Long time Moab visitor. The only campground that will fit the OP's question since they are not street legal is Archview. However, I will never stay there after having my reservations screwed up two years in a row.

From Archview you can ride some of the trails to the north up around Willow springs boondocking area and a little more north to Dalton wells. This is ok riding and not the wild rock climbing stuff from what I have been on. There may be more if you get maps and explore.
I dont see why you couldn't jump across the highway and get onto Gemini Bridges road and it runs all the way up to Gemini Bridges and then hits 313 which would be about the end of the trail for you. About mid section on Gemini bridges you will see Goony bird rock and there is a side trail to the south in there that goes back to a small campground in a canyon with beautiful rock formations. You can also get on Rusty Nail to the north and Gold Bar to the south. Gemini bridges is just south of 313 near the parking lot and low buck RV parking spot. You cant see it from the highway but Gemini runs along the side of the the rock wall and cuts in to the west at the opening that you see when heading south towards town. I have driven Gemini with my pickup very slowly.
Kens lake is dry camping south of Spanish valley but only gives you access to Metal Masher. It's a beautiful spot with section A out in the open nearer to the lake and section B which backs up to the hills and has a walk to waterfall. You could ride from the camp up into the hills you will see a sign for Metal masher. The entrance to Metal Masher across the stream which goes to the waterfall. Check out the height of the stream bank before entering and having to return. I did it on a dirt bike while hammering the carp out of it.
I have been to several areas around there in the last 3 years but if I had to tell you to go to one place it would probably be Archview. If your MH is your primary vehicle it limits where you can access trails. You also need an orv sticker and it should be ok to cross the highway. Read Ut rules but I believe Az Ut etc honor out of state ORV stickers for limited stays.
Archview has fuel.

Was in Moab this month, Archview is still the only rv park you can access the trails from. Marysvale is great in Sept as the colors are popping and all the passes are open. The only downside to the South Forty is there is a feed lot up wind and last year the flies were bad. We will be at Rocky Ridge RV park next year last week of Aug.in Marysvale. The Paiute trail is awsome and all the towns out in Utah have ATV routes in them (except Moab) where you can drop off the trails to get gas or food.Ride safe and have fun.
P.S. checkout Onion creek out of Moab one of the most fantastic places in the southwest.
Thx, I will be checking it out. What is the best time of year weather wise to plan a visit ? Looking for comfortable temps, not burning up hot and not freezing cold.....LOL

Archview RV Resort and Campground. About 9 miles north of Moab on 191. You can ride out of there on all the trails north of town, 7 Mile Rim, White Wash Sand Dunes, Dubinkey Wells. They even have a gas station. It has been several years since we last stayed there, so you may want to check if they are still ATV friendly.

If don't mind heading west to Marysvale on the 89, South Forty RV Park caters to ORV's. There is a trailhead to 2200 miles of trails at the park. Jim and Terri are terrific park owners.
