GuideGet here while it's free! This area so close to Goblin Valley is one of the favorite places I have camped. There are sights along the rock wall and even some like our own that is actually within the start of slot canyons. We stayed at site #4.
The roads were definitely bumpy and not maintained at all so make sure your have a vehicle with enough clearance. If there is recent rain, many vehicles might struggle but our SUVs and truck had no issue at all.
This area will soon become part of Goblin Valley where they will charge for camping. It looks like it will be $15 a night, which is honestly still worth it to me if you get a cool site. The signs for future camping information are all in place, but the parts about cost were all taped over with no date listed for when they will start charging.
GuideIt's a love's travel center. They do have r v hook ups. Water electric and sewer. They do charge, of course. I'm not in an rv , but I do spend the night in my camper van, and it's all good.
TravelerIt was a beautiful spot, I drove past the 4 by the river and turned around and got the 3rd one. Not many people until around 9 to 1130 about 50 different cars left on the road, I don’t know if there’s ohv trails or what.
GuideCamped at this site in mid March and it was lovely. It’s right next to Goblin Valley, which is incredibly convenient, and it’s free! We had to find our site at night, which I wouldn’t recommend. The roads are passable but not easy, my 2014 Volkswagen Tiguan held it together but it was definitely bouncy. Our site was nestled in a small slot canyon, super cool! There are many sites to choose from that span all the way down the face of the canyon.
GuideHad a lot of fun going here. It’s just off the highway but you drive further and can’t see the highway or hear traffic so it gives it a more real experience. Lots of cool spots in the area, I like a more rural spot within the rocks so I drove in deeper near swayseys cabin and found a rad spot right on the rocks. No light pollution at all so the stars were amazing at night. Also notable that this place isn’t too far from Moab so there’s more around. You won’t have service going in so make sure you have a map or some common sense.
GuideThis was our first time visiting this site. We generally stay on BLM land or just enjoy dispersed camping BUT this month it was crazy hot with very little wind and we just didn’t want to get the generator out. We looked up this campground on the app Dyrt and found this little gem. It’s very clean with well taken care of restrooms ( little ventilation but clean) along with well kept showers. Water and electric hook up are available along with a few snacks and ice at the front for purchase. Would definitely stay here again!
ScoutWe love going to this Park in Castle Dale. Castle Dale has so much to offer us because we have 3 kids and there is so much to do in the area. Our kids are 9, 7 and 3 1/2 so it makes things very convenient and easy for us to go there and we can rent ATV's locally as well and there is a lot of close by site seeing.
The park has a new owner and they have been consistently improving the parks. We were there about a month ago and they just opened up the laundry facility and club house, I hear they are going to add a dog park , provide propane sales and even have charging stations for EVs. Love that they are making these improvements shows that they really care
ScoutThis spot was much easier to find off I-70 since it’s associated with an exit. No gates to find. It was still 98 degrees at 8pm when I stopped, but no humidity and totally tolerable. Had the place to myself. Would absolutely stop here again.
GuideConvenient overnight spot — Close to town and a gas station, making it a great choice for a quick stop. You can hear some road noise, but it's not too disruptive. Easy in-and-out access. Full cell reception at the top of the hill; none at the lower area. Perfect for a one-night stay.
