Great Salt Lake Campground — Hotel in Magna

Worst experience. Do not go! I called the camp ground multiple times during the day to make a reservation, to no response. I end travelling to the campsite to try and find the individual running the place (recommended by Reservations Utah). No one there. More phone calls later and no responses. We arrive again, later that evening to the campsite to find it closed. We had the displeasure of meeting with the manager of the park, with zero empathy and he turned us away. He told us we should have called however we did, multiple times during different times of the day. The campsite was empty, there was room for us but his laziness meant that we had to find a new place to camp for the night at 6:30. After many attempts to contact the park and Park Reservations Utah, as well physically going to the site (twice) we were turned away. Don’t bother...

No toilets except port a potties, no water at the sites. But they have water to rinse off kayaks. You think they would lower the price during the lack of water, nope not a cent. Charge full price to sit in a parking lot. you better bring a lot of water with...

It's $35 a night for a parking lot RV camping site. It's more reasonable than $180 a night for a room at the Holiday Inn in Tooele. This parking lot will suffice for a 34-hour reset. Eight RV spots, but only 5 available. Appears 3 spots are full time "guests". One is the camp host. It has water available and an rv dump, bathrooms are clean and there is a small marina here. No laundry room. Outside showers for swimmers. Inside showers are code box only, and that means paid. Not hating on that at all. Not a beach tho, more like a wide spot to see the lake and stretch your legs. Think of it as a rest area that...
