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.
