Sheep Creek Bay Boat Ramp and Campground

CAMPER SUMMARY PRESENTED BYFord

Sheep Creek Bay Boat Ramp and Campground, near Daggett, Utah, is a straightforward spot that caters primarily to boaters and RV campers. It’s right by the boat ramp, making it super convenient for those looking to hit the water, though the camping area itself is pretty basic.

The campground has a few designated spots on blacktop, which some visitors found a bit cramped, especially when larger RVs take up space. There are toilets available, but you won’t find showers or water hookups here, so come prepared. As one camper noted, “If you are in an RV with a boat and enjoy blacktop camping, this is the place to be.”

For those who enjoy a bit of adventure, the surrounding area offers great hiking opportunities, especially if you head west into the forests. The reservoir is also a popular spot for cliff diving, so if you’re feeling brave, that’s an option too.

While the lack of shade can be a downside, many families have made lasting memories here, with one reviewer sharing, “My family has been camping here for 29 years!!! It’s a very quiet place!” If you’re looking for a no-frills camping experience close to the water, Sheep Creek Bay might just fit the bill.

Great site ONLY of your there with a boat

This is a sectioned off section ofr the parking lot at the boat ramp where 4ish rvs can park/camp. While the camping isn't much, it is right at the boat ramp/launch which is super convenient. There are toilets. Very little shade.

Big parking lot camping

This camp area is sectioned off of the very large sheep creek bay boat ramp parking. There are just 4-5 spots on blacktop for TTs and RVs, one tiny spot for a lone tenter. No shade and big toy hauler TTs seem to hog the area. $13/$6.50 senior, NO WATER no cell signal. Trash and toilets at boat ramp about 100yds away across the blacktop parking area. Unless you are a boat person, this blacktop cg area is not my idea of a cg. No RV dump either.

Beautiful area close to the resevoir.

It's hard to find a bad spot to camp at the reservoir and this campground is not an exception. The site we were in had plenty of shade and had a picnic table and a permanent fire ring.

This area is on the west side of the reservoir so you have plenty of hiking opportunities heading west up into the forests. If you continue on past the dam there is cliff diving at some boat docking sites on the east shores

Close to boat ramp

If you are in an RV with a boat and enjoy blacktop camping, this is the place to be. Close to the boat ramp, easy access. When we are with my elderly family who need to be stable we stay here. If we are just us and the kids and dogs we go stay at Dutch John.
