North Eden Campground

The campground was very well maintained with clean pit toilets. Lots of open space, so it's nice for group activity. The beach is right across the campground and the water is amazing this time of the year. But it was a little muddy near the coast .

Came here on a Sunday morning and we were the only ones here. Yes, there is construction, happening but NO ONE was there. If you want to avoid big crowds and sharing space with other people, this is the worth the extra drive. It’s on the border of Idaho and Utah, on the Utah side. I stayed for about 4 hours at the end around 3 PM there were 2 other groups but plenty of space cause we were all spread out. Dog friendly. Toddler friendly. It is a short walk to the beach from the parking lot and rocky so might need sandals to get there. There are shaded picnic tables and non shaded picnic tables right on the water.

Great new developed beach, there are a few small pavilions that provide shade with tables with benches. Great place if you're looking for a newer beach without as big of crowds. It's on the east side of the lake but worth a drive to check it out!

We've been coming to Bear Lake every year for 9 years now. We prefer to stay at another campground but had to settle on this one. While it's brand new this year, it's just okay. There are some nice things and some not so nice things. While there are electrical and water hookups, there is no sewer or even dump station for travel trailers. This makes for less fun when cleaning up to leave. The beach here is pretty nice. You can tell that they brought in loads of dirt/sand but it's still pretty rocky. They do have aluminum picnic tables on the beach as well as metal pavilions with concrete slabs and tables but they are much further away from the water. The beach, like most of it at Bear Lake is shallow for a long way out, which makes it great for kids to play in. The other difference between this campground and our other preferred one is that they don't have showers here. It really makes it so nice to be able to take a full shower after the beach and not just a travel trailer shower. The employee when arriving was some young kid, 16-20 yr old. He was not helpful at all. Normally when you arrive they provide you a map or instructions on things like, quiet hours, dogs on leashes, gate closure time, location of site, fires, etc... this employee gave us nothing. Literally said, "Do you know which site you're in?" Then he taped the site paper tag to our windshield and said, "Here you go." The group we were with had worse interaction with him than that, where they paid for an extra car for the next night. Only to find out when the extra car arrived the next day, they had to pay again as there was no record of having paid the day before.

Bear Lake is beautiful. The shore at North Eden is very gradual, so you can wade out really far. The campground is decent, but there is no shade. The RV sites have water and 50 amp service, but you'll have to drive to Rendezvous Beach to dump your holding tanks. The park host was grumpy. There are signs everywhere saying dogs must be on a leash, but there were quite a few playing in the water and it didn't seem to be a problem. Overall, it was a really nice place to relax for a few days.
