Very nice spot, easy to find. The area was full each night we were there, after securing it from a group leaving around 10am. It sits right on the Colorado river, making for pleasant sights and sounds. It’s located in a great spot to access Arches, Canyonlands, and Moab. Oh, and the night time sky is wild. Timing is everything in getting a spot, but it seems that early morning and early afternoon are your best bet.

The sign on the highway reads Drinks Canyon campground, but once you enter the campground the information sign reads Middle Drinks Canyon Campground. This nice campground situated between the highway and the Colorado river was full when we stopped. How ever while we didn't get to stay here this is a nice little campground. Nice views of the red rock walls of the Colorado are just out side your tent in all 9 campsites which all sit along the river. Like all the campgrounds in the canyon you are right next to the highway, but the low speed limit and the curvy road keep traffic noise to a minimum. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. This is a first come first served campground. Be prepared campground has no water or trash service. Campground has one vault toilet.
