While kind of on the pricier side for campgrounds I really enjoyed my 2 nights there in early Oct 24. Easy access to get on the road to the cliff dwellings early in the day, flush bathrooms, tons of sites, trails nearby, a little center with a store, cafe, gas, and most importantly showers.
They let you pick your site which is nice so I got a site with a flat spot for my rooftop tent, but some sites are definately more geared to tent camping, but there are tons of site options.
Would stay again.
ScoutTwo nights here. Boondocks go, no water needed, but great location, restrooms nearby. Very peaceful.
Traveler
Cute clean little park out of the way of the Moab crowds. Great stop over in that long stretch of 191.
Guide
Just stayed one night but the site/roads had been recently repaved and park was being updated. Tall pines, good hiking and quiet surroundings made for a good overnight stay.
GuideQuiet spot. Plenty of spots on a Saturday afternoon. Metal picnic tables, fire pits, paved parking spots.
Traveler
Very well maintained campground. Stayed in tent. Bathroom and shower new and very clean. Excellent views.
Scout
Was quiet and convienent to the local town. No signal but there is some at the bottom of the entrance.
WARNING: if you don't have an off-road capable vehicle don't listen to the GPS, it took us down a super sketchy back road. If you're coming from the North, go further down and use Radio Hill Rd to access this site.
GuideDon’t let the dilapidated mobile home near the entrance scare you away. This place is super well maintained. Every site is well thought out and has great hookups. I thought a plug water and sewer was pretty uniform. Our site had a pedestal with 20/30/50 amp and then another with 30 20 feet further into the site. Lots of shade. The sites along the south edge of the property have amazing views of the Cortez valley and Sleeping Ute Mountain. Really nice communal fire pit, dog park and some trails too. Some sites have a beautiful brick fire ring too.
GuideFine for a night. Didn’t think it was anything special but there are showers. Good price
ScoutWe needed a stop before our travels to Colorado. What a gem! Beautiful sites and so quiet. And with our Senior pass (federal national parks) the cost was $10! We didn’t have a reservation but there were many sites open.
ScoutWe stayed at this campsite for one night on our way back to Phoenix from Denver and it is almost exactly half way in between (roughly 6.5 hours from either location) Exactly as expected. Site 28 was calm quiet and had 2 spots for Tents. We used the bigger of the two tent spots and set up a 6 person tent overlooking a heavily forested area.
RangerAttention to detail over the top the owners obviously want to deliver and experience that is hard to beat. Cleanliness like a new house.
ScoutLarge site very close to the water. We paddle boarded in the reservoir and jumped off a few rocks. We stayed 2 nights.
ScoutMuch 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.
Traveler
First, you're paying for location. It's a KOA Journey, so you're not getting any amenities. Overall this is a nice campground. Sites are pretty level and gravel. Bathrooms are basic and clean. Staff is very friendly and can assist with directions and tours.
Traveler
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
GuideGreat Time with great people
ScoutWe stopped here in the off-season. Very, very quiet with great views of lake and mountains.
LegendGeneral: 56-site campground with a mix of 50-amp pull-thru, 30-amp pull-thru, 30-amp back-in, and 30-amp tent/RV sites. All sites have water and electricity.
Site Quality: All sites are gravel and level. As expected in an RV park, there is no separation/privacy between sites. Our back-in 30-amp site had a picnic table, electricity, and water. However, the picnic table was on the opposite side of the water and electricity, which was confusing.
Bath/Shower house: Very clean. Nice hot water and pressure in the shower (turn the hot water all the way to the left to get the hot water going).
Activities/Amenities: Dog park, playground, laundry with three washers and three dryers ($4 per load for both which was very reasonable). Although the laundry did say it was open 24/7, when we checked in, the sheet advised us that the last load of laundry had to be in by 7 pm. There is a store open from 8 am– 8 pm. Horse tours can also be booked from the campground.
We stayed here as we needed to fill up on water and had booked a Monument Valley sunrise tour and the KOA was one of the pick-up sites. We were able to go on our tour and be back before check-out at 11 am. There are nice views from the campground.
Scout
This was such a good place to stay! First of all, manager John really saved the day when we needed to borrow a tent. He was very kind and helpful and made sure our trip continued without a hitch. The amenities are clean and convenient and we really enjoyed the shared kitchen! Perfect if you don’t want to bring kitchen supplies because it is very well stocked! Highly recommend!
ScoutBeautiful campsite, three mule deer strolled through, munching their dinner as we cooked ours. Well appointed store on site along with shower and laundry facilities. Campground had flush toilets— an appreciated amenity.
TravelerPros: staying in MVNP!, flushing toilets and running (fresh) water everywhere, a nice variety of spots to choose from, nice showers available by the trading post
Cons: a bit pricey for what you get (40 bucks for no hookup), distance from the shower/shop requires driving, absolutely zero cell service whatsoever
Traveler
The RV sites are really more of a gravel parking lot. The view might be great for the walk in sites but for RVs you really see more of the cabins backsides or washroom than the actual panorama. Facilities ok, but not great. Also no wifi
RangerSimple campground with clean bathrooms and showers. Bonus to have a fenced in albeit small dog run. Playground is good for older kids, too big for our tot. Not a lot of shade or protection from the wind but we were just there for a night. Great views to wake up to and the night sky was breathtaking.
Road traffic was consistent but not overwhelming
GuideGood showers, some of the camp sites have decent WiFi connection, fairly quiet, and wildlife (deer and prairie dogs) in camp side. Toilets not the best, lots of wasps
TravelerThis place was perfect I had access to trees and a big lake and no one around!
GuideDon't go the wrong way on the road the ranger will get ya, lol. Stars and the moon where great. A lot of people but still super quiet by 830
