  Cool place to stay

  We camped in a tent for our road trip through Moab. Loved the private tent site set up. The employees in office were so friendly and polite. My only issue, hence only a 4 star rating was the bathrooms. The two days we were there, the bathrooms were never cleaned. Toilet paper on the ground, the showers were a mess. Other than that, it was great.

  Pretty nice

  Great facilities, able to walk around town from camp, upkept, clean and seemed safe.

  Downfalls would be our ability to hear traffic from our tent camp. And the small area designated for each tent site.

  We used it as a restarting point to regroup, do laundry, shower, repack and move onto the next portion of our trip. Also came back for showers on our way through town.

  This is the best campground!

  I think they just changed management so they were doing a lot of improvements. The showers & bathrooms are the best I’ve ever seen. They have cabins, RV & tent sites. We tent camped in an RV site for the hookups. Staff was very friendly & informative. Also it’s at the edge of Moab so it was a very close drive to Arches NP, etc. And it was also close to town so we were only maybe a 10 minute drive to the grocery store & the downtown area of Moab

  Ants

  I tried to tent camp here late one night in Aug. 2020. It was dark when I arrived. I picked a random tent site on the after-hours registration board, deposited my envelope in the box, and drove to the site. My red tail lights illuminated an ant hole with black ants crawling around. I tried to sleep in the bed of my truck to no avail. It was hot. I gave up around 2am and drove to a motel in Moab. I called the next day to complete the registration process and explain why I didn’t check-in in the morning and ensure to pay anyway, but no one answered or called me back.

  Great Convince, location. An RV park

  I tent camped here for a few days with my young children while we explored the local National Parks. There were ample convinces, including running water and a pinick table at each tent site, two separate bathrooms/showers locations within the park, sinks for dishes, laundromat, an outdoor pool (kids loved the pool), and a gas station/convenience store. The basic campsite was decent, although small and hard to drive tent stakes into the hard sand ground. There were shade trees thoughout the park. Also, there's a playground and grassy areas for group gatherings. Nice location in the heart of Moab. Only downsides are it being a busy, noisy, dusty, non-remote RV park. Definitely a good value for the price.

  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.

  Moab Rim RV Campark

  Great RV park with camping right outside of downtown Moab

  I tent camped at this campground/RV park for 6 nights in early October 2020 and highly recommend this.  If you are looking for a secluded campsite in nature, this is not it.   However, I was looking for a location very close to the heart of Moab which great WiFi and cell service where I could work remotely and a nice camping set up.  This campground/RV park hit all those requirements and I highly recommend it.  The majority of the sites are RV sites here, but also several tent sites, both with and without power.  I booked a tent site with power so be able to work from the road and plug in chargers, etc.  The tent site power has 2 standard household plugs and was right next to the picnic table which was convenient.  I stayed in site G which had a fire pit, covered picnic table, and plenty of space for 2 tents.  All sites have picnic tables and fire pits, but not all are covered.  I worked from here for several days and the WiFi was awesome and my T-Mobile service had 3 bars.  I was able to participate in Zoom calls with no issue.  Bathrooms are extremely clean and there is a small room with a sink for washing dishes which is nice.  The office has a small store with camping essentials, firewood, and ice.  The staff is extremely helpful and friendly-- when I called with questions before booking, they talked me through everything in detail.  Aside from being in more of an RV park setting, there is a little bit of space between sites at least for an RV park style campground and the back of the property is against stunning red rock- which is probably why you came to Moab.  Less than a 5 minute drive to restaurants, shops, supermarkets in downtown Moab, short drive to Arches NP, also convenient to Canyonlands NP.  Highly recommend Moab Rim!

  iCamp Green River

  Gravel lot with little shade.

  This place is across the street from Green River State park which is lush and green. This place feels like a desert. There is no grass everything is gravel. Bathrooms are coded and there is a dump station. Spots have electric and water some have sewer. It seems there are several RV that just live here and others are passing through. Spaces are pull throughs. It is great for a one night stay but I would not want to be here longer. There is a train tracks near by so if that noise bothers you this is not the place.

  Ranger Review: Stream 2 Sea at Slick Rock Campground hi

  Campground review: We made or tent site reservations online en route to Moab. When we arrived there was a sign stating they had a special for $20 night for tent camping. The office honored the special and reimbursed us the difference that we had already paid. The young man helping us check in was very kind and helpful. Unfortunately the pool was closed due to some plumbing issues in Moab. Kind of a bummer because it was super hot and it would have been nice. We were provided direction to site 138. It was a nice site with a couple shade trees. Since it is a commercial campground in town it is noisy and you hear highway traffic. Sites are pretty close together. Just bring ear plugs and you’ll be okay. The site had a picnic table and a grill. No campfires are allowed. Some of the other tent sites had canopies for shade and rain protection.

  Product Review: Stream2Sea https://stream2sea.com/ I sampled a variety of products from Steam2Sea. In the sunny desert, I was most interested in sun protection. Their sunscreen products are titanium dioxide based. They are all eco conscious, biodegradable and reef friendly. These products do what they say they will do, I did not get sunburned. Even in a sudden rain storm and sweating in the heat. I did reapply once after the rain.
  To apply, rub product between palms then pat over the area you wish to apply then begin to rub it in. It will leave your skin whitish and a bit sticky feeling. I honestly did not like the feel of the sunscreen. It did protect me from the sun and it is eco friendly, but I prefer the bad for you chemical sun screen. Just my opinion. It is not a bad product, just not for me. I tried their sun protect lip balm with spf 30. It left my lips white and the cherry flavor just didn’t do it for me. I also tried their Tinted Sunscreen. This seemed better than the original, but still felt a bit sticky.

