    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Strawberry Hideout campground features a large deck, smokeless fire pit, and picnic table specifically designed for families camping with pets. The site allows dogs throughout the campground area with no breed restrictions. Mountain View Campground at Fred Hayes State Park and Lakeside RV Park both provide full hookups for RV travelers with dogs. Guests note that pet waste stations and marked pet exercise areas help maintain the cleanliness of these campgrounds. The camping deck at Strawberry Hideout offers security for pets that might otherwise be affected by strong winds, with cinder blocks available to secure tents from gusts. While most sites require pets to remain on-leash, several designated areas permit supervised off-leash play.

    Trails surrounding the Strawberry Reservoir provide excellent dog walking opportunities with access points near multiple pet-friendly campgrounds. During summer months, the swimming pond at Promised Land Resort allows dogs to cool off alongside their owners, though owners should bring bug spray as ants are prevalent at some campsites. The Wild Wolf Ridge area offers secluded pet-friendly camping with proximity to fishing spots where dogs can safely accompany anglers. Most campgrounds maintain a 10pm quiet hour policy that applies to barking dogs. Campers should note that while the Strawberry area welcomes pets, many surrounding properties display private property signs, limiting off-site exploration with dogs. The local gas station five minutes from Strawberry Hideout provides emergency pet supplies and clean facilities.

      Tie Fork Rest Area

      Rest stop is great!

      This is a rest stop. It's great. There is a dog park. Water to hook up to for a fill. There are a ton of picnic tables and a paved walking path through an outdoor educational museum. bathroom too. Perfect for an in between salt lake and Moab.

      Mountain Valley RV Resort

      Friendly and immaculate

      This spacious RV park has two pools (one limited to adults only), two dog parks (one large enough for big dogs to run and fetch), two sets of pickle ball courts and is spacious and level and nice/ oh, my.

      The staff are friendly and lead you to your RV site (and actually collected and filled and delivered our propane tanks). They have a few cabins but are mostly laid out for newer RVs. They ask the age and type when making reservations. Good Sam discounts apply. This is a very nice “the only 5 star “ RV Park in Utah.

      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.

      RV Resort!

      This was a great place to stay! Had 3 different pools/hot tubs and the pools are heated so they arent freezing. Nice laundry and bathrooms as well. We had a back in site at the end of the row and there was a large grass area and fire pit that was great! Had a large dog park and pickle ball courts too!

      Castle Gate RV Park

      Great Base Camp

      We chose this area as a central location to Moab, Provo and SLC! Nice scenic drives to all of those places from camp and did not feel too far out. Campground was clean and well kept. Staff is very nice and helpful. It will be beautiful in a few years with the landscaping investment they have made. Plenty of individual showers. I recommend the ones at office building, they are bigger. Laundry facilities great. Huge plus is dish washing sink with hot water. It is always nice to not have to wash dishes in camper. Dog park, playground and splash pad. My only caution is that it is between Highway and railroad tracks so if you are noise sensitive be aware. We didn’t notice any major noise and slept very comfortably with the nice flowing River behind us. Helper is cute town to explore.

      Mountain Valley RV Resort

      Great Central Spot to explore area

      Found this spot last minute. It's fancy. Way fancier than we usually pick, but the price was right. It was full when we arrived on a Saturday. But thinned out later in the week I really enjoyed the split between the folks with kids and those without. 3 pools and hot tubs...2 for the 21+ only crowd. There are tons of clean bathrooms woth showers and 3 clubhouses. 2 dog parks...one was HUGE!! Dogs loved it. Views are amazing. It was honestly kind if refreshing to stay in a resort.

      Rock Cliff Area Campground — Jordanelle State Park

      Pleasantly Surprised

      We couldn’t find any information on this campground and found out it’s only a month old, as of July 2025. Previously it was a tent only campground that was ruined by a flood several years ago. It’s now an RV campground with full hook-ups. The campground is very clean and fully functional. The views are fantastic, located on the east side of Jordanelle. The Provo river is runs to the side of the campground and we fished multiple times a day. There’s a launching bay to Jordanelle just a few minutes away. Everything was fantastic except for one uncontrollable thing. MOSQUITOS! I’ve camped in Utah my whole life and this was by far the worst mosquito situation we had. We are covered in hundreds of bites and are totally welted. We were forced to spend many hours in our RV to avoid them.

      Castle Gate RV Park

      Tranquil!

      Beautiful RV Park!! Friendly service! Escorted to our Site# 201 which backed up to the Price River. Site was super level for us. Great space between neighbors on our side of the park. There is a picnic table. However, we took our chairs down to the river bank each evening. So tranquil and relaxing! Laundry room is nice and all machines were in working order. We did not use the restrooms but took a peek in and they are all clean and look new. Beautiful mountain scenery as well. AT&T, T-Mobile Cell Service were excellent. No issues with their WiFI. So many cable channels! If there was one Con, it was that the dog park/run area was muddy. Looks like they are watering the area to maybe get more grass to grow. However, there are plenty of other grassy spots with Dog Waste Stations and bags to walk your dog. Street traffic noise can be heard. We do have a white noise machine and it did not interrupt our sleep. Enjoyed our relaxing stay here! Highly recommend!

