Recommendations for Moab campground

Hi Folks, were going to be in Moab around October 1st and need recommendations on a good campground as this is our first trip to Moab. The rigs are a 36 ft TT and 34 ft fiver. Full hookups only. TIA.

Any good site/attractions would be nice too although we hear most is closed right now.

    We stayed at Portal RV park. Close to town. They have 2 sections, a normal side and a resort side. We stayed on the resort side. It's gated, has a large pool and hot tub and is very nicely landscaped. The normal side is also pretty nice, but no pool , but they do have a swimming pond.
  • We filled up with water at Crescent Junction (it's where to turn south off of I 70 when you are heading to Moab). Dead Horse Point is a must see! We got some great photos, both of the canyon... as well as the milky way.
  • We really liked Archview and it's location. Out of the hustle bustle of town. A few miles north of Arches NP. At road to Canyonlands and Dead Horse SP. Don't miss any of those. Also, if coming from the east take Hwy 128 a few miles after you get into Utah, or take a drive up 128 if you're coming from a different direction. Awesome drive along the Colorado River(thanks Busskipper).
  • X3 Archview. As said it is out of downtown but is convenient to everything that you will want to do.
  • We stayed at Spanish Trail RV Park in Moab a few years ago. FHU and mostly pull-thrus and level sites. It is just a couple of miles south of Moab. Please check their website.
  • We've never stayed in any of the private CG's there, so I can't help you on that, but check out my extensive posts on Moab for things to do and other info you might find helpful:
