Full Hookup Camping Near Spanish Fork Ut
Full Service RV Park. Lakeside RV Campground is a full service, year round park. Our campground is the perfect balance of “close-enough-to-activity” and “peaceful, quiet enjoyment.”. Canyon View, a Spanish Fork, UT city campground, in a sense, is not an RV Park. Basically, it is a long parking lot with maybe 15-20 hookups (w/e) and dump station. The sites (back in) are on one side, car (tows) are parked on the other.
Ponderosa Campground is nestled in scenic Bear Canyon just off the Nebo Loop Scenic Byway at an elevation of 6,200 feet. Nephi, Utah, is just 10 miles away. Visitors enjoy hiking and fishing in this quiet canyon.
The campground contains several single-family sites with picnic tables and campfire rings. Some sites have grills. Vault toilets and drinking water are provided. Roads and parking spurs are paved.

Natural Features
The campground is named for the towering grove of Ponderosa pines in which it lies. The beautiful trees were planted in 1914 and the campground was built in 1933.
