    Moab, Utah

    Overview

    Devils Garden Campground is located deep within the heart of beautiful Arches National Park in Southeastern Utah, at an elevation of approximately 5200 ft.. The campground is situated among natural sandstone arches and fins and is only 18 miles north of the park's entrance and 23 miles from Moab, Utah.

    Recreation

    Hiking trails are abundant in Arches, including the Broken Arch Trail, a scenic loop with a trailhead conveniently located within the campground. Trails are varied and offer something for everyone, from the easy 0.3-mile loop around Balanced Rock to the steep and strenuous 3-mile round-trip trail to Delicate Arch. Other recreational activities in the park include guided hiking tours of the Fiery Furnace, an off-road vehicle route, road biking and picnicking.

    Natural Features

    The campground is forested with mixed stands of Utah juniper and pinyon pine. Flowering prickly pear cacti, yucca and other desert wildflowers dot the landscape, offering vivid color to the surrounding red rock desert. Arches National Park has the highest concentration of natural arches in the world. Over 2,500 of these unusual rock formations can be found here. Towering spires, fins and balanced rocks complement the arches, creating a remarkable assortment of landforms in a relatively small area. The park is within an arid, high desert environment with hot summers and cold winters.

    Nearby Attractions

    Southeastern Utah offers breathtaking scenery, hiking, road and mountain biking opportunities, rafting and scenic driving routes. Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse Point State Park are within a 45-minute drive of Arches' entrance. Moab offers numerous restaurants, shops and museums. The desert around Moab is a mountain biker's dream, with hundreds of miles of slickrock and single-track trails for all riding abilities.

    Willow Springs Trail is state-owned land located 13 miles north of downtown Moab Utah. The state provides some vault toilets and port-o-lets throughout the area, but there are no designated campsites or fire rings.

    Utahraptor State Park is located roughly 15 miles northwest of Moab in the Dalton Wells and Willow Springs area of Grand County — where Utah’s most famous dinosaur was discovered. The site is also home to the historic Moab CCC Camp and the Moab Isolation Center.

    The Moab Exchange lands were acquired by the State of Utah in 1965 in an exchange for sovereign lands within the newly-designated Canyonlands National Park. The Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands is responsible for the management of 829-acre Prairie Dog Haven Unit and the 4,350 Dalton Wells Unit in Grand County, Utah.

    In 2015, the Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands completed the Moab Exchange Lands Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP). The CMP was designed to facilitate the management of the exchange lands under multiple-use, sustained yield principles and accommodating public and private uses to the extent that the uses do not substantially impair the public trust resources.

    Overview

    Saddlehorn Campground is located within Colorado National Monument which preserves one of the grand landscapes of the American West. Much more than a monument, towering monoliths exist within a vast plateau and canyon panorama. You can experience sheer-walled, red rock canyons along the twists and turns of Rim Rock Drive, where you may spy bighorn sheep and soaring eagles.

    Recreation

    Colorado National Monument is famous in cycling communities for its majestic views and challenging climbs, but Historic Rim Rock Drive is also a popular motor tour. Hikers flock to the miles of maintained trails, photographers come year round to capture the spectacular views, and geologists study the unique landscape for its scientific value. Climbers come for the towering sandstone, and wildlife lovers may spot Desert Bighorn sheep, golden eagles, collared lizards, and many other special creatures.

    Natural Features

    The campground is nestled within large red rock formations, with pinyon and juniper trees providing adequate shade. There are spectacular views of the Grand Valley to the northwest, and some of the park's most scenic monoliths and canyons to the southeast

    Nearby Attractions

    The cities of Grand Junction, Fruita, and Palisade boast many urban and agricultural attractions, but there are also abundant recreation areas surrounding the Monument.

    Train lovers delight

    Couldn’t be more perfect if you loved train horns blasting at intersections and coal cars rolling by combined with a steady hum of highway traffic from your cozy dirt pull out.

    There are millions of acres of public land around here. This site is something I will not visit again. If I would’ve known better, I would’ve driven down the road another few miles. Looks like there is more camping that direction.

    Rugged Beauty and Adventure

    Sand Flats Recreation Area near Moab, Utah, is a playground for outdoor enthusiasts, offering unmatched access to world-class trails like the famous Slickrock Bike Trail and stunning desert scenery. The campsites are well-spaced and boast incredible views of red rock formations, making it a great spot for those seeking adventure and rugged beauty.

