Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway

The RV park was OK not much shade. It was gravel and dusty, but to be expected for the area. They advertise Wi-Fi access for the internet, but it's a joke. Their Wi-Fi set-up does not allow VPN access period. When we called Tech Support, they tried to sell us an upgrade for internet, only to find out it still does not allow VPN access. The RV park is very close to Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park.

Our first spot was 22, and was so unlevel, , we complained and they said yes others have as well would you like to move and we did, but the others are ok. Many sites have Berry trees so be carefull as they fall over everything. None of the bathrooms were cleaned during the entire time or soap refilled. Some staff was friendly but others did not even have a hello. Store was. Ok, best thing is location to arches and canyonlands. Trash never seemed to be emptied either. Wifi was good.

This park is average or below, you are paying for close proximity to Arches NP. Lots of ATVs here create dust, dust is on everything. Sites are gravel and are TIGHT, my awning almost hit my neighbors slide. Our picnic table was 2 feet from their utilities. Easy access from I70 on Hwy 191. It was a scenic drive coming from Bryce Canyon.

Showers were worthless, so small I couldn't turn around and the water was luke warm changing to cold. On a 90 deg day probably wasn't heated at all.

The pros: camp wifi worked well, better than my AT&T cell service. Nice view from the farthest out sites.

AT&T cell service was poor to marginal, interrupted streaming. Unboosted RSPR was -105, boosted to -75. We just switched to park wifi. We did not try the cable hookup.

All that said, there aren't many options close to Arches.

**Editor note that this park is now called Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway.**

First off, this review is based on being in one of the extra wide spots (spot numbers in high 80s/90s). Not sure we would have felt the same in other spots.

So we all realize Moab is kind of *^%# for camping these days and crazy expensive. Our hesitation at the cost of this camp melted away by a great view out to the desert and La Sal mountains beyond from our camp. That view alone is what makes up most of this review’s positive vibe. Add in great energy and vibe from all of the fellow adventurers coming and going, great staff, and a nicely heated pool and you’ve got a great experience and certainly one better than other Moab offerings (unless boondocking is an option). The general store and attached gas station add to the great amenities.

Fair warning that OHV traffic is pretty heavy. We like the activity and energy it brings but probably not for everyone.

You're sweaty, a bit dusty and tinged slightly red from a day out in the parks. SPLASH! You cannonball into the perfect temp pool and are instantly refreshed! Your happiness meter increases as the sun sets behind the red rocks in view of the pool. That'll be you if you stay here!

We did a quick 1 night here and it was everything we wanted, which being the dessert was mostly water related - pool, super clean and modern showers, and water refills for the van. Staff was super sweet and helpful.

We also did a hot air balloon ride while in Moab with Canyonlands Ballooning - 10/10 would recommend! It was less scary and more smooth than we expected and Pilot Lou is a great dude.

Resort? Seriously? Gravel and dusty are two appropriate words. Inconsistently clean restrooms and showers. Tight sites with easy hookups and terrible picnic tables with peeling paint and rough wood, although the tent sites had nice, usable tables. Wifi sometimes. Nice pool that needs more chairs. Loud highway noise and children riding atvs in between rows of rvs. We checked out a day early and will never return.
