From Loa, UT, take State Rt. 24 west 12.7 miles to Fish Lake and State Rt. 25 signs. Turn right at signs onto Rt. 25 and go 8.9 miles to campground sign. Turn left at sign into first section of campground or go another 0.2 miles and turn left into a second large section of the campground.
Our first time at Big Mackinaw camp ground was spectacular. Karen was our camp host and we absolutely think she's the best! The whole camp was clean, and run professionally. She was very helpful with any questions and informative about the beautiful location and activities. She was delightful and very comfortable to talk to. Constantly saw her busy, she's not afraid to jump in and get done whatever needed done. Highly recommend Big Mackinaw camp ground b
Karen is the best camp host we have ever had. She solves problems with a friendly smile. No matter how many times we knocked on her door she helped us and seemed glad to see us. She helped fix our complicated reservation mess and treated us right while upholding policies. We hope she stays there a long time. What a pleasant stay.
Great campground! I highly recommend.
$20 a night for a regular camp with bathrooms, tables and showers.
It is just a walk across the street to Fish Lake.
Within 1/2 mile to the restaurant (that is actually open) and the lodge (opposite direction) that has ice cream, some groceries, fishing/camping supplies, etc.
The camp hosts are really nice and help you check in, can supply you with firewood at $7 a way better deal than wood you buy in town before getting there. (1 bundle is plenty for a night, they are large bundles. )
I went and enjoyed the clear skies for the perseid meteor shower happening at the time.
We just spent two days at Mackinaw campground at fish lake, and fish lake national Park. It was absolutely beautiful and peaceful, there were no real critters to bother you and very minimal bugs. The leaves are just starting to change, in a week or two it will be incredibly beautiful, though I think the campground shut down September 15th. We stayed in the southernmost campground sites one through 14 of Mackinaw. The bathrooms are wonderful, and they even have paid showers, that are heated up and very clean, it's $0.50 a minute.
We have stayed at Big Mackinaw Campground for several years. The past 2 years our camp host , Karen, has been friendly and helpful. She works hard to keep the area and restrooms clean. We appreciate all she does in making our stay a great experience!!
