Sean was super cool! We originally had a tent site but the wind was high and a storm was brewing so I asked for an upgrade. Sean put us in a safari tent with no up charge and it made the trip that much more special with the air conditioning, lights, and an extraordinarily comfortable bed. Kitchen with all the supplies was great for cooking a nice meal. The views for the 4th of July fireworks were unmatched. Moab is a favorite choice from now on and HTR was a great first choice place to stay.

Loved this campsite. The host changed our site upon arrival to a shady spot. The bathroom and showers were a little dated, but clean and there were 2 of each for men and women.

The bathhouse here was very clean and one of the nicest I’ve experienced. The staff were accommodating. Biggest drawback to the tent site is that there is very little shade.
Under 10 minutes to Moab and under 20 to Arches NP

Once again, we returned to La Sal to stay at this camp. It exceeds our expectations every time with the cleanliness, privacy, and hospitality from our host. I would I recommend the campsite to everyone who wants to enjoy STUNNING sunsets and sunrises and privacy. Withing reasonable distance to Arches, Moab, Hole in the rock, and canyon lands. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Great, cozy campsite within the city of Moab, but not noisy with city noise. The staff was friendly and helpful and interacted with us. The amenities were good and what we expected. Convenient to get to the national parks, and nice to have city spots open when we returned at night. We enjoyed our stay here!

I really enjoyed my stay at Site 3. The mountain views were beautiful, and the night skies were incredible—perfect for stargazing. The site felt peaceful, private, and very safe, with plenty of space between campsites. Everything was extremely clean and clearly well cared for.
Stephen was great with communication—he made it easy to find the site and provided all the info I needed before arriving. The picnic table with a shade cover and the fire pit made the setup super comfortable. It’s also very convenient to Moab if you want to head into town for dinner after a full day exploring the nearby national parks.
It was also really convenient to have strong Wi-Fi, easy water access, and a garbage can right at the site—little things that make a big difference when you’re camping. This Hipcamp is definitely a gem, and I’ll be back again later in the season!

Great affordable location for Canyonlands and Arches. Level easy to set up. Everything worked as planned. It is a newer campground and they are adding a bigger newer dog park, which would be excellent.

It was very convenient for a night. You are literally in a parking lot, parking space to parking space next to people but there are only 6 slots for car camping / van life. The rest is a parking lot for the hotel. You have direct access to a pool, bathrooms, showers, and the lobby area that has food and drinks. All common areas were super clean and clean towels were provided (as many as you want). This spot was only 10 minutes to the entrance of arches national park and a mile or so walk to restaurant’s, bars etc. if you are just staying over for a night or so, I’d definitely recommend.

Wow—what an amazing stay at Glamping Lands! The space was beautifully designed, clean, and clearly put together with care and thoughtfulness. If you’re visiting the Canyonlands and want a private, peaceful, and scenic place to stay, I can’t recommend this spot enough!

3 nights at The Needles Outpost Campground
We loved Amber and Caleb's land! The views were stunning. Minutes away from the National Park. Lots to explore. Amber and Caleb were both friendly and accommodating. The stars at night, WOW. I can't put into words how beautiful it was. I would recommend staying here!
One thing to be aware of if you have a camper or RV, you need to fill your potable water tanks before you drive down to their site. You can fill them up in Moab or Monticello. While the visitor center on the National Park does have potable water, they don't allow you to fill up your RV. You can fill up water bottles and 5 gallon jugs there just fine. Don't be dumb like us, and go down without water. Rookie mistake. Come prepared.
You can also use the dump at Maverick Adventures First Stop Gas Station for free in either Moab or Monticello. They also both have potable water. There is no dump in the canyon lands.
Overall, wonderful experience! Thanks Amber and Caleb!

Overview
About
There’s a pretty solid chance that you’ve heard about Moab, one of Utah’s most happening recreation spots. This gorgeous place gets packed, so do your homework beforehand so you know where to go! The Moab Field Office, administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), takes up 1.8 million acres of gorgeous canyon-riddled lands. Spend your days hunting for natural arches and bridges, exploring mesas, and contemplating how the heck rocks can look so crazy. BLM lands are also fantastic base camps for forays into nearby Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park. There are 26 campgrounds, and you can usually find something even on the busiest of weekends (but, if you can swing it, it’s always best to arrive early). River recreation on the Colorado and Green Rivers is another major draw. However you spend your time in Moab, you’ll fall in love with the impressive red rock formations, the deep canyons, and surprising amount of plant life.

We had an amazing stay at Cowboy Camp! We camped in site #6 on Tuesday, October 22nd, 2019 (High: ~80F, Low ~40F) We were the first group to arrive at the campground around ~2pm. Only 3 of the 7 sites were occupied by the end of the night.
The access road into the campground off the highway has a few deep ruts but should be manageable in any vehicle. We were fine in our low clearance Honda Fit, just go slow!
Each of the seven sites has it's own picnic table and fire pit. There is also an open air pit toilet in the middle of the campground.
All of the sites have decent spacing between them, but little shelter or privacy. Site 7 has the most privacy as it's at the end of the road.