      Mountain Valley RV Resort

      Best RV resort we've stayed in

      If I could give it more stars I would, 5+++++. We have stayed at many campgrounds around the country and this is by far the best! Amazing staff, beautiful meticulous clean grounds and facilities, which are plentiful as well. Huge level concrete sites, with privacy bushes between, awesome hook ups, WiFi and cable. Trash pick up, huge dog parks, which are best we've seen. We have paid twice as much for far less. The scenery from the campground is breathtaking. I am writing this sitting at the heated pool looking at snow covered mountains. The town of Heber is so quaint and nice. 20 min to Provo and BYU, 25 min to Park City, and 50 min to Salt Lake City. We will definitely have to make this place a stop on our next westward trip. LOVE IT HERE.


    Guide to Tabiona

    Camping areas near Tabiona, Utah stretch across the Wasatch Cache National Forest region at elevations between 7,000-10,000 feet, where summer temperatures typically range from 70-85°F during daytime hours. The Strawberry Reservoir dominates the landscape at 8,100 feet elevation, creating a high-mountain climate that often produces afternoon thunderstorms and cool nights even during summer months, requiring campers to pack layers regardless of season.

    What to Do

    Fishing at Currant Creek Reservoir: Located at higher elevation, this fishing destination offers cooler temperatures and good trout fishing. "Lake is too far to walk from the back campgrounds. Good fishing especially if you can get out on any kind of watercraft. FireWood available at host," notes Mike D. from Currant Creek.

    Swimming at designated spots: Summer visitors can cool off at the swimming pond at Promised Land Resort. "The swimming pond was a great place for my kids to play. I randomly tried this resort and it will definitely be one I go to again," shares Akasha L. from Promised Land Resort.

    Hiking mountain trails: Explore trails surrounding the Uinta mountains with well-maintained paths. "There are several ATV/OHV trails in the area. The camp hosts said that we could have our SxS in the campground as long as it was street legal," mentions Shad G. about their time at Currant Creek.

    What Campers Like

    Cooler temperatures: The higher elevation means relief from summer valley heat. "Headed up this way to escape the valley heat. Temps are significantly cooler," reports Taylor S. from Soapstone Basin.

    Wildlife viewing opportunities: The area provides chances to see native wildlife in their natural habitat. "Plenty of trees, flowers and wildlife including hummingbirds, deer, sandhill cranes, moose, beaver, chipmunks, squirrels and fish," explains Michelle E. about Currant Creek Reservoir.

    Secluded camping spots: Campers appreciate the more remote locations away from crowds. "Campground is more remote so it's great if you want to get away from large crowds. Higher elevation so you escape some of the summer heat. Fishing is good for trout," states Charles W. from Strawberry Bay.

    What You Should Know

    Rough access roads: Many campgrounds require navigating unpaved roads. "Dirt road is washboard hell, but you are rewarded when you arrive to a clean and quiet campground stay," warns Michelle E. about Currant Creek.

    Variable weather conditions: Pack for changing conditions throughout your stay. "Super cold at night so pack warm clothes!" advises LaDell G. from Strawberry Bay about temperature drops.

    Reservation requirements: Most established campgrounds fill quickly during peak season. "As the most popular campsite in the area, I was a little worried we wouldn't be able to snag a spot. But we went up on a Tuesday and there was plenty of room!" shares Casey M. from Mirror Lake.

    Limited services: Many campgrounds have minimal facilities. "There was no water available in the campground the last few times we were here. There are no hook ups-electric, water, sewer at this campground," reports Michelle E. about Currant Creek.

    Tips for Camping with Families

    Paved areas for kids' activities: Choose campgrounds with hard surfaces for bike riding. "The camping area is all paved and the kids loved riding their bikes all day. It's just a short drive down to the water with a beach area," recommends Erik J. from Mountain View Campground.

    Dog-friendly campgrounds near Tabiona: Most sites welcome pets but have specific rules. "Good campgrounds with flush toilets and water hookups. No electric or sewer hookups. Sites are spacious enough and have fire rings and tables," notes Mike D., highlighting amenities at Currant Creek that accommodate family needs including pets.

    Bring cash for campground fees: Many locations don't accept cards. "Bring cash or check as they do not take credit cards on site," advises Michelle E. about Currant Creek.

    Tips from RVers

    Full hookup availability: Several campgrounds offer RV amenities near Tabiona. "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," explains Shad G. from Soapstone Campground.

    Site configurations and clearance: RV-friendly sites vary across campgrounds. "There are two RV areas; one is Beach area, the other is Mountain View area. We stayed in the Mountain View area. The spaces are large, level, and easy to get into. I think they all have electricity and water. They are paved, as are the roadways," reports Melody M. about Mountain View Campground.

    Weather and access considerations: High elevation locations require planning. "It was extremely busy when we went, but managed to find a spot mostly to ourselves. There is a couple of miles with pretty rocky roads so i wouldn't risk a low clearance car," cautions Taylor I. about accessing pet-friendly dispersed camping at Soapstone Basin.
