Yellowpine Campground is located next to Rock Creek in the Rock Creek Drainage on the southern slope of the beautiful Uinta Mountains. Visitors enjoy fishing and exploring the popular Rock Creek Trail.
Rock Creek offers fishing for brown, brook and rainbow trout. Whitewater rafting and kayaking opportunities are available seasonally.
Rock Creek Trail, begins nearby and connects with an accessible, paved interpretive nature trail within Yellowpine.
Outside the campground, the trail provides access to the High Uintas Wilderness, where hiking, backpacking, horseback riding and backcountry fishing are very popular activities.
The campground offers single, double and group sites, all with picnic tables, campfire rings and grills. Accessible flush toilets and drinking water are provided. A dump station is located on-site.
This shaded campground is situated among towering Ponderosa pines at an elevation of 7,200 feet. Aspens and summer wildflowers dot the landscape. Rock Creek flows alongside the campground. Evenings in this area are cool.
Upper Stillwater Reservoir and Lower Stillwater Ponds are nearby, offering swimming, picnicking and fishing for brown and rainbow trout. Upper Stillwater is currently accessible only by hiking in. Numerous hiking trails lead into the High Uinta Wilderness Area from here.
From Highway 40 in Duchesne, Utah, turn north onto Highway 87. Go 15 miles to the Mountain Home turnoff. Continue 2.5 miles toward Mountain Home. Turn left at the Rock Creek Store and proceed about 15 miles to the campground.
I really wish RVs weren't allowed here. Nothing like the hum of a generator to muffle out the sound of nature. Couldn't even hear the babbling brook right next to us. We will definitely be returning, because the area is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Hopefully, no RVs there this time.
Very good, peaceful place. Has Few small and medium rivers. Nice campground area with fireplace. Only one exception-the restroom ,which Was quite dirty .
I can only speak of my personal experience. Yes, this is a basic FCFS campground. And it was clean, and well kept. We stayed in site #13, as we had a 33ft. 5th wheel and needed the space. And is the best site in our opinion. [Not too many sites accomodate larger trailers. Lots of room for smaller trailers and tent camping.]
Site #13 is at the top of the campground, shade and sun, close to stream [can hear it from site], very large site, private. We stayed 8 nights.
Campground host Amy was extremely friendly and helpful. She andswered our many questions about the campground, where we could find water and a dump for our trailer and places to go visit on the Mirror Scenice Byway. We had a great time at Yellow Pine and in the area. Would reccomend campground, providing you only need restroom and trash services. Town was conveniently located about 7 miles from campground.
Undeveloped campsite but close to Kamas, clean and easily accessed.
Picnic Tables and Great Fire pits in each of the spacious, beautiful spots.
Quiet creek nearby
