Huntington State Park is a desert oasis surrounded by chiseled peaks, towering buttes, and sandstone cliffs. A warm-water reservoir anchors the park and lures droves of sunseekers during the hot summer months. Relax on the beach, launch a kayak, or cast a line for bluegill. The park was founded in 1966 and named after the Huntington brothers, a trio of 19th-century explorers who helped develop Emery County and keep the peace between settlers and natives. Today, the park is a treasured outdoor recreation destination for locals and visitors alike. The scenery is fantastic, with the park hemmed in by the rugged mountains of the Wasatch Plateau and the sunbaked San Rafael Swell desert.

Planning a road trip to the Beehive State? Book an RV in Emery County and you'll enjoy the freedom and flexibility of a home on wheels. Venture further afield and you can discover iconic national parks, including Arches, Canyonlands, and Capitol Reef. At just over two hours from the Utah capital, Huntington State Park is a favorite with urbanites looking to camp in an RV near Salt Lake City. A five-hour drive down the I-15, Las Vegas is another popular hub to rent a camper near Huntington State Park and kickoff a Southwest road trip.

Getting Outdoors

Crystalline water and a sandy shoreline ensure the reservoir is the main draw at Huntington State Park. Spend the day basking on the beach or make a splash with watersports. Kayaks and paddleboards are available to rent from the park office and are a great way to enjoy the lake and soak up the sunshine. Alternatively, hit the lake on a motorized boat or water skis.

Huntington State Park is a seventh heaven for anglers, with opportunities to cast a line from the shore or launch a boat and try your luck in deeper water. Cross your fingers for bluegill, rainbow trout, catfish, largemouth bass, and Utah chub. Huntington State Park is also a goldmine for crawdads. After a day behind the reel, there's nothing better than a fish fry back at your campsite.

Starting from the south edge of the campground, the Outback Nature Trail stretches for just under three miles of gravel and hugs the banks of the reservoir. It's a great opportunity to spot waterfowl and other migratory birds. If you're visiting in winter, explore the adjacent areas on ATV or snowmobile.

Camping at Huntington State Park

Shaded by cottonwood trees and covered by a blanket of grass, the Huntington State Park Campground is a breath of fresh air. Wake up early to watch the sunlight bouncing off the shale stone cliffs and stay up late to admire the star-spangled sky. Most of the park's 25 sites feature electrical and water hookups, while three sites feature full hookups. Covered picnic tables offer respite from the blazing sun and make it easy to enjoy your meals outdoors. You'll also enjoy a private barbecue grill for roasting hot dogs, s'mores and other campfire favorites.

Like most state park RV campgrounds, Huntington offers modern bathroom facilities with flush toilets and hot showers. There's also a sanitation station for RV rentals. Reservations are available from March to October, with sites allocated on a first-come, first-served basis for the rest of the year. The largest sites can accommodate RV rentals of up to 45 feet.

Exploring the Area

RV camping at Huntington State Park sees you perfectly placed for exploring Emery County. At nearby San Rafael Swell, also known as the Little Grand Canyon, you can discover the Jurassic National Monument and Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry. The paleontological site is famous for harboring the highest concentration of Jurassic dinosaur fossils ever discovered. Marvel at dinosaur skeletons in the museum and take in the views from the scenic Rim Trail. While you're in the area, don't miss Goblin Valley State Park, a 10,000-acre enclave dotted with mushroom-shaped sandstone formations.

A two-hour drive away, Arches National Park beckons with thousands of dramatic sandstone rock formations. Nearby Canyonlands National Park is studded with towering buttes, rugged rock pinnacles, and flat-topped mesas carved over millennia by the Colorado River. Capitol Reef is another of Utah's signature national parks, set in the south-central desert and luring nature buffs with golden pillars, soaring arches, and magnificent white sandstone domes.

A five-minute drive from the campground, the small town of Huntington is a great place to stock up on motorhome camping essentials. You'll find a handful of gas stations and grocery stores, as well as cafes, diners, and restaurants. For more choice, head 80 miles southeast to Green River, a former haunt of Butch Cassidy. Adventure companies offer whitewater rafting trips down Desolation and Gray Canyons.
