Gooseberry Campground

What sets Gooseberry Reservoir Campground apart is its tranquil setting in a high-altitude sagebrush meadow at 8,400 feet, offering stunning lake views and direct access to outdoor adventures such as fishing, canoeing, and the Great Western Trail. This Fairview, Utah campground combines a remote, peaceful atmosphere with the practical amenities of vault toilets and spacious sites accommodating larger RVs, though shade is notably absent.

The campground is perched near Gooseberry Reservoir, a hotspot for cutthroat and rainbow trout fishing and non-motorized canoeing, ensuring a serene aquatic experience. Grassy meadows burst with summer wildflowers, while the surrounding ridges are dotted with aspens and fir trees. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby Great Western Trail, perfect for hiking, biking, and off-road vehicle use, and history buffs can explore Mammoth Guard Station just a mile away.

Located 13.5 miles east of Fairview, this campground is a convenient base for exploring Manti-La Sal National Forest's rugged natural beauty. The pack-it-in, pack-it-out policy highlights its minimal impact philosophy, making it an excellent choice for campers seeking solitude and a close connection to nature.
