What campers say

Manti Community Campground is a small, forested site tucked among pines and aspens with sites a short walk from Yearns Reservoir. Visitors commonly praise clean restrooms and easy access to fishing, trails and ATV/SxS riding from the campground. Sites offer good shade and accommodating space for moderate trailers, though very large rigs may be constrained. Practical trade-offs include intermittent potable water and occasional shortages of restroom supplies, so plan to bring your own. Some report flies and occasional grazing livestock nearby. Overall it’s a quiet, scenic base for fishing, hiking and off-road access in the canyon.
