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.__
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.

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.
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.

Needles Outpost at Canyonlands is a privately owned dry campground at the entrance sharing a border with the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park in southeast Utah, just a mile and a half from the visitor’s center. The Needles Outpost combines the fun of rustic, primitive camping spots with a few modern conveniences.
The Needles Outpost can accommodate both RVs and tents. We do not reserve specific sites, and they are all first-come, first-served. Reserving a site guarantees you one. All sites are dirt pads. We only specify RV and tent sites so we know the sizes of RVs and we don’t fill up with larger RVs that wont fit in all the sites.
This is a quiet, private family campground with a bathhouse that has flush toilets and token-operated showers. We have Camping Rental Items (tents, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, cots, and coolers) available if you email ahead to reserve them. Visitors staying with us fall asleep the quiet desert and wake up to natural morning light shining on the Needles of the Canyonlands National Park. Services
86 Octane gasoline only
General store where we sell firewood, ice, cold drinks, ice cream, camping supplies, camp food, snacks, and toiletries
All sites include a fire pit and a picnic table
No water, sewer, or power hookups
Rental equipment: tents, bags, pads, charcoal grill, chairs
About 5 miles outside of downtown Moab. Very clean, amazing staff, dog friendly. I would give more star, however, we paid for a premier pull through full hook up’s site and it was situated just above the dump station. We have a 40’ Alliance Toy Hauler. We were not familiar with the campground. I would recommend staying in sites #100 and up if you’re in a large rig. Would definitely return knowing what we know now. Immaculately kept campground!
Found this campsite using this app. We ended up staying 2 more nights. All facilities are very clean, showers are great, the kids just loved the pool. We stayed in a full hookup tent site, which has nice shade. You can hear the highway and AC's from the Airstream Park. But not too loud. We didn't mind. Campground is ideal for visits to Arches (5 minutes to entrance) or Canyonlands.
This park is very close to Arches entrance, so we chose it, that and we have stayed at several Sun properties. So we paid the higher than average price in the area to stay there.
The folks at check in we very nice. Once we were at the site, we noticed all camp side tables and pad were shared. 2 tables about 10 feet apart. That is why in the rows, one RV parks north the other the south. Whoever thought this up, hopefully he is out of the business. Our common site folks we nice and wondered what table was theirs. You can't help meeting people here. :-)
Growled at by mountain Lion 100meters from climb up to campsite. Amazing. So textured and layered. Loved just staring at everything. Fun climbs to top of canyon. Bring more water than you think.
We arrived last minute on memorial day weekend and were able to get a spot. Helpful hosts. Well maintained bathrooms. Kid friendly nighttime ranger talks in the amphitheater. Great starting point for several hikes
All you can ask in a koala like campground
Large site very close to the water. We paddle boarded in the reservoir and jumped off a few rocks. We stayed 2 nights.
Booked a cabin to have A/C for a few nights in the heat. A/C quits working at 10:00pm. After hours calls x3. No response.
Much fuller and more crowded than 3 yrs ago when we visited. Took only place we found, closer to the dock and more traffic than preferred but still beautiful.
Great experience! Really helpful staff, clean and quiet sites, and lovely views.
When we arrived with my 21 foot travel trailer, we were told that site 28 can be difficult to park in due to the angle and size, but just as panic started to seep into this trailer-newbie’s brain, they said, “But don’t worry, Jake can help you park your trailer into the spot.” And he did! Jake was super helpful and within 5 minutes my RPod was happily parked at site 28!
The site was clean, with water, sewage, and electric hookups on the left side. It comes with a picnic table and fire pit (fire wood can be bought at the shop).
I was remote working, and the wifi worked pretty well (I just had issues once during a meeting when video + screen sharing was on).
The site is right on the La Sal Mountain Loop, which is a beautiful drive up the mountain and down through Castle Valley and along the Colorado River.
We really loved our stay.
We visited April 2024. The proximity to Moab, Arches and Canyonlands is ideal. The sites themselves were pretty packed in there so we didn’t have a ton of space outside our camper (21’ with one pop out). The restrooms were conveniently located and very clean.
We loved the large tent pads and covered dining area with pantry (yes, a pantry!). The staff kept the campground clean and tidy. We found it to be an excellent base camp while exploring the Moab area, including Arches and Canyonlands.
We adored it here. Came thru with two adults and two girls in a van on way from Taos New Mexico to Moab. Loved meeting Amber and Oscar. Wonderful rocks to climb for a sunset view.
This camp is advertised as dispersed camping since it’s free but it actually has an outhouse, fire pits, and tables. Right next to the river inside a canyon it’s hella beautiful. Only tricky part is getting there. You have to have high clearance to get through the bumpy, rocky road leading to the camp. I have a crosstrek so nothing crazy though. You have to drive through some farmland to get here but don’t worry you’re going the right way. Gets very cold at night since it’s in a river canyon but other than that no complaint.
When returning from the camp it took me 20 minutes of driving on rough dirt road, a lot longer when I came in, at night, going downhill. So don’t beleive maps when it tells you you’re 5 minutes away
Nice spacious sites with fire pit and table
We camped in one of the small RV spots. It was nice that we were the only ones on the north side of the campground. Very quiet and peaceful compared to the summer months. The bathroom was closed for renovations on the north side so we would have to walk or drive to the south side for the bathroom. Other than that, amenities were nice (electric and water).
We booked for 10 days around. Christmas and New Years. We’re meeting family for holidays.
