"The location of these grounds is money. You have direct access to the bike path that leads directly into Old Town Park City and links you with lots of other trails."
"We paid almost $50 for full hook ups on the second level. A back in site really close to two other RVs on dirt/rocks. But even though it’s right off the highway it was reasonably quiet."

"Most sites were level, however 62 was NOT! Sites were fairly close but not on top of each other. Utilities were conveniently located and accessible."
"This a a beautiful site with great people and friendly staff. The river is hard to get to but pleasant to listen to. The Velvet Ash was blooming so it looked like snow in July."
"It is conveniently located off the highway and has a gas station accessible for even the biggest RVs. The staff is super helpful and very welcoming."
"Small shop on site along with showers, bathrooms and laundry."
RangerWe stayed for 7 nights (the limit) in August of 2023. It's all paved, asphalt road and concrete pad for picnic table. Very beautiful setting with the large lake and mountains surrounding. Fishing-yes! Hand powered boating, hiking trails and lots of other lakes to explore.
There no water available but you can fill your RV, Trailer or whatever at the entrance to the Lost Creek CG which is about 3 miles east on Hwy 150. No Dump station, nearest being in Kamas.
Seems to be a popular place for local (SLC) families to gather. Family friendly so lots of kids. Quiet time 10PM to 6AM.
GuideWe are at a spot that is on a cement loop (#1) which was unlevel and it is not next to the lake but closer to the road (which is not too busy) but a view of the lake. You get a nice covered pavilion with a steel picnic table and fire ring with grate for grilling. The camp host was very sweet. Most of the sites are pull through and accommodates big rigs very well. The park managers keep it clean.

Right off the river with different options for different travelers. Close to town. Quiet.
LegendThis campground seems like it is one of the closer campgrounds to the water. It's pet-friendly, has full hookups, picnic tables, and wifi. The nice thing about this campground is it does have a beach as well as water/lake access. Not as many amenities as the KOA (Bear Lake/Marina Side).
The bathhouse was very clean. Did seem less busy than the KOA (Bear Lake/Marina Side).
RangerLocation- 39 miles south of Evanston, Wy in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest of Utah. It is on the east side of Hwy 150 and sits at 9,100'. There are 15 single site and 6 dbls sites. Reservable with water, sometimes (had it when we were there) and vault toilets.
Some sites aren't level and some sites can become lakes in heavy rain (our friends were in #3 and we almost had to get out the boats!).
Hosts were nice and kept the facilities clean.
Pretty area with the Hayden Fork of the Bear River on the east side of the Campground. Whiskey Creek Trailhead across the Hwy from the CG. Trail leads to Bourbon Lake (yes- this is Utah!).
Beautiful drive from Evanston. Ranger station is about 5 miles north of the CG. Just beyond that is a dump station. Don't remember if there is a sign but it's a hundred yards or so down a little forest road east of 150.
We tried fishing the river by the CG and below the confluence with the East Fork. Caught nothing and saw nothing.
This is one of those places where you want to have everything you need with you.
Evanston and Kamas are 40-ish miles away.
RangerRiverside RV Park is great. No frills , just a clean and safe place to spend the night or several days. $35.00 a night gets you full hook ups and a pleasant, quite spot to park. Located on the outskirts of Kemmerer, Wyoming. 17 sites are offered for RV s of all sizes. 8 are back in that are up along the Ham Fork River. The others are paved pull through. All have power, water and sewer. Owners are terrific! Cell phone coverage is very good and park WiFi is the best we have been around in 6 months! I highly recommend Riverside for anyone looking for a one night stay or needing a number of days in a charming town.( Kemmerer is Home to the original JC Penny department store). If you like to hunt for fossils, the surrounding hills are full of them. Fossil Butte National Monument is just 11 miles from town.
TravelerOverall, the facility is neat and clean for a campground. My visit was at the end of the 4th weekend, so some messes were expected. My campsite was in good shape upon setting up my 30ft trailer. All sites are back-in and mostly flat asphalt. A little rig leveling might be needed. The outside of the loop at Dixie C.G. is electric and water only. The inside of the loop has full hook-ups.
All sites have long, sturdy metal tables and a metal cover over a concrete pad. A fire pit was adjacent. Even with fire restrictions almost everywhere else in Utah, wood fires were permitted in the provided pit. Common area toilets are well maintained, containing flush toilets and running water. Most service buildings also contain free showers.
A one-star deduction is due to the effects of climate change, which is out of the Park's control to an extent. That said, my beef is with maintenance of the beach - a nice beach by the way. It's obvious where the historical water level use to be. Wish I could have seen the reservoir full because it may never happen again. But I digress. I think the park should rake or scrape the beach surface to remove offensive weeds and people's discards. That takes workers, budget and equipment. My guess is our State representatives lack interest to fund state parks for such mediation measures. It would greatly enhance the visual appeal and safety for families at the water's edge.

TravelerThis stop is nice, but not the prettiest view but super friendly staff. Electric 20, 30, and 50 amps available water and sewer hook up. Not much cell service, they did offer free Wi-Fi but was super slow. The area driving to it was beautiful. Good for an overnight while traveling. Cost was $50.00 a night.
GuideWhile heading to Tennessee in mid October, the I-80 closed closed down due to weather and car wrecks. Came up into Evanston and found ourselves in the middle of 100s of big rigs parking on the road in all Lanes, we were able to find an opening and flip around onto the other side of the freeway and backtrack to the small town of Evanston, where 100s more big rigs, rvers and travelers were trying to find respite for the night. We hopped on the Dyrt and we're able to get two spots for the night. Water and electric and sewage. 35$ a night. It was a safe spot to lay our heads and wait out the storm.
Little did we know that the next day we would need to stay again after leaving at 11 and finding out the road was still closed and not opening till 4pm. With high wind warning and blowing snow we decided to stay a second night. Was a great spot. There are train tracks somewhat close, so if that bothers you keep going. We rather enjoy them.
Didn't use showers, but did laundry and the facility was nice and clean, plenty of washers and 3 big dryers with a wash sink.
Ground we're nicely kept.
