Sandy Beach at Yuba Lake

20 RV Sites, 6 Cabins, 1 Glamping Site, 3 Airstreams, 1 Tiny House

Sandy Beach at Yuba Lake in Levan, Utah, offers 20 beachfront RV parking sites, seven cabin and tiny-house units, and four Airstream and glamping accommodations on Yuba Reservoir, behind a gated entrance. Boat docks, kayak rentals, and a sandy beach anchor a lake resort in Juab County's central Utah high desert. Accommodations divide clearly. Twenty beach parking sites serve self-contained RVs — note these are beachfront parking rather than full-hookup sites, so arrive prepared with water and power. Seven cabins and tiny houses and four Airstream and glamping units provide furnished lodging for guests without a rig. Restrooms and showers are on site, and a gated entrance controls access. The reservoir is the whole point. Yuba's 22,000 acres on the Sevier River support boating, fishing, paddle boarding, canoeing, and kayaking, with boat docks and kayak rentals on site and a sandy beach for swimming. A recreation center, picnicking areas, hiking, and biking fill the rest, with OHV terrain nearby and a state park close by. Juab County's minimal light pollution makes the stargazing genuinely exceptional — one of the least-visited lake destinations in Utah's reservoir system, and it shows at night. Pets are welcome. Directions: take exit 202 off I-15, head east on Old Yuba Dam Road about two miles, turn left on Old Botham Road at the "Welcome to Yuba Lake Recreation Area" sign, continue about a mile, and the cedar post fence entrance is on your right. Summer boating season drives demand from the Salt Lake City and Provo corridors. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Mesa Campground

Three miles west of Gunnison on US Highway 50, Mesa Campground sits at the gateway to one of Colorado's most compelling outdoor corridors, with the Gunnison River within walking distance and Blue Mesa Reservoir—Colorado's largest body of water—just minutes down the road. The campground offers full hookup sites for rigs of all sizes, cabin rentals, and proximity to both Curecanti National Recreation Area and the broader Gunnison Valley that makes this part of Colorado a legitimate four-season destination. The combination of river access, a national recreation area next door, and proximity to Crested Butte and Black Canyon makes Gunnison a natural hub for serious outdoor travelers. The campground's sites range from open and shaded options with 30 and 50-amp service to luxury pull-through configurations suited to the largest motorhomes. Free shared WiFi covers the property, and pet-friendly restrooms and showers reflect a campground culture that treats traveling pets as genuine guests. A well-maintained laundromat, communal fire pits, a small playground, and an on-site clubhouse, recreation center, and general store keep the operation self-sufficient for guests who prefer to limit trips to town. Propane service and boat storage accommodate guests who arrive between outings on Blue Mesa or the river. Cabins are available for those seeking a more contained stay. The Gunnison River is the natural focal point of the campground's immediate setting, and walking access to its banks provides easy trout fishing—the river holds brown and rainbow trout in quality numbers through the season—and the particular calm of a high-country river corridor available at whatever time of day fits your schedule. Blue Mesa Reservoir, three miles from the campground, is Colorado's largest body of water and one of the best Kokanee salmon fisheries in the West. Curecanti National Recreation Area surrounds the reservoir system and offers boating, paddling, and scenic canyon geology. Crested Butte, one of Colorado's most beloved mountain towns and a world-class ski and mountain biking destination, is 28 miles north of Gunnison on Highway 135. Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park—a dramatically narrow canyon carved by the river itself—is accessible to the west for a day trip that ranks consistently among the most visually striking geological experiences in the Rocky Mountain region. The Gunnison area also anchors an off-road vehicle network extending into the surrounding mountains, and mountain biking trails out of Gunnison and Crested Butte are among Colorado's best. Mesa Campground operates year-round and provides a genuinely useful base for campers who want to explore the Gunnison Valley's remarkable concentration of outdoor opportunity. Summer is the peak season for water recreation on Blue Mesa and trails at Crested Butte, while fall brings extraordinary aspen color across the valley. Winter brings ski access at Crested Butte for guests willing to make the short drive over Kebler Pass. Book your site early for summer weekends and fall aspen season, and use the Gunnison Valley as the base camp it deserves to be.
