Top 10+ Campgrounds near Wellington, UT

Sheep Creek is a decent spot right off the highway if you're traveling through and need to catch some Zzz's. It's close to a few trails, although only 1 of the two gates going towards Strawberry were open, so I can't speak to how the trails are. We stayed 3 nights, and it was quiet enough. It is just an open field but there are plenty of spots for plenty of people. Each night people were pulling in late at night for some shut eye but it didn't bother us as we didn't notice other than the lights. It's good views and free so can't complain much.

The first and hopefully the only time I do this. Was driving from SW Washington to Moab. Needed an overnight and left late after baseball games. Reserved a spot at Mountain Home RV. GPS guided me right in to Mountain View RV. After hours. They had a user friendly board with details on available sites. I snagged one of those for the night. Filled up on water, dumped tanks, was in after 10am and out at dawn. Super easy in and out. Great nearby amenities. Sure there’s road noise but we like it. It means we’re on the road ;)

Love's is on each side of the road. On the west side are 8 RV hookup sites you can pay for, but we're self contained. Park anywhere outside of normal parking where you're out of the way and stay the night. You can park with the semis of wherever. Trash cans are scattered throughout. They have showers in the west side building; I don't know about the east. We stayed here with a 32' camper trailer with no issues. There are people all over here with all shapes and sizes of rigs.

Quiet campground in spring! Beautiful views.

This is a well-run Utah State Park. The sites have a lot of room. First time visiting here was in September. Now we were back in March to have access to showers and potable water before the next stop. Super empty, so very quiet. Not as pretty as in the summer as all the trees are bare and the grass is brown. Having had no shower for a few days, we were looking forward to hot showers. They were just barely hot, which was a disappointment. The other thing we noticed this time that we missed last time is that in the older loop with big trees the electrical boxes are on the passenger side. It worked out for us, but make sure your cord is long enough. Bathrooms clean, just wish the showers had been a tad hotter (and it was a cold day!).

Great for hunt camp or family camping. Easy access to fishing and off-road excursions, hiking and photography.

Smallish beautiful campground. Site 9 but sites 4, 5, 12 good too. 1 is private but away from toilets. Nice view down the valley to Electric Lake. Decent distance to Scofield. Relatively quiet but sites are fairly close together. 

Food aside: Ate Knorr rice with chicken, spiced it up, and Hatch tortillas for dinner. Also Sprouts Hatch M&C with Wal Mart chicken packet and Old El Paso ranch sauce, both good.

Stayed in site 8, which has a shallow and uneven driveway. We used several leveling blocks which helped. Site 6 is ideal in terms of proximity to toilets and relatively level site with trees and a water tap just adjacent. There are 9 total sites, 5 are group sites so tend to be LOTS of people around. Group sites are large and are only$20/night and site 9 is roomy, relatively private and has vault toilets adjacent. Walking trails in/around campground.

Lots of families. Safe. Rather enjoyed a sing-along one night with LOTS of kids.

2nd stay (June): Stayed again for 2 nights, this time in spot 6 which is roomier than 8 and one of only a few single family campsites. Renovation installed a new picnic table and fire pit but removed the tent pad. Water tap still adjacent. 

Big family gatherings due to large family spots, across were 6 RVs in one spot and trucks parked everywhere including on the grass. Fairly quiet and respectful but dogs were allowed to run loose and while seemingly friendly, they were not supervised for pooping. This also means bathrooms were under serious strain esp re: available toilet paper.

Nearby: On Hwy 31, appear to be a variety of dispersed camping spots, most are not well marked. Some appear to have names, but not sure if they are reservable. Most are for "groups" but are typically only $20/night, some smaller group sites are only$10/night. Seem to be largely FCFS. Several have vault toilets adjacent.

Visited nearby Huntington Lake State Park, which is relatively modest in terms of facilities, basically a lake and a campground (no shade). The sites adjacent to the lake look nice (~sites 1-5) and have partial hookups but the trees are sparse. There is a trail around the lake, but it appears mainly to be a gravel road with some benches here/there.

Food aside (freeze dried packs with our own add-ons): Had Peak beef pasta marinara with italian and garlic seasoning. FQ (fart quotient) is low. Had garlic mashed and Hatch green chile mac (from Sprouts). Added pepper jerky to the mashed before water and the cheese (Mexican blend) and one packet of fajita chicken (Wal Mart, about $1.25) and some Kinder's smoked garlic into the mac when it was ready. Also crumbled some 4 cheese Triscuits on top. 

Had Mountain House freeze-dried scrambled eggs in wheat tortillas with cheese, bacon (in at finish), and pepper jerky (in with water). Two servings would have made~4 burritos. Also recommend cutting back on the water to ~2/3-3/4c. Added pepper, garlic powder to eggs. 

Had Mountain House pad thai with chicken for dinner. Didn't add sriracha seasoning but put our own smoked garlic, Wal Mart applewood smoked chicken packet and the supplied lime, peanut butter, and nuts (supplemented the nuts with our own).

We rented a van in SLC and needed a quick spot to spend the night on the way to Arches/canyon lands. This was easy to find at dusk with a clear road. LOTS of trash around. You could hear the highway a little bit but the noise wasn’t too bad. We only saw one other person who drove in and then left. There is a nice big gas station/truck stop about a mile away open 24 hours so we went there to use the bathroom and get gas. Not sure why this post calls it Canyon Road. It’s off of Consumers Road then Dump road. We did have service with T-Mobile and Verizon.

We needed a spot to stop heading west on 70. Arrived here at 6:30 pm on a September weekday and there were still 6 or so spots available FCFS. We picked a large site. The grounds have very large trees that shade the campsites. The bathrooms were spotless. Didn’t use the showers. Very quiet campground. One train before bedtime. Looking forward to visiting the John Wesley Powell museum on our way out of town. Water and 20/30/50 amp electric. $45

We needed a place for the night after leaving the crazy busy area of Moab and this was the perfect spot. We will absolutely return again but with the ATVs.

There were several people camping and riding their ATVs and SXSs but when the sun went down it was quiet and so dark. The night sky is beautiful.

Pack it in and out but a perfect place for us. It had rained the day we arrived and it was not muddy and no problem getting in and out.

The road getting in has a bit of wash board so just take it slow.

Stayed behind the rest area fairly close to the road. No one else here. Nice scenery quiet. Signs of past partying. Little bit of trash I picked up. Other than that I will stay here again.Gorgeous sunset

It was essentially a bunch of RVs and cars parked in a field, so minimal privacy, but feels very safe! Cows come out at night and wander about, so look out for cow patties!

Pull through and back in sites available. The back in sites are right on the edge of the hill that leads down to the water. Water and electricity. There’s a place right outside the park to dump your tanks.

We took a 21’ bumper pull to a double RV site and had a super great time. Site 46 on loop B is so good, double RV spot, right by the bathroom, tons of extra room for a tent if you want one

Toilets flush! Honestly one of the best bathrooms I’ve seen.

The northern part of loop B is really close to the dock if you’ve got a boat.

We had a couple prairie dogs and chipmunks visit our site. Didn’t bother us, still wary of humans, but they were fun to watch

Only one site I felt comfortable pulling a 27 foot trailer but it was beautiful and I wished I could have stayed longer. Watch out for rain. The dry wash beds will flood and I’m lucky I left when I did.
