| A peaceful and quiet campground only minutes from town | |
Antelope Island State Park seems to be one of those places that polarize people when they visit: They either love it and can't wait to go back, or they didn't like it and wouldn't care to return. I'm happy to be among the former.
The park's close proximity to the Wasatch Front means that I can take off on a thursday evening after work, arrive early enough to get set up, and then spend Friday morning working out of my RV while the kids play. Since the park is on the western side of the island, it is remarkably quiet and peaceful, absent of any city lights. In fact, it reminds me of camping along an ocean beach, and sunsets are often spectacular.
The naysayers don't like the bugs (just bring repellant), and sparse vegetation. You'll often see bison, pronghorn, coyotes, birds, etc. roaming around the campground. The campsites are very nice, with covered picnic tables, BBQ grills, and long pull-throughs.
We stayed here in a Travel Trailer. | | |  Comments (0) |
