My husband and I rented a small cabin well ahead of our destined date of arrival. When we checked in we got our key for cabin 5 d I believe the d stood for deluxe. We had to park our car on the opposite side of our cabin as a huge trailer was parked where we were supposed to park our car. We informed management immediatly as It was difficult for us to bring our belongings inside. We left for three hours thinking the trailer would be gone when we got back. It was still there and it was left there in our way the whole time even though we were angry and upset about it. It is my belief the owners knew the people and were also making money off them, as I'm sure the trailer was loaded with bikes. They were probably entered in a competition close by and were rented this space too. I think the owners here have an ethical problem when it comes to making money and do not mind inconveniencing their guests. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We made late reservations and got two nights with hookups and 2 nights dry camping. The first night some one stole parts off my Jeep. Not the fault of the campground but just the beginning of my frustration with the whole weekend. When we moved out of the hookups to the dry camping my wife asked about dumping and was told to find an open site before we left and dump there.The last night that we were there I asked about hooking up my trailer to my RV and parking both in the dry area. I was told that "we are completely full" although most of the dry camping area was open. The next morning the area was unchanged, so obviously they were not as full as they said. When I went to dump the tanks some jerk on a golf cart came up screaming about having to pay even though we had been told to go ahead and dump the day before. They don't know what each other is telling customers and I will never stay there again and recommend that others don't either. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We parked here in our 40' motorhome, 4 slides and tow vehicle. Good place to tourist from. The spaces are tight and some aren't very level. Swimming pool was closed. Staff friendly and helpful. The rate is high but this is a high recreation area. Yes, we will probably stay here again after trying some of the other campgrounds in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great park to spend time exploring the area. We stayed 8 nights, but had to move once, since we had no reservations. Park staff was friendly and helpful. Pull-thru sites are a bit tight, especially since everyone seems to have at least one ATV. Park has a reasonably stocked store and a small laundry. We felt bad when we checked out, since some large dog had pooped in our site, and our neighbor left trash under our picnic table. Not our problem, but why can't all campers be more responsible? We wish he park was more proactive. Wi-fi was slow, but our Verizon Aircard was full strength. Groceries, restaurants and shops in Moab, good burgers at Moab Brewery! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Ten miles from the city of Moab, so it's very quiet and removed. Situated next to the open desert, where you can take your ATVs, motorcycles or just hike with your pets. The only RV park that offers a view of the North and South Window arches at Arches National Park, and is located very close to the park entrance. Just across the highway is the entrance to Dead Horse Point, with Canyonlands down from there. The store keeps good hours and sells all the necessities (including cigarettes and alcohol), so you don't need to go into Moab for it. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They have propane and air on site. Sites are relatively level with good hookups. Some cool and eclectic features include the large lighted tipis at the front of the park and the old mission church. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Staff friendly and helpful. WiFi which they say they have is bad, bad, bad. I even tried it at 3AM and I still could connect for a moment and then it boots you off. No gravel, sites are dirt and it is dusty. Also, highway is right near and it is noisy, noisy. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park was clean. They placed us in a very large space. We were very pleased with the space. Personnel very friendly and helpfull, willing to give information and make suggestions on where and what to do. We made reservatons based on the park having a pool, since it was very hot. The park is deceiving on a pool information. They should advertise, an oversized hot tub. It is the smallest pool we have ever seen in a park. When we owned our house, our in-ground pool was three times bigger than this one. We went to the pool one time and it was over 100 degrees the three days we were there. The park was a great diappointment to us. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
If you have a small trailer or very short motor home, it's easy to get around. Otherwise, navigating into and out of the sites is very difficult. The sites are extremely narrow. The water hookups are almost at ground level and very inconvenient. The WiFi is very weak and slow and not very reliable. There were also lots of ants around. It is conveniently located between Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, but for us, that was the only plus. It's woefully overpriced for the quality of the facilities. I would definitely NOT stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here in overflow parking in '07, not '08. We didn't realize it was Jeep Jamboree weekend, but we didn't mind since we were there for ATVing. Our camp was 15 feet from the trail head and I could see Arches from the window. General store was nice as was the employees. No problems running of the generator. Not sure what the actual sites were like, but they kept one pull thru site open for the overflow to use to dump and refill tanks. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We were looking forward to staying here, but we were quite disappointed. The sites were very close together, and we were far away from the better bathrooms (the smaller bathrooms had no soap for hand washing). The place is a haven for ATVs, and although the rules said no riding ATVs before or after a certain time, those rules were not followed. We were glad they could not accommodate our second night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed here for five nights using it as a base camp for hiking and mountain biking. Have stayed here several times before. For the second year in a row they made a mess of my reservations but figured out how to make things work. This is a busy campground. Lots of ATVs etc. coming and going. WiFi doesn't have enough bandwidth for user base and is not stable. Not a pretty place to camp but good location. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice clean campground. Gravel roads. We were parked in the east side of the park and could see some of the arches at Arches NP on the horizon. It was beautiful. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. If you are going to Arches and Canyonlands NP or Dead Horse Point SP, this is the campground to stay in - very convenient to both. My only criticism is that the WiFi was terrible - very slow (when it worked) and the latency was measured in thousands of ms. It was 9 miles to drive in to Moab but since we were going to the national parks, we found this campground to be excellent for our needs. Would stay here again if in this area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Let me explain that I am not a picky person. We are in a site that is too small for our rig let along our rig and a tow. They advertise large shady sites. Ha! We asked if they had a pullthru where we would not have to unhook since this is a touch and go for us and I explained we have a 37' motor home towing a jeep. They gave us this site that barely fits the motorhome. Had to unhook and park the tow car elsewhere. Gravel and dust, mostly dust. WIFI at all sites a joke. We can get it but the data flow is so slow it is almost unusable. No tv of any kind. The "shade" is small trees about the height of the motorhome. The word "resort" should not be used in this park's name. No way we are coming back here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park. Great location for Arches and Canyonlands Nat'l Parks. Small but nice pool. No TV unless you have a dish. Wifi works, but is sometimes slow. We stayed a month and now were back again. Great park if you have ATV's. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We chose this park based on previous ratings and its proximity to Arches and Canyonlands and it served as a very convenient base camp. Yes, it is a glorified gravel parking lot, but I guess I expected that in the desert. The pool is small, but enough for the kids to get wet in after a long day of hiking. The WiFi was intermittent, especially in the morning. The staff were friendly and helpful. Would stay here again if in the area. We camped 3 nights. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Caution!! this seems to be the overflow campground when all the ones in town are full. Kelly in the office checked us in and was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area, but quite naive about the campground. Assuring us that the 5 mph speed limit was enforced and if we saw anyone going over just let the office know. Didn't see her again til the end of our week there. So, 1)kids running amuck 2)the help as well as others going well over the 5 mph kicking up big clouds of dust 3)the rule about no riding of ATV's in the "resort" HA 4) pets leashed HA 5) pool rules HA and when things were brought to the attention of the office it was said that they really didn't want to ruin anyone's weekend! The wi-fi was hit or miss mostly miss. How this place can call itself a "Resort" is beyond me. My advice:Keep Driving! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a nice campground and the scenery was magnificent! the sites are rather short (even for a tent trailer) but worked out ok. The place was clean and the staff was very pleasant. Although small, the pool (the only one in the area) does offer a refreshing break after a hot dusty drive in the desert. I will come back to the area again to explore Canyonlands and use this park as a base to operate from. the light from the sunsets and sun rises that dance off the rocks was a sight to see. For the price, this place is a good deal. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Stayed 3 nights. No grass anywhere. Close to attractions. Would not stay here again. As usual pet owners do not pick up after their pets. The pet area was not clean. I would think they would at least clean it every now and then. Stayed here in a motorhome. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Not a bad park for a short stay. The "G" row pull-thru sites gave a view of the mountains & a hint of the Arches (Arches Natl Park is a Must-See). When we checked in no one told us they now have (free) WiFi - I discovered the signal was strong when I turned on my computer. Called the Office for the "code" but, for security reasons, had to go back into the Office and have them give me the access code. The Park does not seem to have the usual requirement to use a boot/coupler on the sewer hose so clueless campers next to us must have threaded about three feet of their sewer hose down. The next morning they reported their sewer backed up & didn't seem to believe the camp host when he pointed out the proper way to avoid problems when campers uphill empty their black tanks prior to departure. We probably wouldn't stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We came to this park based on everyone's previous ratings. Either they're all blind, camping in tents, or they don't know what a park worthy of a 8-9 rating is truly like. This is a big gravel parking lot with small trees seperating each site. There is no cable TV, no wi-fi and the ONLY real benefit is the close proximity to the National Parks. Our 42' motorhome extends into the road in both the front AND the back and it's so dusty you can't open a window. Although the views are great we will never return. Drive further into Moab for a park, you wont be sorry. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had a gorgeous site for our 40' motorhome. Not all the sites are spacious. The park is very well kept. There is a laundry, well-stocked store and Shell fuel. There are nice views from all sites. The owners and workers were very friendly. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The views are fantastic. There is a movie prop church on site. Very close to all the attractions. The check in also serves as the gift shop/convenience store/gas station and gets a lot of business. When the staff is busy, it is difficult to ask questions. There was no escort to the site, but they are well marked. Sites are level, gravel, no grass. But there are small trees between each site. The sites are narrow for slide outs. Picnic table and BBQ grill at each site. No fire pits but there is a large, community fire pit near the pool. There is a dog walk. Adequate garbage facilities but they do not offer recycling containers. The price on their website was $23.95. Add another $3 for 50 amp, which was not advertised. Plenty of camping cabins, all with a good view. The modem hook up is attached to a payphone and is posted for "Email download only". Even though it is off the road, you do hear some road noise. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is very close to the main highway to the Islands in the Sky section of Canyonlands and about five miles or so from the south entrance of Arches. Also, about a mile north of the park is the west entrance into Arches which requires 4x4. For the area, the park was not bad. The sewer hookups required a very long hose as they were at the front of the space instead of the back of the space. I don't recommend that you buy gas at the gas station they have. We put some in our Jeep and it made the engine ping like crazy until I ran it out. The bathrooms are very nice (individual units) with toilet, sink and shower. I would probably stay there again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The pool is very small, but most campgrounds in the area have no pool. Arch View has
sites that are further from the highway than other local campgrounds and the view is great. We could see the Arches National park from our campsite. There is a trail (Bike, ATV , Walking, 4 wheel drive) that starts right at the park. It is dusty, but so is the entire area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Easy access from highway and close to Arches NP, Dead Horse Point SP and Canyonlands NP. Does have trees but don't count on a lot of shade. Views of surrounding rock formations. Shell station,camp store, helpful staff. Just a few miles north of
Moab. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Right in town. We don't tow a car, so very convenient for us. Can walk to many restaurants and shops, and Canyonlands Tours will pick you up at the park. Tight sites, but enough space for a picnic table and room to sit under a tree. Nicely maintained. Several used bookstores in town. Good food and beer at the microbrewery. We camped here in a Motorhome.
