Best Glamping near Green River, UT

Green River KOA offers premium glamping accommodations for travelers seeking comfort amid Utah's spectacular red rock country.

Sites are thoughtfully designed with private outdoor spaces where guests can relax after exploring nearby natural attractions. One guest shared, "This is a great campground for all types of camping situations; an oasis in the middle of the desert to refuel, shower, plug-in, have a hot meal at the restaurant next-door, recharge and even swim in the pool." The glamping units provide a perfect balance of outdoor immersion with resort-style amenities, including quality linens, comfortable mattresses, and furnished interiors that elevate the camping experience.

Goblin Valley State Park, located 45 minutes from Green River, houses unique yurt accommodations that place visitors steps away from otherworldly rock formations. These circular structures feature queen beds, futon couches, heating/cooling systems, and microwave kitchenettes for meal preparation. The park's location offers exceptional stargazing opportunities due to its Dark Sky designation, with minimal light pollution allowing for spectacular night sky viewing. A recent visitor noted, "The campsites were clean, the staff was very helpful and friendly. As a bonus they have a K-9 area for pet play off leash." Guests can explore nearby slot canyons, hike among the "goblin" hoodoos, or take day trips to Capitol Reef National Park. Reservations for these popular glamping options should be secured months in advance, particularly during the mild spring and fall seasons.

    Green River KOA

    Green River KOA

    This is a great campground for all types of camping situations; an oasis in the middle of the desert to refuel, shower, plug-in, have a hot meal at the restaurant next-door, recharge and even swim in the pool or float the Green River through Labrynth canyon in the warm months. So much to do in either direction from Green River - all the national parks and public land access. Not sure if there’s a better place in Utah for it.

    Ok RV Park & Canyonlands Stables

    Highly Recommended

    We stayed in one of the tent sites and I couldn’t be more impressed with the quality of this park. The bathrooms were well thought out and in impeccable condition. The staff was kind and so responsive to questions and considerate of our arrival time. The tent we stayed in had everything we needed - a wonderfully comfortable king bed, towels ready to go, lights that were portable in case you needed for a walk at night, air conditioning, heater, WiFi.... obsessed!

    Ok RV Park & Canyonlands Stables

    Clean, friendly staff, easy rules

    This is a large RV and camping site, just south of Moab. I was greeted by a friendly staff member in a cool air conditioned office. We enjoyed the clean 24 hour bathrooms and  laundry room. The wifi was pretty good if you are in a spot near the office. They sold some essentials in their store like ice, firewood and ice cream. Our spot also had a nice tree for shade which was great in the summer heat.

    Under Canvas Moab

    Beautiful Glamping in Moab

    We spent 3 night at Under Canvas Moab for a wedding and had a wonderful experience. We (2 couples) stayed in a 4-single beds tent and were happy with the choice due to the heat while we were there. The canvas tent was beautiful and included the 4 beds, 4 folding chairs, a dresser, and outlets to charge cell phones. Under Canvas provided live music Friday night, yoga Saturday morning, and smores around the campfire every night. We needed to do a lot of set up for the wedding ceremony and reception, and the Under Canvas staff were incredibly helpful to help us prepare. Some tents included a bathroom and shower. Ours did not, and we had no problem using the shared bathrooms and showers with other guests. Overall, a great spot for glamping and for a beautiful wedding!!

    Moenkopi Yurts — Dead Horse Point State Park

    Yurt for the win!

    The yurt was amazing. Clean restroom, huge deck, and the air conditioning was nice in the desert! Right on bike/hike trails and the night sky was stunning.

    Nice campground

    Nice spot to set up camp. Close to Arches and Canyonlands. Shop inside check in had lots of things you could need. We got ice and aluminum foil. Each tent site had a charcoal grill and weather canopy. It was nice. Bathrooms were air conditioned and had a nice shower. Only downside was it rained a lot and we had a bit of a stream under our tent so we had to move it to where the car parks instead of under the weather canopy during the rain storm. The views of the mountains are great!

