Top 10+ Cabin Camping in Utah
Utah's cabin campgrounds offer options from basic rustic shelters to fully appointed accommodations with modern amenities. Sun Outdoors Arches Gateway near Moab and Zion Canyon Campground provide cabins with electricity, beds, and climate control systems. Many locations feature picnic tables, fire rings, and proximity to restroom facilities with flush toilets and hot showers. Cabin layouts typically include sleeping areas that accommodate 2-6 people, depending on the size and configuration. Some include kitchenettes with microwaves and mini-refrigerators, while others offer only basic furnishings. "Bathrooms were air conditioned and had a nice shower. Each tent site had a charcoal grill and weather canopy," noted one visitor about the Sun Outdoors facilities.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. While rustic options may provide only the essentials—beds, electricity, and limited furniture—higher-end cabins often include air conditioning, heating, televisions, and more complete kitchen setups. Many cabin sites also provide outdoor amenities such as grills or fire pits, picnic tables, and seating areas. Reservations are typically required well in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons near popular destinations like Zion and Bryce Canyon. Most locations are pet-friendly with additional fees, though restrictions apply to certain cabin types. One camper shared that "staff is friendly and helpful" at several of the campgrounds offering cabin rentals.
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen supplies vary widely between properties—some provide basic cookware and utensils, while others expect guests to bring all cooking equipment. On-site camp stores at locations like Rubys Inn RV Park and Campground and Zion River Resort stock essential items, snacks, and firewood. Cabins near Moab and Zion typically offer better access to groceries and supplies compared to more remote locations like Goblin Valley State Park. Guests staying at cabin properties in Utah should confirm what amenities are included before arrival and plan accordingly for meals, bedding needs, and other essentials.
