What campers say

Nestled in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache, Sulphur Campground offers scenic mountain views and easy access to nearby lakes for fishing, swimming, and paddleboarding. Sites are roomy and often geared toward campers and RVs; tenters may find the ground rocky with little shade. Amenities include vault toilets, non-potable water, and trash collection — bathrooms are frequently noted as very clean. The single-lane, rock-lined approach can be tight, and extra-vehicle fees are enforced. Camp hosts generally maintain the site and can be helpful, though visitors report mixed interactions, so expect attentive management during your stay.
