Dewey Bridge campsite was full and we drove down the road and lucked into the last empty spot. This spot is amazing. The views alone but the history of the site adds heft. Good spacing between sites. RV and tent camping available. Clean composting toilets. No RV hook ups but who cares when you have this view.
We loved Portal RV resort. Clean park with great amenities with adequate spacing. Full hook ups and great restrooms, showers and pool area. Just 5 minutes from Arches National Park and the center of town. Friendly staff and pretty quiet as we were there later in the season.
We will be back!
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.
I typically rate campgrounds as they fit into 1 of 5 categories. This campground will be rated as a Basecamp — grounds that offer a comfortable home base that you’re happy to return to after a day of exploring the surrounding area. Ratings for this category are based on: Value to cost: 3 Overall grounds: 3 Utility of sites (hookups, layout, accessibility): 3 Local Attraction Proximity: 4 Reservation Process/Ease of Getting a Site: 4 Amenities: 4 Customer Service: 5 Cleanliness: 4
I feel like I need to start off by saying that Spanish Trails RV resort was the most expensive RV Park we’ve stayed at... and we’ve been to very nice and central campgrounds. In this case, cost doesn’t necessarily equate to value. They had full hookups, pull thru sites and a nice looking pool. I think the price mostly centers on the popularity of the Moab area and the demand during a time when people are exploring by RV. At over $90/night (with taxes), this felt more like we were being charged for proximity to Moab.
There are a ton to RV parks and even more campgrounds and BLM land around this area. When we were looking to book, we were having very little luck and didn’t want to sit in the summer heat for 5 days without hookups, so we were happy to have found an availability here and swallowed the price.
We were very happy with our stay at Okay. None of the RV parks in Moab are elite class parks but Okay is more than accommodating. Most of the sites are gravel pull through with full hook ups. They have several back in spaces but most of those are used for RV rentals which they also offer. Shade is hard to come by in Moab but each site has a couple trees, a picnic table, and a small amount of grass. The bathrooms are clean with nice showers. Okay is located on the edge of town and a couple blocks off the highway so it is very quiet and peaceful at night. We’d definitely stay here again.
We wanted a to share our time between BLM free camping and having amenities and Slickrock Campground was the only RV park that has space for us. I'll start with the good. Nice showers and large bathrooms. The laundry room was nice and machines were credit card (no coins or tokens needed). The pool is refreshing on a hot day. We had a 35' rv hookup site for a hybrid trailer and 2 vehicles. 30 amp power, water and sewer. That's about it for the good. The bad as of mid October 2020: The sites have no privacy and some sites have 2 picnic tables side by side, one for you and one for your neighbor which makes it difficult to stay 6' from your neighbor to help prevent the spread of Covid. The hot tub is filled with concrete. Which was one of the biggest disappointments. We were really looking forward to a soak after a hard day of mountain biking. WiFi doesn't work and due to construction power is iffy in a lot of sites (multiple people drawing on 50amps).
Construction. The entrance has been moved and is a steep ramp in soft Utah Red dirt. Construction starts at daylight and continues until evening. There's red dust everywhere. Traffic into town is insane due to construction (the the campground's fault) and a left turn out of the campground can be nearly impossible 8am-7pm.
Pack Creek Campground is located in south Moab, in an area that is a mix of new construction infill and old Moab funkiness.
I stayed in one of the creekside tent spots, which are very nice and also very adaptable. There is an area in each one large enough for a tent, with a picnic table and a grill, However, many people choose to go down the rock steps to the creekside area, which is more private and little more separated from the RV park. The lower areas do not have a grill or fire ring due to the low tree canopy, but each has a picnic table where you can set up and use a camp stove. Being here really made it seem like I was not in an urban RV park.
The upper level tent sites are are separated by wooden fencing which allows for separation from neighbors.
At this time (September 2020) there are a number of Covid-related measures in place. Grand County remains under a mask mandate, and wearing of masks is being strongly encouraged when using common areas of the campground, especially the restrooms/shower areas. The tent area is being utilized at half capacity, and those in RVs using the park as a long-term base are required to be self-contained, without access to the restrooms.
