Bring your RV, camper, van, or tent and enjoy a peaceful basecamp at the foot of Mount Nebo. Located on a flat 5-acre property just off Interstate 15, it's an ideal stop for exploring central Utah or relaxing between adventures. Enjoy views of Mount Nebo, whose northern summit reaches 11,933 feet and features a glacier on its north face. Explore nearby Santaquin Canyon and Pole Canyon, take the scenic Mount Nebo Loop, or head about an hour to Little Sahara Recreation Area for incredible sand dunes and off-roading. Utah Lake, including Sandy Beach and Lincoln Beach, is also nearby. History lovers can visit nearby Santaquin, home to the first Mormon settlement outside Salt Lake City. Explore the local museum, the original Mormon fort, historic rock walls, Native American petroglyphs, and learn about the area's pioneer heritage. The campsite offers a level gravel parking area that's easy to maneuver, mature shade trees, a restroom, a picnic table, and fresh well water from a 3,800-foot-deep well. Whether you're road-tripping, overlanding, or spending a few days exploring the area, you'll have a comfortable place to recharge.

Roam Uinta

16. Roam Uinta

33mi from Provo · 18 sites · Tents, Lodging
The Provo River runs along the edge of the property, and the Uinta Mountains start climbing from here. Roam Uinta sits at the gateway to Mirror Lake Scenic Byway, a 42-mile road that crests at 10,715 feet and opens up some of the best alpine camping, fishing, and hiking in Utah. Kamas is the last supply stop before the cell service drops out and the high country takes over. Full-hookup RV sites line the riverbank with 30/50-amp service. Cabins come equipped with full kitchens, linens, and queen sleeper sofas, because “roughing it” has a pretty wide definition. Monthly stays are available year-round for seasonal workers, extended travelers, and anyone who’s figured out they don’t want to leave. The clubhouse, pool, and hot tub anchor the common areas. A basketball court for burning off energy. Starlink WiFi across the property (a real luxury this close to wilderness). Well-maintained bathhouses and direct river access for guests who want to fish before coffee. This stretch of the Provo River is blue-ribbon trout water. Rainbow and brown trout push 18 inches. You can cast from the bank without leaving the resort, which is the kind of detail that turns a 2-night stay into a week.
