Willow Creek Campground is one of three campgrounds located within Willard Bay State Park. Willard Bay is located right off Interstate 15, slightly north of Ogden, Utah. Fishing, boating and swimming are all extremely popular activities here. There are two marina areas (north and south) within the state park with the northern area offering more amenities.

Willard Bay Reservoir is a 9,900 acre body of freshwater that rests atop the Great Salt Lake flood plain. It is separated from the Great Salt Lake by an earth filled dike that was constructed to store water from the Ogden and Weber rivers so that it could be used for irrigation, drinking water, and recreation. The area opened to the public as a state park in 1966.

If you are looking for the nicest campsites at Willard Bay State Park look no further than Willow Creek Campground. Many of the sites here have a lovely view of the reservoir. The only drawback to this campground is that there are no hookups available.

Willow Creek offers 40 individual campsites. 4 of these are tent only sites. The remaining campsites are suitable for tents, trailers or RVs. At each campsite you’ll find a picnic table and fire pit. Some sites also have BBQ grills. There are restrooms and showers within the campground, as well as an RV dump station.

If you are looking for a campground with full hookups be sure to check out next-door Cottonwood campground. Alternatively you can also look at the South Marina Campground.
