Pleasant small campground. Most spots are not private. Beautiful setting! Many trees in the area and lots of flowers and green plants. Clear water lake. Very nice location! Note: I reserved #7 on the online map showing it to be right on the lake and straight-in easy backing. But when I got there #7 was two spaces to the right and up the hill to the east. It turned out to be an excellent site though, private, trees, spacious; however, it was difficult to get my 33ft fifth wheel in there because of the sharp bend and hill. But I did it. I would want that site again though.Recreation.gov will update the campsites numbers eventually hopefully, but when I was there it was two spaces to the right up the hill from the open one I expected that unobstrucually overlooks the lake. The highway to the campgrounds is not busy and eventually turns into a dirt road so the road is not busy. I spent a lot of time riding my bike on it. Great view of the lake and the trees and meadows. Many of things to do nearby including lava fields, ponds and lakes, lava tube caves, waterfall trail, small towns, and Cedar Breaks National Monument. Many sites are located close to the lake. The other small portion of the campground is directly across the road and is being revamped currently to allow large RVs to camp there. The numbering system on the recreation.gov website is not correct. Nor was it correct over a year ago. Certainly they could have fixed it by now. So to restate--we reserved site number 7 online showing it to be right next to the lake. (Actually it is physically #5.) But when we got there sitr number 7 was two places away further up the hill from where we expected to be. Pit toilet restrooms were installed while we were there June 24 to June 28, 2024.

The camp host was awesome!! So friendly and kind. Spoke with him for an hour about all the improvements they're making at this campground.
@TannerG1437301 · Camped on Aug 28, 2023 at Campsite #18
Zero amenities in the area.Not enough room at any tent sites for a smaller sized tent, and ground wasn't level at all.Original site was under construction without prior notice.Could not even camp for more than a few hours.

Beautiful campsite at Navajo Lake! Camp host was friendly and helpful

Beautiful campgrounds and campsites! Because we were early in the season and spring was still hanging around we had colder than average temps, no available water in the campground, and many of the sites were still closed. We still enjoyed it (except for the cold and snow) and had a campsite with an amazing view of the lake.

This campsite was amazing. The host was so nice and kept the bathrooms so clean. The national Forest service and recreation.gov need to get it together though. Forestry came in and redid the lower level of this campsite which was great but they also renumbered the sites. So now the site I reserved based off the location on recreation.gob’s website and some other photos I found not on this website, is no longer that same location. The site needs to be updated because the site did not work for our family and luckily there were open sites that the camp host accommodated us in. Forestry and recreation.gov need to fix this before next year as I was not the only one affected.

The campground is absolutely breathtaking, the sites are all very well-kept. This seasons camp host was so helpful and friendly, and he always stopped by to say hi to my family and I. We're already planning for next season!
@Elizabeth20437 · Camped on Jun 27, 2022 at Campsite #3
We adored Craig (camphost) !! He is wonderful. He helped us find our site, he was available when we needed firewood and was informative about the surrounding area for exploring. The area was clean and the bathrooms were a pleasure to use. Will definitely be back.

Our only issue was I paid to reserve a spot and when we got up there there was someone else's name on our spot and the spot didn't exactly match the websites description size wise and the table was pretty beat up. This was for the upper loop. So we went to the lower loop and found a vacant spot and camped there. The campsites in the lower loop are super nice though and we're great! Beautiful view also. Just not sure about the reservation mix up and description for the campsite space online

John was very helpful in directing us to our sites (the numbering had changed). New campsites were very nice (concrete pad, picnic table, fire pit, etc.) Disappointed there was no water or restroom facilities available. Would be nice to have a campground host on site to assist with the following: No firewood was available to purchase. Dogs running all over the campground with no leashes. They came into our site several times where our dogs were either tied or in a kennel. There is no telling the disposition of large running dogs and our dogs were agitated from it. Generators running all night. We have stayed at Panguitch Campground three times this year and those were very pleasant experiences.....this one not so much.

Campsites have been reorganized and renumbered. There was no email letting us know about this change. Water restrictions were in place. Again, no email letting us know about this. We changed to the new double site #4 but had to pay again for the new site (in addition to what we had paid with the reservation). Poor coordination between the campsite management at Spruces and Recreation.gov.

Beautiful location,water levels were low at this time. Hoping to camp here again. Campground #8 is two tiered campsite, picnic table and fire ring are below parking spot connected by uneven steps. Good driving distance to the Village and other locations.

I ma giving the 2 stars only for the scenery and the view. We had 2 nights reserved at spot 13 and after the first we had to leave. It was impossible to sleep at night. I recommend the management close the gates at night especially if the campsite is Full and there were even signs "Full". Until quiet hours we had to deal with the generator running right above our tent from the neighbors RV. I think may be tents should be not mixed with RVs. All night long there was a traffic of cars, trucks, RVs - you name it - making noise, throwing dust, with their headlights straight into the campers - way after midnight. This is on top of the partying, loud music and other noises. I felt like I was camping on the highway. The same story early in the morning - cars and trucks wandering around looking for spaces I guess. Will not go back.

This campground is nice, but lots of partying going on. Only a couple of sites have shade. The adjacent road is close and very busy. The camp hosts didn't enforce the 8 people max/site rule. If it was a little quieter, this place would be amazing.
@SutrisnoW735 · Camped on Jul 3, 2020 at Campsite #13
Marvelous vista, clean facility, professional and friendly camp managers.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
