    Dixie Creek Campground — East Canyon State Park

    A good example of how government campsites should be done

    Overall, the facility is neat and clean for a campground. My visit was at the end of the 4th weekend, so some messes were expected. My campsite was in good shape upon setting up my 30ft trailer. All sites are back-in and mostly flat asphalt. A little rig leveling might be needed. The outside of the loop at Dixie C.G. is electric and water only. The inside of the loop has full hook-ups. 

     All sites have long, sturdy metal tables and a metal cover over a concrete pad. A fire pit was adjacent. Even with fire restrictions almost everywhere else in Utah, wood fires were permitted in the provided pit. Common area toilets are well maintained, containing flush toilets and running water. Most service buildings also contain free showers.

    A one-star deduction is due to the effects of climate change, which is out of the Park's control to an extent. That said, my beef is with maintenance of the beach - a nice beach by the way. It's obvious where the historical water level use to be. Wish I could have seen the reservoir full because it may never happen again. But I digress. I think the park should rake or scrape the beach surface to remove offensive weeds and people's discards. That takes workers, budget and equipment. My guess is our State representatives lack interest to fund state parks for such mediation measures. It would greatly enhance the visual appeal and safety for families at the water's edge.

    Immaculately maintained campground

    We stayed for only one night, but I would come back here in a heartbeat! Big, clean bathrooms with running water, mirrors, flushing toilets, & hot showers. Gorgeous view of the lake - you can walk right down to the water from your site. Super friendly staff. Tent pads are all level and maintained after each camper. Has all the other essentials- clean picnic table, big clean fire pit, and a charcoal grill.

    Dixie Creek Campground — East Canyon State Park

    Decent water destination!

    We went during the summer and had a great time. The views were perfect and the lake is active with choice of water fun rentals. The site is standard with a small lawn area and a pavilion. Bathrooms are onsite as well as showers. Pet friendly but need to be on a leash at all times. Great for RV’s as power and water is present on each site.

    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.

    Tanners Flat

    Good location for exploring Wasatch Mountains and Salt Lake City

    You really need to know this: No dogs are allowed because this campground is in the Salt Lake City watershed.

    And this: As inviting as the water running through the campground may look, you are not allowed to swim, wade or wash in it.

    One more thing: Gate closes at 10 pm although that didn't stop some partiers at the next site in from us. They partied and left around 11 or so. There was no payment tag on the post. The exit is open but has tire shredders if you enter over them.

    A pleasant surprise at a Forest Service campground: 10 lbs of ice for $2! (There was also the usual bundle of firewood for $6.)

    An unpleasant surprise: Old, dirty bathrooms. I've seen cleaner vault toilets elsewhere than these flush toilets.

    There is no water for now (July 2018) in bathroom sinks or at spigots. The host said something about a pipe issue and water needing to be tested. That covers the amenities other than dumpsters.

    What about the sites? We arrived on a Sunday morning when the host was putting up signs indictating which sites were reserved. We had 3 possible sites among 1 through 19 and grabbed #9, a pull through site with a buffer between the road in the parking/small RV area.

    Sites in the other area (higher numbers) were becoming available, but that area's host said many of the sites were only appropriate for tents.

    Our site #9: There are a few steps down to the picnic table, fire ring and grill plus a separate area to the left for a tent. See photos.

    General site info:

    • Some sites have a concrete pad for the picnic table, etc.

    • Many sites have an area for the tent that is away from the picnic table and concealed from the road.

    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.

    Hailstone - Upper Fisher Campground — Jordanelle State Park

    Great camping spot!

    The state park was great! The campsite was great! Very clean and well kept! Also dog friendly,, so that was good, they had a doggy poop bag station by the the people bathroom! We stayed in D Loop close to the water! Our spot had a cement pad with a picnic table, a fire ring, a grill! The tent pad was nice! The bathrooms were close and very well kept! They were cleaned every day! The showers were nice and there were several of them! The only negative thing was it was close to the highway so we could hear the cars driving at night!


Guide to West Jordan

Cabins near West Jordan, Utah provide shelter in an area that experiences significant temperature fluctuations throughout the year. Summer highs often reach 90°F while winter temperatures can drop below freezing, particularly at higher elevations. Most cabin accommodations in the region require reservations 3-6 months in advance for peak summer weekends, with cancellation policies typically ranging from 48-72 hours before arrival.