The park is very clean, and the manager is on site and available whenever needed. Restrooms and showers are immaculate and well stocked.
Despite being somewhat off the main highway, there is still a certain amount of highway noise at night, something which is pretty unavoidable anywhere in Moab due to the whole place being in a canyon. Light sleepers may want earplugs.
Pack Creek Campground is not within walking distance of downtown Moab, so if you are planning to spend time downtown understand that you will need to drive.
Canyonland RV Resorts is located in the heart of Moab. It's your typical RV resort with all the amenities you will need to include wifi, laundry, pool, shower, grocery mart, propane, playground, and even a gas station at its entrance. The staff is really friendly and always helpful. There are a variety of spots from full-service RV to camping spots.
The main attraction of this RV resort is its location. It's located in downtown Moab within walking distance to all the restaurants, adventure companies, and bars. There's even a grocery store one block away.
The only downside is the traffic noise during the day. At night I hardly noticed it while in my van.
I tried to reserve a site in Devil's Garden Campground in March to camp in July. It was full!!! So we were forced to camp in Moab Valley RV Resort, which ended up being an awesome place to camp. But while we were visiting the park I had to go scope out Devil's Garden Campground to see what I was missing.
Honestly, the campground has plenty of space and is very clean. The problem is there are no showers and it is almost 20 miles from the park entrance. It does have flush toilets. It is right next to the Sky Arch and it is a beautiful area. If you want scenery, book early and stay at Devil's Garden. If you want amenities and comfort, stay at Moab Valley RV Resort.
Customer service here was great. This was a standard RV Resort with pool, nice bathrooms/showers, and store. Road noise was loud, but it was beneficial to us to be so close to Arches National Park.
This is a basic RV park that looks a bit like a parking lot. The sites are close together and all we had was a small strip of gravel with a picnic table super close to the driver side (and open slide) of the RV parked next to us. I would not have enjoyed putting out some camp chairs and hanging out there. But it didn’t matter to us because we were camping in December and it was freezing, so we were gone all day and hang out inside our trailer in the evening cooking inside. You also get noise from the road but all RV parks in Moab are just as close to the road. The positive is that they had full hookups including water even in the winter with below freezing temperatures. The bathrooms were also nice and clean. And the location very convenient for exploring the national parks.
The Portal RV Resort (the North Campground) was an excellent place to stay. It was very well maintained and obviously cared for. The pool and jacuzzi were a great touch to end a long day of hiking all over Arches NP.
Devils Garden is the only campground in Arches National Park and fills up quickly. On top of that Devils Garden does not have showers or laundry and with the high temperatures in the summer, a shower at the end of the day is a must. So your best option is staying at Moab Valley RV Resort. If you are tent camping there are large umbrellas that you can pitch your tent under for an extra shield from the sun. The shower houses are large, modern, and very clean. There is a nice sized pool where you can cool off at the end of the day, and the campground is right on the Colorado River with the mountains in the background. The best part is you are less than three miles from the park entrance. Especially if you have small children, enjoy the Arches and the amenities at Moab Valley RV Resort.
Nice RV park with option for full hookups in the center of town. We were grateful for the amenities and walking distance to a lot in Moab after boondocking for several nights in a row in BLM land. Only down side is how close together the spots are. We were also in a spot close to road and there was lots of highway noise on the weekend of the jeep event in Moab. Otherwise no complaints about this RV park!
So I attempted to go to Slickrock Campground as a walk-in, they didn’t except walk ins. Then came across Moab Valley RV resort and found it to be so easy to self check in/pay with my tear drop trailer. Ended up just needing a car camping spot and parked my vehicle in the overflow parking spot. Perfectly maintained. Has showers, a pool, convenient store, and grills. Had no complaints for this place. Will definitely come again if visiting Moab. And only a 5 minute drive to Arches National Park. All staff were so friendly. I recommend to all.
Campsites were 10 feet from each other, and surrounded by the RV hookups and cabins. If you're looking for a genuine camping experience, you won't get it here. I imagine it'd be a great place for glamping, but I give it two stars since I was under the impression they had legitimate campsites. Facilities and showers were very clean, though, that was a big perk.
