Creature comforts

Enjoy the comforts of home at some sites—including flush toilets, showers, and a kitchen.

This Outpost and campground is located on 300 acres of private property surrounded by park and public land. It has been here for over 30 years in some form or another. We are Caleb & Amber who enjoyed managing this little oasis in the middle of the desert from March to June of 2017 when we decided to purchase the business & make it our own. This is a dry, rugged campground with a bathhouse that provides coin operated showers and flush toilets. In addition there is little old rustic camp store placed in the middle of nowhere where we provide fuel, snacks, firewood, ice, showers, cold drinks & more. If you are looking for a more private site with lots of space and shade, book our Small Group at the Rocks. For a warmer stay during the cooler months book one of our Glamping Tents listed. We have the larger, and spacious tent in the grove of the Juniper Trees (which is also amazing in the warmer season) and rent a heater from us inside the general/camp store. BE SURE TO GIVE YOURSELF PLENTY OF TIME TO CHECK IN NO LATER THAN 5PM. THANK YOU!! DON'T FORGET TO TAKE A SCREEN SHOT OF THE DIRECTIONS HERE, YOU WILL LOSE SERVICE ON YOUR WAY.

Site #9

We absolutely loved camping at the needles outpost! It was super close to Canyonlands so we spent a good amount of time there. We were surrounded by majestic canyons and beautiful stars at night. The closest town is Moab and it was an hour and 20ish minutes away… so if you want to go into town prepare to have a full tank of gas! We loved stopping along the way to see the petroglyphs, dip our toes in the lake, and pull off the side of the road to take pictures. The campsites are a bit close to one another, so prepare to be close to your neighbors! Overall, we really enjoyed the beautiful campsite.

The most beautiful place we have ever camped. There isn’t an adjective that I can think of that would do it justice. Highly recommend!

Great for the canyonlands

The rules are pretty strict but it’s a beautiful place with many resources on site like firewood ice and food. The people are all very nice. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend if you are visiting the canyonlands
