Pine Forest RV Park - Dutch John, Utah (June 2018)

This campground was a welcomed relief after a couple days of dry camping in 90+ degrees heat. The first thing we did after arriving was connect the power so that we could switch on Rosie’s (our 25 foot Airstream trailer) air conditioner. It felt great to feel the temperature inside Rosie return to “comfortable.”

Checking in at Pine Forest RV Park


A young deer came up to our truck when we check in to this campground. That deer would follow us around several times during our visit to Pine Forest RV Park.

Backing into our campsite was more of a challenge than it should have been. Our site was perpendicular to the road and had trees lining both sides of the site. This presented a challenge to getting in our site.

The park featured a large grassy area in its middle. This helped the park to feel very spacious for the campers parked on the inside rows. The campers parked along the outside row were able to watch the cows graze near the fence.

Area behind Rosie's site


Here are some specifics about this campground:
  • Our site had 20, 30 and 50 amp electrical service 
  • Our site had both water and sewer connections 
  • Our site was gravel and level 
  • AT&T placed a weak signal over our site 
  • The park provided WiFi but it was very slow and difficult to use
  • We were able to pick up one TV station using Rosie’s antenna. We were able to watch FOX and digital channels Antenna and Stadium 
  • The park had very clean and well maintained restrooms and showers
  • The park had a laundry room that was well used by the guests 
The park's staff was very responsive to our requests. There were a couple of things we needed help with and the staff quickly came to our aid.

  1. I've often tried to understand why campground designers would layout sites that were 90* to the road - perhaps they are Walmart parking lot designers as well. Great shots of the gorge.
