Part of Utah's Fremont Indian State Park system, Castle Rock Campground sits up a graded gravel road in a side canyon, far enough from Interstate 70 that highway noise doesn't reach the 44 campsites. The campground operates within Fishlake National Forest boundaries, with administration handled through Utah State Parks.
A creek flows through the campground, providing water access at many sites. About two-thirds of the sites accept reservations, while the remainder operate first-come, first-served. Tean B. notes that "sites are pretty private with trees blocking view of other people." The campground includes both pull-through and back-in options, plus several double sites for larger groups. Two teepee rentals offer an alternative to tent camping for $30 per night.
Flush toilets anchor the central area, with pit toilets at the south end of the loop. Potable water spigots appear throughout the campground, each equipped with buckets for fire suppression. Every site includes a fire ring, elevated grill, and picnic table. Firewood sells for $5 per armload. The Joe Lott Trail begins at the campground's south end, leading into Fishlake National Forest. An access road connects to the Paiute ATV trail system.
The state park's visitor center and museum sit about half a mile away across I-70, featuring 697 Native American rock art panels and interpretive trails. Barry S. describes the location as feeling "like being much further from civilization" despite highway proximity. Both Verizon and T-Mobile provide adequate cell service for hotspot use.
The campground operates April through October, with tent sites starting at $20 and RV sites with full hookups reaching $40. Cash payments work for first-come sites, while reservations accept standard payment methods.
Description
Campground. Located in Clear Creek Canyon and very easily accessed from Exit 17 on I-70. A small creek runs through the campground, there are no fish. This campground is operated under permit by the nearby Fremont Indian State Park. There are trails for hiking and access to ATV trails. Common vegetation in the area includes cottonwood, pinion, juniper and Ponderosa pine trees. This campground is open to ATV use. On the northwest corner of the campground is an ATV trail that will take you around the hill to access the Pauite ATV 01 trail. This trail leaves directly from the campground to the Main Paiute ATV trail in Dry Canyon, then south to Big Johns Flat and ultimately to Circleville. Big Johns Flat and Circleville are only accessible from this area from late July to the first of October due to snow drifts in the upper elevations. Another trail goes north to the Pahvant Range and Fillmore.
