Willow Lake Campground

Willow Lake Campground is located on the east shore of scenic Willow Lake, at an elevation of 9,640 feet. The small lake sits in an alpine basin high on the Wasatch Plateau. Spruce, fir and aspen trees dot the open landscape, providing partial shade in the campground. Wildlife and summer wildflowers are plentiful, and autumn leaves put on quite a show in the surrounding area. This campground contains 10 single-family sites with picnic table and campfire rings. Most sites have lake views, though none have direct lake access. A footpath leads to the shore from the campground. Vault toilets are provided, but there is no water or garbage service. Roads and parking spurs are gravel. Visitors enjoy fishing, canoeing, wildlife viewing, and mountain biking and hiking to explore many of the surrounding trails. In winter, the area becomes a playground for snowmobile enthusiasts. Nearby attractions include Ferron Reservoir, which is a short drive to the west, and Skyline Drive, which runs along the top of the Wasatch Plateau for 60+ miles. The campground is also a staging area for the expansive Arapeen OHV Trail System , with 350+ miles of designated, maintained trails suitable for all riding skill levels.
