    What a stunning campground! So many beautiful sites, and so close to SLC! It made for a great…read morestaycation for my husband and I. We had site 64, which was at the very end of the campground in a small loop with bathrooms in the middle. There were 3 sites in the area, and our site was extremely private due to the trees and because you have to go down a set of stairs to reach the table and fire pit. We parked our trailer at the top, which ended up being great, but I'm not sure if the site has a tent pad or not. Our site was tucked among the trees and had hiking trails leading in multiple directions behind it. It was clean, but the bathroom was full of those gross sewer flies (which maybe can't be helped?). The sound of the flowing river was extremely soothing and even drowned out the sounds from our [super drunk] neighbors. I'd highly recommend checking out the pictures of each site on the recreation.gov website. There are many beautiful and private sites, but many that weren't as private or level (if that matters to you). I'd also recommend booking as soon as the reservation window opens, which I think is in January, for the best sites and dates. The campground is almost always completely full as you get closer to the summer months. This is my new favorite spot for sure, can't wait to return next year!

    Granite Flats is a very nice campground with large camping spaces. Close to the Resevior and other…read moresites also. We stayed in #8 for a cab over camper and we towed a bike so plenty of room on asphalt very level too. The table and fire pit area were cemented with easy access to put up our portable tent shaded area which came in handy when it rained. Our family live in Utah and they came up the week we stayed there since it was only a half hour drive from where they live for evening campfires and BBQ too. Quiet, pretty, warm, friendly campers. The outhouses look nice on the outside but our smelly overall. No dumpstations up there either. Made reservations a head of time which was nice guaranteed our spot since we traveled far too so can book online as well it was busy there. Overall nice place!

    This is a beautiful campground-lots of trees, near water and remote enough to feel like you're…read moregetting away, while still close enough to town if you run out of beer and need to make a quick run to the store. Camp sites are clearly labeled with the site number as well as the reservation name-which came in handy when we didn't have our site number and needed to drive around to find our reserved location. Camp hosts Deb & Del were friendly and helpful toward the end of our visit, but when we arrived they were making their rounds and we missed them. The sites were a little tight to navigate-not that they were close together (they're not-there's plenty of privacy!) but the road is narrow and doesn't leave a lot of space to navigate around. Our trailer is 26 inches, and we made it with the help of a few other campers who guided us in. I did not see any pull through sites (they could exist, just not in the loop where we were), so if you're new to backing in, keep this in mind. There are bathrooms available, although we did not use them since we had facilities in our trailer. We did have cell reception (T-Mobile) but our friends (AT&T) did not. Neighbors were respectful and were quiet after hours and we had no problems with our site. After we got setup and started making dinner, we were already checking our calendar to see when we could come back. Smith and Morehouse may become one of my new favorite destinations!

Not just busy busy but omg, where will everyone park? How long do I have to wait in line? Can I even count the number of paddleboarders and kayaks? There's no running water. Nada. Nada drop. So, bring your own! Campground Loop A has a river running through it. But if you have a big rig, a toy hauler , you should think twice as the road was narrow and windy. Spots are NOT pull through - master of maneuvers is needed. However, there were many massive RVs, which made moving down the winding road a challenge. Quiet time was observed by most campers (always subject to change - lol). Plenty of dogs were seen and thankfully, not heard. Outhouses were well kept. We stayed through to a Tuesday - campground decreased by 75%, and there were few people on the water. The night sky here is incredible! HINT: set your camera to a 30sec open shutter.

    Perfectly situated off of the Mirror Lake Highway, and perched near the tranquil waters of…read moreButterfly Lake, this campground is probably my favorite designated camping area along this great stretch of scenic road. Winning that distinction is no small feat, as there are so many spots to stay along Utah's most prominent scenic byway, but it's just got so much going for it. First, it's at about 10,300ft in elevation, which means that in the blazing heat of summer, you may just kiss the '70s, spend most of the day in the '60s, and have those incredible nights in the tent in the '40s where you thank your lucky stars that you have someone who will go up the Mirror Lake Highway with you and hike by day, and snuggle up in a sleeping-bag-for-two by night. I've not actually had that last experience, but it's on my list. At any rate, the elevation is just what you need in summer, and is not to be messed with in cooler temps. The Highway actually closes during winter, so this campground typically doesn't open until around Memorial Day each spring. The namesake lake is delightful, and planted with willing trout. There are no monster fish lurking in the deep, but the kids will get a kick out of drowning a worm beneath a bobber. I also like that the lake is far enough away from the campsites that you're not constantly worrying about little ones wandering off to play in the water. The further up the road in the campground, the more true this is. If you're looking to launch off for adventure, there are hikes on hikes on hikes. My favorite ever lackadaisical hike I've ever had was on the MLH, but you can find your own. The western terminus of the Highline Trail is just a few hundred feet away down the road, so check that out for a starting point, or grab one of the other many trailheads at your disposal-Ruth Lake, Mirror Lake, Fehr Lake-those are all bodies of waters and names of nearby trailheads. I typically stay in dispersed campsites, but having a few resources, restrooms, parking, and a picnic table is nice sometimes too. I dream of staying here in the height of summer, of making overly-complicated camp meals, of wandering the creeks, of homemade marshmallow s'mores, hand-churned ice cream, and that warm sleeping bag at night.

Current Creek campground is a large place with 4 loops. My favorite is D loop because it's closest to the lake. Bathrooms have flush toilets but no showers. Each camp site has a picnic table, grill, fire pit and concrete pad. The camp host station sells ice, firewood and some bare essentials. The star of the show is the lake. Usually you'll find me sitting on the shore waiting for a fish to bite. I've caught rainbows and tiger trout. But even if you don't catch anything the views are spectacular. If you should get lucky and decide to keep your catch there is a fish cleaning station by the boat ramp. Directions, there are 3 ways to get there all involve a bit of graded dirt road. You can take hwy 40 to the Current Creek Road and drive up next to the river, then around the lake. Next option is to turn off hwy 40 at the chicken creek area and take FS road #82. The turn is just before the UDOT facility. Lastly you can take center street from Heber past the Timber Lakes community. There is no cell phone service at the lake or campground. :)
