Summary
There are no fees. Amenities are primitive: vault toilets only, no potable water, but campsites include fire rings and picnic tables. RVs can access the area, though there are no hookups. The camping experience is rustic and scenic—set on the forested shores of Flaming Gorge Reservoir, with expansive lake views and wide-open skies. Popular nearby activities include boating, fishing, and hiking the Bear Canyon Trail. The best time to visit is late spring through early fall for warmer temps and clear access.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
