Many people enjoy the solitude and primitive experience of camping away from developed campgrounds and other campers. Dispersed camping is the term used for camping anywhere in the National Forest outside of a designated campground. Dispersed camping means no toilets, no treated water, and no fire grates are provided.
Camping in dispersed areas on the Forest is allowed for fourteen (14) days in any thirty (30) day consecutive period. Campers must move off Forest after reaching the 14-day limit. The stay limit also applies to all camping equipment (tents, chairs, ATVs, ATV trailers, etc.), even if used by a different person or group. Camping equipment must be removed by the end of the fourteen (14) day stay limit or the equipment may be impounded. Stay limits are implemented to reduce impacts to vegetation and wildlife habitat, as well as provide access to popular campsite areas for other visitors.
USGS Quad - Bridger Lake and Gilbert Peak; Leashed pets are permitted. This area is popular for its fishing and hiking, it is close to wilderness access.
Located at 6755 ft. the campground has 4 walk-in campsites that are 50 yards from the parking lot. RV camping is permitted in the parking lot. The campground is conveniently placed between two reservoirs, each stocked annually with game fish, making it an ideal fishing destination.
From the Henry Fork Trailhead (approx. 9400 feet elev.) the trail gains very little elevation during the first 5.5 miles with several lakes to camp by along the way. The first lake reached is Alligator Lake. At just under 3 miles from the trailhead, this beautiful lake is an excellent choice for those who are looking for a nice, easy introduction to the altitude and rigors of backpacking. After passing Alligator Lake the trail continues on the Henry's Fork Trail for another 3 miles. At this point, you'll reach a trail junction known as ElkHorn Crossing.
You can take the trail heading due south. This trail is the most direct route. After 2 miles, it will pass by the most popular lake in the area, Dollar Lake, which has a numbers of excellent established campsites near by.

The site overseer Tony was helpful, and professional. The grounds maintained. The bathrooms well stocked, clean and offer good hot water pressure for showers. The tent site is large, grass and away from the RV sites. Definitely a spot we will stay again. Note the site offices close at 7pm. We had no reservations so you must arrive before 7pm. Our visit late late September 2024
Loud music coming from the bar next to the campground. Hard to get any sleep for the drive.
Beware the pretty pics don’t show how bad this place really is.. Ok they can’t help being situated right beside the freeway and the constant noise from it that makes it very unpleasant to sit outside and even the staff wear industrial earplugs at night. It’s the rest of it that’s really bad, from first meeting the arrogant manager he made it pretty clear that he wasn’t here to help or be nice. The laundry required quarters which they couldn’t provide, was told to download an app which he then told us rarely works on an iPhone. I’m not here to help too bad you don’t have quarters Ladies bathroom out of order Gardeners with industrial gas blowers and mowers started at 8am in the morning.. why couldn’t they schedule them for 11. But the rude manager said that’s just the way it is. Have stayed in many RV parks, usually with friendly people, this place is the worst. Also the other items that others have bought up, like parking right next to each other, the list goes on but our recommendation is don’t come here!!!
This campground has many spots! They were all clean and convenient. If you stay on the northern side of the campground, expect to hear cars and trucks through the night. I stayed in spot 31 which was spacious and right next to a little stream. The lake is close by and accessible by a trail in between two campsites. I heard a pack of wolves howling right around sunset but seemed a decent distance away. Definitely chilly at night time, but that’s expected this time of year. Highly recommended :)
We camped here at the end of August, and the weather was perfect, chilly at night but not horrible!
This is a hike in area of camping. Luckily the park provides free wagons so that you can pack up and hike to your area. The hike is about a quarter mile to the general area where there are lots. This area is tent camping only. The views are great and the water is great! It is dog friendly with a leash. Each lot has a paved area with a picnic bench and fire pit. Really enjoyed this place!
Arrived on a Friday afternoon and snagged a spot with a great view but no shade, which was fine with me. The site was nice and flat with a fire circle. The road in was a bit rough because Google maps send me the back way and not on 150. I could see neighbors but not hear them. Minus one star for the tough access after rain and for the reservoir being dry on the end of this particular spot.
