Loved our campsite! But they really need to repair the massive potholes near the group site you have to turn around in the campground there and it is really a problem because they are so deep.

Beautiful location, large campsites, quiet neighbors, and clean toilets. I could not ask for a better camping experience! Being so close to a small river was really fun for the kids. I was concerned about being so close to the road, but it was only a few times a day that I remembered it was even there when a motorcycle went by. There is no traffic on that road at night. It was over 100deg in SLC, but never got over 75deg here. Absolutely wonderful!

We have been to the exact location for a number of years now and we really enjoy it. It is a wonderful place where the family can spread out and still be close enough to feel like we are together. Several spots have nice trees and shade and we never fail to see moose and deer in the campground. The host was a wonderful and kind young man who is doing a nice job this summer making everyone feel welcome.