  The product I love and will repurchase is their Nourishing Body Lotion. It is packed with good for you ingredients and has a nice coconut scent. It absorbs quickly and leaves skin feeling soft and healthy. It is one of my favorite lotions.

  My overall option on Stream2Sea is: If you are looking for an eco-conscious product then this is likely on of the best options on the market. For me, I think I will stick with spray on coppertone.

  Nice clean, amenities

  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.

  Goblin Valley State Park Campground

  Great campground with a shelter!

  Each tent site has a pad and a shelter that has a shade panel. There is no parking next to the site, but it is small walk to the site. The tent sites are spaced far apart and some are tucked behind the Goblins.

  There is a good restroom facility with running water and showers that do not need a token or coins. There are 4 showers. Overall, this is a great place to stay.

  Goblin Valley State Park Campground

  Interesting location

  Utah has such a wide variety of geology and Goblin Valley campground is in the middle of it. Sites are a bit close together, but they have shelters over the tables and there are some walk-in tent sites that are more secluded. Nice, free showers too.

  Goblin Valley State Park Campground

  Wonderful Campground !

  There are only 11 asphalt paved RV camp sites. There are 14 tent sites.
  Each site has a covered pavilion with a picnic table, fire ring and a tent site. Drinking water is located throughout the campground. The bathrooms have flushing toilets and hot water in the sinks. They are spotless! The showers are equally as clean. There are no bad views here! The hiking and biking trails are right there. This one is one of my favorites! Go!

  Great Location Near Arches, Canyonlands & Other Desert Parks

  More of an RV & trailer campground, but they do have a row of tent sites. Each tent site has a picnic table and space for your tent and car, but not much (if anything) else. Unfortunately we had LOTS of ants on our site when we stayed here overnight in late June. Thankfully there was a flatbed trailer parked right next to our site and we were able to pitch our tent on the trailer, safe from the ants (thank you awesome couple from Chicago who let us use their trailer!). The staff was very friendly & there are plenty of facilities (showers & bathrooms) and WiFi for campers, too!

  Goblin Valley State Park Campground

  Never get tired of coming here!

  We came in winter this time and got a tent camp easily, only one other group was camping. If you dont want to tent camp in the winter they also have yurts for rent. We had a different approach to Goblin Valley this time around and decided to do the Lair of the Basilisk (Goblins Lair) canyoneering route. We got to hike in and around snow covered hoodoos that culminates in a 100' drop into the lair! It is truly a magical place and worth a visit! You can also get ti the lair by a now popular marked trail around the east side of the park. 60 m rope recommended plus helmets.

  Tent camping in October, area was clean and pleasant. No covering to get away from the sun. Would only camp here during the summer as a last resort or if I pack shade.

  Easy, beautiful BLM campsite

  The campsite was perfect and easy for us! We pulled in and paid $20 for an open tent site, and pitched our tent right along the Colorado river. I’d recommend buying firewood in Moab.

  Great amenities but bad tent sites

  Laundry, large kitchen, communal space, and showers. Everything you need on the road but the tent sites barely fit a tent and are squeezed against the fence. Stayed in van and the spot was tight.

  Nice amenities

  We stayed at the tent sites. Great amenities, clean bathroom and showers. Lots of food stores near by. No fire pits, only grill. One of the negatives, close to busy street.

  Great but small sites

  We stayed here randomly, tried to find hotels in town and the only available one was 500$ for two nights. We decided to call and see if this campground had any availability and they had many tent sites open. The sites are fine, covered in a canopy so rain isn’t a worry. But they are small and parking isn’t very easy for the tent sites. The showers and bathrooms were clean and fine. The only other complaint we had was no wood fires, but you can rent a propane fire pit if you’d like. There’s also a pool, that we didn’t use. We did have some road noise. But overall would stay here again for sure. I think I paid 86$ for two nights.

  Old funky hippie hideout

  This is a very small about 10 RV spots with full hookups and about 6 tent sites. $60 night RV, $25 tents. Area is old, run down and funky...looks like most spots are long-term types. If you like funky, this is your place.

  Good basecamp for adventures

  Good place to start adventures in the area. Sadly little space between sites resulting in some parking lot vibes at least for the tent sites. Facilities and pool are definitely great, still a little on the expensive side though...

  Goblin Valley - breathtaking

  Goblin Valley is a beautiful area. We camped about 20 minutes from the actual valley. Plenty of space for big groups. Easy to get trailers there. Good for tent camping as long as you have a tarp to lay down first since it’s a bit rocky. Dogs are allowed. It’s a beautiful area.

  Good overall experience. Staff friendly upon check in. Sites are a little close together. No fire rings for rv sites, tent sites only. Mature trees, walking distance to downtown. Grocery store right next door. Military /first responder discount! Definitely would stay again.

  Nice glamping!

  Very few tent campsites in back by parking. Nice area and easy camping but not necessarily a beautiful campground. Community room w kitchen too! Warm bathrooms with free showers!
