Here is an excellent website for Utah and other southwestern states, especially if you are into hiking.
American Southwest - Utah
Also a good book for hikers is "Canyon Hiking Guide to the Colorado Plateau" by Michael Kelsey. Since you have time to research it might be worth buying. You can get it on Amazon.
The drive down 128 from I-70 to Moab is really pretty. I was there in April of last year and Arches campground filled fast. I think it is all reservable. I couldn't get in so I stayed at Goose Island just outside of Moab on 128 north, and it was nicer than the Arches campground in my opinion. No services but nice area and much closer to Moab than any other public campgrounds. If you prefer hookups there are quite a few private campgrounds in Moab.
Have fun. It is a great area to visit.