Moonflower is now a single group site and is no longer available for individual tent camping. For groups of 20 or less. Recommend booking in advance.
The site is stunning, though close to the road so there is some noise. Easy for car camping and plenty of space in the parking lot. One downside is that the site is close to a trailhead, so people will frequently, mistakingly walk through the campsite. No running water; dogs allowed.

During the day, there’s no better view of the Colorado River and surrounding formations, and at night, be sure to take a look at the sky. This campground has that secluded feel, but is an easy 20 minutes drive down the River Road from Moab.

Stake your tent down very well, as it can get very windy during the day. I thought I had mine in the ground pretty well, but it still wound up blowing away! A kind neighbor went and retrieved it and re-staked it for us,

This was a great secluded campground. Tucked in away from HWY 128 with great access to the Colorado River. The sunset was beautiful. 360 degrees of breathtaking formations that were beautifully silhouetted.
Pros: Sites were very large and there was hardly anyone around.
Cons: Bathrooms were very primitive and there was absolutely not protection from the weather.

This can be THE location that you base your Utah adventures out of. Upper Onion Creek is within spitting distance of super formations like the Titan, Delicate Arch, and the entirety of Castle Valley. I've been here three times, and every time it's been quiet and fairly distant from the tourist noise of Moab. The 2WD road to get there is very accessible, so no worries about that regardless of what you're driving!

Camp sites right next to the Colorado River. Pros: Beautiful cliff/arch views, convenient to Moab and 4x4 trails. Cons: No water, near the road. A good option near Moab.

Goose Island is one of the first campgrounds on the south side of Arches National Park and the Colorado River, east of Moab. This is a really great spot, close to hiking, mountain biking, bouldering, kayaking and other river activities. Expect this site to fill up quickly on popular weekends.

King's Bottom Campground is on the south side of the Colorado River, west of Moab and near the entrance to Kane Springs Canyon. This is a nice area to camp because it is very close to Moab and easy access to Kane Springs Canyon activities like climbing. This campground is next to Kane Springs campground which serves as a catch all for people trying to find a place to camp on busy weekends so expect to near a lot of people when camping here. This area is also very open and prone to being very dusty if there are high winds in the area.

Beautiful camping area alongside the Colorado river on the southern side of Arches National Park. There are some great hikes back here including Negro Bill Canyon which takes you to Morning Glory Bridge and bouldering at the Big Bend Bouldering Area.

This campground is in the town of Moab itself which is very central to the national parks, state parks and blm land in the area. After talking to the Moab information office I was told that this campground often doesn't fill up as fast as others on holiday weekends because most people want to camp closer to the parks.

Good location for access to Moab, Arches, Dead Horse Point State Park and Canyonlands. The campground is quite large so expect of have company while camping here. Lots of BLM land to explore around this area as well!

This is a beautiful place to camp, off the beaten path so you will avoid most of the tourists visiting Moab. There are 10 more established campsites across the dirt road from groups sites A & B. Road is well maintained and most cars should be able to make it to these campsites. They do fill up on holiday weekends so get there early!

We pulled in late at night, not really knowing where we were. When we awoke the next morning, we saw that we were RIGHT next to the busy road, but also RIGHT next to the river. The views were beautiful but being so close to the road wasn't exactly the most desirable. I'm guessing all the campgrounds along that road are that way. We spent very little time at the actual site, so it didn't really matter. We hiked the Negro Bill canyon trail nearby, which was picturesque. The dog loved it. Grab a breakfast burrito in town at Love Muffin. Would we camp here again? Meh. We'd probably try somewhere else.

This was an amazing spot, with an awesome host. We got there really early, about 7:30, to make sure we got a spot, because most of them are gone by 10. However, we later found out that even if you pay for your spot and leave the slip clipped to the site number, people can take your spot if you don't leave something on the site. The camp host was nice enough to go over and leave a jug of water, so nobody tried to take it before we could return. The site itself was really nice. There are two restrooms on each end. The river is right next to the site, it's only a couple miles from the main road, about five miles from the town, and about five miles from the entrance to Arches National Park.

An absolute perfect campground! We went in early January and it was empty! It was incredible location to the town of Moab, boarders Arches, and is about a thirty minute drive to Canyonlands. It was winter so it was a little cold but our fire kept us warm. This would be a great camp spot in the summer. It was on the water and it was calling for us to swim in it.

Camping here is INCREDIBLE. The views are unreal if you get a good spot. It's first come first serve so show up earlier in the day and pay for your spot and leave some things out to mark that it's taken. There isn't much tree cover but it gets breezy at night. This is a great spot if you are visiting Canyonlands and Dead Horse Point. I would also recommend mountain biking or hiking in Dead Horse Point. The whole trail has amazing views.

Camping here is beautiful and right on the river! There isn't any shade so expect it to be HOT during the summer. We were there in August and while it was sweltering mid day, it was actually pretty breezy at night. You are very close to the road so you can see headlights and hear cars as they pass. There is a toilet but take a big breath before you venture in... it's ripe after being in the Moab sun all day. All in all, beautiful and super accessible. I would absolutely camp here again!
