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.

We had a great time staying at the Needles Outpost! The location is so convenient when visiting the needles district of Canyon Lands as it is just outside the park so after a long day of hiking you don’t have to drive too far to get some rest! Facilities which included showers and flush toilets, were great, super clean and well maintained! Amber was a great host and super friendly when we came and checked in! Will stay here again if we’re back in the area!

Great Spot for Family Adventure!
The area of the Needles at Canyonlands is amazing, and Amber’s campground was a fantastic place to stay! Our campsite was tucked against a large rock formation that our kids really enjoyed scrambling all over. The views were wonderful, amenities and facilities were more than adequate, and Amber’s hospitality was very kind- she welcomed us warmly and shared opinions on hikes and how to explore the surrounding area. If we are ever back in the area we would definitely stay again!

Remote camping
We enjoyed our stay, the most amazing views, and close to the park entrance. Amber was very helpful and super nice!. Bath house was under repair, but I’m sure they will get that done. Lots of nice sites up against the rock wall, and lots of rocks to climb and explore for the kids.