After reading the recommendations of this web site we decided to stay here when visiting Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. I'm amazed no one mentioned that this park backs up to a school (middle or high school - not sure which). We pulled in to the sound of Tiny Tim's "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" blaring over the PA system from the school. The school was having some sort of event (summer camp?) and the kids were all out playing on a slip-n-slide and various other games/sports. Lots of loud music followed for the rest of the afternoon. That night there was a baseball game (bright lights and a big crowd). The next day we did not hear music, but periodic calls over the PA system, such as "Miss Adams, please report to the office", etc. This place is clean and well-run by a professional, friendly staff. Like others have said, the spaces are very close together. We will not stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

As noted, this campground can be a tight fit for larger rigs, but there were plenty of big rigs around our Envoy/hybrid travel trailer. The spaces are fairly narrow and close together, but shady. The upside is it is right in the middle of Moab and within walking distance of much of the central town area. It was plenty quiet, even for close quarters. Internet worked okay, tho' on Saturday night when the park was packed, it was slow. Showers/bath house were fine, although the men's room could use more than two toilets as there are plenty of tenters in the park. The dog walk area is small but adequate for most purposes except exercising a lively dog. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Spaces are tight, narrow and short. Dusty. WiFi worked. Pool small but nice and clean. Think we will find another place next time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If not careful could miss the entrance to the campground as quite a small entrance off main street. Limited area to park and register. Office staff friendly and efficient. Access roads gravel and a little narrow particularly on corners. Sites are well treed, gravel/concrete and flat. Services in right location for easy hook-up. Pull-thru sites are a little short to have car on back. Excellent Wi-Fi and good cable TV. Two dog walks at corner of campground. The campground is well maintained. Some road noise. Within walking distance of shops. Good location to visit Arches and Canyonlands National Parks We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good location to historic downtown Moab within 3-4 blocks walking distance of grocery store, restaurants, and shops. Pull-through sites are gravel, narrow, concrete curbing,and in close proximity; however, plenty of trees for shade. The small gravel pet run is located in the back next to the fence for the city park and high school stadium. The pool located in front on main street. It is In the heart of Moab. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed the large shade trees and the pull-thru concrete pads. You pull in and you are level! They are in a great location in town and you can walk to restaurants, etc. They have a small pool to enjoy. The staff was very friendly There are two dog runs. We were surprised how quiet it was considering it is in town. We will stay there again! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
It is the only campground you can walk to town from, sites are tight as previously mentioned. Some sites appeared to have 8 or more people occupying them. Bathrooms were clean. It was not a very relaxing place to stay, felt crowded and busy. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A nice park inside the town of Moab. Sites were on the closer side, but the location was superb. We enjoyed walking downtown to the different shops and places to eat. This was a nice park and we will stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
As previously stated this is a very tight campground for a 40' motorhome. Entrance and turns in the campground are extremely tight. Other than that, the restrooms are clean, good power and cable and free WiFi. Some long term occupants have spread out of there assigned spots and make the rows almost impassable at times. For a big rig I would consider the KOA up the road. We will not return here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The sites at this park are tight, tight, tight. You'll need a shoehorn to get both your camper and your tow vehicle into the space they allow. Having said that, it is right downtown and within walking distance of the shops and restaurants of Moab. The WiFi connection was good. This would have been a 8, but I give it a 6 because of the tight sites. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice park in the Moab area, the biggest plus is its location close to the "downtown strip" and proximity to restaurants and shops. There were only a couple others I would consider staying at, but a lot more I would not visit. Wi-Fi was a little slow, pool was drained and refilled when we got there so it was clean, but cold. Restrooms were only cleaned once a day, but with a park this size they should have been given more attention. Concrete pads were nice, but gravel interior roads were dusty. Owners and staff were helpful and courteous. A nice touch is after a customer leaves, the staff comes to each site to clean it and wash down the pad and immediate surrounding gravel. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We were very pleased to have a site here in the middle of town. Yes,the sites are a bit short and a bit close together,but the trees are wonderful for their shade. It was 107 one of the days we were there, and w/o the trees we would have roasted.The restrooms were clean, and the people in the front office were very helpful. We went to the brew-pub, and it was great. We also went up-river to the Red Cliffs Lodge for lunch; some excellent wine and the local film museum is a lot more than you'd expect. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We had stayed at this campground 25 years ago and remembered how welcome the trees were. And they still are, a real plus in this hot location. Close to town, Arches, and Canyonlands. Staff very helpful. Park well-kept. Would camp here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The best attributes of this park is that it is somewhat protected from Moab's winds, and that it is walking distance to shops and restaurants. The negatives are that the sites are too close together and short; Rvers are allowed to hang clothes lines; the handles on the dryers were broken and the dog area is awful. Think I'll try another RV Park next time I'm in Moab. We camped here in a Motorhome.
In the center of Moab, near Arches Nat'l Park. Walking distance to restaurants. Far enough from the highway, quiet nights. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here with our 4 year old son and we really enjoyed it. It is a very well maintained campground. The park and the restrooms were clean. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful. All the sites have trees at them which makes it very nice. Our son enjoyed the playground. We also like that we could walk to town. Since it is in town we did not have any highway noise which is nice. We found the RV sites very accommodating for our 38' ft motorhome and car. We are definitely going to stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
All the hookups and the Wifi worked well. We were not bothered by street noise and actually found it convenient to groceries, gas, beer, etc. The site sizes are adequate but not roomy. Many sites are in shade, its hot in Moab. The pet area isn't fit for a dog. Go down by the creek, you won't bother anyone. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We moved here from Slickrock campground because it was too dirty and noisy. We were very satisfied with Canyonlands. Everything was spotless, campers were polite/quiet, staff was good and it is right in town (I didn't notice road noise). The cabins were typical KOA style and very clean with air conditioning and a screened front porch under a shade tree. It had 'big rigs' in it but the spaces were very tight. I noticed the tent area was set up like the RV area so not much privacy but the tent area wasn't full and it was away from the RV traffic which helped. There was a 'private' tent area but it had road noise and noise from a loudspeaker and very far from the bathrooms, all tenters were up in the upper tent area. We will stay here again, it was very pleasant and relaxing after a long day of hiking/biking. I highly recommend this campground. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.
This place is smack in the middle of town, but the highway noise isn't too bad if you get a spot toward the rear. Dust wasn't too bad because they had gravel down. Staff was cordial. We really liked how you could walk across the street to the brewery, one block from an RV wash location, and the grocery store was bikeable too. Super convenient location to stay overnight, get some business done, swim in their pool, and split. Nothing fancy but it's location can't be beat. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was a last minute stay. Minus - Spots tight, be careful leaving park you can scrap bottom really easy. Dog walk area sad but if you go down where they have tents and flood area it is nice for dogs. Pluses - Staff friendly, close to town and food. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Tight is the operative word at this downtown campground. Neither we nor our neighbor could put out our awnings and our 4 slides barely made it. We saw quite a few big rigs and our 37" fifth wheel is not small, but we were able to place ourselves on our small pad with one pull through and one backing adjustment. Now parking our truck was another matter, we had to back it in under the hitch parallel to the front road. Moab is the Mecca of off-roading and the campground was full of barely street legal Jeeps with questionable mufflers. Quiet time seemed to be well respected, but after biking or 4 wheeling all day who wants to party all night and if you do there are places within walking distance for that kind of fun. We were there during part of Utah's Spring Break but the kids were quiet and respectful. This is a great place for pop-ups and tenter's, they have a very nice area for them to camp. Dish washing sinks are located just outside each restroom and in the laundry. WiFi was great but then we were only 20' from the antenna. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
My husband and I stayed here for six nights the beginning of October. It's a very busy place but for the most part everyone was respectful of the 10pm quiet time. This is not a sleepy little town so if thats what your looking for, you probably wouldn't want to stay anywhere here. We came to explore Moab in our jeep with some friends. It's an incredible place. Many 4x4's, ATV's, and motorcycles cruising the area. A tourist town for sure! We loved our stay and we will definitely be back here to Canyonlands RV Park. We did not use the showers or restrooms as we camped in our motorhome. There were two sets of dumpsters on either ends of the park. I wanted to use the pool but we were too busy jeeping everyday. There is a store/gas station/espresso stand as you enter the park. The park is located within walking distance to many restaurants and cool shops. We will be back here for sure! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is right in town so is convenient to shopping and restaurants etc. The sites are small and stacked together like cordwood. The wifi is free but somewhat slow so can't complain too much there because it is free. Lots of older mature trees. Back row backs up to a high school with batting cages along he fence so all you hear is the thump, thump of the balls being hit. Moab is a very busy little town with lots of bicyclists, atvs and 4wd vehicles. Pretty expensive for what you get. The so-called concrete pads are barely large enough for a pop-up trailer let alone any normal size rv. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The sites in this campground are a little tight. It is right in the middle of town, but the outside road noise isn't bad. We did hear the high school football game whose field is at the back of the park. It is a very busy park, with lots of in and out traffic at all hours (lots of loud jeeps going to play in the canyons). We camped here in a Motorhome.
For a tourist town like Moab, a very good campground. The WiFi was better than any other campground so far. Stayed three nights because we loved this place. Will return again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground was clean, shady and conveniently located. We had reserved a site for the night before we actually arrived and they let us check in that morning without charging for the missed night. The dog area was shady and easy to get to. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good location, walking distance to shopping/grocery/restraunts. Shady, clean, c-store, gas station on site. Mild road noise. No grass, two small pet areas (dirt). Gravel/concrete sites, level sites. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Stayed here in a site with water and electric. Great location and price. Very friendly staff and helpful as well. Will return and spend more time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is great. The service at check-in was very professional and friendly. We arrived with multiple rigs and special needs (OHV trailers). We were quickly on our way to our sites and directed to where to park our OHV trailers. The sites are level and the mature trees are a must. The sites can be close for the largest of rigs but our gasers w/slides on both sides fit fine. The pool was refreshing and always clean. The restrooms were clean even with the many tenters utilizing them. The WiFi worked at our sites. The onsite store, gas station and laundry mat were very convenient. The location is a plus for us, in the middle of town, but no road noise. We have stayed here for multiple years and will continue to when visiting Moab. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We camped here in a small motor home, 22 foot. We were close to front of park and did notice any street noise. Restaurants were within walking distance. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We love this park due to it being close to the grocery and other town amenities (walking distance) and the groups of people from foreign countries who use this wonderful campground. The owners are very nice/friendly. We will always return here when we visit Moab. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
I checked no pull throughs and not big rig accessible because this older park simply is too tight and close for big rigs and pull throughs although they advertise that they offer these features. Trees, branches, poorly placed rocks, etc., make navigating this park very difficult for a bigger rig. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is a classic case of where, once it was nice, but the trees have now matured
and have closed in and this, along with huge boulders being placed everywhere, makes it a nightmare to navigate. Very tight turns and difficult parking. Their definition of a "paved" space is one where several pourings of concrete have been connected together, and they are all horifically cracked and unlevel. Not a nice place at all.

This is one of the worst campgrounds in America. If your rig is over 30 feet in length, you're going to have trouble here. The owners have placed rocks in unbelievable places. If you get out of here without scratching your rig, you're lucky indeed. Avoid it unless you want a stressful situation. There are lots of other great campgrounds in the area without problems such as this one has. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Dead Horse Point matches the Grand Canyon. We stayed there for a week. The only water in the park is "trucked" in daily from Moab so they ask that you fill your fresh water tank before arriving. They do have a place at the bathroom (no showers) where you can fill a jug. We loved it there- Canyon Lands is close by and Arches is about 30 miles toward Moab. Wonderful hiking both at Dead Horse Point and at the National Parks. Our only complaint was the gnats- or what's called no- seeums. Could not find anything to repel them. Supposedly just a problem late spring and early summer. We would love to go back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed here for 5 nights while visiting Canyonlands and this park. This place is absolutely beautiful, with views and hiking trails from anywhere in camp. It is also one of the quietest campgrounds we have stayed in. We had space 19, a slight up hill back in space 55 feet long. I had no trouble backing in or leveling. Space 11 also looks very nice. I don't know if a 40 foot triple slide would fit either space but I would bet they would. We had a great time here and would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Paid an extra $8.00 to make a reservation. Sight was up hill and hard to back into. The sight had a great covered picnic table with an over heard light and a cabinet for storage. There was electric but no water and none at the dump sight to refill with. Lots of privacy. Great proximity to trails and sights. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A real out-of-the-way Utah state park. Extremely quiet area with outstanding views. Roads and pads paved but may require some effort to get level. Most sites fairly well separated. New electrical service to sites, no water or sewer at sites, dump station available but no water there. Lack of water a major detraction but if you can work your way around that a wonderful place. I would strongly suggest that you have a reservation. If you get there and they are full it is a long way to anywhere else. Take some time and explore the park. Numerous deer in the Campground. If you want to see some real stars get there on a moonless night. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This small campground is in great proximity to one of the West's most awesome views. The view from Dead Horse Point is unbelievably beautiful both at sunset and sunrise. The campground has a few big sites. I like site #1 for size and privacy. Campfires were not allowed when we were there. Nice roof covering the picnic table. Outside storage provided. Must bring in drinking water. No water available. Dump station avail but no water to rinse hose. Despite the negatives, this campground is a gem. I would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
There are not many spaces a 40' motorhome will fit. I was in space #1 a pull through long enough for the largest RV. I would also recommend space # 11 for big rigs. The new 50A service makes this a pleasure for keeping cool without the sound of generators. Some sites are secluded some are not. Overall a great place to stay for Dead Horse Point and Canyonlands Island in the Sky. There are restrooms, but no showers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We camped here for 3 nights with two other families. The campsites have great views, and we saw mule deer two of the three evenings here. No problem with privacy (try for an outer loop site if you are concerned). The picnic tables are covered and have 2 of 4 sides covered to protect from the sun. There is an fun short hike from the campground to the cliff edge for a beautiful sunset view, and you can walk or bike to Dead Horse Point from the campground. This is a MUCH better choice for camping than any of the RV parks in Moab. Conserve your water, there is only one place to get drinking water in the campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Many of the sites are not very large or level and none were private or secluded in my opinion but the views and the park itself more than make up for it. Sites have 20 amp electric which is unusual for state parks in this area and very welcome but there is no potable water for filling your water tank. There is no shade to speak of but some nice greenery. There are flush toilets with water but no showers. We were in site #14 and had a lot of rain during our stay but the parking pad itself is paved and the area drained fine for us, we liked the site because it sits up on the hill a bit and had a nice view of the canyon beyond but our neighbors were fairly close on both sides. We have a 30 ft class A. The dump station is well situated for easy in and out but also has no water. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Well maintained park. Fantastic view of canyon. Sites have privacy from other campers. Pad size varies from 40 ft to 105 ft. Roads and pads are blacktop paved. A mixture of back in and pull through sites. Each site has a coverd picnic table with electric light and storage box. Electrical service is only 20 amp. Campers are advised to bring full water tanks. However there is limited potable water in the park. The park has a dump station also. Park is 23 miles from highway 191 on road 313. Is located 33 miles from Moab, Ut. Adjacent to the park is a Ranger operated visitor center. We camped in June. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Beautiful campground in the desert. Sites are secluded so you see the scenery instead of your neighbors. Very clean campground. We camped here in a camper.
