Summary
There's no potable water, so bring your own. No reservations or permits are needed, and camping is free. Nestled along the Fontenelle Reservoir in a semi-arid, high-desert setting with sagebrush and wide-open skies, it’s ideal for fishing, boating, and wildlife viewing. The vibe is peaceful and remote. Nearby attractions include the Green River and Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge. Best visited from late spring to early fall for mild weather and full lake 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.
