Best RV Parks & Resorts near Blanding, UT

Several RV parks near Blanding have pads that can handle rigs up to 45 feet long on level concrete or gravel surfaces. The hookup situation is pretty good, with most places offering water, sewer, and either 30-amp or 50-amp electrical connections depending on what your rig needs.

Most RV parks include dump stations if you're not at a full-hookup site, and the access roads are generally wide and well-maintained for bigger vehicles. If you plan to run your generator, be aware that most campgrounds have specific hours when it's allowed. The typical RV site comes with a fire ring and picnic table alongside your parking pad. Length restrictions change from park to park, so it's worth checking before you head out. The roads to Blanding's campgrounds don't usually present clearance problems even for larger rigs. During peak seasons, RV sites fill up quickly, with many campers booking months ahead. From your RV base in Blanding, you can easily drive to many local points of interest throughout the region.

    Old West RV Park - Utah

    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.)

    The Needles Campground — Canyonlands National Park

    Loved It

    Beautiful campground in the Needles section of Canyonlands.

    $20/night, and there is a 7 day stay limit within 30 days, and 14 days total per year. 

    There are two loops: loop A is first come first served, and loop B takes reservations during busy season (is FCFS in winter), but if there is a spot open it’s available for walk up (no reservations) for one night only.  The campground layout is nice and spread out, and the whole area is so quiet and peaceful. 

    There is drinking water here, trash and recycling (plastic and aluminum only), flush toilets (no showers). 

    No cell service in the whole park but our WeBoost gave us several bars of LTE, and there is wifi at the visitor center. 

    This campground is nice in that there are many hiking trails nearby. 

    There are 2 handicap spots, and 1 is available for anyone after 8pm for 1 night only. 

    Heads up that the driveway up into each camp site can be steep and/or have a dip so if you have a long vehicle you may scrape. I believe the length limit here is 25ft, we fit fine in our 26ft motorhome. Hosts on site were very nice and helpful. 

    Campground is free in winter after the water is shut off (approx mid to late November, usually, depending on weather).

    Valles RV Park

    Small basic FHU RV Park close to a lot of scenic areas

    We are full-timers in a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow. We were here for a few days in mid April. The CG is pretty basic, and could use a little work, but has full hook-ups with 30A service. We were in site 4(a pull-through) for 4 nights in mid April. The owner was friendly and helpful. It’s a good central location for exploring scenic areas in the vicinity if you need/want FHUs. While here we plan to visit a number of scenic areas in; Gooseneck SP, Mexican Hat Rock, Moki Dugway, Muley Point Overlook, Valley of the Gods and Monument Valley- lots to see around here.

    AT&T coverage showed 2 Bars of LTE service, with speeds up to 3.5 MB/s. We had an unobstructed view of the sky and so we were able to receive all 3 SW Dish satellites and Starlink had up to 15 MB/s. We didn’t try to load any OTA channels.

    Sand Island Recreation Area — Bears Ears National Monument

    Petroglyphs!

    Came here to see petroglyphs which are next to the campground along the San Juan River. 

    The campground is $15/night, first come first served and can accommodate big rigs. 

    The sites are dirt and gravel and each has a fire pit and picnic table. Area was dusty and very sunny though some sites offer some shade. 

    The campground is not far off of the highway so there is some road noise. There is a boat ramp for river access. There were quite a few fishers so must be good fishing area though I don’t really know. 

    There is no garbage and water is available seasonally, but pit toilets are available so pack in and pack out and bring lots of water. 

    The campground was clean and the petroglyphs were cool, it's just too bad that people vandalized them. Good place to stay for a day or two.

    Natural Bridges Campground

    Cool Out of the Way National Monument

    Small campground located in Natural Bridges National Monument, which is located within Bears Ears National Monument boundaries.

    $15/night. Self pay, first come first served. There are vault toilets, garbage cans, and plastic, paper, and aluminum recycling within the campground. No water at campground, but the visitor center has bottle and jug filling stations. 

    The length limit is 26ft, which seems accurate as our 26ft motorhome fit in the spot but anything bigger wouldn’t have. The loop is narrow as well, so bigger rigs would have a difficult time navigating the campground. 

