Sandy Beach at Yuba Lake

20 RV Sites, 6 Cabins, 1 Glamping Site, 3 Airstreams, 1 Tiny House

Sandy Beach at Yuba Lake in Levan, Utah, offers 20 beachfront RV parking sites, seven cabin and tiny-house units, and four Airstream and glamping accommodations on Yuba Reservoir, behind a gated entrance. Boat docks, kayak rentals, and a sandy beach anchor a lake resort in Juab County's central Utah high desert. Accommodations divide clearly. Twenty beach parking sites serve self-contained RVs — note these are beachfront parking rather than full-hookup sites, so arrive prepared with water and power. Seven cabins and tiny houses and four Airstream and glamping units provide furnished lodging for guests without a rig. Restrooms and showers are on site, and a gated entrance controls access. The reservoir is the whole point. Yuba's 22,000 acres on the Sevier River support boating, fishing, paddle boarding, canoeing, and kayaking, with boat docks and kayak rentals on site and a sandy beach for swimming. A recreation center, picnicking areas, hiking, and biking fill the rest, with OHV terrain nearby and a state park close by. Juab County's minimal light pollution makes the stargazing genuinely exceptional — one of the least-visited lake destinations in Utah's reservoir system, and it shows at night. Pets are welcome. Directions: take exit 202 off I-15, head east on Old Yuba Dam Road about two miles, turn left on Old Botham Road at the "Welcome to Yuba Lake Recreation Area" sign, continue about a mile, and the cedar post fence entrance is on your right. Summer boating season drives demand from the Salt Lake City and Provo corridors. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Thirty-six cabins and cottages, three tent sites, and eight Airstreams round out an unusually varied lodging inventory. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The property was formerly Moab Valley RV Resort & Campground. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with a playground, pavilion, and dog park filling the grounds.

6 Tent Sites, 13 Glamping Sites, 19 Cottages, 9 Motel Rooms

HTR Moab Lodge & Cottages in Moab, UT, offers 28 cottage and lodge rooms, 13 glamping sites, and 6 tent sites. The accommodation roster is one of the most varied in canyon country — vacation rental cottages, lodge rooms, safari tents with queen beds, and traditional tent sites.

Moab RV & Glamping Resort

50 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 5 Glamping Sites, 9 Tipis, 8 Onsite RV/Trailers

Moab RV and Glamping Resort in Utah offers 58 full-hookup RV sites, five cabins, and 14 glamping sites and tipis at the gateway to Arches and Canyonlands, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 65 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Back-in sites join numbered glamping RV sites and a dry parking tier. Fifty-eight sites run in back-in, dry parking, and numbered glamping RV categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 65 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The dry parking category gives self-contained rigs a lower rate, which is worth knowing in a town where peak-season pricing runs high. Sixty-five feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Five cabins and 14 glamping sites and tipis round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a community fire pit handle the practical side. The amenity set is deliberately spare, and in Moab that is the right call — guests are here for the canyon country, not for on-site programming. Ken's Lake and the Power Dam are nearby. Pets are welcome. Moab is the adventure capital of the American Southwest. Arches protects the world's highest concentration of natural stone arches, Canyonlands offers the most accessible canyon wilderness in the country, and the Colorado River, the slickrock trails, and Dead Horse Point are all within a short drive. Spring and fall are peak in Moab, when the desert is comfortable and the parks are busiest. Reserve well ahead for March through May and September through October.
