Three campground were immaculate! Flush toilets were a very welcome change from the norm for USFS sites. The camp hosts were exceptionally friendly and treated the entire campground like it was their backyard. As we drove through St George it was 115, but our campsite was 76 during the day! There were definitely some bugs, but using bug spray completely solved the problem. The lake and the meadow and the trees and mountains and the views were all gorgeous! Our kids LOVED the canoes (my wife and I had a lot of fun with them too)! We will definitely be back.
Beautiful area. Lots of pine trees and aspens. Great escape from the summer heat. Bathrooms were spotless and smelled nice, flushing toilets was a great perk. There are water spigots spread throughout camp but not at every site. Camp host made his rounds and was available if we needed him. Some of the sites are just on the shoulder of the road that winds through the campground. So your tent would be right next to the road, but there isn’t much traffic so don’t let that deter you. Metal tables with benches are at every site. The campground is at Lower Kent’s Lake. Lower Kent’s Lake is definitely not the size of a lake, but a good size pond. The free metal canoes and life jackets and paddles were such a great bonus. We had lots of fun paddling around the lake. Lots of ducks. There was a lot of green algae and moss in the lake. No one wanted to step foot in it. We didn’t try to fish there either. We did go middle of August so maybe there isn’t as much earlier in the season. We fished at Kent’s lake (right next door) and Anderson lake. Caught two fish at each. Anderson lake was clearer and definitely more fish jumping. The stars at night were breathtaking. No cell service for Verizon or T-Mobile. Just what we needed. Closest stores for ice and supplies is in beaver. You have to pack out your garbage. Can’t wait to come back again!
Nice campground, with great camphosts. Plenty of shade and the lake with is great with free canoes. Flushing toilets were a nice plus. They were clean, but a lot of flies.
One of the best campgrounds I’ve ever stayed. Clean, quite, serene, and beautiful. The lake is beautiful and has free access to canoes. You can easily hike up to the upper lake where the fishing is better. The campground hosts are incredibly nice and accommodating. They do a phenomenal job. Can’t say enough positive things about this place. We’ll definitely be back!
Loved camping here! Clean bathrooms and nice large camp sites. Had fun canoeing on the lake and playing volleyball