The price is the average. One night was 41.50 the other was 39.50. The higher was because it was a holiday. This is the first time in all our travels I have experienced a increase in price because of a holiday. Across the field was a cow pen/feed lot. At times we could smell them. The whole park was gravel/dirt. This park is the first one you come to coming from the south, please keep driving a little further north and you will find nicer parks for just as much money. Wish we had. We did not want to drive any further north than we had to in our motorhome to save the diesel. Wish we had. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very busy park, but the best in the area. No one to show you to your site so expect to get lost and drive around for a while. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Certainly a good KOA. Routing is a little difficult at times, but otherwise ok. Trees on route around CG could stand trimming so be careful when going to your site with a big rig. Great wifi and satellite coverage. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Definitely would stay here again. Problem: only 2 washers and dryers, so we had to go to town to do wash. We would definitely stay here again. We used this as our base camp to explore Arches and Canyonlands NPs. The best sites are 40 thru 45 as they are wide and you have have a view of Moab Fault. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We were misled by this park and therefore were unable to stay there. I spoke to a very nice lady on the phone a few days before we were thinking about staying there. She said to just call when we knew for sure and that they would fit us in for sure. I called a day or two later and was told by the man who answered the phone that there was a 5 day minimum that week due to the Jeep Safari...absolutely no exceptions. We had already changed our travel arrangements to include Moab and were now left without a place to stay. Fortunately, Moab Valley RV had a spot, although we would have much rather stayed at the KOA. I give them a 1 because one hand apparently doesn't know what the other one is doing, which left us scrambling. To the nice lady I spoke to initially (who left a very good impression), I am so sorry we didn't get to meet or stay at your park. "We did not stay in this park". We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
These are the rudest people I have ever met in my life. They have no customer service skill what so ever. They were very short and intolerant of people. I would not recommend this campground to anyone! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice KOA. Friendly and courteous staff. Restrooms and showers were immaculate. Sites were nice size. Good wifi strength. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our visit to Moab despite the oppressive heat (over 102 every day of our visit!). This campground had plenty of shade and very friendly and helpful hosts. The bath houses were private and very clean. The pool was always crowded. We felt like a visitor to another country here, everywhere we went we heard a different language being spoken. My wife had $60 in cash stolen out of her purse which she had forgotten in a bathroom for five or ten minutes. That, and the heat, were the two lowlights of the visit. The good things really outweighed the bad though. The campground hosts will make reservations for you at many of the area attractions. We chose "Canyonlands by Night" dinner and light show which we highly recommend. The Canyonlands bus picked us up at the campground and dropped us off right at our camper after the show. Outstanding service, and many of the attractions will pick you up at the campground. The campground offered a pancake breakfast which we did not try. They also have several apricot trees around and invited my daughter to pick as many as she wanted as long as they were soft and orange. The general store was well-stocked for last minute items and our Wi-Fi connection was always strong. Our site had cable TV connection but we don't have a TV with our camper so we didn't try it. We will definitely stay here again, just not in July or August! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Very nice park. We stayed there one night on our way to Yellowstone. Very kids friendly. Nothing stands out to make a special place but it was adequate. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Most sites have some shade and seemed to be fairly level with all gravel. Wi-Fi good. Many sites are satellite friendly. Cable TV has all major networks but otherwise is somewhat limited. A large area is available as a pet walk but if your pet has to have grass you are in trouble as there is none anywhere and the Moab public areas are decidedly dog un-friendly. NO DOGS ALLOWED. We would most likely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Most campsites are shaded by medium size trees but the roads and sites are a dusty sand and gravel mixture making for a dusty situation. Staff were friendly and helpful and there are many amenities for children. However, compared to what we could see of other parks closer to the National Parks, it wasn't worth the 5 mile drive south of town. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground was clean with an interesting layout -- staff was very friendly. Sewer hookup on our site was awkward and not convenient, but water and electric was fine. Sandy site was very unlevel, so we had to extend our jacks as high as they could go. There are 2 Wi-Fi access points installed here, so coverage was above average. Compared to other RV Parks in Moab, we're glad we stayed here and would definitely visit again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is an older KOA. The internal roads are dirt and gravel. The sites are dirt with gravel pads. The internal roads and site are narrow. The water pressure goes from bad to non-existent. Very few sites for big rigs or long 5th wheels. Some sites are pull through others are backins. This KOA has the most tent sites and KOA cabins I have ever seen. Like all of the campgrounds in Moab it is right on highway 191. The wifi is very weak away from the camp store. Air card and Sat/TV worked fine. We will look for another campground on our next visit to Moab. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We couldn't have had a nicer time. Park was about 1/2 full. The camp staff was very nice. Gravel spots were well maintained. I saw park staff drag the gravel spaces after each camper vacated. All amenities were in working order. Free WiFi a little spotty, but ok. Mountain and red-rock scenery from the park was gorgeous. Kids enjoyed the ice-cream social nightly. (Ok, I enjoyed it too!) Park staff very helpful in arranging tours. Park is about 5 miles south of town but is still convenient for exploring Arches and Canyonlands. Pool area was nice but pool was COLD! If my kids said it was cold, believe me, it was cold. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very clean restrooms and showers. Staff extremely friendly. Park is a bit dusty and quite a way out of town, so you must have a car or use a cab if you want to go into town without un-hooking your RV. First time we've experienced the KOA "Kitchen" where they cook you breakfast (for a fee). Good park for kids; as they have video games (for a fee), miniature golf and pedal carts available for rent. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great bathroom set up! Pool was nice and very clean. Sites were dusty - typical for southern Utah, but could be occasionally watered down. Staff were temperamental, and not very helpful when it came to town information. They did accomodate our early arrival though. Decent place for a one night stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very friendly staff, well trained and knowledgeable of the local area. The staff had good suggestions for activities, shopping, restaurants, and sight seeing. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I stay here every time I come to Moab. The cabins are nice and have air conditioning are clean. There is a small grill out front and small store on site. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.
This was our biggest disappointment on our two month trip. The sites were very tight and there were too many bushes and poorly placed trees around the site. Despite our best efforts, we scratched our trailer on a tree on the corner of the site. After setting up we found out that there was no TV reception and no cable on our site. We were told that we did not have full hookups (we had agreed to go without sewer) so we did not have cable. We cancelled our remaining four nights as we found much better accommodations elsewhere in Moab. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Most beautiful view you have ever seen. At night when the sun would set the towering rocks would glow and the mountains would appear purple. There is a nice pool at this campground. The sites are 100% dirt and close together, but what do you expect in the desert? There is Cable TV with 18 stations. One of the stations is The Weather Channel, so you can check the local Moab forecast before you go to the local national parks. We were only able to spend three nights, but wished we could stay longer. Moab is a neat little town. Arches Nat'l Park is a must see. We didn't make it to Canyonlands but heard it was nice to. The staff in the office is very helpful and spend a lot of time while checking in to tell you the must sees in Moab. The reason I didn't give this campground a 10 was because the sites weren't fantastic and the campground could use some minor improvements. I would recommend this campground for sure. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is an older KOA that shows its age. The office staff was helpful enough but the park just doesn't have much to offer. A jury-rigged irrigation system is plugged directly into the potable water system and drops pressure to almost zero when in use. All the dirt/gravel sites are narrow, closely spaced, and require much leveling. There are a lot better options in the Moab area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I have always liked KOAs but not this one. The management was not very friendly and kept
emphasizing "the rules", yet we were two older, well traveled couples, one set retired with no kids or pets. However, the BAD problem was sanitation. Water hookups were within six inches of the sewage hookup and at ground level ... there was no way to keep the potable water hose from getting sewage soaked dirt on it as you connected it. Thank God for bleach. I checked several nearby sites, and all but one were the same way. Moreover, trickle water-hose was attached to the second hose bib ... I wonder if there was even a back-siphon valve. Anyway, management did not care. I have sent photos to KOA headquarters. Such unsanitary conditions are NOT ACCEPTABLE! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice KOA. Not much grass, even for tent sites. But what do you want for being in the desert? Good size pool finally gets some shade late in the afternoon. Average gift and grocery
stores. We camped here in a camper.
