    Fremont Lake

    Large campground on beautiful lake

    This is a large campground along the lakeshore.  The lake is pretty big.  Most of the sites are on a bluff above the lake.  Many of the sites did not appear to have a specific area to set up a tent, so there were some tents set up on gravel or pavement.  There are no showers available.  There was a good tent site on the upper part of our site.  We had heard reports of mosquitoes, but did not have any problems.  There were reports of a black bear in camp looking for food.  All sites have bear boxes.  This campground is conveniently located if you are planning to do any hiking from the Elkhart Park area.  We hiked to Photographer's Point and the views were spectacular.  Also, it is just a few minutes drive into Pinedale where you can sample the beers at Wind River Brewing.

    New Fork River BLM Campground

    Small rundown BLM CG

    Small Free BLM CG along New Fork River at jct of hwy 351 and the river. One decrepit vault toilet, three worn out wood tables, no metal fire rings. No water, no trash. Hwy noise an issue. However good access to river and cell signal on ATT and TMobile/ Sprint good. Verizon not so good.

    Soda Lake Wildlife Area

    Free camping on a lake

    This area is a wide open no shade glacial pothole lake. There are free designated, kind of, campsites around the lake. Couple places to launch a boat and four vault toilets scattered around. No trash dumpsters, no water, but fair to good cell signal depending on your location. Only a few miles outside of Pinedale on nice graded gravel roads. 14 day camping limit is posted.

    Narrows Campground

    Nice shady CG

    Nice shady campground with 19 sites, most FF but did see a couple with reserved signs. Vault toilets, tables, fire rings, but no water or trash dumpsters. No cell signal. However an issue is the loop roads are narrow sandy-lumpy one- way and would be risky for a larger TT or RV without some advance recon and a spotter. Most sites are sized for tent/van or truck campers. $12 camp fee /$6.00 senior. 14 day limit. No camp host.

    Half Moon Lake Campground

    Dry campsite with small beach

    We stayed at this small campground for a couple days. Only about 10 spots and nice access to a beach area.

    The campsite has a vault toilet but no water. $7 per night and no reservations

    There was a rowdy trashy element at the campsite during our visit. This would be a great campsite if the host enforced rules about the number of vehicles / campers / quiet hours.

    Small BLM free campground. 4 sites with tables and fire rings. One vault toilet. Beach area is muddy as lake level falls. No water, trash and cell signal was only TMobile. Road in is gravel dirt ok for TTs. Note that you ca.nnot get to this side of the lake by crossing over the dam.. There is no road over the dam no matter what Google maps yells you!

    Scab Creek Small Vehicle Campground

    Great CG in a remote area

    Has all the things that work for me. High elevation (8150ft) to escape the heat and access to hiking trails into the high country NF above. This is a BLM campground with 14 sites all FF, all are FREE and have a 14d limit. No camp host present. No trash dumpsters but there is a vault toilet and a hand pump well water pump. Each site has a table and fire ring. Cell reception is 1-2 bars LTE for TMobile, ATT and Verizon. Campground on my visit was completely empty, week before 4 of July. This campground is noted as the "small vehicles campground" on the BLM map boards, but the sites here are large enough for most small to mid TTs and RVs. No livestock trailers are allowed...they are to use the "livestock large vehicle campground" over by the livestock staging area. Vegetation at this campground is aspen/lodgepole with some larger Douglas firs here and there. Access from the hwy out of Boulder includes 8.5 mi of graded gravel in excellent condition.

    New Fork Lake Group Campground

    Small rundown campground

    Very rough and run down campground. 15 sites but most are overgrown and small. Not advised for TT it or RVs as the access road is the roughest I have ever encountered, almost need high clearance vehicle. Rate is cheap though..$7 nite. Sites have tables, fire rings, and there is a vault toilet. However No water, trash cans and no cell signal. There is a day use beach area though that is scenic, if you can make it down the spur road!
