Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway

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.

Check in took 30 minutes. Why so difficult I am always surprised. Unless you got a bus the sites are ridiculous. Sewers are right there picnic table takes up entire space. Plenty of disbursed camping. But once in awhile one must shower

This park is OK, not great but your close to everything. Sites near the road have alot of road noise. The sites were close together and sewer hookups are in your face. Would not stay here again unless I had a site in the back. Cable hookups for me did not work

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.

Literally couldn’t be more conveniently located between arches & canyonlands. Best for a short stay as it’s dusty and lacking amenities, but it’s great for a short stay with easy access to the local sights. Really no complaints in terms of price/value and location!

Would highly recommend this location. Beautiful views in all directions with easy access to both NPs. Only downside was wind exposure in the evenings, but the views of Arches, large RV sites with room to spread out and access to the on-site gas pumps was awesome.

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.

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.

This was a nice RV campground. It was typically cramped, but if you have the right spot the views are awesome. It is well-maintained, bathrooms clean, convenient amenities, nice office staff. The location is excellent for all activities. WiFi was good.

This is the best campsite if you are visiting Moab for sight seeing. We almost stayed in town but everything was booked and we got one of the last spots here. I am soooo glad we didn’t stay in town.

We almost stayed in town but everything was booked and we got one of the last spots here. I am soooo glad we didn’t stay in town. Archview is right in the middle of Canyonlands and Arches National Park. It’s also 10 min from Dinosaur Tracks Trailhead (take Mill Canyon Rd off of 191) our kids loved seeing fossilised Dino tracks! Went to town one night after hiking and traffic into Moab was very busy. Staff was super friendly and helpful with recommendations. Would definitely stay here again! Great star gazing and beautiful view! We were in a premium spot #79.

If you want a fun experience and not a traditional hotel, check Archview out-they have tiny cabins as well as RV pads. We stayed in the Mayor cabin, which had a double bed as well as bunk beds. It also had a table, TV, microwave and fridge.

We stayed in the Mayor cabin, which had a double bed as well as bunk beds. It also had a table, TV, microwave and fridge. There was a shared bathroom equipped with toilets, sinks and showers.As another reviewer said; the pictures don't do the place justice. It's not the fanciest of campgrounds, but I've seen worse. Due to the location being pretty far out of town, the views are spectacular! Yes, there is an ATV trail nearby, and that can get loud, but it wasn't bad. There is also a lot of dust, which you should expect in Moab at a campground.The pool area is clean, although the pool does leave a little to be desired. It's small-like REALLY small...but there is an adjacent splash pad that looks like a lot of fun for little kids.There are ample grills and seating areas throughout, so bring something to grill. There are also shared/community fire pits to hang around at night.The onsite gas station and convenience store are just that-convenient-but pricey. Plan ahead to get gas in town for 50cents per gallon cheaper.

Great location for visiting Arches NP and Canyonlands NP. We were hear in the middle of August which is a very busy time for the Moab area. Much cheaper than trying to stay in Moab.

Much cheaper than trying to stay in Moab. Park has everything You need including the best bathrooms that We have ever experienced in an RV site. The only negative is it is located next to the highway but You don't hear it during the day inside the RV because the A/C is always on as it is 101 outside. If Your going hiking in ether park in August get up early and be at Your trail head by sunrise.

Stayed here for the whole Jeep Safari. Loved it here. Away from downtown Moab, quiet and beautiful, we enjoyed it here so much we have already made our reservations for next year. Internet is horrible - but we want to be on vacation so we didn’t miss it. You can pay for extra data if needed but I don’t know how good it is. There is...moreStayed here for the whole Jeep Safari.

There is a country store on the property but prices are high on food and necessities. The staff was friendly and helpful.

We arrived here BEFORE they changed the network over to SunWiFi. Before the change we got a consistent 6M download. We work full-time out of our trailer.

Before the change we got a consistent 6M download. We work full-time out of our trailer. We were happy with the WiFi speed for the $50/night fee with full hookups. Towards the end of our stay, they changed the network over to SunWiFi (the campground was bought by Sun Resorts). After the change, it was 0.1M download. We called service and the front desk. Apparently, it's a Sun Resort policy to throttle network bandwidth that low for each device. I can't imagine how frustrating it would be if someone was using their own WiFi router.In short, clean park, close to stuff, but if you'd like to have WiFi… go elsewhere.Also, the cell reception is very bad here. So, you're basically, in a data dead zone. However, if you boondock 0.5 miles up the road, cell service will give you 20M download.

We were hoping to stay here over Labor Day Weekend 2018, but had issues from the get-go.

First, we couldn't make a reservation because they were under new management and the reservation line was not linked yet. Then the direct number they gave us just went right back to the same reservation line. We drove there anyway and were told that it would be $73 per night for our family. Whoa! Not what we expected. It does look to be newly remodeled/updated with a pool and such. These rates seem to be on par with other Moab RV resorts. We ended up staying in a free BLM site down the road and went swimming at the local pool so we could shower.

I visited Arch View for about a month and was pleased overall. Moab is tough for RV parks. They are all dusty and with small sites.

They are all dusty and with small sites. I was happy here.Location: It is a good location for easy access to Arches, Canyonlands and Deadhorse SP. It is also a good location if you are into ATV's, dirt bikes, etc. If you need to be in the city of Moab very often it might not be your first choice but I didn't mind the 15 min drive into town (gorgeous commute).Noise: Because of this there is a lot of ATV action throughout the day. They have fairly strict rules regarding these vehicles though so I wasn't bothered by it overall.Sites: The regular sites are very small. I had a premium site for part of the time and would choose a premium site next time.Public Areas: The bathroom areas were kept very clean. They were a little understocked (tp, soap, paper towels) on busy weekends. There are two bathroom areas, one is very nice the other is clean but old and small. Their septic system was smelly in the bathroom areas at times.The staff was exceptional. They were friendly and even worked hard to accommodate me on a busy weekend because I had messed up my reservation.

It's a good location for accessing Canyonlands and Arches quickly, or many of the mountain biking/atv trails directly accessible from here. That's also a negative because of the people it attracts, there is a bit of extra noise from the atv's, but the owners do not put up with anyone acting ridiculous, this is the nature of Moab though...moreIt's a good location for accessing Canyonlands and Arches quickly, or many of the mountain biking/atv trails directly accessible from here. That's also a negative because of the people it attracts, there is a bit of extra noise from the atv's, but the owners do not put up with anyone acting ridiculous, this is the nature of Moab though, it's noisy everywhere. The bathrooms often have the lovely aroma of sewer gas and the showers have ridiculously short shower heads, these are the main bathrooms, but you can walk to newer ones that have very nice showers and do not stink. The sites are super close together and small unless you pay more for the premium sites. If you stay here long term be prepared to move sites every few days unless you book way in advance, they will not shuffle things around to accommodate you. We will look for a better place next time in Moab, it's not bad here, I just feel like there has to be something better.
