"Tucked away from SLC, it's a perfect little oasis."
"We enjoyed the camp site and the short walk to the lake. Facilities were clean and staff was great."
$30 - $40 / night
"Arrived around 2pm on a Friday and stayed at Cutler Flats. Didn't look at the other campgrounds so can't speak to them in particular. Drove up and down the loop and most were available at that time."
"The sites were plenty big, each had a fire pit and picnic table and were close to legit toilets. It was beautiful. Worth the drive to get a little further off the beaten path."
"This was a nice spot tucked away from the interstate but not super far. Clean restrooms, nice staff. Stayed here twice on our trip to Moab. Plan on staying again on other trips to southern Utah"
"They have a lot of orchards near and fresh fruit stand close by which would be great in summer but in the fall it made the area buggy. Easy to get in and out of. Level sites and a quiet area."
$28 - $62 / night
"It wasn’t right off the river but it was still only a 30 second walk to the river."
"Close to the river and nice roomy site with a table and fire pit. Bathroom within walking distance!"
$60 - $150 / night
"This park is a great stopover on your way through Utah or weekend visit. The lake is clean and still very natural. The swans circling the water are something to see."
"This campground is right next to the I-15, and a set of train tracks that seem to see daily use."
"The utilities were in the perfect position for an RV towing a car. The front desk was super friendly and gives popcorn every day. Very walkable park and safe."
"Our biggest complaint about this park was the minimal distance between sites. It does have close proximity to a lot of what Ogden offers."
$59 - $74 / night
"River and walking trail just steps away from all sites. Would be nice if the dog park was finished. There are other amenities that are planned to be available, but are not available yet."
"There is a dog park area and access to a trail which runs along the river. There is a lot of noise from the interstate and the nearby Air Force base."
$38 - $63 / night
"Close to hiking trails and lake."
"But it is quieter than being next to the freeway."
$60 / night
"I arrived at around 6:30 PM with no reservation and had no issues. The guy at the front gate was a peach, super kind and helpful. It’s $25 a night for a tent site."
"We had spot 119 and had a perfect view of the beautiful mountains behind us and the lake in front. We had beach access down to the beach and got to watch the sunset completely private."
$26 - $246 / night
"We stayed here one night and liked it for all the trees and shade, and yet still being pretty close to the city and lake."
"It is only 10 miles or less off the main highway, yet very private with lots of trees! Great birding, too!"
TravelerThe sites are a little close and it is a very family friendly campground. It is a really fun campground though! We rode bikes and paddle boarded. Gets extremely busy on weekends but nice and quiet on the weekdays. Checked in on a Wednesday afternoon for FCFS site. Plenty open.
TravelerThis is a great family camping spot we found near Logan, UT.
Very green, lush, and beautiful.
Great for tent camping, but not all sites can fit a camper.
So make sure you pick the right site for your needs.
The river running through the camp is also awesome.
The only reason it gets 4 stars instead of 5 is because it doesn’t have flushing toilets.
Still one of my family’s favorite camping spots
RangerFor a stop on the freeway, this is a decent campground. Memorial Day weekend there are already loads of bugs. It would be a great spot in the dead of winter. There are quite a few trees, some amenities like toilets and a playground on site. There’s also a walk from the campground to the lake and a nice beach area there. We drove down to the south side and there’s a marina so it’s a great spot if you’re wanting to do some boating.
ScoutGate doesn't open until Memorial Day weekend. Keep that in mind when planning a visit here. TONS of places to camp further up if you are in a tent. Trailers should stick to the lower sections as it gets a bit difficult to navigate past the second campground.
GuideThe hiking trails are cool. You’ll see some bison, lizards, jack rabbits, and unique, for us, terrain.
Nobody in my family was willing to swim in the lake. Which is beautiful from a distance.
TravelerOnly stayed for one night, but the sites were all super clean and well maintained. Close to some good hiking trails!
TravelerWent with 3 kids 8-1.5yrs. We left a voicemail and were texted back letting us know about the availability. We spent Sunday to Monday on site. Checkout time was 1 pm. Which is perfect with kids giving us time to pack up. The site is intended for RV's and parking like a parking lot, with just enough space for your Tent and a canopy with 2 cars in the spot with the fire pit. Only Secondary Water available, it has a pump out and flushing toilets in the bathroom. There is a stream nearby with walking access. My littlest one walked around without shoes and was okay for grass and weeds to soften his feet. Another note is that this should be generator free. But we did have 1 person in the park run their generator past midnight. You can also hear the freeway as it is nearby.
TravelerCamped with friends we had cell service via t-mobile, att&t, and visible with varying strengths. No cost, first come first serve. Bathroom is a about a mile from the coordinates. More campgrounds open in June, no service at them. Popular trail with bikers. Lots of traffic even late at night.
TravelerMyself and 7 other friends just drove up this last weekend and camped for 2 days.
We dealt with rain and even snow on the last morning… But there was green grass and a spot for fires and the Sheriffs rolls through and are super helpful as well.
We found a spot that was more of a hill, which made it neat to get around, but the site was LITTERED with spent ammo, broken glass and broken pieces of clay pigeons. Another group camping near us told us they found the same at their site so be weary of where you step up here.
Great for dispersed camping, but watch out for bears and mountain lions as well and make sure you follow the food rules and lock your cars. We didn't see or hear anything, but the Sheriff that stopped by warned us.
Cell service is also spotty here. I have Xfinity Mobile and I had decent coverage here and there.... everyone else had T-Mobile and they were also spotty, but more so compared to mine, so AT&T (who I think XM uses) is slightly better.