    The campground’s location is unbeatable if you’re here to bike, hike, or off-road, with trails starting right from your campsite. The simple facilities, including vault toilets and picnic tables, are well-maintained. However, this is true desert camping, so don’t expect shade or luxuries like water hookups—you’ll need to come prepared.

    One downside is the summer heat. Even at night, the temperatures remain uncomfortably warm, making it difficult to cool down or sleep well during peak summer months. A portable fan or extra water for cooling off is highly recommended if you visit in the heat of the season.

    That said, the experience of camping under the stars in such an iconic landscape is hard to beat. If you can plan your trip during the cooler months, Sand Flats Recreation Area is an unforgettable destination for outdoor exploration.

    Don’t let the entrance deter you

    This place was great. We had initially planned to boondock elsewhere but found this location close to both Arches and Canyonlands and some online reviews that mentioned being good for bigger RVs. When we first rolled in, we saw a lot of toy haulers and other rigs with ORV’s- I thought it was going to be loud and and dusty. I was wrong. We drove further to find a site- our map showed a large loop we could turn around on if we didn’t see anything. The further in we got the better the road became and we found many well auto camp spots with tables and metal fire rings. It’s posted to only camp in spots where there are rings- we found that several people ignored this ¯_(ツ)_/¯ We ended up grabbing. A spot that was essentially a pull through and gave us a stunning view and at least 100 yards from our nearest neighbor. Initially I was irritated by the 15$ fee but thought better of it given the well cared for road, many portable toilets as well as vault toilets throughout the park. I saw a ranger patrol which made us feel safer. We were able to let our dog off lead although as with most desert locations- there were stickers and cactus galore. There is definitely wildlife roaming around. Great place to stay a few days or longer if you’re set up well. We only heard one person running a generator and it wasn’t loud enough to disturb our stay.

    Quite a drive in

    It was quite a drive in, we just got parked on the edge of the campsite as the smaller roads leading into the campsite looked a bit uneven for our campervan. You do drive passed a paid campsite initially, keep on driving. We had the place to ourselves.

    Quiet and out of the way.

    Off hwy 191 and very quiet. Level pads with room to stretch. Wi fi was ok and good cellular signal. Bathrooms are heated with nice showers with plenty of hot water. During our stay, we noticed dirt on the shower dressing area. I'm not sure if it from people tracking it in or the cleaner not mopping properly. It was a minor problem. Host was friendly and helpful. Yes there are many full-time campers, but the rigs are in good shape, and the folks are quiet. Price is good for Moab and we would stay again.

    Convenient, free camping spot near Moab and Arches

    Quite a few campsite options with lots of wide open space, although this means you can see other sites and have little privacy or coverage from the sun. On a clear night you can see a breathtaking amount of stars. Close to the highway so there's some noise throughout the day, but it does quiet down overnight. Road is a little rocky and bumpy but nothing too crazy, most vehicles should be fine.

There are a variety of accommodations from dry camping, pull through RV sites, tipis, cabins, rental RVs, and safari tents. The office is also a cute gift shop and general store with fresh popcorn and homemade pastries available for free. There are two different showers facilities that are maintained beautifully. There is also an observation deck for sunsets and star gazing. Lots of improvements on the way too.

    Gorgeous views but....

    Stayed one night in early Oct 24 before making my way into Canyonlands NP on a Sunday night. Absolutely stunning campground. Probably one of the most gorgeous sites I've stayed at. It wasn't too hard to get into or anything on the road and seemed to have tons of sites. 

    The big BUT is that there was a lot of toiletry waste around the area tho and when it became nighttime tons of people started coming in and that place echos. Please leave no trace, it's such a gorgeous place.

    Great campground with a bit of WiFi

    Stayed for 2 night in Sept 24 while traveling with my mother. The bit of AT&T was my mom's favorite part of the site other than the views which it had and a lovely trailhead out of the campground. 

    Pros: The trailhead/views, flush toilets, WiFi(At least at our site faceing towards Fruita), trash cans, tables

    Cons: Sites were real close together so it really depends on who your next to, for someone like myself with a roof top tent wished the parking spot had been a little flatter, Rec.gov reservations, sandy

    The big con of this campground was we had so much difficulty with the Rec.gov app getting a site, but the very helpful folk at the visitor center helped us get a site.

