Red Canyon Campground
Reviewed Sep. 26, 2016

Beautiful Sunsets

This is a great campground that can be accessed by Vehicle or you can be adventurous and hike the 4 miles in on the Rim Trial. We chose to hike in and tent camp. The hike itself is a beautiful, easy hike. We went in the early summer with temperatures in the mid 70's You cross over skull creek and some other water run off. The campground itself is in the pines, with a beautiful view of the canyon overlook with Flaming Gorge lake at the bottom. The sites were clean with picnic tables & fire pits. The restroom facilities (pit toilets) were also clean. There is a visitor center within walking distance and Red Canyon Lodge is also within 1/2 mile of the campground and offers a small general store, cabins and a nice restaurant. My only complaint was that they did not have the water tuned on. After hiking in (with dogs) we were in need of water. Luckily the lodge was close by.. so 40 dollars later, we had enough water for the dogs, dinner and hiking out.
