We stayed at Spanish Trail RV Park just south of town and liked it. The sites were fine--we were in a motorhome. The views were really pretty and the park was quiet. There was a nice big area to walk our dog.
After Arches and Canyonlands, I would definitely recommend Dead Horse Point State Park for beautiful views. Also just north of town, There is scenic Hwy 128 which runs alongside the Colorado River--lots of great views and one of the pull-offs is a short drive to Fisher Towers, one of the rock formations is the one used in the Citibank commercial of the woman rock-climber! Also, not long after you begin the drive, you will see the Red Cliffs Lodge. They have a wonderful free museum with lots of memorabilia from the many movies made in and around Moab.
Just for fun, you might want to visit the Hole in the Rock, just south of town!
We loved Moab and the surrounding area--hope you enjoy as much as we did!
Thanks to all for your comments, and LindaAnn thanks for the extra info on Dead Horse Point as well as the other things to do in Moab. I don't know anything about Moab but I have seen pics of it and I hope it all works out that we get to see a lot of it. I am not sure of my time line for our stay as I do have a deadline for my return home. So, not sure how much time to allot to our visit in Moab and be able to visit Arches and surrounding area, any suggestions on amount of time to do these things?