    Would definately go there again, just beautiful and jawdropping views, and easy access to the rest of the monument early in the morning

    Got the last available spot

    We were feeling desperate when the campground we had reserved was inaccessible due to construction. Being right on the Colorado River was a special experience in its own right, and it gave us easy access to Arches, Canyonlands, Bears Ears, and, of course, Moab itself. Another reviewer here mentioned free filtered water from the local outdoor gear shop, which is well worth visiting. This campground was clean, though the huge dumpster needed attention.

    Close to everything and well maintained for comfort & safety

    A very nicely designed and maintained campground right in Moab. They have a North & a South site—we stayed in the South camp. The facilities/comfort stations are clean, have been updated over time, and everything works well. The showers were hot and stayed hot for a proper hot shower after a long day. Electrical outlets at every sink for the more domesticated campers. The sites varied in size, so be sure to ask about “fit” for your rig or tent. The several tent sites are located along the back side. There is a Carwash just over a creek/ravine behind that side and you can hear it working all day, but it stops around dinner time. There is also a highway nearby and the traffic is a bit noisy, but traffic pretty much stops around 9-10pm and doesn’t get noisy again until around 8 am. The campground is close to everything in Moab, so you can hardly get a more convenient location. Arches is just out of town to the North, so travel there is a breeze.

    Beautiful, but booked

    Rough road, 2WD is fine. Flatter spaces, good for RVs, are farther back. Only stayed one night because organizers of some Mad Moose race kicked us out to prep (we drove in the dark and missed any signs). Seems like a popular event space, so probably a good idea to check for happenings in advance (and plan ample time for prep!)

    After searching for campsites around Moab, I drove out  128 and stumbled onto this gem. Just a clear spot on the side of the road adjacent to the Colorado river. Close to the road so there's traffic until late hours but fairly quiet after 10 pm (at least during my stop).

    Pit toilet and not much else but a good spot for one or two nights.

    Solid

    Staff is friendly and helpful! Gave a great recommendation for an off road drive through Canyonlands NP. Good view out the back of property of Arches. Pool needed to be fixed while we were here, so can't speak to that. Showers are older and water pressure is dismal but they're warm and ok for washing off the dirt we were coated in after hiking in the Moab wind. Sites are easy to find and grounds were clean and neat.

    Nice

    Not to much space between rigs, but is very quiet and bit expensive. Very close to the Monument State Park.

    Good option at right time of year for area access

    Stayed night of May 5. Arrived around 4p on a Friday and was pleasantly surprised at the number of available campsites. All FCFS. About 24 in total, we stayed in #19 but didn't look like any were bad spots. All spots exposed, no trees. SO remember---HOT in summer-time. Most had good views of sky and La Sals. Trash and vault toilets but no water. Space between sites good. Has a camp host. Dirt road in is a little rough with washboard. No apparent stickers but cows had been in the area recently per patties and prints in the dried mud. Close to dinosaur tracks, easy hikes and lots of bikes. 

    Got 5g in campground

    Wingate Campground — Dead Horse Point State Park

    Reservations go FAST and months in advance

    Stayed in site 52 which had a lovely view to the east and LaSals. Most sites on this side of Wingate campground are pretty good. Flush toilets are very good but has to be brought in by truck. Temps were in the 20s (we think) and it was quite cold, even with the electric plugged in and heater set at upper 50s. Beautiful sky views. Nice trail around the rim of Dead Horse Point (looks a bit like Grand Canyon)

    Food aside: Had freeze-dried Asian noodles, added beef jerky and was spicy HOT & had high FQ (fart quotient). Also ate freeze-dried bone broth rice with added turkey jerky, and beef noodles meal and both were quite good. 

    Kayenta campground is also nice with trees and the shelters have cabinets and overhead lights. Also seem like vegetation is plentiful, offering privacy between sites. Checked out the campgrounds in Canyonlands- FC/FS and the sites appear level. There are 12 sitesv(one is handicap only) and 2 vault toilets. Also looked at Cowboy Campground, 7 sites that are mostly level, a vault toilet, FC/FS but appears pretty nice, easy access from road and good views. Also looked at Horsethief which has 50+ FC/FS sites that are mostly level. Plenty of vault toilets. Road in is dirt and was fairly rutted but passable with van.
