Jarvies Family Boat IN

Jarvies Family Boat-In Campground offers a truly unique outdoor experience for those looking to escape the crowds. Nestled within the scenic Jarvies Canyon along the Flaming Gorge Reservoir at an elevation of 6,032 feet, this federal campground is accessible only by boat. The journey across the water provides breathtaking views of the surrounding terrain, setting the stage for a peaceful getaway in one of Utah's most beautiful aquatic landscapes.

Once you arrive, you will find a rugged, natural setting equipped with essential amenities, including vault toilets and fire rings. The site is a haven for water enthusiasts, featuring direct access to the reservoir for boating, swimming, and fishing right from your campsite. For those who prefer to keep their feet on dry land, a hiking trail runs directly through the area, offering a great way to explore the canyon’s unique topography.

This location is best suited for adventurous tent campers and those comfortable with a primitive, off-the-grid experience. Because the site is only reachable via water, visitors should be prepared to transport all necessary supplies by boat. It is an ideal spot for families or small groups seeking a quiet, immersive wilderness experience away from the noise of traditional drive-in campgrounds.
