    3 Step Hideaway

    Off grid, peaceful retreat

    Amazing hosts, fantastic meals available.  Old western town vibe.  Dark skies.  Hikes, dirt biking, mountain biking, ATV / 4wd trails everywhere.  45 miles to Moab, but a world away.

    Old West Rv

    Stayed here for two or three months every summer. Love the owners. Great people. Very homey place. New owners coming in August, not sure then because they are making alit of changes, not all good ones.

    Old West RV Park

    Great little place

    Big rig friendly. Full hook ups, laundry, bathrooms. Clean, friendly. We were in spot 3 so was very close to road. Owner puts on a quick draw show for the guests twice a week and was fun. Discount for cash

    Old West RV Park

    Friendly, super convenient, full-featured

    Monticello is the ideal place to explore eastern Utah from.  Everything is about an hour away.  National Parks and monuments: Moab, Arches, Canyonlands, Hovenweep, Monument Valley, Canyons of the Ancients, even Mesa Verde is close.  Moab is an hour away.  Cortez, CO is an hour away if you need recreational, um, tobacco.  It's also a lot less crowded than other places in the high season.

    Old West RV Park, plunked down right in the middle of Monticello, is owned and run by "Big Jim," an avuncular trick shooter who regularly gives a show to the occupants of the 15 or so rigs that fit in his park. 

    Good Verizon coverage; the campground has wifi but it doesn't stretch out to the end.  We were in space 12; Big Jim seemed to think it was not the best spot (no wifi), but we liked it because our door opened onto a view across the street instead of the side of another trailer.

    The park will fit any size trailer if you can get one of the few pull-through spots.  Other spaces, like ours, will fit pretty big trailers (ours is 25-ft) but you will have to unhitch and park next to your rig.  There are full hookups and everything is in good order.

    NOTE: the water pressure is quite high.  They will lend you a pressure regulator for free or they will sell you one for $15.

    We really enjoyed our four days here and would definitely visit again.

    Old West RV Park

    Monticello is the place to be 🎶

    If you're here to see Canyonlands, Hovenweep, Escalante and even Arches this is a great spot. Or skip all the crowds and play in the Manti La Sal Mountains. Moab is about 1 hour away, but the drive is easy. And this RV Park is quiet and quaint. You've got shower and bath and laundry and a great host and owner. Very neat and clean bathrooms, just not new. Restaurant next door always had a crowd in the evening so it must be good, but we didn't try it. Just stopping by or staying awhile this is a peaceful and safe place to park. We'll be back!

    Old West RV Park

    Great owner and nice place to stay

    This small rv park is right in town and easy to access. It’s got full hookups for a super reasonable price (we paid $35 on Labor Day weekend for a full hookup). Pet friendly, showers and laundry and as a bonus the owner puts on a little sharp shooting exhibition in the evening. The owner was very friendly and helpful (made chili for everyone the night we stayed!) and apparently he’s a dirt contractor so his sites are super level!

    (We have a 17ft travel trailer but there were lots of bigger rigs there as well.)
