About
National Forest
This small campground is located about six miles east of Huntsville, Utah on a curve along the South Fork of the Ogden River. A host is not on-site but can be found at Magpie Campground (west) or South Fork Campground (east). It has been a popular camping spot since the pioneers came to Utah. Although the trees are not thick, they are big and very old. Popular local recreation activities include fishing, hiking, swimming, and tubing down the South Fork Ogden River (a life jacket is required for all tubers). Nearby Attractions Causey Reservoir is located approximately five miles east. This scenic reservoir is popular for fishing and swimming. Site Details and Accessible Features

Badly kept campground
There is no map on Recreation.gov, so you don't know where some of the sites are located. I've included a pic of a map I got from a book. We had sites 6 and 7 and they both backed up to the road, which is very loud. Site 7 is right on the water, so it was nice to hear the river during that night. However, the grass was incredibly overgrown. We had 2 tents and could barely fit them. The table had a huge burn mark on it. The fire pit was falling apart and had not been cleaned out. There were rocks by where you parked that had graffiti all over them. And, we weren't at the campsite for more than 2 minutes when the host pulled up and said we had to pay for the extra car -- that's fine, some hosts enforce that rule and others don't, I don't mind. Our friends in site 6 had the exact same experience. It was like the host was waiting for people to arrive to demand the extra money. HOWEVER, in the 3 days we camped there, he cleaned the bathrooms once! It was muddy and dirty and disgusting. The host is not onsite -- he was at a nearby campground. No way we are camping here again.

Great place to camp! Next to Weber river & Clean sites!
This is one of our family’s favorite getaways close to Pineview! Bathrooms are always clean, sites are always clean, & we’ve always had GREAT camp hosts! There’s only 1 double site, but we’ve got multiple tents and 1 trailer in site 4. There’s also parking across the road to park overnight for extra cars for free!
