Top 10+ Dog-Friendly Campgrounds near Castle Dale, UT

This area is really just designated dispersed camping. No developed fee CG, NO WATER, no dumpsters. Vault toilets at wedge rim. BLM is going to construct a new developed fee CG in 2023 and fees of $20 will be charged. Not sure if all the existing free designated dispersed will go away. Cell signal is excellent. Closest town is Castle Dale 20 mi away. Road access is a wide graded gravel road from Castle Dale.

Some trees but lots of dirt and no grassy areas. Spaces were nicely distanced for the price ($59 a night for pull-thru FH). They do have a leash less dog park and very reasonably priced laundry.

Nice place. Laundry on site which was the biggest draw. Can’t find a laundromat in 100 miles of here lol. Reasonable prices. Clean. Has a fenced in dog park. Not many trees and dusty/sandy but I guess that comes with the area.

Stayed here for a night after a long drive. We wanted to take showers and not have to search for a site. Hot showers, nice staff, dog park. Close to the highway and we backed right up to a motel 6 that was very busy all night. Dogs not allowed at tent sites, but luckily they made a last minute exception for us at the very end tent site.

We picked this stop on our way to Salt Lake City. Clean, friendly and lots of space. They have increased the area, so I would ask for one of the older sites. They have trees and some shade. The new area is pretty barren. They do have a nice dog park, but large gravel and I have small dogs. Clean bathrooms and showers. I did not use the shower, but my husband did. Her said that he had trouble getting hot water. We are traveling in a class C

Beautiful RV Park!! Friendly service! Escorted to our Site# 201 which backed up to the Price River. Site was super level for us. Great space between neighbors on our side of the park. There is a picnic table. However, we took our chairs down to the river bank each evening. So tranquil and relaxing! Laundry room is nice and all machines were in working order. We did not use the restrooms but took a peek in and they are all clean and look new. Beautiful mountain scenery as well. AT&T, T-Mobile Cell Service were excellent. No issues with their WiFI. So many cable channels! If there was one Con, it was that the dog park/run area was muddy. Looks like they are watering the area to maybe get more grass to grow. However, there are plenty of other grassy spots with Dog Waste Stations and bags to walk your dog. Street traffic noise can be heard. We do have a white noise machine and it did not interrupt our sleep. Enjoyed our relaxing stay here! Highly recommend!

We chose this area as a central location to Moab, Provo and SLC! Nice scenic drives to all of those places from camp and did not feel too far out. Campground was clean and well kept. Staff is very nice and helpful. It will be beautiful in a few years with the landscaping investment they have made. Plenty of individual showers. I recommend the ones at office building, they are bigger. Laundry facilities great. Huge plus is dish washing sink with hot water. It is always nice to not have to wash dishes in camper. Dog park, playground and splash pad. My only caution is that it is between Highway and railroad tracks so if you are noise sensitive be aware. We didn’t notice any major noise and slept very comfortably with the nice flowing River behind us. Helper is cute town to explore.

I stayed here last minute booking/trip because Moab was booked up. It worked out great. One day I went to Moab, arches, Canyonlands. Another day I spent at Goblin Valley. The campsites were clean, the staff was very helpful & friendly. The pool was clean and as a bonus they has a K-9 area for pet play off leash.

Stayed here for 3 nights in 37' 5th wheel. RV park is quiet. It's a little old, but not run down and not trashy at all. Some grassy sites. Mostly Gravel, some sandy areas. Not muddy if wet. Good hookups. Pet friendly. I feel a little bad for giving three stars, but I should give it four because there's always availability it seems. I know many of you are a bunch of softies so I don't want to skew the reviews with my four-star. This is in the middle of the desert! Hot days and cool nights. 50 amp. Fresh Water. Sewer hookups. Have video here of drive through

We stopped here on our way from CO to CA and were very pleased.  It had a dog run which was great.  Our boys played basketball.  Upon our return, we chose to drive to this campground than stop at others because we knew how nice it was.  The town isn't much, but this is a great place to stopover or use as a base camp due to its location and accessibility to many of the sites in this area of Utah.

Easy to find a space, lots of room for kids and dogs too be their wild selves, quick drive to goblin valley

The campground is beautiful. Clean and updated. The pull throughs are flat ground. Picnic tables, grills, pool. Staff is really nice. There's no shade at the sites. They have sewer, water, 30/50 Amp hookups. There's an area for dogs as well. We would stay here again. Very nice. Easy to get to as well. Fuel in town.

You are WALKING distance from sport climbs of all grades.

Verizon service just outside the campground, where the pavement ends we parked at a turnout. We work out of our van and it was amazing to be 15 minutes from multiple crags for post work climbing.

Quite primitive camping, but there are vault toilets and fire rings.

If you are interested in geology, this place is worth at least a hike. Some canyons have pictographs too!

We also have dogs, so the small creek (August was a dry time to be here) was nice for the to cool down in.

Worth the visit for $10 a night.

The Host (Jenna) was a real sweetheart and went above and beyond in educating me about her experience working in a KOA. The campground sites were EXTREMELY well kept and ALOT of work has gone into sprucing up what used to be a run down place. Every single campsite is circled with a special touch (i.e., mulch, artificial grass, rock border, etc). The large dog run area was perfect for my boxer. We spent a day hiking up to the Arches National park (a MUST DO in this area!) and the Swasey beach was an interesting and tranquil place to picnic.  I would definitely stay here again!
