Hidden gem past lake

First stay and was perfect. Got spot 18 on FCFS. Was pulling 28 foot rig. They do not have water and sewer hookups. There is water spots throughout park, however the rv sewer dump and water area was closed. Had to drive 12 mins down road to Duck Creek campground for sewer and potable water fill up. No electricity at sites. Very wooded and sites are not on top of eachother. Had no cell reception with Tmobile. Did have spotty reception at Duck Creek campground. Only 5 mins from Navajo lake.

Fabulous campground

Great secluded campground and spacious sites with Navajo lake down the road. Sites 1-19 are first come first serve. We stayed in site 19 the first night here. Was the better choice if you want the most privacy. Was a little close to a road, but not heavy traffic. The last two nights we had reserved at site 39. We loved this site the best. Walking around we had the most shade cover from trees then most other sites. And the deer will come walking through your sites as well. They do have flushing toilets and hand sinks, which is always a bonus. But no showers. They offer $6.00 showers at the cabins at Navajo lake, and also have a little general store to get snacks, ice, beer, fishing supplies and a few other things. If you like to hike and fish this is a great place! Lots of trails. Cascade falls is a great easy hike with a waterfall. No cellphone service. We will definitely be returning to this campground!

Lovely campground

Great campground - clean and quiet. We reserved a space toward the back, which offered lots of shade and privacy. Bathrooms were very clean. Short drive to Navajo Lake, where you can rent a boat, or fish from the shore or land bridge. Many other adventures nearby if you like to hike or ATV. Overall, great place.

Pleasant and relaxing

Spacious spots with trees all around. We tent camped. All spots pretty flat. Tables and fire rings at each site. Very short drive to the lake.

An experience I won’t forget!

We chose site 24, which is in a great location in terms of not being close to other campers and we had enough space for three tents! It’s also beautifully surrounded by aspens. The only reason I gave four stars is because it is near a road to a ranch so during the day huge trucks of cows cast dirt all over the site. It’s close to bathrooms, trash cans, and two beyond beautiful hiking trails. And it is in driving distance to the Cascade Falls trailhead. Not to mention te-ah is only a mile (at most) from Navajo Lake, where you can go to the lodge and rent boats and fish. Highly suggest this campground!
