Nothing here to sleep in

The agency files 50 records here and marks every one of them day use, not overnight. On its own record there’s nothing here to spend the night in.

No availability snapshot inside the last 36 hours, so this page draws nothing rather than ageing a reading into fiction.

Booking window6 months outBooking opens 6 months ahead; today unlocks arrivals through April 16, 2027. The agency publishes no reservable season in the record we hold, so the window may close earlier than that.recreation.gov

We read recreation.gov once an hour, at 40 minutes past, and write the first time a site in your window is free for the nights you asked for.

Scanners that check every few minutes exist, and most of them charge. This one is free, it reads the same calendar, and it won’t always be first.

What you actually pay

The sign priceU.S. Forest Service
The U.S. Forest Service publishes no per-night rate for this campground that we can read, so there’s no sign price to print. That’s a gap in the record, not a free campground.
These are next season’s rates, Apr 24, 2027 to Sep 20, 2027. The campground is between seasons now.
Cash, Check, or Scan & Pay (with recreation.gov app) Boat Launch - $22.00 + $3.00 per vessel (additional recreational fee collected on behalf of Weber county and Huntsville Town for the express use of County.
Fees will be used for improvements to recreational areas) Day Use - $20.00 + $3.00 (additional recreational fee collected on behalf of Weber county and Huntsville Town for the express use of County.
Fees will be used for improvements to recreational areas) Dry Storage - $695 /season, $134 /month, or $59 /week Season day use pass - $197.00 , includes day use and boat launch at Pineview Reservoir and Strawberry Reservoir Senior and Access Interagency passes do not cover boat launching or day-use.
The booking feerecreation.gov
Reservation fee, booked online$8
One fee per reservation, however many nights you book, and it’s non-refundable. $9 if you book by phone, $3 in person.
Pass discounts only apply to the recreation (or use) fee for the facility. Other charges such as electricity or water hookups, reservation or other fees are not eligible for a discount.
What a stay costs
The agency publishes no nightly rate for this campground, so there’s nothing to add the $8 booking fee to. We won’t total a receipt with a number missing from it.
If your plans changerecreation.gov
Change fee, moving to dates outside your booking$10
Cancellation fee$10
Cancelling the day before, or the day of$10 + your first night
No-show$20 + your first night

Who keeps the booking fee

The agency’s own policy text says the reservation fee and the cancellation processing fee are “retained by the reservation service contractor”, and that a campground concessionaire will decline to refund them because “they did not receive these fees”. Recreation.gov is run under contract by Booz Allen Hamilton. What share of your booking fee the contractor keeps isn’t published in any federal dataset we can read, so we print no number for it.

Ask whether this could be a place to sleep

The agency’s own record files sites here and marks every one of them day use. The draft asks whether any could open to overnight camping, and if not, why.

To Blake D. Moore

Asks them to put the same question to the agency in writing.

Subject Port Ramp Marina has sites, and nobody may sleep in them

Dear Blake D. Moore,

I’m a constituent in Utah’s 1st district. Port Ramp Marina, Utah carries 50 records on the U.S. Forest Service’s own file, every one of them marked day use rather than overnight.

I’m asking you to put one question to the U.S. Forest Service in writing: would they consider opening any of these sites to overnight camping, and if not, why not?

Road trips and camping on public land are part of how this country knows itself. It’s where a lot of people meet the place they live in for the first time, and it has never been something you had to be well off, or well organised six months in advance, to do.

How we know

every fact on this page, and where it came from
Right now: U.S. Forest Service publishes no season and no closure for this campground, and it takes no bookings we can read. That’s a gap in the record and not a locked gate: the number below is the only way to be sure.
Cell signal: the Forest Service’s own campground description, read as text by CAMPANAC. None of this is a measurement. It’s what the land manager published about the place, and phones, carriers and weather all disagree with each other; treat it as a warning, not a promise.
