Great free, first come first serve campsite that is close to Goblin Valley State Park and Little Wildhorse Canyon. This campsite is partially on dirt road which is well maintained unless you want to go off of the road onto more secluded campsites. Awesome if you want to casually climb rocks and cliffs while you are camping. Most campgrounds get harsh evening sun, but the sunset was super pretty. There are no bathrooms with running water or water stations. The nearest place to fill up on water would be at Goblin State Park.
The pavement ends about 1/2 mile from the entrance to the campground but it shouldn't be a problem for any rig. The campground is set up with a little more privacy in the individual sites as opposed to East Temple Mtn Campground (just down the road), and the Group campsite is terrific with a really large covered area and fire pit
The Temple Mountain Townsite is a beautiful place to hike. The sign said this site was an abandoned mine for uranium.
BLM was working on this CG Sept 14 2023. Improving the site pads and infrastructure. 10 sites one group, all fcfs, no reservations. No water, no trash, no cell signal. Vaults toilets. $15/$7.50 single sites, $50 group site
Awesome camp site. Killer rock walls, clean toilets, even surfaces. Just wake up and start exploring. Abandoned mines, 4x4 trails, and killer short hikes up the many buttes.
Great spot for camping and off roading
