We had such a great stay! The tipi was a really cool and unique camping experience, close enough to Moab to get to everything easily, but far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle of town. It was peaceful, quiet, and exactly what we were looking for.
Our favorite part of the trip was definitely Ringo, the sweet dog on the property. He “showed us around” and played with our dog the entire stay. Watching them run and explore together was honestly a highlight.
Danny was incredibly kind and hospitable. He checked in on us, made sure we were comfortable, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his guests having a good experience.
We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Great spot to stay when enjoying the town. Easy access to hiking, biking, restaurants, etc. plus kind of cool to be able to back in, hook up, and spend the night. Nice to also have access to the restrooms, pool, and hot tub. Always friendly staff.

Weekend Trip to Glamping Canyonlands
We have never glamped before staying at Glamping Canyonlands. What a great find through hipcamp! Close but not in the crowds to explore The Needles District. Erik and Keshie’s thoughtful touches and witty humor made the stay fantastic! They really have thought about all the small details needed for a great stay. The ability to cook over fire or use the community kitchen (thankful for the french press), the showers/toilets, hammocks with shaded picnic tables. The kitties and chickens were fun to see and was great reading about their story on how they built Glamping Canyonlands. Stargazing at night and quiet mornings. We can’t wait to come back and bring friends!

Nice and quiet and clean, water pressure is awesome. Don’t know that I would stay mid summer as there are no trees. Otherwise it was a nice spot away from the crowds of Moab.

Amber's description was right on!
Yes, there is red dust, yes its spartan, and everything worked as advertised. You will cherish the pictures you take from your campsite.
A special thanks to Amber for her clear directions to a local site I was searching for.

It was a full hookup site. We found it to be private and seamless experience. The road noise was a bit more than anticipated but it’s quieter at night and sleeping was not an issue. . The main building had really nice public areas and bathrooms. It’s solid for the price and I went like I received a fair deal.

This was one of the most unforgettable stays of our lives! Incredible climbing up the rocks that hugged our campsite to watch the sunset over Canyonlands. Caleb and Amber were nothing but helpful and in addition to stewarding this magical place, run a very cool little shop. We loved seeing Amber’s ceramics and watercolors there and picking up special camp treats.

A great and beautiful site, but not for everyone. A little hard to find, basic to none facilities. If don’t care about facilities, this is a really good site, especially if you come here with a dog. Very quiet, beautiful view, and pups can run freely.

Loved the tipi Glampcamping, lots of amenities to keep you comfortable. Beautiful view of ridge in Moab, small dog park for dogs to run off leash and complimentary coffee and pastries at their office made it extra special. I also have to praise them for fixing issues we had when we first arrived, very considerate and good customer service.

Great campsites nestled up against the red rock cliffs, amenities were good, host was friendly and provided good direction. Campsites were close together but I appreciated that host enforced noise ordinance (including no music).

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.

Drinks Canyon Camping Area
I stayed along the Colorado river. Not specifically at drinks canyon but at oak grove campground, which is probably less than a half mile up river from drinks. It was approximately two campsites down from drinks. The sites are perfect, other than being a little close to other campsite neighbors. It was clean for the most part and definitely quiet. Would recommend if you’re trying to get into arches day of or next day. All first come first serve 20$ per night.

William's Bottom Campground
Nice place. Road noise is loud, but we sleep with ear plugs and it disappears. The ground is quite sandy and sand gets everywhere. My only complaint would be that the toilet smelled so so bad. It had been in the 90s and it was vile!

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.
