Diamond Campground, Diamond Fork Rd, Utah
Fall weekends in late September are the sweet spot: aspens peak, crowds thin after Labor Day, and the canyon stays in the mid-60s. Loop A has the shade and screening that other loops lack, and sites like #55 deliver the privacy the rest of the campground can't promise. Creek wadi
No hookups and no cell signal rules this out for RV campers expecting connectivity. A17 is cramped and shadeless, so site selection matters more than usual. A few reviewers have also felt unwelcome from staff or fellow campers, so if that's a concern, it's worth factoring in befo

<p>This campground is an open-setting, with access to trailheads, waterfalls, and canyons. River fishing and hiking are a couple of the recreation activities that are popular in this area.</p>
The elevation is 5,200 ft. The campground, comprised of two sections, A and B, stretches out along the Diamond Fork Creek in sagebrush and cottonwood trees. Each section has an upper and lower loop. Section A's upper loop has a dense middlestory of River willows while the lower loop has unshaded open camp sites. Section B has the only walk-in tent sites and some ramadas in the upper loop. Although there are no grilles, each camp site in the campground has a fire ring and metal pedestal for a cook stove. Privacy between camp sites is poor to fair, but the walk-in tent sites provide good privacy from RVrs. Firewood is available for a fee. Note: Entrance gate secured from 10PM to 7AM.
Open April 19 through September 7.
The parking aprons are paved.
On I-15, take Exit 260 (US Rt. 6) for Spanish Fork, UT. On Rt. 6, go east 4.6 miles to where it merges with US Rt. 89 and 50. Continue straight on US Rts. 6/89/50 for 6.2 miles to a "camping" sign. Turn left at the sign and go 5.3 miles to a campground sign. Turn right at sign into campground.

Fall delivers the best conditions. September and early October bring daytime highs in the mid-50s to mid-60s°F with nights dropping into the 30s and 40s. The aspens and cottonwoods peak during this window, trails empty out after Labor Day, and the weather stays more stable than summer. The campground closes October 11, so late September is your safest bet for full fall color. Summer reaches the mid-80s°F, comfortable for afternoon creek time and evening fires. Spring brings wildflowers and crisp mornings. Winter turns the canyon into a snow-covered landscape with freezing temperatures, open only to those prepared for serious cold.
Fall is best: aspens & cottonwoods peak; pleasant daytime temps and crisp nights.