A great value at Passport America rate...$17 includes 50 amps and tax....Cable is no charge with 70 channels. Friendly clerk. The business next door is not an issue with me, it's far enough away...Pull thrus have concrete patio but most have no grass or shade...The tent sites are very nice with covered picnic table. Park is well kept. Cabins appear to be fairly new. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We didn't plan ahead where we were spending the night and called ahead from Salt Lake City. We got one of the last back-in sites, and this was leading into Memorial weekend. When we expressed interest in staying 6 nights, we were moved to a pull-through. Staff seemed a bit harried, but that was expected as the campground was full and lots of people had questions. We found them very friendly and helpful. Our neighbors had children and a dog - all very well behaved. The kids were kids, but in bed and quiet by 9:30pm no problems. Easy access to downtown. Wi-fi was a bit slow, so we used our Verizon aircard. Nice site, we'd stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground seems to attract the noisier crowd. Last night we had the worst neighbors that we have ever had in any campground in 30 years. We won't camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The rate is with Passport America discount which is good Sunday through Thursday. This is a nice park with full hookup sites both pull through, pull in and back in. Restrooms were clean and well maintained. They have wi-fi which we did not use since our verizon air-card worked well here. As other reviewers have indicated the area across from and to the south of this campground is pretty crummy with lots of junk - the park itself is very clean and well maintained. The park is one of two (the other is Spanish Trail) which are located south of Moab which adds a little to the distance needed to drive to Arches, Canyonland, Dead Horse and the La Sal loop road. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park was clean and well maintained. It is evident the managers are working hard to improve the park. We had a space in the front row with a spectacular view of the mountains, and no trees blocking satellite reception. The campgrond wi-fi was very fast. The sites are level and the highway noise was minimal. We had no problem getting in and out with our 40' motorhome. This is one of the best Passport America parks. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This a difficult CG for us to review. It has a great location with just terrific views. It's in a solid location to see the area, the sites are level, a tad tight but not bad. The downside is the area it's in. A truck/equipment junkyard next door and kids on motor bikes are annoying. The trees are not yet mature, but this place has potential. Not sure if we'd stay again, but not all bad. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is clean well kept and quiet, surprisingly because it's right on the highway.There are very level pull thru's. We had an electrical brown out, but I really don't think it was the park's fault as electrical looks new and well kept. Lady manager is a bit testy, but loosened up after chatting a bit more with her. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had a group rally here and the weather was terribly (unusually) cold for this time of the year. The campgrounds did not have a building available for group meetings, however. We were offered a 'shed' but it was too cold and windy. The campgrounds are clean; staff was very nice. They were in the process of rearranging some of the sites and had poured new concrete sidewalks and picnic table areas in the front row by the highway. Highway noise was minimal, especially at night. Great view of the La Sal Mountains (covered with snow). WiFi was terribly slow. No other amenities. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed here because it was a Passport America campground, but only one night was eligible. Weekend nights are regular rates only. Basic campground with all the usual hookups. Staff are very friendly and the campground is clean. The sites are of ample width with gravel for the site slots and the roads. Some road noise, especially on the front row. Nice views of the surrounding hills. WiFi was good and included in price. 2 miles out of town, but more affordable than the RV parks in Moab. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is Moab's newest campground featuring lovely grass tent sites and RV spaces located two miles South of town on the West side of Hwy 191. While it is sited near a busy roadway, heavy truck noise was moderate. The rate listed reflects the Passport America discount valid only Sunday through Thursday nights. The desirable park was nearly full in the Fall season, so advance reservations are advised, but not required. Only cash or checks are accepted with any discounted rate. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very clean and secure park, not noisey like a lot of parks in moab. The staff is super nice and helpful. Restrooms and showers are spotless and maintained. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed the month of May in this park at a cost of $640 for the month. Gated resort area and very secure and maintained. The pull throughs could be tight if you are longer then 40' Close to Arches National Park and the Colorado River. The only down was the cotton wood trees are a little messy during the spring time. We will return to this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice park and I was here for 2 weeks over the Memorial Day weekend so it was busy and everything in town was sold out. It's a very nice park and the staff were excellent. Wi-Fi worked very well but I was 60 feet from the Pavilion. However Verizon 3G cards work at full speed here so Wi-Fi was redundant for me. I thought the place was well kept and the 360 degrees canyon views are awesome. You probably can't find a better base camp for access to town, Canyon lands National Park and Arches National Park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good location to downtown Moab. We have a 31ft travel trailer and requested a pull through. The site was tight making it hard to park our TV near the trailer. There are larger pull throughs but they apparently don't offer those unless requested. Great pool & jacuzzi. Management can be a bit anal with rules and reg's but all in all it is well run and a nice park. Stayed a week. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We would never have stayed here had we known what it was like, however, we were very grateful to get a spot (KOA misinformed us on their availability and turned out there was a 5 day minimum due to Jeep Safari). The spots were very tiny and we couldn't even fit our truck in the spot (we have a 26' travel trailer). Our neighbor campers had left their bikes and a big crate in our space. That neighbor also had a clothes line set up right where our window faced. We moved into the only other available spot instead, which was on the other side of that same unkempt neighbor. Having said this, this was a full hook-up, pull-through, level site. As long as we stayed in our trailer, it was fine. The WIFI didn't work consistently. I probably would have given this place a 5, but bumped them up due to getting us in at the last minute. Arches National Park was very close and amazing, so we still had a great time. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The campground was clean and relatively quiet. However, the staff was not very helpful and sometimes seemed "clueless". The wi-fi did not work for 7 of the 8 days we stayed, and the young lady at the desk said it was no big deal because it was free to us. We will probably stay at a different campground next October. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The campground has security gates and is located about 3 miles from downtown Moab on Hwy 191 with little highway noise. Pull-through, full hook-up RV sites are wide and gravel with grassy area dividers; and are located separate from cabins/tents. It is an excellent location for Arches Nat Park and Hwy 128 canyon drive. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I checked in and everything went well, went away for a bit came back and went to relax at the pool. While I was there we noticed a Class C pull in and check in. At this time there were almost three empty rows of spots for RV's where did this Class C have to go why right next to us. When front desk was queried as to why it was only cause she lacked the imagination and initiative to look at the whole park and say lets put you here as there is no one else there. Her solution was to have me unhook and rehook up at another sight? So an hour of work cause of the neglect by the front desk staff to ensure that well the campground is empty you could simply space out the guests. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was our second stay (we were here in September, 2007), and the park is as we described then – sites close together, often not level, and pull-throughs barely long enough to accommodate our 25-ft trailer and crew cab tow vehicle. The park still is basically dirty gravel – it certainly wouldn't take that much money for proper gravel to keep down the dust and dirt, but unfortunately that did not happen in the year since we've been here. Its location is excellent, staff is friendly, the shade trees are lovely in the heat, cable TV reception is average (but selection is good), and the wi-fi is excellent with no access problems. The water pressure is about 85 psi, so a reducer is important. We camped 2 nights with no pets. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Easiy accessible from the 191 just north of Moab. WIFI very good. Pool and hot tub good. Pull through sites fairly spacious and shaded. Recommend the 'end cap' sites for a little more space and privacy. Nice activities for kids - 'horseshoe chucking', giant chess and checkers boards. Price, a little on the higher side but facilities are pretty good. Warning - mosquitoes are everywhere due to the proximity of the river so bug spray is essential. Immediate sites of interest - Arches Park, Canyonlands (and for a quick taste of Canyonlands spectacular views - DeadHorse Point State Park) For access back to the I-70, highly recommend the 128 Scenic Byway instead of 191 (better suited to smaller rigs although doable in a 45fter!) We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice campground for children with a nice pool and other activities like a life sized chess and checker board. It is a couple of miles outside of town and there is no trolley service from the campground to town so if you are not pulling a car you have to unhook frequently. (we were spoiled in Durango) We rented a Jeep for a few days to make it easy to get around to both NP's and town without unhooking frequently. The site is very level and really beautiful but one major problem is mosquitos. The town has been taken over this year due to the high water according to many towns people we talked to. The campground is near the Colorado River making the mosquito issue worse. We can not eat outside if the RV for dinner or breakfast without bug spray or long pants and long sleeves. On a brighter note the area is amazing. I highly recommend hiking the Fiery Furnace hike in Arches NP if you are physically able. It is a very challenging hike with lots of rock scrambling. Great fun for the kids. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Friendly, helpful staff. Spacious lanes to maneuver your RV. Shaded spots, gravel level pads, gravel roads. On the expensive side, but nice park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is very well maintained and beautiful. We loved all the activities that they have for kids. They have a giant chess and checkers boards, putting green, playground and pool. The sites were nice and level and fit our motorhome and car. The employees were very friendly and also helped us book tours in the area. We would recommend this campground to our friends and family. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Easy access from the highway and staff very friendly. They have gates with security card access to keep unauthorized people out of the park. We had an end pull through so no neighbor on our door side. Nice grass area with tree, BBQ and table. However, your neighbor is close. If you don't get an end space, you share the grass space with your neighbor. It was a very clean park, Wi-Fi with no problems, and was close to Arches National Park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Sites are not long enough, you cannot park your truck on your site. We also had a little trouble getting into the site, we noticed others had problems too. It says big rig friendly, NOT SO. We like more space!!! Also the Hwy is very loud, all day and early AM. Would stay at a different park next time. They do have nice restrooms and the laundry room has lots of washers and dryers, commercial size. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Choose your site carefully for this park. The site I selected was ample for my 40' motorhome, 2 slides, and Honda CRV behind it. I had one of the Premium sites. My site was not side by side, but many were. While I had no trouble pulling into my site, it can be an issue when two large rigs share a site. If you want spacious, try another park. Cable was excellent, WiFi worked well, I was at the furthest part of the park. While the travel surface was gravel, I stepped out onto a cement walkway with grass and a picnic table, under a large shade tree. I had a site that did not affect satellite reception, but I can see where it could be a problem. On the other hand the cable has so many channels, I used it a lot. Nice big Spa to relax in, didn't use the pool. Water pressure was very high, a regulator should be used to prevent damage to plumbing. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The advertisement of “large, pull-through sites” is a bit misleading. Our 25-foot travel trailer, with the three-quarter ton crew-cab tow vehicle parked behind it, barely fit into the pull-through. The sites are dirty gravel – basically, dirt with sparse gravel and not level. Sites are also very close together with the grassy area (complete with two picnic tables) shared with your neighbor, since the pull-throughs are entered in an alternating fashion (ie, not lined up in the same direction). There are nice, mature shade trees throughout most of the park, at least for our area. Security seems a little overboard (gate card to enter, and automatic gate to leave), but we really can’t fault it. It’s not clear how visitors would be handled (for example, if one had relatives in town), so this should be clarified with management before reserving a site if this is important. The location is good, as it is close to town and the two national parks (Arches and Canyonlands). The park is close to the highway and there is some noise, but not bad. Cable TV was excellent – probably the largest selection of channels we’ve encountered. WiFi is good when you can log in (the authentication process limits the number of users). Showers and restrooms were clean, but nothing special. We camped 3 nights in a 25-foot travel trailer with no pets. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice park, but the security is a little over the top. Feels like you are in a high crime area with the fences and security system to get in and out of the park. I didn't like that they wrote down my credit card number to keep, in case you didn't turn back in your security access card. The charge for not returning the access card is $20. Sites were shaded but not large enough to park your tow vehicle so you had to park it away from your site. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Big Rig Owners Beware! When we made reservations for 2 nights we indicated that we wanted a site, without trees (Sat dish) for a 45' motorhome. The site that was assigned to us was treeless but because of the rocks and site angle we were unable to swing into the site. After further inspection of all of the sites without trees we realized that the only way for a large motorhome to get into these sites was to back in, if possible. Because there was a road opposite our site we were able to back into the site. Afterwards I tried to explain to the owner that we should have been told that our assigned site was not a pull through for a motorhome of our size. After a long, hot day of travel it would be nice to be told exactly how to approach your site to make entry easy and without mishap. We spent the rest of the afternoon watching other large rigs encounter similar problems. Big Rig sites is not true for this campground. The advertised Wifi was unavailable and the owners not the least bit friendly or helpful. I definitely would not return to this park and I would not recommend it to anyone especially big rig owners. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very disappointed in the campground. One directory said mostly paved. Well the only paved area is the entry way by the office. The rest of the campground is very, very dusty gravel. Came in with a nice clean motorhome and left with my coach and motorcycle covered with dust. My reservation said I would have a 60 ft pull through full hookup so I could bring my 40'DP in with motorcycle trailer on back. Pull throughs are side by side hookups. The RV next to me was a 43'DP with car in front and in the rear. No way to turn RV into space much less RV and trailer. I have more turning radius at my house for a car than they do for a 40'DP into their pull throughs. Called office and requested one of the other many sites open that I could pull into with ease. No, they were reserved for other guest. They said they would come down to site and see what was going on. They left me in 108 degree heat waiting and had to call back. A non-friendly gentleman showed up to see what was going on. No one was home in adjacent RV to move the car parked in way. I was told if you can't get the motorhome in there some way, we will give you a refund and you can leave, that's your only option. I was wondering why I wanted to pay extra money for a pull through when I can't pull through. So I dropped the motorcycle trailer. Had to go around to other side of park and back into the campsite, then pull my trailer up to motorhome and rehook. I had decided to stay the night since it was too much hassle to hunt up another campground that late. So I went to the office immediately after getting setup, and requested a refund for the remaining days I had paid for since there was no way I wanted to stay at this dust pit with such unfriendly staff. They told me that they did not give refunds on unused days. After much hassle, he finally decided to give me a refund on unused days but then he said he would have to charge me a $10 fee for making a credit card refund. I just about lost it at that point. I will never come back to this campground again. If I knew any of my employees were so rude and so unhelpful to my customers as the staff here was to me, I would fire them on the spot. This is not just my opinion. I had 3 other guest come up to me and tell me how rude and unhelpful they were to them also. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If you want security, this is the park for you. It was clean and shady, but still enough room for a taller rig. Sites are small and side by side. There are a lot of signs and rules, but so-many people still need to be reminded about campground etiquette. Roads get narrow to sites when fifth wheel pickups overhang and crowd the road, it does take finesse to maneuver a 45' coach around them. If you desire quiet, forget it...this is a jeep and quad park, expect work on vehicles for play the next day. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very close to the highway, very loud. As the other reviews say, not the most friendly mgmt. I definitely would not stay here if you're looking for a quiet campground. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Pleasant front desk and clean, gated park. Sites very close to each other. Only real issue was the incredibly busy highway literally on-top of this RV park; noisy and a challenge for larger rigs to ease into and out-of traffic to enter campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Our family of 4 LOVED this campground. There are tons of activities for the kids. (Putting green, giant chess and checkers, horseshoes, tetherball and a pool) The campground was not crowded, and all the campers were spaced apart which allowed for privacy instead of packing us all together in one area. It may not be that nice when it is full. We enjoyed being so close to Arches National Park. (Go in the spring instead of the heat of summer!)The restrooms/showers were spotless every day of our stay. This will be our campground of choice whenever we are in Moab. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed here for 3 days and thought it was a very nice campground. It was clean and safe and gated for added safety. Arches National Park and Canyonlands were nearby. If we ever get back to Moab, this is the RV park for us. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This wasn't our first visit and we returned after being unimpressed with two other RV parks in the area. This park is well-organized, maintained, and kept up. Although the current WiFi signal did not reach my RV parked in the last row (next to a vacant lot giving an unobstructed view of the mountains), they have plans to improve that situation. The pull thru sites have side-by-side hook-ups so you may have a very close neighbor if/when slides are out. The Management staff's willingness to enforce park rules can be a good thing if your neighbor has failed to use a rubber doughnut on his sewer. We won't return to one of the other competitors park's because we were next to a camper who threaded his sewer hose down the pipe and blocked up the system. Luckily we were just leaving as the mess was being assessed by the unhappy camphost and camper. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had a wonderful time at this campground, the kids loved the pool,chess and all the activities. We did a lot of ATV riding and loved that the trails were not to far from this campground. Its a good basecamp to visit all the National Parks in the area. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Did not notice to many rules. Lots of trees, very nice and friendly staff. One of the best parks we have ever stayed at. We were on a motorcycle pulling a popup camper, a friend met us there in his van and parked in our site, they only charged him $5.00. Defiantly will stay again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
As others have reported, there are many many signs. Do this. Don't do that. But the staff was pleasant and the campground is run with precision. Automatic gates control vehicle traffic, which is good for security, but return your access card or they charge $20 to replace it. All that not withstanding, it is a wondeful park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice clean Park, but management was rude and too many rules!! All we saw were signs telling you what not to do and not one saying have a nice stay!! Dogs are not really welcome, no matter what they say! We drove in and caught the manager standing
on his golf cart trying to see into our MH!!! Granted, it is clean and looks nice, but the overbearing rules rude managment make your stay less than pleasant. We would never stay there again for any reason. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I agree with most of what has been said above. The campground is one of the best
maintained and has one of the best on-site recreational packages that I have come across (the giant chess and checkers are a hoot). That said, bring bug spray. Being right on the Colorado River (and its adjacent marsh) results in lots of big, hungry skeeters on warm summer evenings. Also, don't break (or even think of bending) any of the rules that the owner lays out in excruciating detail at check-in. I guess that it takes a certain mindset to build and maintain a facility that is this nice. Unfortunately, that mindset also thinks customers are potential vandals that need to be carefully monitored. This got more than a little intrusive and we (2 adults and a 9 yo girl) where very well behaved. Were it not for this attitude, I would have rated this facility a 9. Lose the bugs and it would be a 10. 5th wheel - June 2004 We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice campground, friendly staff, bathrooms were immaculate, secure campground. Kids had fun at pool and with games. Small dog run area. Nice open area around campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a well cared for park. It's 3 minutes from town and very near the Colorado river. The staff is friendly & helpful. They have a great spa & pool (not many parks in Moab even have a pool). Overall a very
positive experience. We camped here in a camper.

