RV Camping near Mexican Hat, Utah

Canyonlands Basecamp

Canyonlands Basecamp in Monticello, UT, offers RV sites in both pull-thru and back-in layouts, with site-delivered WiFi and a picnic table at each site. Be clear about what this is before booking, because the park is clear about it themselves: this is a low-density camping retreat, not a packed full-hookup resort. Contact them for hookups, site count, amp service, and maximum rig length, and plan to be more self-sufficient than you would at a serviced park. The basecamp is rated big rig friendly and has a dump station and firewood on site. Pets are welcome. Picnicking, off-road access, and some of the darkest sky in the lower 48 fill the property. It's built for RV campers, tent campers, overlanders, and anyone who would rather stage from quiet ground than sleep in a full park. Monticello sits at the edge of the Abajo Mountains in San Juan County, with Canyonlands National Park, Arches, Bears Ears, and the broader canyon country all reachable — and with far less pressure on lodging than Moab an hour north. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Call ahead about hookups and rig fit; this is the kind of place where that conversation matters.

Riverwood RV Resort

37 RV Sites

Riverwood RV Resort in Mancos, Colorado, offers 37 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet, open all year in southwestern Colorado. Sites are bookable individually by number, with a clubhouse, library, laundry, and WiFi serving guests using the resort as a base for the Four Corners region. Thirty-seven sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 60 feet, with site WiFi. Sites are listed and reserved individually rather than by category, so you know exactly which spot you are getting. Laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side, and the resort stays open year-round — worth noting at this elevation, where many properties close. A clubhouse and library cover indoor hours, with picnicking areas on the grounds. The amenity set is practical rather than programmed; guests here are out exploring during the day and want a comfortable, quiet site to return to. A river, golf course, boating, and off-roading are all nearby. Pets are welcome. Mancos sits in Montezuma County in the heart of the Four Corners region. Mesa Verde National Park is the headline attraction, with the Durango and Silverton scenic train ride, Four Corners National Monument, dude ranches, zip lining, and gold mining tours all within day-trip range, alongside some of the best hiking in Colorado. Summer Mesa Verde traffic drives the peak, with fall color in the San Juans bringing a second wave. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

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.

Sun Outdoors Moab Downtown

96 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 26 Tent Sites

Sun Outdoors Moab Downtown offers 96 RV sites, eight cabins, and 26 tent sites in the heart of Moab, Utah, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and a splash pad — all pull-through configurations. One detail to check before booking: sites are sized to 37 feet, which is short for a Moab base, so confirm your rig fits. Ninety-six sites run in premium pull-through, 30/50-amp pull-through, 30-amp pull-through, water-and-electric pull-through, and combined water-and-electric RV/tent configurations, sized to 37 feet, with cable TV, site WiFi, and picnic tables. Eight cabins and 26 tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, propane fills and exchange, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The property was formerly Canyonlands RV Resort & Campground. An outdoor pool and splash pad anchor the recreation, with a playground, pavilion, dog park, and community fire pit across the grounds and planned activities through the season. The downtown position is the real amenity — restaurants, outfitters, and shops are walkable rather than a drive away, which matters after a long day in the parks. Pets are welcome. Moab sits between Arches and Canyonlands National Parks in Grand County, where the Colorado River has cut through Entrada and Navajo Sandstone to create the densest concentration of arch, canyon, and mesa geology in the American Southwest. The central location minimizes driving to both park entrances, and off-roading is immediately available. The resort is open all year. Spring and fall are peak in Moab, when temperatures suit hiking — reserve well ahead for March through May and September through October.

32 RV Sites

Lake Powell Gateway RV Resort in Big Water, UT, offers 32 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 60 feet.

All carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a picnic table, and a barbecue, and ADA-accessible sites are available. EV charging is on site, which is worth knowing in a corner of Utah where it is scarce. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills, a clubhouse, and a recreation center with a game room and arcade cover the rest.

Canyons of Escalante RV Park

28 RV Sites

Canyons of Escalante RV Park in Utah offers 28 full-hookup RV sites at the gateway to Grand Staircase-Escalante, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Extended, premium, and standard categories join a pavilion, laundry, showers, firewood, and on-site dining. Twenty-eight sites run in standard, premium, and extended categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Three tiers keep booking simple, and the extended category gives longer rigs the room they need. Sixty feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. A laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, a pavilion, and on-site dining handle the practical side. Office hours run Monday through Saturday, 9am to 5pm and subject to change — an on-site kiosk handles arrivals outside those hours, with staff available to assist. The amenity set is deliberately spare, and here that is correct — guests are in Escalante for the canyon country, not for programming. Hiking runs in every direction and offroading is nearby. Pets are welcome. Escalante is the primary gateway community for travelers entering Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument from the north, and the position is genuinely privileged. This is among the most remote and geologically spectacular landscapes in the American West — slot canyons, the Hole-in-the-Rock Road, Calf Creek Falls, and Highway 12's route over Boulder Mountain, with Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef both within reach. Spring and fall are peak in southern Utah, when the slot canyons are safest and the heat manageable. Reserve well ahead for April through May and September through October.
