Camping at Dripping Springs Campground (Ut) near Manila

Public campground · Manila · 22 campsites · 4 group

A forested campground near trout fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Perched at about 6,000 feet in the rolling high-desert around Flaming Gorge Reservoir, Dripping Springs Campground looks out over sage-covered hills punctuated by Russian olive and cottonwood, with nearly every site offering reservoir and mountain views. Its main draw is proximity to the Green River and the Little Hole area: Little Hole Boat Launch and Day-Use Area are a short drive away and are prime spots for rainbow, brown and cutthroat trout fishing and for putting a raft or kayak into the river.

How far ahead to book Dripping Springs Campground (Ut)

For July weekends, book about 65 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 16 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (3,429 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
