Campsite: Cottonwood Campground — Bear Lake State Park

This is part of a Utah State park so you can only enter and exit via a reservation. A park ranger upon arrival will ask for your name and issue a parking pass (upto 2 cars, a $20 fee). The parking slot issued is an oversize one that accommodates 2 vehicles (we had 2 mini-vans in the slot). The bathrooms and showers are very nice, look to be very well kept and close to all the camping lots. The water level was very low so even having a lot right next to the water we were still 100 yards away from the shoreline. Each lot has a metal picnic table, fire pit, and space for two 12x12 tents (according to the website, our lot however we found it difficult to setup a 10x14 tent with the level ground available). The campground is setup so most of the lots are fairly spread-out but you will be fairly close to one other lot (the fire-pits were probably 15 feet to each-other). My biggest complaint was the ground between the camping lots and the parking lot was very rough. Lots of potholes from rock chucks and no paths to any campsite from the parking lot or bathroom so you are walking through brush to each site. If you get a lot next to the water the sunset is amazing to take in at night, some lots the view is covered by trees so you can’t get a direct view of the lake from your campsite. We stayed in lot #20 that had an unobstructed view of the lake.
