      Mountain Valley RV Resort

      Mountain Valley RV Resort, Utah

      One of our all time favorite RV parks. 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. There is an adult only section if you’re looking for peace and quiet away from kids. The concrete was level and spacious, each with its own picnic table.

      They have two dog parks, one of which is the nicest and largest one we’ve seen thus far. The laundry room was sparkling clean and located adjacent to the pickle ball courts and outdoor fire pits. They have an on-site RV wash available and allowed us to borrow an adaptor from them at no charge. We enjoyed an evening in their hot tub/spa. They also have a large pool area near the bathrooms that were the most well maintained bathrooms we’ve ever used on the road. To top it all off, they have a gorgeous fitness center with weights, a treadmill and elliptical available to all guests.

      Overall we were extremely impressed with all amenities and the customer service provided at Mountain Valley RV Resort and would recommend it highly to anyone visiting the area.

      Nunns Park

      Close to river and in the mountains with a highway close by.

      This is a great place to pitch a tent or come up and stay for the day. The only bad part about this camp site is all the highway noise. It is close to the Provo river and there is lots of shade so that is nice. Great place to have a camp fire and cook some S'mores.  The bike path is close so bring your long board or bike and go for a ride. This is withing walking distance from Bridal Vail Falls so that is a great day hike and see the falls. Also great fly fishing in the Provo river so do yourself a favor and bring your fishing gear.

      Quiet, shaded area

      Quite area, lot of room. I stayed on site 58 (tent only). Enough room for 2 medium tents. Next/above stream. 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. Full sun from 10am-4pm.

      Mountain Valley RV Resort

      Clean and Cozy

      We only stayed at Mountain View for one night while passing through, but we enjoyed our stay. The office staff was super friendly. Mark came out on a cart to usher us to our site. 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. The laundry facilities were nice and even had a designated machine for pet laundry. The restrooms and showers were private and clean. The water pressure was high and temp was hot. There was a beautiful fire pit near the pool along with pickle ball and basketball courts.

      This facility is near the highway but the road noise wasn’t a problem for us.

      We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

      Strawberry Hideout

      THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

      My family and I love camping and have been building our camping arsenal and experience. This campsite gave us a good time and also helped us realized what we needed to add to our “Need to Buy List: Camping Edition.”

      First, the Pros of the visit.

      1. Designated campsite with deck, fireplace and table! Deck was well built, practically brand new and the same with the fire pit. The fire pit is a smokeless one so the smoke would travel through a ventilation built into it.
      2. Has service! We had full bars throughout the campsite. We were even able to watch the Rookie in our tent before bed!
      3. Gas station is just 5 min down the road! Nice little gas station that’s prepared to help you with almost all your needs, including flushable toilets!
      4. Strawberry reservoir is about 15 min from the campsite and there’s plenty to do there! I won’t go in to detail but we spent majority of our day there.

      Now the Cons.

      1. The campsite is in the middle of a sketchy RV graveyard! Abandoned buildings and RVs were scattered all over the vista. It was sorta creepy but if you like that kind of thing, go for it!
      2. No shade in sight! No trees or anything to provide shade from 7:30-6ish (the sun goes behind the tent around 6). So bring a canopy or two because we forgot to bring one and were scorched! Also the tent heats up like a sauna with the sun beating on it, even with all the windows down and doors open. So if you’re planning on coming back for a relaxing afternoon nap, good luck with that!
      3. The wind will take your tent if you’re not careful! The wind gusts would be so powerful at times it would almost carry out tent away from us. We had ours on the deck and it was an ample target for the biggest tent-napper out there: the wind. Without a way to put stakes because you’re on the deck, we were exposed. Thankfully they had cinder blocks under the deck we could use but man it was surely a pain in the butt! So come prepared!
      4. Bring bug spray and sun screen! We got burnt so badly and there were ants and ant hills everywhere! I counted at least 5 different ant species crawling around the camp table.
      5. Private property signs everywhere. We wanted to explore around our campsite but due to so many private property and no trespassing signs, we never got to explore around us because we thought we would get shot.

      Overall, it was not a bad campsite! I think our experience wasn’t the best but that’s mainly due our unpreparedness and lack of experience. There’s many things to do in Fruitland area and also places where you can enjoy the peace and quiet! I hope our learning experience can benefit anyone interested in go to this campsite! Happy camping!

      Little Mill

      Great for short trip

      My family of five enjoyed this campground. 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. Downside is it's right next to a busy highway and picnic areas. Although the campsite has quiet hours, the picnic area across the street stayed loud well past quiet hours. The road noise was a lot more than I expected.. especially at night. Definitely bring ear plugs or plan to stay only a nite or two. We planned on staying three nights, but were so exhausted by lack of sleep we left a day early.

      Camp by the creek

      I got a site right by the creek. Set up my hammock and listen to the running water.

      Only negative is the site is off the main canyon road and there is some traffic noise during the day.

      Utah Lake State Park Campground

      Lots of trees for shade and lots of bugs.

      This is a fun place to stay when you want to go someplace close. There are lots of trees for the summer months and lots of shade. There are a couple good beaches. This is Utah's biggest fresh water lake. There are lots, and lot of bug so bring bug spray.

      Awesome mountain views. Good fishing in the Provo river or lake fishing. You can build a fire and get firewood from camp host. There is full hook ups and also spots for a tent. Most spots have a pavilion and nice tables. Great bathrooms with running water. I can't remember which spot we stayed at but they are were really nice.


