Loved this campground. Very easy to find not far off the highway but pretty quiet. Lots of great sites to choose from with many near the creek. Tons of trees and spaced out sites means you actually have privacy. Our site was massive and had room for multiple vehicles, a 26' trailer, a large tent and more. The picnic table fits 15-20 people, the fire pit is commercial grade. The potable water is just a hundred feet away next to the restroom. The restroom is flushing toilets and well lit at night. They were very clean. The campground hosts were a very friendly couple who went above and beyond to help with a jumper cable and charge when we needed it after a couple days.
Negative: quiet hours are minimal running 10pm-7am. Our neighbor decided life was all about him and ran his generator the entire day up until 10pm and right back on at 7am. His generator was not a camping generator but a cheap contractor (LOUD) generator. He was extremely rude and nothing was addressed about the generator which was a little disappointing.

Felt compelled to update the reviews from two years ago. Seems like à flood and storm came through here. Loop B is closed and there’s is no signage telling you this which would have saved us driving over there with our trailer and having to exit and turn back around.
No hookups. Bathroom not great. Fallen tree over our picnic table. Fallen limbs and trees everywhere. Only reason I’m giving his three stars and not one is that there doesn’t seem to be any better options in the area unless you wan want do an RV Park with water park etc. avoided Antelope Island because we were told biting gnats were horrendous. It was quiet. So there’s that. Needless to say it was just an overnight and we were eager to get ion the road in the morning.

Difficult to find. Roads are disaster for travel trailer. Potholes from hell. Steep inclines & incredibly steep unmarked dirt roads that we were barely able to get our truck & camper up. May be the worst place we ever tried to stay. Left without staying. Don’t think it’s fit for anything but OHV.
This campground is beautiful. Easy to access. It sounds like the last review that said it’s not easy to get in there must have came in the back way. There are sites for almost any need. This campground is well taken care of. Just remember to read the signs and follow the rules. There is a 8 day limit. Extra parking cost 8.00 after the first car on all sites except the group sites. Stay of the terrain and save the vegetation. Quite time is 10:00 pm to 6:00 am. All generators must be off by 10:00 pm. All dogs must be on a leach, and yes that means your dog too. There is a self serve pay at both loop A and loop B. All fees are due within 30 minutes. The camp host is glad to answer any questions. There are first come first serve sites available. Recreation.gov is the site to make reservations for reservable sites.

Arrived and had no problems getting in. Not a lot of RV spots. Loop B is very tight for a 26ft fifth wheel. Wouldn’t suggest going down it. Loop A is good. We actually stayed in a spot on the road between the loops. Beautiful & well maintained. Can’t wait to come back. Do recommend reservations for weekends
