Nestled in the heart of Utah’s high country, the promise of a perfect weekend awaits—a blend of serene natural beauty and the simple comforts of home. For those seeking the iconic Fishlake experience, the key to an unforgettable trip lies not just in the destination but in the perfect home base. Here’s how to maximize your time, with Flying U Country Store & RV Park as your essential hub.
Your Hub for Adventure: Why Location Matters
Fishlake National Forest is a treasure trove of alpine lakes, aspen groves, and legendary fishing. However, its remote beauty means planning is crucial. Staying at the Flying U places you strategically close to the adventure while eliminating the hassles of a purely rustic trip. We provide the launchpad for your exploration and the sanctuary for your rest.
The Itinerary: A Hassle-Free Weekend Getaway
Day 1: Arrival & Settling In
- Afternoon: Roll into Flying U Country Store & RV Park. Check-in is straightforward and friendly. Choose your perfect spot: a full-hookup RV site for complete self-sufficiency, or one of our cozy cabins if you’re traveling light.
- Evening: Before you even think of setting up camp, step into our Country Store. This is your moment to grab essentials and forget the stress of over-packing. Stock up on firewood, fishing licenses, snacks, drinks, and any last-minute gear. With your supplies secured, settle in. Let the kids or pets explore our open spaces while you light a fire. The weekend’s pace is already slowing down.
Day 2: The Heart of the Adventure – Exploring Fishlake
- Morning: Wake up without an alarm, just the smell of fresh pine and coffee brewed at your site. The drive to Fishlake itself is part of the experience—a short, scenic journey ending at the stunning, spring-fed waters.
- The Day’s Pursuit: Choose your own adventure.
- For the Angler: Fishlake is renowned for its trophy lake trout and abundant rainbow trout. Spend the day on the water, from shore or boat, chasing the famed “Mackinaw.”
- For the Hiker: The Fishlake area boasts trails for all levels. Wander through the ancient stands of the Pando Aspen Clone, or find a path along the lakeshore for breathtaking views.
- For the Explorer: Rent a side-by-side or bring your own to traverse the intricate network of forest trails, discovering vistas and meadows.
- Evening: This is where the Flying U advantage truly shines. Instead of cooking over a camp stove after a long day, return to the comfort of your hub. Our on-site Grill offers hearty, satisfying meals—a juicy burger, a hot sandwich, or a comforting plate of fries. Share stories of the one that got away or the incredible view you found, then relax under a blanket of stars at your site, with everything you need already at hand.
Day 3: Refuel & Relaxed Departure
- Morning: There’s no rush. Enjoy a leisurely morning. Let the kids play a while longer. Visit the Country Store one more time for a hot coffee, a delicious breakfast item, and ice for your cooler. Refuel your vehicle at our convenient station, ensuring you’re ready for the road ahead.
- Departure: Check out is easy. You leave not exhausted from “roughing it,” but rejuvenated. Your Fishlake adventure was the focus, not the logistics. Your memories are of the lake’s shimmer and the trail’s quiet, not of forgotten supplies or complicated meals.
