About this campground
Tucked away in the heart of Logan Canyon, Lodge Campground offers an authentic wilderness retreat where the Logan River's gentle melody guides you to your secluded campsite. This rustic haven, embraced by towering trees and lush vegetation, creates intimate camping spaces where privacy comes naturally. Here, the forest doesn't just surround you—it welcomes you into its peaceful embrace, offering a true escape from the everyday world.
Lodge Campground features primitive camping options with basic facilities. It is suitable for tent camping and small RVs. The natural setting makes it ideal for those seeking a rustic and private outdoor experience.
Weather and SeasonsSummer arrives with warm, sun-dappled days perfect for riverside relaxation, while autumn transforms the canyon into a painter's palette of gold and crimson. The magic of September gives way to October's spectacular show, when the forest erupts in color and the crowds thin out, leaving you with the canyon's secrets all to yourself. These cooler autumn days bring crisp mornings, cozy campfire evenings, and the kind of quiet that makes every rustling leaf feel like nature's whisper.
ElevationPerched at 5,600 feet where the mountain air runs pure and cool, Lodge Campground offers a refreshing escape from valley heat. This elevation creates the perfect climate for comfortable camping—warm enough for evening stargazing, cool enough for restful sleep, and high enough to surround you with the kind of mountain scenery that takes your breath away in the best possible way.
Natural Features and SceneryA cathedral of trees creates a living canopy overhead, filtering sunlight into dancing patterns on the forest floor. The Logan River serves as both soundtrack and centerpiece, its crystal-clear waters weaving through the campground like nature's own welcome mat. Dense understory growth and flourishing middlestory vegetation craft natural privacy screens between sites, while the creek's tranquil babbling provides the perfect white noise for peaceful nights under the stars.
Geological RegionLodge Campground sits within the magnificent Logan Canyon, a jewel in the crown of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. This mountainous wonderland showcases nature's architectural prowess through dramatic canyon walls, ancient forests, and the ever-present Logan River that has carved this landscape over millennia. The surrounding peaks and valleys tell the geological story of the region, creating a backdrop that transforms every camping trip into an adventure in one of Utah's most stunning natural theaters.
