What's new: A group pavilion is a wonderful addition to this lesser-known park near Antimony. (Where's Antimony? you might ask. North of Bryce Canyon.)

Most popular feature: The reservoir, which according to Deena Loyola, public information officer for Utah State Parks, has great fishing. It also gives you access to three ATV trails, including Big Paiute. "It's a nice base camp location, a quiet little campground."

Best time to go: Now, before it gets too hot.

Insider advice: Make your camping reservations in advance (online or by calling 800-322-3770).
