"Clean bathrooms and showers. Full hook ups."
"Staff will help ensure a relaxing stay. Pool is heated but not hot, due to being in the trees there is a few floating items but gets cleaned every day. Creek runs through the front of camp."
"We booked a tent site online and pulled in around 8 pm on a Monday night shortly after the covid shutdown. It was raining and the temperature was 37 degrees and due to drop to 29 overnight."
"Set up camp. Very quiet. Minimal road noise. Everyone is spread out. Main issue—can’t really tell how far the reservoir tide will come up."
"This is a great wide open site with excellent views and an added bonus of a brewery in walking distance."
"6 spots arranged in a circle vault toilets trail behind with a bridge over the creek not very much traffic 8$ a night."

"Our site had enough flat areas for two 2+ dome dents. There was a little path to the bathrooms."
"There's a trail from the upper loop that goes to the large parking area at Emigration Pass, where there are other trails. There's some noise from Hwy 36, which is nearby though not visible."
"There is a campground but there is also dispersed free camping all along the lake. This is a beautiful place. Bring Bug Spray"
$20 - $120 / night
"Large fire pit, at the back of the campground, the creek was 10 ft from our tent. Trail for hiking right there and the cleanest bathrooms!"
"They are close together but it doesn't feel like it because there are so many trees and the creek that runs through the campground is loud enough to drown out other's noise. Great fishing and hiking."
"Mosquitos are pretty thick campsites are by lake most have a path to the lake."
"Nice staff"
"Camping gets you access to the hot springs from check in until 4pm the next day. There’s running water in the bathhouse with a toilet and shower. There’s yoga classes included in the price as well."
ScoutHad drinks and dinner at the brewery. Set up camp. Very quiet. Minimal road noise. Everyone is spread out. Main issue—can’t really tell how far the reservoir tide will come up. We set our chairs up by a fire pit before dinner and came back to them in a few inches of water. A few other people seem like they’re getting encroached by water too so just be mindful when you pick a spot or leave stuff behind.
RangerStopped here overnight on a mid-weekday on the way from Great Basin National Park to Grand Teton National Park. Nice, forested campground. There's a camp host up front that has firewood for sale. (We didn't need any, so didn't interact with them.)
My photos are from campsite #8. Many campsites were reserved for Thursday through Sunday, but no problem mid weekday to get a first come, first serve site in early July.
Our site had enough flat areas for two 2+ dome dents. There was a little path to the bathrooms. Each bathroom had two stalls, but for COVID-19 times, one stall was closed off and there was a sign on the door saying that one person was allowed in the bathroom at a time. No showers.
Water was across from our campsite. Each campsite has a table and fire pit. Some sites had little paths that went between them, so if you had multiple sites together, you could walk between them without going to the little road through the campground.
Lots of four-wheelers around, but nothing too crazy. I believe this is a trailhead for winter sports (snowmobiling?). There was a little dirt road that went off from the campground that we didn't have time to explore. Not sure about hiking trails from the campground.
The campers here were quiet and respectful, but there is road noise from the highway that runs sort of above the campground. Trucks use the highway and it's on a little bit of a grade, so you could definitely hear them. I wore earplugs and (even as a light sleeper) slept just fine. That's why I knocked a star off.
No bear boxes, but bears didn't seem to be an issue. We just kept our food in the car. There were chipmunks around who could try to steal food if you left it out, just like with any campground.
Lots of summer flowers! Also lots of summer mosquitos, but that's expected.
GuideThis is one of my favorite places on earth. They have tent sites, van sites and a selection of shelters to choose from. Camping gets you access to the hot springs from check in until 4pm the next day. There’s running water in the bathhouse with a toilet and shower. There’s yoga classes included in the price as well. The bathhouse also has a nice little shop with snacks and gifts. They sell tinfoil dinners too if you want to really relax. Highly recommend! They offer volunteer days as well where you can camp and soak in exchange for volunteer work.
GuideIt was a great campground but there were some very noisy people duromg quiet hours that no one seemed to monitor...
ScoutMy boys thought this was the greatest spot we’ve ever found…. Site 53 was by far the best in the camp. Large fire pit, at the back of the campground, the creek was 10 ft from our tent. Trail for hiking right there and the cleanest bathrooms! Camp host was friendly and helpful with on questions about exploring the area. My boys could have stayed two weeks fishing the creek! Lots of trout. Saw a moose! The water was freezing, but clean and refreshing. It was just the right altitude to provide relief from the summer heat. We did not have reservations but we’re able to find this spot and several others to chose from on a Monday-Wednesday. Seems it filled up with reservations from thurs -sun.
LegendThis campground is located along the bank of the Viva Naughon Resivoir. There are about 8 sites with picnic tables and fire pits, but is pretty primitive. There are vault toilets available near the boat ramp. The campground is FREE!
The fly fishing is excellent below the dam, which is about a 3/4 mile drive from the campground. The area is very popular with boaters and anglers alike. This place stays busy year round and ice fishing is very popular in the winter months.
I frequent this area often. I'm blessed to live 15 minutes from this great area in the town of Kemmerer.
ScoutStaff will help ensure a relaxing stay. Pool is heated but not hot, due to being in the trees there is a few floating items but gets cleaned every day. Creek runs through the front of camp. You can fish in it. Playground is adequate for children. Plenty of dog runs.
RangerDirections are clear but seem sketch when following, but you will know when you arrive. Tight area with several campers adjacent to a resevoir and huge hills of gravel ate the entrance to the brewery.
ScoutThis is a great wide open site with excellent views and an added bonus of a brewery in walking distance.