It is 110° in Moab Utah today wow! We're staying at the Spanish trail RV Park in Moab. The views out the front door of the camper are amazing! There are gravel sites that are a little unlevel. They have full hookups, a pool, laundry room, bathrooms and a store. The staff is very friendly very helpful. Happy 4th of July! The Wi-Fi has been amazing so far as well as cable TV hookups. It is not very far from Arches National Park.
Moab Rim RV Campark is a smaller RV/Tent campground with full hook-ups (RV) available. It is located right off the main highway. The sites are pretty close together and there isn't a whole lot of privacy to be had. We had a site facing the street and it can get noisy with all the UTV's driving on the street late at night. Thankfully, we didn't spend too much time there as we were exploring Arches, Canyonlands, Deadhorse State Park etc. If you just need to setup a base camp with full hook-ups then it will suffice.
This was our second time staying at Portal. First time we rented a house for a week. This time we took my 21 foot travel trailer and stayed for only one night. Just like the first time, it didn’t disappoint.
Lovely RV sites with super clean bathrooms, showers, laundry and swimming pools (2). Full hookups too for those with water, sewage, and electricity.
Site 1 was a gravel site with a paved bit to the right where a table and chairs were located. This site is at the beginning of the row, closest to the bathrooms, laundry and swimming pool. There’s enough room between the site and the building that you don’t feel intrusive, although at night I could hear people walking on the gravel towards the bathrooms.
The site is also near another property where a very friendly horse lives, who seems to visit the RV park in the mornings and evenings.
We asked management if it was okay to stay an extra 30 mins after checkout, and they were very accommodating.
Small sites, but great amenities at the Moab KOA. Our site was mostly level, pull thru w/full hook ups. Some small trees and bushes between the sites help add a bit of privacy, but you’re pretty much on top of each other. Camp store, laundry and an awesome pool. Great bathrooms, private one person room with toilet, sink & shower. City of Moab as great, free public transportation. You can call a shuttle, through an app, and they will pick up up and take you where ever you want yo go!
Nice Campground for exploring Moab and surrounding area. Clean, full hook up sites, and close to town. The pool area was awesome for cooling off after summer hikes.
We stayed at the Archview RV Resort & Campground in October 2020. It was extraordinarily busy when we stayed, but the staff were friendly and the park was nice. We selected one of their "Extra Large Premium Pull Thru" sites and it was very easy to get into and nicely spaced from other sites. If you've never been to Moab, Utah, you should know that there's very little grass to speak off and if you have pets that can be an issue when they're searching for a place to go to the bathroom (speaking from experience). This resort is incredibly convenient to Arches National Park and all of the area's outdoor activities. There's an onsite gas station with diesel fuel, which we found to be a great resource on our trip. We would definitely stay here again if/when we're in Moab in the future.
Great convenient full hook up park that served us as great base for exploring all around Moab. We stayed here 4 nights. Kids loved the life size checkers and chess.
We got into Moab really late and they had all of our after hours stuff in the mail box. Sights were all pull through and very wide and it’s full hook ups.
Located right off of highway 191, Moab Valley RV Resort is in the perfect location, especially for those looking to visit the national parks. Arches National Park is a short, 5 minute drive and Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse State Park are located 25 minutes away. The quaint town of Moab is a short 5 minute drive in the other direction and offers several options for restaurants, shops, hotels and a grocery store.
The campground bathrooms and showers are clean and well maintained. They also offer a nice dog park and recreation area along the tree line. During the winter the check in center is closed, but they provided us with all the information we needed prior to arrival. Overall we were pleased with the stay and we’re stunned by the surrounding area and all Moab has to offer.
Ballard had some nice long pull thru sites. Full hook ups and reasonable rates. Trees are planted and growing. Close to Moab without Moab prices. Very reasonable. We had a change of plans and got a refund for the day we left.
After our water getting turned on in our trailer by mistake while driving, this site came as a relief. It was just plain EASY. Clean site, full hook ups. It gave us an opportunity to dry things out, have full power etc. They had a dog park. Store, Fuel and food.
A plane flew in 100 yards from our site, the freeway was adjacent, trucks rumbling AND a train track! Ha ha! But honestly, it was easy to get a good nights sleep, even so.
