Top 10+ RV Parks near La Sal, UT

Spanish Trails Rv Park has a very Friendly staff, is clean, has a small pool, decent internet, and reliable electric. It is close to town and trails. The cites are extremely unlevel, but have a patch of grass are and a small tree at each site. We started at Horsethief State Park campground which was awesome, but an early heatwave of temps over a 100 sent us scurrying for plug in and the ability to run all 3 acs in our 43 foot toy hauler. We used the roll on blocks to level side to side without issue. The pull through are a little tight, so we will be backing out. The Class A’s have had to stop short of level due to slope and ground clearance, but we did not hear of any complaints, and everyone is friendly and happy. It is Moab, after all. The biggest improvement that the park could make would be some shade and a different surface in the pet relief area. The gravel gets very hot, and it’s not fun sweeping up the red dust from the Rv. At the state campground they have a lot of bushes that seed in tiny stickers (we call them beggars fleas in NM—not actual bugs but tiny stickers) that imbed themselves in animals passing by. The labs had no problems, but tough on long eared dogs with soft fur like our Cavapoos, so bring a hair brush.

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.

This isn't a knock your socks off campground. It really is just a giant gravel parking lot with about 5 "sites" along the perimeter. Each site has a relatively large picnic table, fire ring with cooking grate you can put over it, and plenty of gravel parking lot space. There really is no distinction between sites, but they are spaced out reasonably well. There also is a pit toilet at the day use end of the parking lot, a dumpster, and a fenced area for horses.

The views of Courthouse Rock and the La Sals are quite nice. You'd get plenty of sun at this campground, and there's no real shade options, so beware in warmer weather.

Cell service on Verizon is reasonably strong. Plenty for casual internet usage. A cell signal booster or antenna would bring it up to very strong.

Beautiful campground in the Needles section of Canyonlands.

$20/night, and there is a 7 day stay limit within 30 days, and 14 days total per year. 

There are two loops: loop A is first come first served, and loop B takes reservations during busy season (is FCFS in winter), but if there is a spot open it’s available for walk up (no reservations) for one night only.  The campground layout is nice and spread out, and the whole area is so quiet and peaceful. 

There is drinking water here, trash and recycling (plastic and aluminum only), flush toilets (no showers). 

No cell service in the whole park but our WeBoost gave us several bars of LTE, and there is wifi at the visitor center. 

This campground is nice in that there are many hiking trails nearby. 

There are 2 handicap spots, and 1 is available for anyone after 8pm for 1 night only. 

Heads up that the driveway up into each camp site can be steep and/or have a dip so if you have a long vehicle you may scrape. I believe the length limit here is 25ft, we fit fine in our 26ft motorhome. Hosts on site were very nice and helpful. 

Campground is free in winter after the water is shut off (approx mid to late November, usually, depending on weather).

In-town camping well done. Tight, but shaded and quaint camping on level gravel and sand pads and roads; larger RV sites have paved pads; many tent only sites have solid shade structures). Quick access to Arches and Canyonlands (north), Dead Horse Point SP, Sand Flats/Slickrock/Porcupine Rim, and local and in-town trails (Pipe Dream, Hidden Valley, Mill Creek Pathway).

Clean facilities, two bath houses, pool, store, and camping amenities (propane refill, vehicle fuel, lower shaded lawn for games and sports). Short walk to downtown, grocers, restaurants, and city parks. Multiple hook-up options, good WiFi for school and work before adventures.

The cons: management is accommodating for small campers and RVs on small sites, however parking gets pretty tight, and I wish extra vehicle and large vehicle parking rules/recommendations were better enforced.  Public dish-washing sinks need drain filters and a trash can to help "less meticulous" campers keep these public areas cleaner.
