There's nothing else quite like waking up to "waterfront" property. Literally, our tent's site had a beach for the front yard.😄 We had our watercraft anchored right there, so we could wake up in the morning, & catch the glassy morning water!💦 A M A Z I N G!!!!💜 The site was well kept, NOT full of trash; and very quiet!😊 The camp hosts are the sweetest most helpful people! We'll be back next year!🏕️

Weekend Trip to Bear Lake Aquatics Base
What an unexpected, glorious surprise! We tend to find camp spots last minute as we road trip and happened to come across this location. We were shocked at how beautiful the view was. We set up our tent and didn’t feel cramped next to other people. The owner of the camp popped by to welcome us by as we were setting up. Then once we were set up we walked down to the lake and swam for awhile. It’s chilly but once you get in it is totally manageable. I highly recommend!

The hosts were nice and the other campers were friendly and kind. The view was amazing over the lake! There was room for our tents. The dirt roads were rough and could use some work. The outhouse was particularly smelly, but they were relatively clean and had toilet paper and water to wash hands with. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Site 17 sits above the sites a nice distance - meaning any loud music on the weekend is less likely to disturb you. It was lovely here at the site, a short walk to the beach (beach is open to all the sites). Very family friendly. Quiet during the week, a bit loud on the weekends with families and stereos. Camphosts do a walk through at 11 to make sure sound is off on weekends. Very family friendly. People pitch their shade tents in the beach. We honestly preferred it here over the west side of bear lake where it’s crowded with traffic, and south and north Eden campgrounds where it’s a long walk out to deeper water. There is less patrolling for dogs, unlike at bear lake state park where dogs on leashes are mandatory…which meant a nip by one dog and another family that had a campsite on the beach would leave their dogs free as a way to control people coming down the road by their site even though the beach is open access.
