About Rainbow Cove Campground
With its prime location along Bear Lake’s shimmering blue waters and spacious, primitive campsites, Rainbow Cove Campground offers a tranquil escape for those seeking a rustic lakeside experience. The campground features 21 individual sites, each equipped with a picnic table, fire ring, and easy access to the lake, making it ideal for fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding. The expansive views of the lake and surrounding mountains provide a serene backdrop, while the lack of modern amenities ensures a peaceful, back-to-nature vibe.
Situated approximately 10 miles north of Laketown, Utah, Rainbow Cove is part of Bear Lake State Park’s Eastside area, known for its clear waters and recreational opportunities. The campground is accessible via Cisco Road, with Bear Lake’s iconic turquoise waters just steps from your tent or RV. Within a 30-minute drive, campers can explore the Bear Lake National Wildlife Refuge, offering exceptional birdwatching and wildlife viewing.
Rainbow Cove is particularly suited for travelers looking for a quiet, no-frills camping experience close to one of Utah’s most picturesque natural landmarks. Its year-round accessibility and proximity to outdoor activities make it a versatile destination for day trips, weekend getaways, or extended stays.
