Beautiful views from everywhere at this campground, lots of picnic tables and firepits, plenty of places for tents. The road up to the campsites are HORRIBLE, we had about 5 miles of rocky, extremely bumpy road before the campsite.

Absolutely gorgeous place to camp. We made it up there fine in a regular car. The roads inside the campground are super rough though. When you hit a T in the road, I suggest going left instead of right!

I just wish the road was a little better getting there. Besides that it was a nice shady campsite with super clean bathrooms, wonderful camp hosts, and near lots of hikes. Provo Peak was our favorite which is pictured along with this comment

Beautiful place to go. You can hike or mountain bike up there. If you mountain bike it's amazing but quite difficult going up.
