Intake Campground

Nestled in the heart of South Willow Canyon, Intake Campground offers a peaceful retreat into the rugged beauty of Utah's Stansbury Range. At an elevation of 6,293 feet, this federal campground provides a stunning mountain backdrop for outdoor enthusiasts. The site is uniquely positioned for those who want immediate access to nature, as the multi-use Stansbury Front and Medina Flat trails start right across from the entrance, leading directly into the breathtaking Deseret Peak Wilderness.

Outdoor lovers will find plenty to do, from casting a line for rainbow and brown trout in the nearby Willow Creek to exploring the surrounding alpine terrain. The facility is modest, featuring four single sites equipped with vault restrooms and access to water. While it remains open year-round, its rustic nature makes it an ideal destination for tent campers and those looking for a quiet, back-to-basics experience away from crowded tourist hubs.

Because this is a primitive site without hookups, it is best suited for self-sufficient campers who enjoy a moderate level of adventure. Whether you are planning a weekend of mountain hiking or a quiet fishing trip, Intake Campground serves as an affordable and scenic base camp for exploring the wild side of the Southwest.
