It’s hard to give the camp ground a good rating when my memories of this place had such plush green grass and beautiful trees but today it’s mostly made up of dirt, weeds, and hot asphalt. Bathrooms are okay, aged fixtures but barely functional enough. Where does all the state park income go?
Always have fun swimming here. I appreciate all the shade & pavilion areas to eat.
We love camping here. Great hookups and amenities. Kids love to rent equipment. We fish and boat but also just enjoy the beach. Hoping the grass gets healthier. Its drought season but the dirt needs a little lawn cover to keep it from turning into a dust bowl when the wind blows. Would be back to five stars with some lawn care.
We've been here twice and really enjoyed it both times. We've stayed in the camping area both times. There is also a day use area. There is a pretty little lake with several types of fish for recreational fishing. There's a walking path/bike path around the lake, as well as a boat ramp. The day use area has several trees and picnic tables. The camping area has water and electricity hookups. No sewer hookups, but there is a dump station.
If you stay here be sure to go to the Wedge Overlook! It's 26 miles away and is nicknamed the Little Grand Canyon of Utah. It's in The Wedge Recreation Area, which is full of dry many, many camping spots and ATV trails. It takes about 45 minutes to get to the overlook because most of the way there is compacted dirt road. It's all worth the drive if you have the time!
We were planning on camping at Millsite but the campground was full. We were pleasantly surprised with Huntington! Way more distance between each camp, and the area was so serene and peaceful. My only complaint is the number of unshielded lights at night which make stargazing near impossible. Most are from outside of the park, but some of the lights inside the park could be better designed to protect the night sky and nature from the lights.