This is a must when staying in the area. The owners are friendly and helpful. We were given brochures, maps and even menus from the area when we checked in. There is a small giftshop with good pricing. The entire campground was immaculately maintained especially the restrooms. The sites are close together but level and shaded. I loved this park! We camped here in a camper.

The nicest one in Moab. Everything is new, nice grass. They don't seem to allow large dogs, little ones are OK. Don't like the side by side hookups but they're large, plenty of room for slideouts. Nice pool. We camped here in a camper.
This is a very basic park without a lot of extra amenities. The rate is based on Camp Club USA discount. The office staff are very nice. The sites are mostly pull-throughs, but they are pretty short, so you would need to park your tow sideways. The included cable TV is nice, as there is not much to do after dark. During the day, Arches and Canyonlands National Parks are close by. There are also several petroglyphs and other attractions, but most of them are not well marked. If you are willing to drive a couple of hours, Hovenweep and Natural Bridges National Monuments are somewhat nearby. The campground is off the main highway, so it is very peaceful and quiet. I would stay here again if I were in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice park. We stayed a week. Clean, well kept. Good shade with room for satellite reception. Gave them a 9 based on the PPA rate of $16/night. Others in Moab are twice the cost and not much better. We will stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The office staff were nice. The laundry room has 2 washers and 2 dryers so if you have a lot of laundry wait for another campground. Spaces are tight. We were woke up at 6:30 in the morning by our next door neighbors cranking up their diesels and 4 wheelers getting ready to leave. There were alot of open spaces where the campers could have been spread out instead of bunched together. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We camped here with passport and if you want 30 amp it is 2.00 cheaper. It was 17.00 and change, but I put 18. as the cost. They have an older section which has smaller sites but more trees so you can get a little shade. The newer section is better for larger rigs. This is the second time we have camped here and both times we have found everyone who works in the office to be super nice and helpful. The restrooms and laundry are very clean. I would recommend this to anyone coming to Moab. It is a little out of town, but that did not bother us. If you have been to Utah, you know that most sites are just gravel and it is windy and dry out here. I give it a 9 because I like it. Someone who wants a lot of concrete and grass and trees may not agree...but this is Utah. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park gets a 10 for scenery and views. Location is away from the major highways so it is quiet. The sites are gravel and some are level and some are not (ours was) but I saw many rigs with leveling equipment...some class A's had the front wheels off the ground to get their rigs level. Sites are fairly short and roads are gravel and narrow. However, there were quite a few very large rigs there. Cable TV has 70 channels, however the Wifi is rather slow...but it is free. Our rate is based on a 50% discount through Camp Club America plus $1.00 surcharge to use our air conditioning. This park has the basics and is a good place to use as a base to see Arches NP and Canyonlands NP. Given the low price we paid, we are satisfied with this park and would stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great park for base camp as we did to visit Arches and Canyonlands NP. Golf course is only a short drive away. Only draw back was only 2 washers and dryers so had to o to town to do wash. Dusty, but so is the rest of Moab. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great park, sandy but all parks are this way in Moab. Used Camp Club USA and paid halve price. 50 amp service available and can accommodate big rigs. People are very nice and hope to stay here again as we used this as our base for 4 wheel Jeeping. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park is dusty, but so are most of the parks in this area. Rate is for Passport plus $2 per night for 50amp. This is by far the quietest spot in Moab. Off the highway so very little road noise. Power and water good. Staff friendly. Not easy to manouver with big rig but can be done. WiFi worked ok for us but we were close to office. Would stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park suffers from massive deferred maintenance. Remnants of landscaping and patches of grass remain but are being replaced by weeds (with stickers) and dirt. A few sites have some shade. Roads and pads are deep sand and dirt and heavily rutted, and there can be a lot of dust in the air. Amenities are: bathrooms with showers (which need to be razed and rebuilt), a laundry, a small book exchange, a shaded common picnic area, cable TV, and free wi-fi. The staff was always friendly and helpful. Sites don't have picnic tables, grills, or fire pits. That said, we stayed here a month because it met our minimal needs and the price is right for we Passport America members ($15.50 tax included for 30-amp). We camped here in a Motorhome.
Rate reflects Passport America discount. If you're not into the extra amenities (pool, store, putt-putt, play area), but just a very good place to park and camp then this is the place to go. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Power is good, water is good and spaces are not overly crowded. There were trees between spaces, along with picnic tables. There is also grass between most spaces, which is kind of rare in this part of the country. You're parking on sand & rock, but it's hard pack desert floor and even when it rains, it drains fast and isn't much of a problem. Far enough off of the highway to miss all of the noise that some of the other RV parks have. Bathrooms and laundry were very clean and they also have a book exchange. Very quiet and comfortable park while visiting all of the sights around Moab. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park was was nothing special but was ok for the 4 nights we spent here we used our PA card and paid $18 for a 50 amp site. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here for 5 days. The lady who runs the park was very nice. The park is misleading when you first drive up to the entrance. But inside the park is very nice. We had such a view of the La Sal Mountains that we didn't even notice the drilling trucks in the next lot from us. We spent most of our time at the Canyonlands & Arches. We used our passport america discount. At the stables we didn't see one horse the whole time we came in and out of the park. The park is out of the downtown busyness. Golf course near by. It is consider in the Industrial park of town, but there are restaurants and gas stations close by. It's between the Aches and Canyonland entrances. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice and clean park. Every space has lawn, a tree and a picnic table. The managers are eager to please. We are Passport America members so got 50% off their regular rates. We will return to this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If you only need to park the RV and tour the area, you won't go wrong. Does have wifi and cable. The park is quiet but no atmosphere. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed here last summer with a Happy Camper discount rate. This year we no longer had that membership so paid the regular rate less Good Sam Discount. The owner/manager is very nice. The sites are tight for our 40 ft. motor home. We are near the Arena where a rodeo is to take place the next three days so there is some livestock corralled but flies aren't a problem for us. We might try another RV park in town because some look more inviting and their rates are about the same as here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had to move to a non-sewer site over the Memorial holiday weekend but that was OK. Nice place, beautiful area but illness took some of the fun away. We have been here before and would gladly come back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is a good value since it accepts Passport America with no restrictions. The other park in the area that accepts Passport America will not accept it on the weekends, and quite frankly, didn’t look too much better than this park for double the price. We stayed here for one week. As others have mentioned, the site and parking are very tight. The owner tries to accommodate everyone and as a result, often puts RVs in spots that are way too small making maneuvering around the parking lot difficult. However, despite being sandwiched together, the park was very quiet. No noise from other travelers or from the highway. There are a couple of long-term residents but that is not an issue for me. There are two washers and two dryers onsite but if you don’t like them, you can head downtown to the laundromat. Dust and windstorms seem to be a problem in this area and you should expect your rig will get dusty and dirty since the park is gravel and dirt and is next to a stable. We did not experience any odors from the stable next door since it is still cool outside. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park only has about 3 things going for it. 1) The staff is friendly, 2) Water pressure was phenomenal, 3)With the Camp Club USA membership the fee was truly half price, $14.50/night. From there it is all down hill. The biggest problem is that the sites are much too small for most rigs over 30'. We saw rigs with their rear ends extending into the aisles behind them to the extent that it made the aisle useless for anything to get through but an ATV. Most rigs had to back out of their spots, down the aisle and around a corner to get out. A harrowing maneuver if you are driving a long rig or worse a 5er or trailer! There is just no excuse for this. The laundry consisted of 2 washers and 2 dryers, no where near enough for a park this big. If the winds are blowing this park is out in the open with no real protection from blowing dust, provided by the adjacent horse arena and stables. We had to rush to close the windows as we were enveloped by a dust storm on one evening and spent hours cleaning up our motorhome afterwards. Forget using an awning the winds make it prohibitive. If the wind isn't blowing then the flys are horrible. I don't know their origin but we spent too much time trying to rid our rig of the flys and left us praying for more wind or rain! There are "permanent" RVs in the park, a condition I really don't like but most of the residents kept their "yards" organized and clean. One such resident was too eager to remove our laundry from the washer even though we were only about 2 minutes behind it's shutoff time. I really don't like people handling our laundry, thank you very much!!! Unlike an earlier reviewer we found the wireless internet to work well even in the outer row however with low signal strength. If it isn't working well it is either because of too many users at any given time or the equipment of the individual, a condition we had ourselves in other parks until we upgraded to better equipment. We chose this park only because of the 1/2 price for the Campclub USA membership but the small sites, wind and flys will keep us from coming back. We will be more than happy to pay full price for a more comfortable site in town on our next visit to Moab. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a Passport America park and is a good value for the price. Off the highway & quiet, you have to drive on dirt roads through a stable area to get to the RV area. All dirt road/sites, fairly level with a grass island. Good 50A power was a plus since it was 102 degrees. Sites are a tad short for a 40' and tow but the egress is all in the same direction so it doesn't pose much of a problem. Some permanent campers but is was quiet and the lady in the office was very friendly and helpful. A good, inexpensive place to spend the night or base your visit to the Moab area. Nothing to do for kids - too hot outside, anyway. We'd stop here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park off the highway a little south of town. Close to national parks. Friendly staff. Would stay at park again. No Pool and it was hot, 101. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This campground is convenient to Moab and Arches National Park and inexpensive. It has the necessities but was nothing special. The sites are short as mentioned. The WiFi worked at our site but I saw several people carrying their laptops up to the office to use. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great place to stop and see Moab! Beautiful view of terrain and mountains. Mostly pull through spaces with pretty good room although not real long. We did get our 40 foot 5er and dually long bed truck in. Friendly on-site owners. Horses nearby, so occasional horse smells, but not bad. No pool, but nice quiet park far away from highway noise. We'll be back! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very courteous and knowledgeable staff, level but unpaved site. Wifi worked well at our location which was a pull-through. Some horses nearby, as expected from park name, although no problem or smell noted. Nice view of Moab terrain and reasonably close to town on back street that parallels main route through area. Will definitely stay there again when we can as we believe it to be an excellent value with Passport America discount. Recommend reservations as can be full during off-road season! We camped here in a Motorhome.
