Best Time to Camp at Singletree

Best season: fall. Fall delivers the most dramatic experience at Singletree — golden aspen stands, crisp mountain air, and excellent visibility across Capitol Reef and the Henry Mountains. Daytime highs are typically in the 40–65°F range with nights dipping into the 30s–40s, making hiking, photography, and wildlife viewing especially pleasant. Crowds thin after Labor Day so early fall (September) gives the best combination of full services and quiet campsites; peak color can extend into early October, but note the Peak months: September, October, May, June Avoid: November, December, January, February

About Singletree

Singletree sits high in Fishlake National Forest near Torrey, offering alpine tent and RV camping with flush toilets, potable water, and a dump station. Operated by Singletree Campground Management, the campground draws visitors for its fall aspen displays, access to hiking and biking trails, and proximity to Capitol Reef and the Henry Mountains. A camp host maintains the grounds and assists guests throughout the season.

Singletree Campground caters to a variety of camping preferences with its combination of single-family and group sites. The campground lacks cabins and other glamping-style accommodations. Although it is primarily designed for tent camping and RVs, its paved spurs make it particularly RV-friendly.

Elevation8200 ft above sea level

Natural Features and SceneryThe campground occupies an alpine forest of ponderosa pines and quaking aspens on Boulder Mountain, an elevated plateau rising above the Colorado Plateau's desert landscape. From this 8,200-foot vantage point, campers look out toward Capitol Reef's red rock formations and the Henry Mountains beyond. The forest provides a stark contrast to the sun-baked canyons below. Fall transforms the aspens into gold, and the elevation shift creates a distinct ecosystem where mountain vegetation meets desert views. The Singletree Falls trail is a frequently mentioned draw.

Lodging & AccommodationsThere is no hotel-style lodging or cabins available. The campground focuses exclusively on camping accommodations.

Programs & ActivitiesNo cultural or educational programs are mentioned.
