About
Willows Campground is located adjacent to the South Fork of the Ogden River. At an elevation of 5,300 feet this beautiful little campground is situated among cottonwood and willows. This campground has gravel spurs and roads, cement table pads, fire rings. The campground has 14 single sites and 3 double sites. This campground offers vault restroom facilities. The campground, as the name implies, is a single loop through a stand of willow trees next to the South Fork of the Ogden River. Some sites are adjacent to the river and a heavy middlestory provides privacy between camping sites. Popular local recreation activities include fishing, hiking, swimming, and tubing down the South Fork Ogden River (a life jacket is required for all tubers). Causey Reservoir, a scenic mountain lake, is two miles east.