The staff was very friendly and accomodating. We orginally wanted a 7 night reservation, but the could only give us 5 nights due to a big event. After a couple nights they had a cancelation and gave us 3 more nights. This was great as we were using Passport America discount and it was good for all 8 nights during the high season and during a huge event in Moab. The full price ($29) was a bit high for what you get, but since the city was sold out I'm not complaining at all. Not every big rig will fit every site. We had to park our 34' 5th wheel at an angle to fit into our space. The bathrooms are small so take your shower in your RV. The WiFi worked well from our space. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Okay as an overnight stop. I think if we had horses this would be a great place to stop. All we wanted was electric and a safe place to stop overnight. Did go into town to the Moab Brewery, great fish and chips and $2 pints. Pretty nice beer too. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We thought this was quite a bargain using Passport America. It was $13.08/night with tax. The shower/restroom was dated but clean. The laundry was also clean. Our site, 22, was an end site about 30' wide and 35' long. It has trees and grass on both sides and a picnic table. I noticed some sites did not have a table. We hit level spots so no boards were required. The 8 big rig sites are just limestone with hook ups. Not as nice as the main area. We were originally suppose to go into site 20. But the nice lady at the desk said we couldn't get WiFi from there. When I said I liked WiFi at the rig, she changed our site. The place wasn't full so that was no problem. But keep in mind WiFi can't be gotten at all sites. Some sites are also much shorter than ours. The views to the southwest, out our back window, were of the red cliffs. To the east we could see the snow covered La Sal mountains. Great views. There were trees scattered around the property. We initially signed up for 5 days but ended up adding 2 more. We like this place and would certainly stay there again. This is an RV park, not a resort. But we certainly liked it. We would definitely stay here again. I suggest reservations during high season. The lady said they were turning people away up until early October. There is a restaurant and fuel within a mile on Rt 191. I didn't see any signs that one could rent a horse. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a no frills campground with dirt roads and dirt sites. There is very little grass and no good place to walk a dog. The pull-through sites at the front are next to the stables so there is some odor at times. There are no trees at these sites, but there is plenty of room for big rigs and toads. Because of the Passport America price we would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our stay here while touring the Moab area. The Passport America/weekly rate of $14 (including taxes) per night makes this an outstanding value. It is a "no frills" campground, but that is exactly what we look for--we tour during the day and just want a campground that is clean, secure and has good hookups. The owner was also very helpful and friendly. Would not hesitate to stay here again--just don't look for swimming pools, recreation areas, etc. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We arrived quite late, and office was still open awaiting late arriving reservations! Despite the fact she had no space available the first night, she went out of her way to accomodate us, placing us in a "dry camp" area, but allowed us to hook into 50 amp service at an adjoining site (still only charged us $6 "dry camp" fee the first night. ) Rules are pretty "laid-back", but we found it to be quiet despite most of the residents were "off-road" enthusiasts. Primarily a Passport America campground, dirt roads and sites, but we had plenty of room for slides and toad. Beautiful views of mountains (snow capped and rock), and well off road with large horse arena next door. We will stay again. 37' motorhome with toad. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Yes, it is off the road, but in a neighborhood. It is usually crowded and noisy. Not kept up very well. No one to help you to your site if you get in late. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Park is on the edge of town, and positioned far enough from the highway to reduce noise levels. There is a permanent/owned site section to the park that has concrete pads and separate service locations, but the transient sites are also long and level, though gravel. Tents and group camps are permitted here, and were being used to stage rafting trips, but are somewhat separate from the RV sites and noise level was not objectionable. WiFi is free, though passworded. Signal strength and actual bandwidth were very good. The only oddity was very short office hours - closed at 5PM. There is a site labelled as campground host, who we never saw. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed in this park for 3 nights while we were in the Moab area. The park overall is a nice park. It has paved lot sites available for sale and these are exclusively for those who have bought them which creates an elitist atmosphere. Short termers are not allowed to use their facilities. There are few trees that are mature which makes for hot days and little shade. The staff are cordial, but overall, the park is somewhat overrated, but clean. We would probably stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great big rig park just outside of Moab. No shade but nice views, clean sites and bathrooms. One reviewer mentioned the lack of landscaping. That's no big deal as the views up are far better then the views down. Nice pool and showers. Will definitely stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The concrete pad in the "Premium" section was spacious but that is as far as it went. Other than the landscaping around Koi Pond, there was nothing but weeds and dirt. The only landscaped site was one of the resort's owners. Things are in disrepair. In the tent area one pavilion is laying on the ground. The fence near the dumpster was falling over. The barnyard odors were not pleasant. The view from the back row of "Premium" sites is a gravel vehicle storage lot. It may be the best place to camp in Moab but it has a long way to go to be a luxury resort. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park thinks highly of itself. It states "beautiful landscaping." With the exception of one small area, there IS no landscaping.....nothing but dirt and weeds. We stayed in the Premium Section. The rest of the park, which you see when you enter looks like Tobacco Road. There isn't much of a choice in Moab (which is surprising), but to call this a "Luxury Resort" is an overstatement. All in all, we were very disappointed. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is an older park with the great new addition of 36 premium sites, pool, hot tub, and bath facilities. All comments relate to the new premium sites where we stayed. Large concrete paved pads with conveniently located utilities. Located a short distance off the main highway so traffic noise is not a problem like in other Moab parks. Bathrooms were immaculate and laundry facilities sufficient. Only complaint to offer is related to Wi-Fi signal which was not reliable during our stay. Owners had technicians on site to repair Wi-Fi and it was better during the final few days of our stay. We like this park, can recommend it and will definitely stay here again. Best park in the Moab area and is very suitable for big rigs. Hope owners can get the Wi-Fi working properly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The view is fabulous. It's close enough to town to be convenient, but far enough away to be quiet. It is within five miles of Arches National Park. When we first arrived, I was disappointed in our space because they had put us right by the bathroom and I had made my reservation in January. But when we questioned it, they moved us right away to the spot of our choice. Then we really drove them crazy by deciding we'd really rather have another spot, and they let us move again. The staff was very friendly, the bathrooms were very clean and plenty of hot water. The sites were a little close together, but no worse than most commercial parks. I would stay there again for sure. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The owners and staff are very very friendly folks. They are making big improvements to the park but have a long way to go. None of the parks in Moab are beautiful or outstanding but maybe with the improvements to this one someday they may achieve that. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice park in the process of becoming an owner type park (which won't happen soon). Nice wide, concrete apron type site with dirt alongside (will be developed someday) but no shade. Easy access and exit, nice pool and fenced dog run in the southwest corner. When in the area we will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The pull throughs were long and wide. Nice grass, but there were not enough trees. The park was set back from the hiway so there was minimal noise. We felt it was a great base from which to see the area. We felt very at home because we tow a Jeep Wrangler. Moab is serious Jeep country...for good reason. The speed limit is strictly enforced at 5MPH which we didn't mind. There a horse pasture next door and it was nice that the very friendly horses came to visit. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park near the Arches National Park. Free Wi-Fi and cable. Long sites mostly pull-thrus. We would stay here again if in the area. They are not a Good Sam park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a pretty good park where we may stay again. We had a pull-thru on the back row which bordered a horse pasture. It was fun to watch the horses grazing, some of which were quite tame. The park was tidy and clean, with some fancy seasonal sites at the far end. The side-by-side pull-thrus are kind of close, but we've been in worse. There are two ponds, one of which is available for swimming. The check-in procedure was slow and inefficient (a long line of people waiting to check in while the office staff finished their lunch at 2:00 p.m.). We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a campground, not a resort, despite what it's name indicates. It is in the process of an ambitious upgrade that will take some time and effort, but in the meantime, the primary portion of the camping area is OK. The sites are just wide and long enough to handle a 40' MH and TOAD and reasonably level. This being Moab, the views are incredible. Staff seemed friendly and helpful. The area we parked could use some TLC but that may be going by the wayside as the "high dollar" section is being built. If it were me in charge, I'd try to make sure the entry area - where most of the campers are - on the way to the lots that are for sale was upgraded and kept neat and clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good park. Gravel pad (level), easy pull thru (37 foot fifth wheel), plenty of grass for dogs. Centrally located to area attractions; far enough off the highway so you don't hear the traffic. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is in the process of converting to an ownership park. The new section, in the back, is currently ownership sites, but are available for nightly rentals. They are wide, with concrete pads. They are working on the landscaping, but currently, it is mostly dirt in this section. The pool is being built, but not done yet. There is a swimming pond. The older section, in front, has smaller sites but still worked OK with a 40 ft. motorhome with four slides. There are very pretty flowering trees in this section, but not really big enough to provide shade. It is set back from the road more than most of the neighboring RV parks, so it is nice and quiet. It is very convenient to both Moab and Arches NP. It is very clean and well-maintained; I would definably stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Really nice park. Camped in the new section, which had no trees, etc. and was on gravel. But really wide sites, with great views of surrounding mountains. Friendly office staff, helped us plan our activities. Started out for one night, ending up spending five nights. Will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Camped in 45 foot motorhome. The interior roads and sites are gravel with grass on some sites. Small trees allowed satellite TV access, but little shade. Park located north of Moab with convenient access of US191. Park was nearby to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks and Dead Horse State Park. The office staff was very friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were able to relocate to a shady spot after the first day, there are not many shade areas that work for both morning and afternoon sun. The staff was very nice and the swimming pond was refreshing. There were not a lot of spaces taken on the weekend that we stayed here. This looks like it will be very nice when the work is completed. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our stay and the view at this park...the management was most helpful and pleasant.Water pressure is very high so bring a regulator. Very quiet and clean we would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is in the process of being converted to a "sites for sale resort". The construction taking place is quite noisy during the day as well as the dust. There is nothing for kids to do here. There is a swim hole but it is quite dirty. The owners and staff are quite friendly and always willing to assist you. Be warned, there is a strict 5 mph speed limit in the park and if you violate it, be prepared to be kicked out of the park. I watched this happen twice during my stay at the park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park - grass between sites which is unusual in Moab. Roads were paved which kept dust down. Sites were spacious but did slope a bit. No pool but you can swim in a pond. Handy to town and attractions. WiFi was good and cable exceptional in selection. Speed limit is only 5 mph which is a little low! Hope that manager doesn't catch me. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
My family came here for a nice holiday getaway.Sites were adequate,and camp was close to town. We were driving into the camp our second day and I was talking to my wife and went slightly over the speed limit. To my suprise the manager came to my truck and began yelling at me in front of my kids and wife as if I were a small child. He threatened to kick me out of the park. I have never met a more immature man. I would have gladly slowed down, and I will never return to this park with this type of management. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice park, well maintained & clean. Staff is very friendly. We were in site #36 which is on an end & has more space than some other sites. Each site has some grass, except for a new area on the end of the park which is gravel. Those sites are 40ft x 80ft and are currently being sold as permanent, owned sites. Nice view from the park. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is our first time traveling in an RV. One of the nicer RV parks we stayed in. The parking is still too close but I guess that's just the way it is in RV parks. The view of the portal is beautiful. They also have a large grassy area that is used for dry camping. Even though the RV park was full every night the grassy area usually only had a couple of RVs in it. We also used this area to give our dog a little exercise. Next time we visit Moab we will stay here again. The park is situated far enough off the highway that you get little or no highway noise. A big plus for us. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The sites are pull through and level. Wifi was slow, but we were a long ways from the office and we were just glad it worked. The staff is friendly and helpful although when we were there staff was only in office 2 hours in the am and 3 hours in the pm. The views are beautiful and the location is only one mile from Moab and very close to the Arches National Park. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great location in Moab. Clean park. Good roads. Clean restrooms and showers. They have a great swimming pond that gets its water from the overflow of the local municipal water supply. Water is cool, swimming dock has ladder. It was a welcome relief from the 105 degree plus temperature. A couple odd things. Flies. Lots of house flies and the strong smell of manure from the field next door. Maybe all of Moab has them, but we had a lot of flies at the picnic table and in our camper. No mosquitos, but lots of flies. Office hours were limited due to a "shortage of workers" as a note explained on the office door. It looked like other campgrounds in the area had more trees but also were way more packed in. Without the flies and with more shade, this place would be a 10. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Paved interior roads, gravel sites. Sites are level but close together. I agree with the previous reviewer about visitors with jeeps. Friendly staff, nice laundry, cleam showers, strong Wi-Fi signal throughout the park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Sites are close together and very few trees The sites are mostly gravel mixed with weeds. Moab gets a lot of visitors with jeeps, which is fine but when they're allowed to turn there RV site into a repair garage it gives the park a very trashy look and the smell of gasoline is unpleasant. I saw numerous oil spills which the owners attempted to soak up with kitty litter, what a mess! The front office folks are very nice, laundry room very clean and WiFi service excellent but overall this park needs some maintenance and needs to set some rules regarding automotive repairs at the sites. We'll stay at one of the other nicer parks in the area next time. We camped in a motorhome. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not really much to do IN the park, however, you come to Moab for Moab. The scenery was spectacular! Lots of close national parks & attractions. Definitely a MUST DO! We camped here in a Motorhome.