    Guide to Springville

    The Springville area sits at the base of Utah's Wasatch Mountains at approximately 4,500 feet elevation, providing easy access to higher mountain campgrounds that reach up to 7,400 feet. Summer temperatures average 75-85°F during the day, dropping to 45-55°F at night in the higher elevation camps. Camping options range from accessible sites with concrete pads and modern facilities to more primitive backcountry locations along mountain streams.

    What to do

    Hike to Fifth Water Hot Springs: Located near Diamond Fork campground, this popular 2.4-mile trail leads to natural hot springs. "The hiking around this area was amazing. We absolutely enjoyed these trails. We did a hike that was about 10 miles roundtrip with low elevation gain," reports one visitor who camped at Whiting Campground.

    Fish in mountain streams: Access trout fishing in Diamond Fork River just steps from your campsite. "There is a really nice river walk trail that is fun for kids and adults and the fishing is really good in the river that is close by," notes a camper who enjoyed the brown and cutthroat trout fishing opportunities.

    Mountain biking trails: The area offers trails for various skill levels with less crowded options on weekdays. "Diamond Fork campgrounds are so clean, family friendly and nice. The bathrooms are always kept up, the trails for hiking and mountain biking are clear," writes a reviewer about the maintained trail systems nearby.

    Explore Red Ledges: Near Diamond Fork, these geological formations include a small arch formation accessible via a short hike. "We walked up the creek and across the road to explore the Red Ledges. Discovered the cool arch," shares one camper who enjoyed the geological features.

    What campers like

    Waterfront camping opportunities: Utah Lake State Park Campground offers lakeside sites with water activities. "This is a fun place to stay when you want to go someplace close. There are lots of trees for the summer months and lots of shade. There are a couple good beaches. This is Utah's biggest fresh water lake," explains one visitor.

    Cooler temperatures at higher elevations: Payson Lakes sits at higher elevation, providing relief from valley heat. "One of my favorite summer get away spots. Lots of fish in the lake, great bike trails and amazing views all around. With it being a 15 minute drive from Payson makes for a great time," notes a regular visitor.

    Educational nature trails: Several campgrounds feature interpretive trails suitable for all ages. At Diamond Fork, "There is a really nice river walk trail that is fun for kids and adults... There is a well maintained nature trail that passes through the campground. There are educational kiosks along the trail."

    Non-motorized lake recreation: Payson Lakes prohibits motorized boats, creating a peaceful environment for paddling. "Great fishery for children and youth, as well as an amazing area for swimming and kayaking. They do not allow motorized boats, so it is safe."

    What you should know

    Reservation requirements vary: Most popular sites book quickly during peak season. "Reservations required and $24 base price - yikes!" notes one visitor to Whiting Campground, while another Diamond Fork visitor advises, "It can get busy in the summer so call or reserve ahead of time."

    Bug activity: Mosquitoes can be problematic at certain campgrounds, particularly near water. One camper at Utah Lake State Park Campground warned, "The mosquitoes here are terrible. I came here early on a holiday to get a good spot and was ambushed by swarms of mosquitoes. You can literally watch them raise from the ground ready to attack."

    Wildlife encounters: Prepare for possible wildlife encounters including deer, elk, moose and bears. "I have seen elk, deer, moose, wild turkeys, and black bear in and around the area and campsite so don't leave food in your tent and clean up your campsite," advises a Diamond Fork visitor.

    Road noise varies by location: Some campgrounds experience traffic noise despite forest settings. "My only reason this campground didn't get 5 stars is due to the horrible road noise. I seriously thought I was at a truck stop off the interstate. Honking and racing cars until 3am just ruined it," reported one camper at Little Mill.

    Tips for camping with families

    Educational bear track trails: Children enjoy the educational opportunities at Diamond Fork. "This campground is very kid friendly. There are painted bear tracks that tell a story in and around the two loops of the park," mentions a family who camped there.

    Playground access: Jolley's Ranch Campground offers playground facilities near campsites. "This campground was really crowded when we went and we had really loud people right by us which was frustrating but overall it was a good site with a fun playground close by," notes a family camper.

    Safe wading opportunities: Look for campsites with shallow stream access for children. At Jolley's Ranch, "The site is right on a small stream that has some small trout in it... The only problem we encountered was some poison ivy that was along the bank of the stream. But, once identified, it was easy enough to keep the kids away from it."

    Multi-family yurt options: For families seeking yurt camping near Springville, Utah, consider double sites. "There are some hike in tent sites but they are set up for dual tents and are priced as such so they are $44 which is quite speedy for a pack in tent site," explains a Diamond Fork visitor, though similar pricing applies to yurt options at nearby campgrounds.

    Tips from RVers

    Concrete parking pads: Whiting Campground offers concrete pads at each site. "Every site had shade with concrete parking and fire pit. Great place for families," notes one RV camper appreciating the level surfaces.

    Size limitations: Many canyon campgrounds have limited space for larger rigs. "Our 20' trailer does fine" at Nunns Park, notes one RVer, suggesting smaller trailers work best at many area campgrounds.

    Generator restrictions: Verify generator policies before arrival, as many forest campgrounds restrict or prohibit their use. "The sites are big enough to fit our truck and 2 tents," shares a Whiting Campground visitor, highlighting the adequate but not excessive space available.

    Water and hookup availability: Check current utility status as systems occasionally go offline. "The water was not working at the camp the weekend we were there but we received an email from Recreation.gov the day we were supposed to arrive notifying us that it was off due to an issue so we were able to bring in water before hand," reported a recent Diamond Fork camper.
