Lucky find as we drove across the country. The first couple of first come first serve campgrounds we tried to stop at were already full so we were a bit worried we’d end up sleeping at a rest area. Then Weber Crossing popped up on Google Maps. This place was right off the road, which makes it super convenient but also loud from road noise and train noise from the nearby tracks. That was the most significant knock against it. Other than that, it was a solid place to crash for the night. We also saw a bald eagle hanging out in a large tree by the river!
If you’re planning on staying several days, keep in mind the trees are very young and small and won’t provide shade or any privacy between campsites. There’s two flush toilets, and the bathrooms also have showers. I also didn’t notice a large trash receptacle for guests to use, so we just kept our trash in a grocery bag and packed it out.
It's great place to stop and stay the night, would not want to spend any more time there than an overnight. $25 is a little expensive considering there's nothing to do there.
Easy access off I-84 in Henefer, Utah, the Weber Crossing refers to a pioneer trail named the Hastings Cutoff. This route supposedly was a shortcut, but there was no trail.
The first wagon train to use this was the Donner Party. Based on the surviving young girl's diary, the Hastings Cutoff took a lot of effort to break a trail for the wagon train. A paved road essentially follows the path blazed by the Donner Party in 1846.
The big wagon trains of the Mormons took this trail in 1847, providing additional road-building service on their emigration from Nauvoo, Illinois, to their founding of Salt Lake City, Utah.
Our camp at Weber Crossing for 100+ campers was clean and neat with well maintained grass lawns. Although the nearby Interstate and adjacent freight railroad provided some background noise, the babbling Weber River seemed to quiet things down.
The camp has other amenities we did not use, but the big pavilion was perfect for our cook crew, with plenty of picnic tables.
If you're in the mood for some tubing or rafting in the Weber, contact Weber Crossing and get the details.
Stayed during my recent bicycle tour. Nice quiet camping. No picnic tables or electric at spots. The care taker was very nice and interested my trip. Luckily I had a camp chair of my own to sit in. Easy to get to.
It was Private there was no one Hardly at the campground just one bathroom with a small shower no hookups. Close to a stream. Picnic tables are under a overhood saver or whatever.