We came through Moab heading north from Florida and needed a place to stay to visit Arches NP, so we picked this Good Sam park from Trailer Life. It was a Jeep/Off-Road weekend - lots of people in Moab. No sites available with electric or water so we took a spot in a field for only $20 and reserved for the next day a full-hookup site for $32. When asked about the discrepancy between Trailer Life prices and what they charged, they said it was an "event" weekend. I asked them why they didn't spell this out in Trailer Life - no answer. I hate it when people gouge you like this. We will be sure to never stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Level gravel sites between nice patches of grass. (Another review said grassy areas were
unkempt, but we saw no evidence of anything but a beautifully maintained RV park.) Beautiful panoramic views from entire park. Far enough off Highway 191 that there is virtually no road noise. People in the office could not be more helpful or pleasant to deal with. Close to Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park, a mile or so outside of Moab proper. Great little park. Will definitely come back if we're in this area again. (We drove by several other RV parks in and around Moab, and none looked even close to as nice as this one.) We camped here in a Motorhome.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Wi-Fi transmission not fully operational to every site yet, at the office and near the office a good signal can be received. The scenery is beautiful and Arches and Canyonlands National Parks are just a couple of minutes up the road. Fantastic area and campground. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice enough "base camp" for touring around Moab Area. Spots are large enough for "Big Rigs" without danger of hitting tree limbs. Dirt pads that are uneven and unkempt grass areas. Nice table and BBQ. Paved roads. Managers were very helpful and personable. Took a lot of their time to explain areas to see around Moab. OK, overall, and I'd stay again if in area with my 42 footer. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park in a very pretty setting. We were told that the pond on the property was no good
for fishing. Apparently the fish were determined to have a disease or something. You can still swim in it, but we passed. Very close to Arches entrance. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice campground on the north edge of Moab. Limited shade, but all sites are grassed and well maintained. Very friendly staff, easy to get into, and convenient to town without the higheway noise. We camped here in a camper.

There are many rv parks in this area but this one is the only one with grass at each site. The rest have dirt. This one also has beautiful views from every angle. Also near the Colorado River - we saw deer roaming while at our site. There are a few cabins also. All sites had gravel pads and level. Very near Arches and the Canyonlands. Would highly recommend this campground when in the area. Very nice owners. We camped here in a camper.

This was the second time we stayed at Portal. It's only minutes to Arches and Canyonlands Nat'l Parks. It is a wonderful family park with friendly people. Our niece became friends with the owners' daughters and had a great time. The view of the Portal and other rock formations surrounding the area is magnificent. Not much shade because it's a relatively new park. All sites are pull thrus, level with plenty of grass. Expect some 100+ degree days in summer though. Moab is a neat little town. Portal is about 1-2 miles from downtown. We camped here in a camper.
Rate includes a one time $5 charge for having a 9 pound Maltese dog. This is a great place for adults (although kids are allowed). Drive and sites are all gravel and level. Lots of cottonwood trees provide shade for every site. There is an 8 foot berm between you and the Colorado river. You can walk next door for Colorado river cruises. Laundry has $2.50 wash and $1.00 dry. Bad: Cottonwood trees, mosquitoes. Good: Fast WiFi, good cable, cottonwood tree shade, walk on the banks of the Colorado River, no pool, no playground, no fire rings. Grass at every site. All sites level. Picnic table at every site. Very close to Arches National Park. Close to city of Moab for shopping. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is 1.5 miles from the Arches National Park. Good location, you can easily ride your bike to the Arches if you are energetic. However, this RV park is best suited for Campers, Travel Trailers, and smaller Class C's (in addition to tents). Although I saw a few larger Class A's here, it's a tight fit for them. The "back-ins" are best for campers. I have a 32 foot Class C with a carrier on the back for my scooter, and the "pull-through" I had was.... well..... let's just say, I PRAYED that no one would "clip" my front end or back end while they were driving in the driving area..... And I also prayed that I could exit my space without "clipping" the truck parked cross-wise in front of the travel trailer next to me! Road noise wasn't bad, but there was "construction noise" early in the morning from a crane that is working on a construction project nearby. There is about five feet width of grass between each space. Enough room for the picnic table that each site had. Cable was great, 70 channels (all analog). Wi-Fi worked OK, was a little slow at times. It was free, but it was from Tengo, and you had to work around the initial "sign up for a Tengo account" screen. A little misleading. There is a pay phone in case your cell phone doesn't work. The laundry room is open only between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM. Restrooms/showers were clean. On the outside of the main building is a stainless steel "deep sink" if you need. The rate I am showing is the Good Sam rate without taxes. There was a sign that said "Pets, $5 fee." I mentioned that I had a cat. I was told, "Cats don't count." Well, then the sign should say "Dog fee" not "Pet Fee." We camped here in a Motorhome.
In an area that is not known for RV "resort" parks, this is a good choice. It has a wonderful grassy tent area, at least 10 really cute cabins, and is surrounded by beautiful Moab red rock views. It is well-located to Arches National Park and town. While it is better suited for smaller rigs, there are pull-throughs that easily accommodate 40' motorhomes (ours fit fine). A nice touch: They have daily trash pick-up at your site. In the winter months your satellite will work. However, I would suspect when all the trees grow their leaves you will have to rely on the cable (that's provided). The Colorado Rivers runs adjacent to the park, but the view is blocked by a 6' berm that also serves as a walk-way that is the only area that you are "allowed" to walk your dog. The sites are gravel (level) with a grassy patio area and a table. If you want concrete pads the only place in the area is Portal down the street. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good Sam rate. Sights close together and the hook up for the dump was a stretch for the hose. Wi-Fi pretty good. We could not see the river at all but the sight was very close to Arches State Park. Probably would not go back due to the are of the campground and they could not find our original reservation. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I was also at the Western Class B rally/social. This was a nice park with lots of shade and real grass. The management was exceptionally friendly and helpful! Showers and bathrooms were clean, even though the park was full. Sites were gravel pads with trees and grass surrounding them. I will definitely go back to this park next time that I'm in the Moab area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We are here now for the Western States Class B Rally, an informal gathering of about 40 rigs. The campground is very accommodating and easy for all of us to get together but still have privacy when desired. The location a few miles north of town along the highway so there is some highway noise. A berm protects the walkway along the Colorado river for a nice stroll. Sites are a bit close together but good shade trees and a larger than average separate area for tents. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice campground. It has nice shade trees and the grounds are very well maintained. The sites are a little narrow and only a few are set up for rigs 40 feet and larger. We would stay here again. This is better than most of the other campgrounds in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We wanted to stay in Arches but it was full, so we were able to get in here right away. This is the campground just south of the Arches entrance. Nice shaded sites with the Colorado River along one side and beautiful cliffs all around. Clean bathrooms with hot water. I really appreciated the sinks located outside the washrooms for washing dishes, which also had hot water. When I walked outside at 10 p.m. to visit the washroom, it was pitch dark--so dark I needed a lantern--and very quiet. The only thing I didn't like was that they charge $5 extra for every child 8 and up. Next to Canyonlands At Night boat trip attraction. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed this place a lot. The facilities were clean. The other campers were friendly and fun. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The roads are narrow as are the sites and very few could accommodate a fifth wheel and the tow vehicle. We were on the back row by the berm and wifi didn’t work at that location for us at all. Because of the narrow roads, back-in sites can be difficult to negotiate. Satellite users be warned, there are lots of mature shade trees with little open sky. All the sites were narrow but each had a small strip of grass. The Laundromat was closed and locked at 8:00 PM and you had to have your last load in by 6:30 PM, we found this to be inconvenient. No swimming pool. The location of the park is very convenient to Arches National Park and Moab. We will be staying at a different park the next time we visit the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice park with easy acess for large rigs and mostly level sites. All sites are under nice trees with grass between each site. Wi-fi does not work very well but with some patience you can at least get your e-mails. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Friendly, clean, quiet, WIFI works great. Great views from the edge of the park. A little tight in spots, but overall a good place to stay. We will come and stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The name of the park says it all - Oasis in a desert. What a welcome relief to come back to the park after a day exploring the nearby desert attractions. Clean, well maintained park. Level gravel sites with freshly mowed grassy patio. Many trees - not good for roof top satellite reception but the park has excellent cable TV. Very fast wifi. We are here for a week and would return again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was our 4th year at Moab, but our first time at this CG. The owners and hosts were very friendly and helpful. The CG was clean and well kept. A new and larger entrance road is almost open. They were very dog friendly. Our group consisted of 3 trailers and one motorhome. Some of the sites are tight for big or long rig. They have some very nice long pull throughs, but reservations well in advance are needed for those. The back in sites along the levee are wonderful. A lot of privacy. We will return there. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Shade trees and green grass are a rare find in this area. Overall not very pleased with the campground in general though. No sign at the main entrance and had to pull in a second road. This required a U-turn and unhooking my toad In front of the store. Unsympathetic staff states, "yeah, everybody does that, next time pull in the other road". Bad first impression! Store was new looking and clean inside. The whole area is not much bigger than a football field. Tight would be an understatement. Dusty, gravel roads with pull throughs 25 feet and less apart. Yes, I measured it! NOT big rig friendly and had a hard time getting into one of the larger spaces. WIFI had poor to no signal throughout the camping sites. Unable to get mail after 24 hours of trying. Tent campers had nice grass areas, equally tight but shady. Camping area surrounded on three sides by 8-10 foot high gravel and rock levy and fourth side looks toward a junky, heavy equipment parking area and the highway beyond. A short walk outside the campground and along the Colorado river is beautiful with red rock bluffs surrounding the area. None of the many other campgrounds in the area where full so next time I'll stay elsewhere. To many nicer places available. Thanks. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nightly rate is estimated, we were there for 10 nights so had weekly rate for some of them. Gorgeous thick green grass between sites. Gravel sites and roadways, they say 5mph but dust is a problem. The back in and second row of pull throughs are quite short, we were ok in our 24' fifth wheel but larger rigs would be better off in the first row of pull throughs (32-40). The restrooms & showers were large and clean. Park offers site garbage pickup; you leave your tied garbage bag on the grass at the front of your site before 9am and they pick it up. WiFi worked poorly, they do have an ethernet connection at the office that worked great. The only negative things were where the entry is, very difficult to see before you need to turn off a busy highway; short sites mean people park their extra vehicles in the roadways so hard to get through. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
First off, don't arrive in Moab on a Friday without a reservation. That is how we found ourselves here. Everything else in town was full. This is a very old, dusty, stinky, close, campground. To call it an RV park is a misnomer. Most campers are tenters with bikes, jeeps, and fourwheelers. The sites are approximately 4 feet apart. They allow campfires which are left smoldering at night and make sleeping without the windows closed and the AC on impossible. Did I mention AC? The power fluctuates with each RV joining the loop and you have to decide which is the worse, smelling the various odors while you try to sleep, or burn up the compressor on your AC. The restrooms/showers smelled! The staff were nice folks and the wi-fi worked only at the office. Would only stay here aqain if it was the last resort. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice people but the park is old and in much need of updating. Only 30 amp service and mine did not work. I had to tie in to the neighbor site to get power. Dirt and dusty interior roads. Wi-Fi free but would work only next to the office. Much better parks close by. I will not return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed in a camping cabin but left after 1 night because it was too noisy and dirty/dusty (our next door neighbors partied most of the night and got very obnoxious and everywhere you were it was busy and noisy). The cabins are not the typical KOA kind, they were made out of plywood with sad interior and look like they had never been cleaned, my allergies kicked in as soon as I went in. Also the bathrooms were in need of cleaning and repair and didn't seem to be gender specific (young adult men and women went in whatever side they pleased). The staff was very friendly and the hot tub/pool was nice but it was just wasn't pleasant. This campground is 1 mile from Moab, off the main road but not much road noise and had shade. We moved to Canyonlands campground (in town) and was very satisfied . We camped here in a Campground Cabin.