    Moab Koa

    Stayed in a cabin

    We arrived on the later side of things and every camp area was full, in all of Moab, KOA had four cabins available so we snatched one up. It was a new cabin and it was wonderful. We normally wouldn't camp in a cabin but after a 3 hour drive, we weren't interested in turning around and driving home. It had a queen bed in the room you first walk in to. Then beyond that was another room with a bunk bed and a full bathroom. Toilet, tub and sink. It also had a small table, fridge, microwave and tv. It was basically a small hotel room. It had it's own deck and cook grill. The views were nice, the staff was nice. We didn't explore a whole lot of the campground but they did have a pool and other sites looked nice. It was not far from Arches National Park and town was even closer. If we were looking for a less rugged camp trip, we would consider their cabins again.

    Moab Glamping and RV Resort

    Beautiful Backdrop and Clean Fun Campground

    Pulled in very late at night after a long day on the road from NV. Campground was quiet and clean, and checking in after hours was hassle free and easy. Would definitely like to come back and stay longer to visit more of the surrounding area.


Guide to Green River

Green River, Utah sits at 4,080 feet elevation between the Book Cliffs and the San Rafael Swell, creating a desert environment with temperature extremes.

What to do

Biking trails near Moab: The area serves as an ideal base for cyclists exploring the renowned trails 45-60 minutes away. At Sun Outdoors Arches Gateway, one visitor noted, "Great bike wash, loved the playground, nice staff, great amenities. We had an ideal site with a nice big lawn area we set up a whole game area in."

Stargazing opportunities: Dark sky viewing is exceptional throughout the region. A camper at Goblin Valley State Park Campground reported, "Dark skies offer amazing star gazing. Very hot & windy when we were there in June. Clean bathrooms and free, private showers."

Accessible hiking from campsites: Many campgrounds connect directly to trail systems. At Kayenta Campground, one reviewer shared, "Beautiful campsite, well maintained. Great hiking from campsite. Everything was clean and well kept up."

What campers like

Cooling options during summer heat: Multiple campgrounds offer swimming pools for relief from the desert climate. At Green River KOA, a visitor mentioned, "The campground is beautiful. Clean and updated. The pull throughs are flat ground. Picnic tables, grills, pool. Staff is really nice."

Geological explorations: The unique rock formations are a major draw for visitors seeking distinctive landscape photography. At Sun Outdoors North Moab, one camper noted, "Each tent site had a charcoal grill and weather canopy. It was nice. Bathrooms were air conditioned and had a nice shower. The views of the mountains are great!"

Shade structures at desert sites: Many campgrounds provide shelters to mitigate the intense sun. A camper at Wingate Campground said, "Very clean site! Sturdy, 2 walled shelter with picnic table, nice fire pit. The shelter blocks the evening sun. The camp hosts are super friendly."

What you should know

Limited cell coverage: Service varies significantly across campgrounds. A visitor to Williams Bottom Campground reported, "No cell service for T mobile or Verizon. Fire pits. Right by the road. Easy access. Multiple pit toilets."

Water availability concerns: Many sites require bringing your own water supply. A camper noted, "No water here so bring your own. Nearest hospital and store are 30 minutes away."

Reservation timing: For premium glamping options in Green River, Utah, planning ahead is essential. One reviewer advised, "It's functional. Small sites and ours was next to the highway. Hook ups work, free WiFi is slow but works. A little light on number of rest rooms."

Tips for camping with families

Look for campgrounds with play areas: Several locations offer recreational facilities specifically for children. One visitor to Sun Outdoors Arches Gateway remarked, "Clean. The tent spots had a nice canopy so your tent stays shaded and dry. Power and potable water. The staff was super helpful. Amenities included a pool and hot tub."

Consider tent site locations: Some campgrounds place tents in less convenient areas. A reviewer at Shady Acres RV Park observed, "Tent sites are almost non existent. Showers were clean. The door to our cabin had some pretty severe gaps. And overall there was faint but lingering smell of hot garbage."

Check for off-leash areas: Some campgrounds accommodate pets with dedicated spaces. A camper at Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway mentioned, "They do have a leash less dog park and very reasonably priced laundry."

Tips from RVers

Hookup quality varies: Electrical service reliability differs between sites. One RVer noted, "50A service at our site and a couple next to us was spotty in its overall quality - probably an open ground or something. We made it work, though."

Site width considerations: Many campgrounds have tight spacing between units. A visitor mentioned, "We were on the side with smaller RVs and tent campers and the spots were close and tight. We would not stay here again."

Proximity to parks: The glamping options in Green River, Utah offer varying access to national parks. A reviewer stated, "Great location with quick access to Arches/Downtown Moab. Spots are all fairly close together."