    There are hikes in between the bridges (no bikes allowed on hiking trails) or you can drive or bike the 9 mile loop to see the bridges. 

    No cell service here and service in the Bears Ears NM was spotty. The cell booster did not help and there is no wifi in the visitor center/ bookstore.

    Old West RV Park - Utah

    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.


Guide to Blanding

Blanding, Utah sits at 6,100 feet elevation in the southeastern part of the state, where desert landscapes meet alpine forests. RV parks near Blanding experience temperature swings typical of high desert regions, with summer days reaching 90°F and nights cooling to the 50s. Winter camping requires preparation for below-freezing temperatures, with most campgrounds operating seasonally from March through November.

What to do

Explore ancient history: Valley of the Gods and Monument Valley are within an hour's drive from Blue Mountain RV Park. "We were in a premium back-in site along the main route through Blanding, so we heard road noise on the 2 weekdays of our stay starting early in the morning," notes Craig J., who recommends using this as a base camp for exploring the region's attractions.

Visit national monuments: Hovenweep National Monument is 40 minutes east of Blanding, featuring six prehistoric villages from the 1200s. "If you're here to see Canyonlands, Hovenweep, Escalante and even Arches this is a great spot," says Lynn from Old West RV Park.

Mountain biking access: The Manti-La Sal mountains offer trails less crowded than those in Moab. "Skip all the crowds and play in the Manti La Sal Mountains. Moab is about 1 hour away, but the drive is easy," adds Lynn, highlighting alternatives to busier recreation areas.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Many campgrounds prioritize bathroom cleanliness. "They have done a lot of improvements so everything is clean and new. All pull through sites, level sites, a new bath house with large showers and laundry facilities," reports Moe F. at Cadillac Ranch RV Park.

Trading post shops: Several RV parks feature Native American crafts and supplies. "The trading post is full of beautiful, native-made items and a handy small store of cameras essentials," notes Corvid C. about Blue Mountain RV Park's on-site store.

Designated pet areas: Dog owners appreciate dedicated spaces. "The fenced in dog area was so welcoming after traveling all day," writes lynn at Blue Mountain RV Park, noting this amenity helps after long travel days.

What you should know

Cell service variations: Connectivity can be inconsistent between campgrounds. "Cell coverage was marginal and frequently was roaming or 1X/3G. The grounds do offer a free Wi-Fi but it was no more reliable than cellular coverage," explains Zach L. about staying at Cadillac Ranch RV Park.

Water pressure considerations: Some parks have notably high water pressure. "NOTE: the water pressure is quite high. They will lend you a pressure regulator for free or they will sell you one for $15," warns Antony V. from Old West RV Park.

Road noise factors: Campgrounds along main routes experience traffic sounds. "Only a 4 because the highway is close by," mentions Nathan B. about Blue Mountain RV Park, noting the compromise between accessibility and quiet.

Tips for camping with families

Visit during off-peak seasons: September-October and April-May offer milder temperatures and fewer crowds. "During peak seasons, RV sites fill up quickly, with many campers booking months ahead," cautions local campground staff.

Consider cabin options: Some parks offer alternatives to tent camping. The Monticello RV Campground provides cabin rentals with amenities. "Nice cabins, laundry and bathhouse. Cute western theme. Very clean and everything works," notes Leah.

Check entertainment options: Some parks offer unique activities. "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," describes Antony V. about Old West RV Park's owner, providing unusual entertainment for all ages.

Tips from RVers

Position for views: Request spots away from main roads when possible. "We would have traded that for a narrower site (no lawn area) along the back of the property away from the road and better able to view amazing sunset views," suggests Craig J. about site selection at Blue Mountain RV Park.

Seasonal access considerations: Most Blanding RV parks operate March through November. Coral Sands RV Park runs from "Mar 15 to Nov 15," making it important to check operating dates when planning spring or fall trips.

Central location advantages: Staying in Blanding or Monticello provides access to multiple attractions. "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," explains Antony V., highlighting the strategic camping location.