This wasn't one of the best we camped at on our tour of the West, but certainly we've seen a lot worse. The facilities were clean and the staff friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is not "Big Rig Friendly". It has small sites and the roads are narrow. The park was not very clean' but it appears that they were having some kind of off road type rally. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I have stayed at this park three times in the last two years and plan to stay at least one more before the year is out. It is by far one of the best places to stay in Moab. The staff has always been pleasant and helpful. There is ample parking even if you are pulling a trailer. Lots of shade under mature Cottonwood trees. Able to fill propane bottles on site. Will also make arrangements for the local attractions for free for you. I would have given this campground a 9 or 10 but the restrooms could use a little remodeling and the last time I stayed I could constantly hear the water park across the highways loud speaker. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was a clean & attractive park but I would never stay there again. We called ahead for a reservation and were asked if we had pets. We replied "yes" and were asked what size. We told them the weight; they never mentioned anything else about their pet policy. When we checked in, they made us read a statement regarding the policy and were told that they wanted folks to know ahead of time or else they could opt to move on. Although we thought it was a little restrictive that they didn't want pets pottying on the grass, we chose to stay there since they had a pet area. We are in the habit of cleaning up after our dog and think everyone else should too. However, when I took my dog to the pet area, I was appalled to find nothing but an open field with scrub and sagebrush...not one blade of grass....only rocks and sand. Thank goodness, my pet isn't too particular! We managed, but like another visitor mentioned, felt "watched". My husband and I joked that "the guard was on his rounds again". Not a friendly staff, and folks with pets & children should probably find another spot, if possible. Other amenities were fine. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Our favorite park in Moab. Nice level sites. Good TV, good Wi-Fi. Great views, and not dusty. Beautiful trees and great views from most sites. Our only complaint is that office personnel can be very rude sometimes. Still, we always stay here when in Moab. We would do so again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I have to agree with the other reviewers; I think the Staff at this park is very much on the demanding side, and not much on the understanding side. When checking in, I was repeatedly told that my furry kids (dogs), could only potty in the dog area. This is the area with the full trash cans. Yuk, what a mess. I was told that if the staff saw my dogs potty anywhere besides the dog area i would be asked to leave without a refund. I was made to feel that I was a second class customer because I dared to bring my dogs with me. I talked with several other RV owners who said that the park has new owners (don't know for sure). They said that the management attitude did not exist before. Most said they would not return. Overall the park is nice. I wasn't real crazy about the blowing Cottonwood blooms but that is minor. The Sites were sufficient size, and the hook ups were fine. We did not use the restrooms so can't comment on them. The laundry room was clean, however there were a few people in there just to use the WiFi because the Laundry is next to the Office and they could not get a signal at their site. This was my first time here; it will probably be my last also. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I recently had a horrible experience at the Spanish Trail RV Park & Campground in Moab, and because of this, and because of other reviewers comments, I would like to advise against choosing this as your place of stay. The management team ruined our trip to Moab, and we will never return. If you choose to stay here expect to be treated rudely and be lied to by the staff. They will ruin your vacation. The grounds were okay, though they didn't have horseshoe pits as advertised on their website. The WiFi was only accessible when sitting out front of the office. It didn't reach to our RV, though the managers told us it would. The showers were small and unkempt, don't believe the hype about "Moab's Best Showers", that's not true at all. The garbage cans in the pet area were overflowing with bags of dog-waste and it stunk up the whole RV park. There was a smell of sewage everywhere. When we pointed it out to the management team, they were extremely rude and defensive. Even as a last resort, don't stay here. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Out of all the Recreational Parks we have had the pleasure of attending, this was the worst. The manager (Mrs.)was crabby and more like a Warden to start with. That was the first clue of an unhappy stay! The bathrooms were growing mold, and bugs, and needed a good cleaning. We had to ask to have the doggie garbage cans emptied. The Cottonwood Trees were loaded with blowing cotton and tent caterpillars which were being eaten by birds and of course the birds left their telltale signs all over everything. Finally we were joined there by our daughter and son-in-law with prior permission of the "Warden". After the first nite she claimed we were sub-renting to them and told us to get out. I offered to pay full price for the extra vehicle but she would have nothing to do with it and wanted us out. I believe the circumstances completely confused the poor woman and she didn't know what to do other than run us out! Hope this helps prevent some other poor soul from a sour stay!! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had reservations for a travel trailer, 2 nights, 30 amps. Was told we would be in a shaded pull thru. We got there, checked in and paid 2 nights, and went to our site to find it a BACKWARDS back in, e.g. the hookups were on the wrong side. Also, it was wide open without any tree in sight! Went to office, elderly lady manager said "someone should have told you it was for a nose-in Class C". We asked about the nice shaded pull-thru across the drive and was told it was only for 75 foot rigs. We got a refund and left, went to Canyonlands RV park and enjoyed it! WE DID NOT STAY AT THIS PARK. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed for one month, so the nightly rate is much lower. This is a nice park overall. Clean bathroom, fairly leveled sites and enough room to get in and out with big rig. Our main complaints are the customer service and wi-fi connection. The couple who checked us in was really nice, but when we needed help another day it was a different couple and they weren't really that helpful. It made us feel unwelcome for lack of better description, which I think it is extremely important to have a pleasant staff to service people on vacation, not to mention full timers like us. Wi-fi is truly a hit and miss, we full time and work from our rig, it is essential for us to have reliable wi-fi. They told us we could get it anywhere in the park, not true. They were able to move us to a different location where we could get signal at least. But, their system was not designed to handle high volume use. So have your wi-fi card ready if you need it or you will have to go downtown Moab and sit at one of the wi-fi hotspots. We probably will spend more money next time staying at Portal RV instead. I think the facility in Portal RV is a bit nicer and friendlier staff. PS: We are also big on recycling, with the whole Moab having recycling program available, Spanish Trail did not even have recycling bins is another negative point we decided to give them. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We parked in the 2nd row upfront, with enough room for our big rig and car. Road noise during the day, but didn’t hear any during the night. These are gravel sites with a narrow concrete walkway. My Verizon cell phone worked fine. There is a charge for RV washing. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed two nights here while visiting Arches National Park and other sites in the area. We had hoped to stay at Deadhorse Point State Park, but it was full. This park is clean and neat, but really nothing special. As some others have said there is road noise, but it is not too bad and tapers off significantly at night. It appeared the owners were doing major improvements to the restrooms, but since I did not use them I can't comment on what was going on. The two things we didn't like about this park were: 1. although the owners brag that there is a tree at every site, most of the trees are quite small and don't really provide any shade to speak of, which would be very welcome in this hot environment and 2. as others have mentioned, the pull through sites are quite short. Our rig is not particularly long (32')and our toad is a compact car and we still had to park it crosswise behind our rig. The short sites would not prevent us from staying here again, but I think next time we will look for a park with more shade. Also, if we go at a cooler time of year, we will stay at one of the very scenic BLM campgrounds along the Colorado River. (800) 787-2751 We camped here in a Motorhome.
We have camped here since 1999. This is the first time with the new owners They were very nice & helpful. We love this campground! We camped for 5 days.. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Locate in the industrial section of town, so views are not as pristine as other locations, but still nice. Located on a regionally-sloping ground, but sites are graded to be level. Good widths and lengths for any size rig. Road noise IS NOT a problem-we are in the front row and can't hear anything. The managers are very nice and helpful. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park is very clean, site we got had good shade which was great because it was near 100 degrees. Dog walk area is big but is at the other end of the park than our site. If you have dogs you might want to ask for a site at the end with the dog walk area as they do not allow dogs to do their thing at your campsite. They had both cable with around 80 channels and their wifi works great. The need to repaint their sign. It is faded and gives a bad first impression. Good location just south of town, gas station with diesel right across the street. Most sites are pull through and have enough room to park our truck. We have stayed here twice and would recommend it. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very neat RV park with wide streets, and wide and deep sites, most with excellent views. Park is well-stoned so dust is at a minimum. Good ingress and egress to the park. Wi-Fi was excellent although cable TV was fuzzy on many channels. Probably the best RV park in Moab. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Wide roads and wide spaces. Laundry very good. WiFi was good - we were close to the office. Road noise was very loud in the front row. Well maintained campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed for 7 nites, paid for 6 with 7th free. Excellent campground,glorious views, very clean and neat. I stayed in the rearmost row and did not notice any road noise, site itself was level. There is so much to do around here did not need anything but the space to park. And for that,this was the best park I have stayed in,in two years. Great pet walk area. Would stay here again anytime. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The park is clean and appears well maintained. However, the sites at the back are not level, front to back. Using one of those sites would be very difficult. We ended up in the front row and the road noise was the worst we've dealt with in a very long time. The sites are quite close together and earlier comments are correct--while they are pullthrus and can accommodate big rigs, if your rig is large (ours is 36'), you must unhook and park behind your picnic table. We had to move the picnic table in order to do so as we drive a one ton pick up with a long bed. We didn't use the WiFi because there is good cell phone service in the area and our air card was faster. We would not recommend this park to others unless they were desperate. It was expensive for what you get. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
If you like road noise, this is the place for you. And it goes ALL NIGHT. We were on the front row, so maybe farther back it would be ok, but I don't think so. Otherwise level sites, some grass, four miles out of town. We would not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Each site has a grassy lawn, large tree and table. The pull-thru sites are well-spaced. Overall appearance and cleanliness is very good. Some highway noise, but very little. Staff was friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the dog walk path which was always clean. WiFi was available most of the time but down some during our 3-day stay. Convenient to Moab. Will stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Pull throughs aren't really suitable for staying hooked up. Sites are fairly level and wide but with little visual separation between sites. Others have noted the less than friendly office help and she's still there! However the park is better than most in Moab and deserves a visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great WIFI (free) and large mostly level sites. The nearby restaurant is now reopened and is within walking distance. Great cable tv. Downside: 1. The attitude of the owner as mentioned in previous posts. 2. The dog walk is at the far south end of the CG and the south side appears to be reserved just for tour groups. 3. We have stayed there for 4 years and do not plan to use it again. This year we used 5 sites, down from the 9 or 10 sites we used in 2004. We had some in our group that absolutely refused to stay there. 4. We saw no tents, but the tent area was overgrown as was the dog walk. They might as well turn the tent area at the north end into a second dog walk. We never saw any children or anything for children to do in the 4 years we have stayed there. Others have stated it is a family type campground. If you only wish to stop for one night, insist on a site long enough that you do not have to unhitch. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I am amending my post above to cause the pull-thru response to flip back to "yes". If you have long rig and only plan to stay one night and not un-hitch, you should explain this when you make your reservation. Our group used 8 sites in 2004 and we were all told to "pull in, unhitch, and park your tow vehicle or toad, behind your picnic table. I was back again in 2005 with a longer rig, 53' total, and I don't think my site was the advertised 60' deep. All the sites seem about the same size and are wide and very nice and easy to get in and out of, but I don't believe my rig would have fit had I not un-hitched. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We have stayed there twice in 2004 and 2005 for a total of 13 nights in a travel trailer. Everything is very clean. I don't think I ever saw a tent, or childern. I dispute what they call pull-thru sites. You pull in to unhook your rig and then drive your vehicle out and park behind your picnic table. If you have a long rig and just wish to spend one night without unhooking, I don't believe they can accomodate more than about a 45' rig. There is nothing open within walking distance except for a Shell gas station. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Stayed here a week. Previous visits were in '95, '97 & '99. Laundry room is clean with plenty of equipment. Gravel sites with concrete patios & grass lawn. Sprinkler system goes off each night so outdoor furniture must be put away each evening. What staff lacks in diplomacy, the park makes up for. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Most Moab parks are located along busy highways and this one is no exception.Try to get as
far away from the entrance as possible, but all sites are best enjoyed by those who simply have to hear continuous highway noise. The staff was less than friendly the last time we visited but, in fairness, it was a very busy weekend around the Easter Jeep Safari. Overall, the park is an OK overnite stop but better options exist in Moab for longer stays. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Gravel and dirt sites that are fairly level. The park is clean and facilities are well maintained. The park is several miles south of Moab facing Hwy 191 so there is some road noise, but not bad. They do offer arranged tours, jeep and river, from the park. This is a fine park but there is very little to do at the park itself. It is really just a place to park the RV while you go find something to do. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Beautiful park with view of the Lasal Mountains. The owners are very friendly & helpful. We stay there at least once a year. We camped here in a camper.
