Best RV Parks & Resorts near Canyonlands National Park
Several private RV parks sit just outside Canyonlands National Park, since the park itself has limited RV camping with no hookups. The RV sites in nearby Moab range from basic to full-service, with most accommodating rigs up to 40 feet long. You'll find a mix of concrete and gravel pads at these RV parks, though the concrete ones fill up fastest during peak season. Most commercial campgrounds provide 30 and 50-amp electrical service, with water and sewer connections at premium sites. Dump stations are available at all developed RV parks and at the visitor center for those staying in more basic spots. The main roads to popular RV camping areas are paved and well-maintained, though some campgrounds require driving on short gravel access roads. If you're planning to run your generator, be aware that most campgrounds restrict hours to 8am-8pm, with complete quiet time after 10pm. Each RV site typically comes with a picnic table and fire ring, though some parks have fire restrictions during dry months. Cell service varies dramatically - strong in Moab but spotty to non-existent in more remote camping areas near the park boundaries. Reservations are essential from March through October, as RV sites within 30 miles of Canyonlands often book up 6-9 months ahead. The closest grocery stores and gas stations are in Moab, about 30 minutes from the park entrance, so stock up before heading to your campsite. Most RV campers use these parks as a base for day trips into Canyonlands, returning to hookups each evening.