We could not have asked for a more perfect spot. The views were immaculate, the sites were very spread out, it was the end of September and all the leaves were changing.
No notes. Can’t recommend this spot enough.
We went during the summer and had a great time. The views were perfect and the lake is active with choice of water fun rentals. The site is standard with a small lawn area and a pavilion. Bathrooms are onsite as well as showers. Pet friendly but need to be on a leash at all times. Great for RV’s as power and water is present on each site.
I had a lovely stay. The grass was nice and green. The WiFi was strong. Easy pull in pull out. The owner and employees were lovely. I did not use any facilities. But I would highly recommend!!!
Great boondocking spots if you’re willing to get off the beaten path and get a little dirt.
We got site 12, which worked great for us. The site has 3 spots for tents ranging from 3 person to 6 person, but we used the parking space because we have a giant tent
The north end of the loop by the lake is the best spots. 16, 17, and the others right by the lake. I’d avoid the spots closest to the highway, not because of the noise, but because they’re VERY sloped, kinda looked hard to set up there.
Pit toilets, so be prepared for that.
Bugs weren’t to bad honestly. We had a fire going and Thermacell so mosquitos didn’t bother us.
Moosehorn Lake is GORGEOUS. We didnt fish but we heard it was good fishing.
This site is maybe 1 mile up the road from Mirror Lake which is a must-see. Very easy walking trail around the lake, perfect for small kids
The site host was great, very helpful, nice person
It was PACKED tho. Every single spot was taken when we got there and we got lucky finding a spot for 2 nights. Try to get a reservation if you can. We only got in due to a last minute cancellation.
We found a FF site right by the creek, close to the cold canyon waterfall trail head. The water levels were high so the creek was running pretty fast which made it loud but honestly it drowned out any noise from neighbors a it was perfect. Love the hikes, love the shade, just an awesome camp site.
Toilets flush! Just gotta bring a light
Close enough to drive to town for anything you might have forgotten.
Definitely rough reading for a portion of it. Lots of mosquitos. But super pretty and secluded. There were several spots that provide you with your own area and privacy. Bathrooms only about a 5 minute drive away. I had zero service though. Great spot and would come back again.
Was just driving til I found somewhere cool and this was it! Beautiful place but bugs were out so come prepared
There are tons of free site all up and down the main road. The only problem is it is busy if you leave on Friday plan to get there by 3 at the latest. Spots fill quick.
This is a great Basecamp to explore the Uintahs. Note that there is no easy river access from any of the sites we explored. This is partly due to the overgrowth and partly due to all of the water in mid June. We made it from our camp spot (#11) but it required crossing logs, bogs, streams, and bushwhacking.
That said, it’s a clean campground in a great setting. The sound of the river drowns out most of the highway noise this time of year, and it’s a great jumping off point for exploring the lakes and falls farther up the Mirror Lake Highway.
Note zero Verizon cell service in the campground.
Didn’t see the campground hosts once in a 3-day weekend stay (always a nice little bonus).
Clean quiet camp with 30A and water, showers and flush toilets! Next to historic union pacific rail trail for hiking and biking (many goatheads so plan accordingly- tubeless?) Runs from dam to park city about 28mi. Be sure and visit the coalville ledge and it's many mud swallows.
This site was very big & the creek surrounded on two sides. It even had 2 picnic tables. When we were here, this part of the campground was empty across from us & site beside us was empty which we loved! We got to listen to the birds. The campground kids enjoying the playground & pool were on the other side of the creek beyond a thick stand of trees.
There are no camping signs saying you can camp ⅓ mile from parking area but the only way to get ⅓ mile is to hike
Great campground for our over night stay. Clean bathrooms. Good internet. Level sites.
Dispersed camping all along the road past the Washington Lake established campgrounds
Pulled through late and found this hidden gem, electrical and water at all sites.
Location- 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.
We 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.
Looks a bit dangerous, right? If I had a choice, I would choose to stay home and play poly track rather than come here
You need to pay 6$ for 3 nights to camp anywhere in this national forest unless you have the America the beautiful pass, then it's free. At this campsite, there are no bathrooms and most campsites are right next to another one we only stayed one night the wether was nice and it was pretty
