RIVER BEND CAMP GROUND

3 sites · RVs, Tents1 acre · Morgan, UT
ENTRANCE TO OUR PROPERTY IS STRAIGHT NORTH AT THE END OF THE PAVEMENT. PLEASE DO NOT TURN LEFT ON SESSION LANE! We have ten acres that our home sit on but about 9 acres that consist of dry farm grass. We use 1 acre for camping and parking. The Weber river runs across the back of our property where we have a campground with tables and firepits. This is a family campground. We do not have Electrical Power or Water hookups. We have added 4 wooden porta potty enclosed in small tents which we service every day or as needed. Site selection is determined by type of sleeping accommodations. We have two tent areas and 1 RV spot. Sometimes we can accommodate more RV's on a exception basis **We allow 2 adults per site and/or 2 adults and minor children per site. (Family Exceptions must be approved) We are not a public campground and only list through Hipcamp and so our property is posted with NO TRESPASSING SIGNS. It is very important to let us know your approximate arrival time and call when you arrive. We will guide you down to the campgrounds and show you the best spots base on your type of camping. (Sleeping in trailers or van's versus tent campers) One draw back to our property is that we are within 1/2 mile of a well use highway (US 84) and railroad track. We have only had one camper who was concerned about the noise. Here at the house we don't notice it and maybe we are just use to it. Limited swimming and use of paddle board based on river conditions. Fishing is limited because we are on private property and the river is not stocked by the Utah fish and game. So, we are dependent on normal reproduction of the fish. Fly fishing being the best however you can use lures but not bait of any kind . We would prefer catch and release. ALL UTAH FISHING REGULATION APPLY. WE HAVE INDICATED WHEEL CHAIR ACCESSIBLE. THE WHOLE AREA IS BASICLLY LEVEL AND GRASS AND BARK COVERED.

Second Chance Ranch

1 site · Tent1 acre · Morgan, UT
My husband Shaun and I fell into rescuing horses quite by accident.  We started a non-profit to promote the Rescue, Rehab, Retrain and Rehome method to get horses out of bad situations and into good homes. We are a small rescue and hope to be much bigger one day!  Please come visit, enjoy our beautiful property and support an amazing non-profit cause while you are at it! Learn more about this land:We are a non-profit horse rescue situated on one acre. The best description I can give of our property is that it's great for a convenient and quaint "Stop and Sleep".  This is because we are located right off of the old main highway and have two neighbors within eyesight from the house. This site is very convenient for quick stays since it is so CLOSE TO THE HIGHWAY this makes it convenient but may not be appropriate for very light sleepers or for extended stays.  The camping area is simple, with wild grass and a fire pit, bordered by the river on one side and the horse pasture on the other.  You can see and hear the river easily April-July. The river is seasonal and does dry up in mid July-August. Drinkable hose water is available near the house.  If you want a ranch-style camping experience with lots of interaction with your hosts and opportunity for adventure then you have chosen the right camping location! You are welcome to join in the daily choring activities or choose to be taken on a scenic trail ride or thrilling guided gallop on beautiful and well-trained rescue horses.PLEASE NOTE: The bathroom is located in our house and has a flushable toilet and shower with hot water. Bathroom hours are 8am-9pm.  Parking is located a few hundred feet from the campsite, just off of the road.  You must walk a few hundred feet to get to the campsite and you cannot pull your vehicle right up to it. While we do welcome car campers and pop-up trailers, just know you won't be parked at the campsite if you choose to sleep this way.  We look forward to having you camp with us!

There is a fabulous view of the ski resorts and the Utah Olympic Park from our neighborhood.

This is a great place to stay if you want to explore the Park City area. Close to Park City Mountain Resort and Deer Valley if you want to come in for a ski weekend or an extended stay. Please inquire about available access during the winter. Great access to mountain bike trails right from the property. Glenwild Loop, Cobblestone and Flying Dog are accessible from the neighborhood. The Rail Trail is also accessible from the neighborhood and can take you to Old Town. A great eBike option. Visit mountaintrails.org for the many bike trails in the area. A great little hike up to ponds is a short distance away, also. Pet friendly but must be good around other animals. Our house is on the property and we have 2 large friendly dogs and cats. There are also deer and elk that cruise through our property and neighbors riding their horses down the street. Inquire about water and electric.

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. Please note that currently the utility companies are burying the powerlines. While the site itself is accessible and free of equipment, they have been using the road near it to store equipment. It is a bit unsightly so please keep this in mind when booking the site. Normally, it is a very beautiful view and feels a bit secluded despite being near the road right now the view out from the driveway is of utility equipment. So if this will bother you, please consider a different site for now. I will update this as things change.

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.