What to do

Winter cabin stays: Wasatch Mountain State Park offers cozy cabin options even during cold months. "We stayed in one of the cabins over the winter. Beautiful and cozy cabin with an absolutely stunning view of Mount Timpanagos. Great access to the nice town of Heber City," notes a visitor at Mountain Valley RV Resort.

Fish from shore: Several cabins provide direct access to fishing opportunities. At East Canyon State Park, cabins sit near smallmouth bass fishing areas. "Great fishing, especially if you know where to go," mentions a regular visitor who stays 3-4 times annually.

Wildlife viewing: Cabin sites at Antelope Island State Park offer excellent opportunities to spot native animals. "Beautiful island in the middle of the Great Salt Lake. The bison are free grazing all around and a few came right up to our campground in the early morning! There is a ranch on the far side of the island which is adorable and definitely worth a visit," shares a visitor from October.

What campers like

Private shower facilities: Many cabin visitors appreciate the bathroom amenities. At Pony Express RV Resort, "Nice bathhouses with private shower/toilets. Wifi and cable. Great play area. Bikes available including kid sized. Paved 80 mile bike trail along Jordan River."

Diverse accommodation options: Cabins range from rustic to fully-equipped. "There are three pools, three shower houses, and three laundry rooms. This is a great place for kids because there's plenty of space for them to ride bikes, play basketball, swim, and also a playground," explains a visitor to Mountain Valley RV Resort.

Evening mountain views: Sunset vistas from cabin porches rank high among visitor priorities. At Bridger Bay Campground, "This place had the most amazing sunset. It was cool to drive around and see the wildlife," according to a recent visitor in 2025.

What you should know

Seasonal bug issues: Biting insects can impact outdoor activities at some locations. A visitor to Bridger Bay Campground noted: "Honeslty, 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."

Water pressure variations: Some cabin areas have infrastructure challenges. At Jordanelle State Park, a visitor cautions: "Be careful hooking up your RV to water. Very high pressure."

Dog restrictions: Watershed protection regulations affect pet policies. "Tanners flat is a close trip up Little Cottonwood Canyon. NO Dogs allowed in the canyon- it is a watershed. Very popular spot for locals to day trip or weekend trip," explains a reviewer at Tanners Flat.

Cabin spacing: Privacy levels vary significantly between resorts. A visitor to Springville/Provo KOA Holiday observed: "This park is pretty and in a beautiful location. However, the spots are small and tight. Our slide was in our neighbors yard area."

Tips for camping with families

Off-season advantages: Fall visits offer unique benefits with cabins. "September/early October gives cooler temperatures and less crowds, and we got to see some lovely fall colors. The camp hosts were excellent as well. As SLC natives, we're making this our yearly fall tradition!" shares a visitor to Tanners Flat.

Water activities: Many cabin locations offer lake access for children. At Echo Island RV Resort, "They had a small pond for kids to fish in, two swimming pools and two hot tubs, very clean and modern facilities, well maintained campsites with fire pit, a cute little shop with firewood, treats, and other necessities and they have dvds and sports equipment you can check out."

Playground proximity: Some cabins sit near children's play areas. "We did laundry and got to shower in their nice showers. Bit expensive 59 a night," notes a Pony Express RV Resort visitor, though they mentioned the amenities made it worthwhile.

Tips from RVers

Big rig considerations: Larger vehicles face limitations at some cabin areas. "This is typical camping from the past. Very few sites built to accommodate larger rigs. Narrow loop roads with mature trees at that time not well-trimmed," explains a visitor to Pine Creek Campground.

Adult-only sections: Some resorts with cabins offer segregated camping areas. "There's a section that is for adults 21 and older where children are not allowed," notes a Mountain Valley RV Resort visitor, making it suitable for travelers seeking quieter environments.

Concrete pad specifications: Many cabin sites include engineered parking areas. "Flat, level parking spots - many pull-throughs. Very quiet," mentions a Pony Express RV Resort visitor, though they caution the sites were very tight for larger vehicles.
