike and walking trails."
$29 - $244 / night
"This is super close to my favorite mountain bike ride in Northern Utah - The Wasatch Crest Trail. As you can tell in the pictures, this area is very lush and rich with pine trees."
"The campsites are clean, the bathrooms are exceptionally clean with flushing toilets, you are a walk or hike away from Brighton and immersed in some of the most beautiful mountains around."
$28 - $159 / night
"I love how it is near a river. You can hear it at night. It's so nice to get to a cool area out of the hot valley and into the cool scenic back country of Utah county."
"While there are many campgrounds in Utah that rival it, this one is special because it's such a short drive after work."
$25 - $200 / night
"Close to fishing pond, play area for kids, beautiful golf courses, hikes, Midway/Heber cities, fishing rivers and beautiful drives up the mountains for more exploring."
"Eventually was able to get the camphost to y’all to the folks next to us. Otherwise beautiful and super convenient. Would return again"
$30 - $129 / night
"Located in beautiful Heber City, Utah. We felt at home as soon as we arrived and were greeted by a nice man on a golf cart who lead us to where we’d be staying."
"He was helpful and provided wonderful advice for the rest of our trip in Utah (Moab). The sites are a bit close, but the campground was quiet and clean.
Our girls enjoyed the pool and hot tub."
$50 - $189 / night
"I had the wonderful opportunity to stay the night at Salt Lake City KOA!"
"But there is an amazing Mexican restaurant right next to the campground."
ScoutAlmost made it all the way in my outback wilderness, but a tree was felled and hung over the road low enough that my rooftop tent couldn't pass under. This was about a half mile away from the lake. Any taller vehicles wouldn't be able to make it up. Hiked the rest of the way and spent the day fishing. The trout were very active midday into the late afternoon. The only other people that came up were riding UTVs.
TravelerThe sites are a little close and it is a very family friendly campground. It is a really fun campground though! We rode bikes and paddle boarded. Gets extremely busy on weekends but nice and quiet on the weekdays. Checked in on a Wednesday afternoon for FCFS site. Plenty open.
TravelerDecent sized spot. Enclosed by desert mountains. The water is more like a babbling brook than a stream. Great for kids and dogs to play in. Very few deep spots. Not really a fishing spot and if you were to catch it would be small. Very quiet spot with good views. Felt bad running my generator for a couple hours but needed ac as mid day hit. Sites are fairly level. However you will definitely need blocks if you bring a trailer/pull behind. Got the last site. Definitely get near the water and trees if you can.
ScoutWe love coming here! We are close to hiking and off-reading without the craziness off Mirror Lake Highway. Also, the kids love the pool and the basketball courts.
ScoutVery convenient to great recreation areas. The staff is fantastic and super helpful.
TravelerGreat off grid site - we are in Campervans - 20ft and they can easily get in here. There are bigger Caravans here as well. Nice group sized sites with camp-fires. Road in is nice and looks to be recently re-done. Lovely scenery.
ScoutGreat open area with plenty of space. Great for kids and dogs and close to the highway.
GuideThey will not tell you where to go or stay if the place is plagued with flies and fluffy stuff from the cottonwood trees. They will not advise you to stay away from the lake front on the campground to avoid all those nuisances. They will however tell you that they won’t refund you for anything!! So be careful!! Good playground for the kids but the campsites themselves really don’t do it. $50.00 for a night on top of it all. Very disappointed.
GuideThe hiking trails are cool. You’ll see some bison, lizards, jack rabbits, and unique, for us, terrain.
Nobody in my family was willing to swim in the lake. Which is beautiful from a distance.
