Please email us at fgkoa@aol.com! The Flaming Gorge KOA Camping Resort is for those that want to escape! We are true believers in family camping and provide a location where friends and family can truly enjoy themselves. We are not a "stop/go" along an Interstate. We want you to make us your destination!</p><p>RV Sites are $33.00 per night for 2 people, Camping Cabins are $44.00 and Tent Sites are $22.00. Please call 435-784-3184 or 800-562-3254 for reservations.

This small, off-the-beaten-path campground shaded by giant cottonwoods offers striking views of Lake Flaming Gorge 6 miles away and of the surrounding mountains and bluffs. KOA's campsites spread out among flower gardens and lush lawns, an oasis in a high desert setting. Anglers hook mackinaw, smallmouth bass, kokanee salmon and trout from the waters of the 91-mile lake. Fly-fish the Green River or take a family-friendly float trip. The Flaming Gorge KOA hosts many fun family activities. Show off your hidden skills in the cow-pie-tossing contest, Western line dancing (with lessons!), pie- and bean-eating contests and karaoke. Please ask us for the activities schedule.