Full hookups were nice and we got them for $42 a night.
Staff was really friendly and location seemed secure.
Quick access to national parks and other trips.
We stopped here in the off-season. Very, very quiet with great views of lake and mountains.
General: Privately owned campground just outside Canyonlands National Park. Caleb and Amber purchased the campground in 2017 and are working to keep it maintained and update it as time and funds allow. You can reserve and pay ahead of time, but site selection is first come, first served, starting at 11 am. We arrived at 3:30 pm and there were about four sites left to choose from. Small and large group sites are available as well as a couple of teepees. No hookups at all.
Site Quality: All are red clay dirt and of varying levelness and length. Sites come with a picnic table and a fire ring. IMO, even though our site was not completely level, we ended up with a great site as we could sit up on the rocks above our campsite and watch the spectacular sunsets. I would definitely choose this site again!
Bath/Shower house: Flush toilets and running water. Soap and paper towels were provided. Showers are $3 for 5 minutes for campers ($10 for non-campers). Didn’t use the shower so cannot comment on how well they work.
Activities/Amenities: Enjoy spectacular sunsets. Caleb encouraged us to climb up on the rocks. Site 12 had a nice flat spot that was easy to climb (we easily brought our camp chairs) and great for viewing the sunsets and also for yoga. WiFi is available for $10 per device per day but we didn't take advantage of this. Other than that, there is zero cell service. There is a small store that has ice cream, a welcome treat after a Canyonlands hike! It is a short drive to the visitor center and to various trailheads. You are closer to the Needles District.
It had been 35 years since we had been at Canyonlands, so we looked forward to returning. Caleb and Amber’s warm welcome, the fabulous sunsets, and the quiet vibe of the campground quickly won us over. Just make sure you look out for red ants; we had an industrious group in a large ant hill at our site. We would definitely return!
Great location for Arches, Canyonlands, and Moab. People love Moab but I did not care for it. Extremely busy area and campground. Sites are ridiculously close to each other. FHUs, laundry, restrooms and showers available. Very nice pool and hot tub. But again extremely busy campground with ATV traffic along with regular traffic. Proper Brewing is a few minutes walk from campground and had a great dinner and drinks there.
Beautiful and secluded, good facilities, great views!
General & Site Quality: 56 electric sites, walk-in tent sites, and nine yurts in two loops: Kayenta and Wingate. Paved driveways, mostly level, a tent pad, fire ring, and a sheltered picnic table (from sun and wind) complete the electric sites. Back-in sites are on the inside of the loops while pull-thru sites are on the outside. There were three camp hosts in the Wingate loop, more than I usually see.
Bathhouse: Eight individual units in each loop with toilet, sink, soap, and hand dryer. Although the toilets were automatic flush, they didn’t always do the job and often took multiple tries. One toilet was clogged. There are also some vault toilets. No showers.
Activities: Nice and easy hiking trails. You can hike the west rim and east rim trails to make a loop for approximately five miles (depending on how many overlooks you include). Some trails are better marked than others, but we enjoyed a west-to-east rim hike from and returning to our campsite in Wingate. Designated mountain biking trails.
Unfortunately, we could only snag one night here but would have liked to have stayed longer.
We came across Needles Outpost on our road trip across southern Utah. After some nights of dispersed camping, this was a welcome treat. The camping grounds were pleasantly spaced and we did not feel like we were on top of other campers. Amber, owner of the site, was absolutely wonderful and we enjoyed stopping into the outpost to chat with her. Amber had a store with crucial essentials that you may need, firewood (which was thick logs that go a long way!), gas for when you’re in an absolute pinch (nearest gas station is 30-40 miles away), and bathroom with showers (must purchase tokens, similar to NP sites). We did one night staying at site 4 and a night in one of Ambers canvas (glamping) tents. Both were extremely well kept and had beautiful surroundings. The sunsets over Canyonlands NP and the star gazing were outstanding and alone made the stay worth every penny. If we ever find ourselves back in the needles region of Canyonlands, Needles Outpost will be our overnight stay.
We arrived in Arches and spent the day exploring. Devils Garden looked fully booked on the recreation.gov website, so we were planning on finding some BLM first come first serve spots nearby but decided to check with the campground host to see if they had any cancellations. The campground host found us an available spot that had opened up and it was perfect! He was so helpful, the campsite was spacious and clean, and they even had flush toilets nearby. Only thing to note is it does get cold at night, don’t let the warm temps during the day fool you! We stayed here late September and it got down to the low 50s/upper 40s. Overall, great campground and wonderful campground host. Would definitely stay at Devils Garden again. :)
We dry camped at this campground because they had no other vacancies. It was a very nice grassy lot, the campground was clean and the people running it were friendly. The grounds were quiet, clean, and people obeyed the speed limit.
The hosts and the amenities make this place something special. The hosts do everything they can to make your stay comfortable (helping out with hookups or change for the laundry). There are indoor AND OUTDOOR showers available, and taking a shower under the dark Moab sky was unforgettable.
The ground here is all rocks, and the spots are simple pull-ins with electrical and city water hookups, with a cover for tenters.
They are working on some things, like a group kitchen, and that makes it even more of a place to “gather” in the future. I’d recommend this as a spot to stay in Moab!
Bear in mind that I think you can only book through AirBNB.
Très bons emplacements. Barbecue individuel nettoyé après chaque utilisation ! Personnel souriant.
