Narrow sites; small showers; senior receptionists were very nice. The grounds are a paradise for dogs and children. Lots of acreage, playground equipment for children and dogs. Dogs have their own pen to play in. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
YIKES!!! $39.00 "Keep On Adding"! We were in a bind and had no other choice. We always avoid KOAs because the price is outrageous but this was just too much especially for the location. Typical KoA, 40 minutes to check in as new hosts were being trained but, they were pleasant. I should have parked on the street! I will next time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Office personnel were really great and friendly. The park had a lot of what appeared to be transit workers. The sites were very narrow and crowded. WiFi worked great. Good for an overnight sleep but too crowded for more than that; at least at the KOA price. Cable TV was $1 extra! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a pretty nice park. They have a large green lawn we were able to walk our dogs on and a pet playground. The spaces rock not cement but each has a small grassy lawn with a picnic table. We stayed in a 38' fifth wheel and had just enough room. The only bad thing is that their laundry room does not have many units. Also, they won't allow you to have anything in front of the trailer. We had to put our truck in the shop and they wouldn't allow us to set his toolbox anywhere outside. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very small, tight sites - easy enough to pull in to but no good green space around. Has an OK pool. A good overnight stop but I wouldn't stay here long. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Owners were friendly and glad to see me. Pull through spaces were short and tight for my 38' rig. They had a fenced doggie play area with agility stuff. My dogs were not very agile, but enjoyed all the smells of dogs that visited before. Plastic bags and a disposal can were supplied. The area was very clean. Highway 191 was a real challenge, with 10 switchbacks in 2.5 miles north of the campground. We found a Chinese buffet called Win On, which was the best I have ever had. Every item we tried was perfectly prepared. The town is beautiful, with flowers lining all the main streets. We enjoyed the visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Our site was long enough for a 40 foot MH, but hardly wide enough for our slides. We had to walk under our bedroom slide to get to our car behing the MH. Our cable connection didn't work so the manager put a spliter on our neighbors - then his didn't work. Like previously stated there were a lot of working people, but they were quiet and had little junk spread around. One reason I rated this park down is that people came from a back area and drove fast in front of us raising dust on the gravel road. The park was building a new bath house. It looked like there was a nice pool and play ground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground was not too bad. As the previous reviewer stated, the sites are a bit close together and can be crowded if the park is full. The WiFi is intermittent at best as it seems they need to reset their WiFi hardware several times a day. Once their office closes at 8PM, the internet soon dies after that. Vernal is a booming town with all the recent oil drilling and homes to rent are hard to come by. There are a few "rough necks" (folks that work with oil drilling) who are camping at the site, but they are very quiet for the most part. The park seems to be very quiet in the evening with no loud parties or radio. Probably would stay again if ever in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The new owner is very pleasant to deal with; they were having problems with their computer and she had us park and register later rather than stand around and wait in the office for the problem to be fixed. Sites are crowded together as is typical in areas with a lot of tourists. A major issue with the park is that apparently some big new pipeline project was starting the following week and a great many of the sites were being occupied by construction workers and their families who were going to be there for weeks or months, so the park looked and felt a bit too much like a low-rent trailer park rather than an RV resort catering to tourists. We were only able to get a site because our motorhome is a 20' Roadtrek; travellers in big rigs were being turned away. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great location and the pool was very nice. Sites are a bit too close together, which takes away from the overall great place. Grass on the sides and lots of room for tenters. Our shade came from the 2 RVs on either side of us. However the staff was very nice and we'd definitely come back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The grounds and buildings are well maintained and the staff was highly visible getting the pool and other things ready for the busy season. Depending on where you are, sites have either paved pads, gravel, or you are parking on grass. Could be a little tight if you and your neighbors have slide outs. Decent shade trees, which is rare in this area. Some road noise, but not too bad. Rest rooms were clean when I checked. No fire rings at the RV sites and the dumpsters were overflowing the two days that we were there. After driving by a few other parks in the area this is probably the nicest place you will find. Price listed is for a full hookup site without cable TV. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Friendly staff, clean park, nice playground. The pool was fantastic as we stayed there during an incredible heat wave. Wi-Fi was tricky to access. You needed to be near the office. This is definitely the best place to stay in Vernal. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We enjoyed our stay at this park. The owner is pretty laid back and there is often no one on-site. Most of the time, site selection is self serve, first come first served. We had a nicely shaded spot. Satellite reception was a little tricky due to the tall trees. Cable is available for a small charge. There is a lot of traffic on US 40/191 through Vernal, but we did not notice it at night. The campground is close to downtown with restaurants, a Smith's market and other businesses within walking distance. The Maverick station next door seemed to have the lowest diesel price in the area. This was a convenient location for visiting Dinosaur National Monument and the Utah Field House Museum. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I was in space 16 on the South End and there was no Wi-Fi signal there. Verizon 3G works great here however so it wasn't an issue. The large Aspen and Cottonwood trees offer great shade but they obstruct the roof-mounted dish. Cable TV is included with 1 HBO channel so it wasn't a real problem. It's a nice, well groomed and quiet place to stay. Also, there is a hair dresser shop on the property and it's a great place to get a decent men's haircut. Don't know about women's cuts? We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very laid back park: just come in and pick your spot. We had some issues with leveling. Cable TV worked fine, Wi-Fi signal was weak as we were at the far end from the office. Nice big trees for shade. Works great for an overnight stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park turned out just fine for us with our 45’ motorhome. The entrance, while a bit hard to spot, was easy to turn into and had no real grade to deal with. The in-town location was quite convenient and the city noise level was OK. Far from manicured, the park was still neat and clean. Access to the site was good and the wide spaced, mature trees were no problem with our four slides. Shade from the trees was welcome on the hot days we were there, but they didn’t block satellite reception. We will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Pleasant campground. As noted, most of units are permanent, but not a problem. We had Verizon, so don't know about the WiFi. Cable was good. Level sites; big shade trees. I would recommend. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The owner of this park is pretty casual and did his best to be sure we enjoyed our stay. The Wi-FI is spotty away from the office and the trees, while beautiful, will play havoc with your satellite but the cable is good. The sites have been angled in the past few years and it makes parking much easier. We had no problem getting in or out of the driveway so don't know what the past reviewer had as a problem. About 2/3s of the park is full time but we had no problem with any of them. We rated it down due to maintainence and Wi-Fi. Both could be easily remedied. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is right in the middle of town, steep driveway, we dragged our bumper going in and out. We were only seven spots away from the office but could only get WiFi for a few minutes in the morning before we checked out. The manager told us most people come down to the laundry room to use the WiFi. The showers are pay showers, .25 for 3 minutes, and the laundry was $1.50 for a washer and $1.50 for a dryer. The Maverick gas station next door has good coffee though. There is a grocery store right across the street. We like to camp, not just park. This is definitely just a parking lot with trees and hookups. They charged us a dollar a night more than the price on their web site, and they charge for AC or Heater use. Children are welcome but they will cost you per head. This is one of those nickel and dime places that knows they are the only show in town so can add on all sorts of charges. We won't stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is one of the few extra-ordinary places to be. This State Park is easy to find, but before you know you are driven to far and after a lot of miles you can return (our RV is 32'). They have only 7 sites with full hook-up and 6 of them were reserved. We did not know that reservation was possible and were very lucky with a beautiful site almost on top of a small hill. The pull-thru place offered a beautiful outlook on three sides on the lake. If you want to swim or go on the water with a boat or so, ask for a place on the lake side on the lower part of the camping ground. We enjoyed the sunset and sunrise with a splendid half covered sky; like an natural artwork! We can recommend this place to anyone. We camped here in a Motorhome.
