GuideJust parked but lovely so far!
Easy to get to in with large passenger van. Parked right by the reservoir. Peaceful. Only bugs really close to the water. Relatively cool temps and breezy.
Nice way to stay close to Capitol Reef. Heavy rain yesterday kept us from coming earlier, but things have mostly stabilized. No problem getting here from 24.
ScoutNot easy to be found late at night
This site was not easy to be found at night and was not clearly marked. Also there was no cell phone service for AT&T and Verizon.
GuideI think the pin is in the wrong spot
I’m not sure where the coordinates for this site took us but I don’t think it was to the right place. It was way further away from Capitol Reef than specified and the sites looked different from the photos. We drove out there and it gave us a bad feeling so we turned around and found a different dispersed camping spot closer to the park. There were fire rings and campsites but it just seemed a little bit off.
