Moose Meadow

2 sites ¡ Lodging, RVs, Tents1 acre ¡ Brighton, UT
This is a private driveway in a great location in Big Cottonwood Canyon. The driveway is long and surrounded by aspen, abutting the "old" unused house on my property, so it is private. Although near the main road, the site feels private. You are less than 1 minute walk to Big Cottonwood Creek, and there is hiking out the door in multiple directions, as well as easy biking to Solitude Resort. As a bonus, you are 1/4 mile from Silver Fork Lodge if you get a hankering for a prepared meal. Please note that there are NO DOGS allowed in Big or Little Cottonwood canyons. There is a high fine if so. So this is not an appropriate spot to bring your four-legged friends unfortunately.

The best camping near Jordanelle State Park guide

Overview

About

Built around the Jordanelle Reservoir fed by the Provo River, this park features three major recreation areas. Rock Cliff, Hailstone and Ross Creek all provide slightly different experiences.

Hailstone serves as the social center of the park. Here you'll find a full-service marina store, day use areas, and RV campgrounds. Rock Cliff, in the southeast, is your best option for quiet, secluded camping. Head to the Ross Creek area for scenic hiking and biking trails. It's also the place to be if you're hankering for good bass fishing.

If you're bringing kids who like to splash around, don't miss the Aqua X Zone. This fun inflatable playground floats on the Jordanelle Reservoir and accommodates up to 65 people!

This is a pretty popular park and the campgrounds regularly fill up in the summer. Though there are first-come, first-served sites available, counting on those is chancy. Call ahead to make reservations if you can!

Notable campgrounds

  • Hailstone Campground: A favorite for its easy access to water sports and modern facilities.
  • Rock Cliff Campground: Offers a more secluded experience, ideal for nature lovers and anglers.
  • Ross Creek Campground: Perfect for those seeking tranquility and stunning reservoir views.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early, especially for peak summer weekends, as sites fill up quickly.
  • Consider mid-week stays for better availability and a quieter experience.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations to snag a last-minute spot.
  • Explore nearby camping options for overflow or alternative accommodations.

When to go

The best time to visit Jordanelle State Park is during the summer months when the weather is warm and the reservoir is bustling with activity. However, early fall also offers a serene atmosphere with fewer crowds. Winter can be harsh, and while some activities are available, access may be limited due to snow.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast and pack accordingly, as conditions can change rapidly.
  • Be aware of park rules and regulations to ensure a safe and enjoyable visit.
  • Accessibility options are available; contact the park office for specific needs.
  • Day-use fees apply, so come prepared to pay for your vehicle's entry.
  • Remember to practice Leave No Trace principles to preserve the park's natural beauty.
