Fantastic! Elevated camping at it's best. It is a perfect place to play and relax as a family. The hosts were responsive and accommodatibg. We will be going back.
Tip: Bring water shoes, the ground around the pond is a bit rocky.
THIS SHOULD BE THE #1 SPOT IN UTAH!!
My wife and I took our dogs here for our first stop on a cross-country road trip and could not have been more pleased with our experience! Lacy and her husband made sure we had everything we needed from the get go.
Benjamin was beyond accommodating such a great host. There was everything you could possibly need and more already set up at our camp spot. Literally we packed like usual for camping and all we really needed was food and clothes and blankets. The Mig trailer was perfect for our family of 4 and they had hammocks and tons of seating already set up. A Blacktop grill and two burner stoves for us to use as well as pots, pans, utensils an entire storage shed with everything you could possibly need. Amazing. As far as things to do there is two ponds stocked with wide mouth bass we were catching fish all day. Water slip n slide, zip line, paddle boards, huge Sea - Doo enclosed blow up, paddle boards, canoes and paddle boat so much to do it was the best time so glad we found this place.
Lacy and Ben were incredible hosts, and this site is a paradise for families. My children said it was the favorite stop on our RV trip and loved all the adventure in the pond.
This place was great! The host was awesome at making sure we had everything we needed. The pond is so much fun. They have so many fun activities to choose from:m. I would recommend this to anyone. Great place! So much fun!
We had a blast. The host, Ben, was very accommodating and nice. If we needed anything he was right there to help. The activities and things to do were fun and in good shape.
The group site was nice and had everything you could need for cooking, playing (games, balls, etc), and seating (chairs, hammocks, etc).
The lake area was fun and we had a good time with the boats, slide, and zip line.
This is the first summer of this camp is open and they’ve done a lot of work to prepare campsites provide camp chef‘s table‘s utensils lighting and chairs just a lot of things they’ve created their zip line provided shade at their pond recreation there’s kayaks and a floating mountain you can climb on as well as paddle boards so there’s a lot it has a lot to offer and they’re still making improvements and making it better so I’m sure this next year will even be more awesome we would come back again. I will say that the water has a smell of sulfur in it but it’s still quite deep. it’s like 30 or 40 feet deep and very refreshing.
The camp site was great with picnic tables, hammocks, and games. And at night the camp fire and string lights made things really nice. But the most fun for my boys was the pond with the zip line, slip n slide, and paddle boat/kayaks/SUPs. They loved it. We also had fun playing badminton and jumping on the trampoline. Overall lots of fun for the kids, and Ben and Lacy were really great hosts.
We had a wonderful time at Lacy’s property. The campsite was huge and it was very private. We loved canoeing in the pond at sunset. This was a great trip!
