Intake Campground

Does the idea of camping beneath towering junipers and maples, with the sound of Willow Creek flowing nearby, appeal to you? Intake Campground, located in South Willow Canyon within the Stansbury Range near Grantsville, Utah, provides a serene and remote escape at an elevation of 6,320 feet. With only five single sites, this campground offers a truly intimate experience surrounded by forested terrain and rugged beauty.

This primitive campground features vault toilets but lacks potable water, so visitors must come prepared with their own supplies. Nearby, outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy access to the Deseret Peak Wilderness via the Stansbury Front and Medina Flat trails located just across the road, with opportunities for hiking, wildlife viewing, and exploring alpine landscapes. Willow Creek, meandering through the campground, is ideal for those seeking quiet moments or fishing for rainbow and brown trout.

Situated just outside Grantsville, Intake Campground is approximately 30 minutes from notable attractions such as the Bonneville Salt Flats and the Great Salt Lake, making it an ideal stop for a weekend or a longer retreat into nature. Its tranquil setting, combined with convenient access to trails and regional highlights, makes it a favored destination for adventurers looking for solitude and scenic splendor.
