Super duper friendly & knowledgeable staff... Plus the camp store is surprisingly nice, fresh & well stocked. I had a long chat with them and was just visiting to check it out. It's my first time ever having dropped in on a kOA... Pretty kewl folks and place. Why 4 stars? Because it was an impressive first time for me with fabulous folks running the office!

Hard to sleep with road noise & bright lights

CONS: Promised cable on advertisement, but it wasn't even hooked up. (So why advertise it) Promised WiFi, but it was worthless. Staff not wearing mask to protect customers. Front sites near road with lots of lights, see photo You are not allowed to select sites on reservation site PROS: Big dog park Sites level & set up well Three RV parks in town. Shady Acres & State park (state park doesn't have cable or internet, but neither does this place) Ok place to stay one night, but we will stay at another park next time through.

Chillin with my feet up.  View of the crops behind T7.

Management did a good job on keeping women's bathroom clean. Showers were clean. Many sites with turf were nice... hope they can eventually do that for all. Wi-Fi was terrible, but that was out of the control of management... that was an ISP issue. Far enough away from highway and railroad tracks to not be bothered.

Our spot for the night!

This place was our stopping point on our way to Colorado Springs. We were surprised when we found out it is only 45 minutes to Arches National park. Even though we only were there for the night we just had to go. The pool looked nice but closes at 8. Out girls were bummed because we got back from the park at 8:30. ‍ Sites are nice and spacious. Not many trees or grass but this is the high desert... ha!! Sites have small loose gravel/dirt with hookups. We enjoyed dinner at the picnic table outside. There is a nice dog park for the pups and some fun bikes to check out when the office is open. There is also a fun kid park next to the tent sites. Bath houses were nice and clean according to my father-in-law. (I will check them out in the morning. )

Loose sand everywhere no gravel made it a very dirty experience.

Terrible KOA do not stay here. There is no ADA compliant restroom available which is illegal as of 1990 when the federal government passed ADA. We had to drive to the truck stop down the street for our disabled child to go to the bathroom and shower. We paid for a "back in" site for our trailer and we were given a pull in site which meant our trailer was facing the wrong way for the hookups and our door would have had to open into the trailer next door and a tree so we had to push our trailer in to our site. There was loose sandy dirt no gravel which made our trailer very dirty. Overall it was a terrible stay which is sad since this was the end of a wonderful long road trip and not the way we had hoped it would end.

Stayed here May 5-6. Very nice park. Nice playground for kids. Dog park was well maintained with shade. Laundry facilities were a bit pricey. Very friendly staff. Wouldn't stay here again unless it was all that was available. Only because it was twice what I normally pay for RV spot.

Do they call this the Green River KOA because of the greenish bathroom stalls or because of its location? Ha ha. But really this place is lovely. This KOA has everything you would ever want from a KOA. The staff is friendly and hospitable, there is a free coffee bar from 8-10 every morning (donations suggested), the place is very nicely kept, the grounds are lovely, the bathrooms are clean, and the Kabins are top notch. The price is also right! I would definitely stay here again! It's a konvenient stop off and launch pad for fun nearby. I just have to give three stars because the internet sucks - which isn't a huge issue but we were trying to make our plans for the next day so was a bit annoying. It seems to be especially trying for Apple products; I frequently got an "incorrect password" message. Lastly and most importantly, the location and ambiance of this KOA do not evoke feelings of kamping. Being right in the middle of town is a disappointment compared to other KOA locations. Perhaps some more trees or landscaping would help. Being right next to another hotel is just odd.

Our site for the night

After driving across the hot barren terrain of Utah we were very glad to be able to stay at this KOA. It was 104 all day and we were so grateful to hook into electricity to run the air in our trailer for the night. This is not a destination spot "bare bones", but it served our needs for a night. Sites have dry grass and gravel, no ambience at all. The pool and laundry close at 7:30. Check in was easy and fast. Just very appreciative that someone decided to make a town and services out here for weary travelers to stop and sleep. Paid $43.00 for the night and our air conditioner never turned off. Oh, there was a museum right across the street but it was closed.

Closeness to the z as Hotel parking lot

Tenting review only...if you're an RV camper...this prolly doesn't apply. Stopped here to pitch a tent based on the add that the tent sites had trees, shade and grass. The good is the owner/host was very friendly. Campground was clean had nice amenities with pool, showers, laundry, all the things you're accustomed to at a KOA. Got a good recommendation for burger and steak. Anyway, back to the tenting; One (possibly 2 ) of the sites had a small tree, the other ones would maybe get a shadow cast from the mostly dead trees and chain link that separate the tent sites from the parking lot of the budget hotel parking lot 50 feet away. The grass is a nice 12x8 section of artificial turf surrounded by what appeared to be nothing short of a moonscape...fine dirt and rock. The sites were nicely raked, and each did have a picnic table and fire ring. At approximately a little after midnight, stars were out...and then the spotlights from the hotel roof popped on as if they'd just been notified of a potential prison break...lightning up the insides of the tent like it was noon, not midnight.

I have mixed reviews for this place. It's truly rustic with some accommodations. I anticipated roughing it, and this place held up to the expectation. The site was clean, friends to dogs, the noise level was low from both campers and the road, and the cabin we stayed in had AC (which was great for July). The only downside that really annoyed me were ALL THE FLYS!!!! So many flys around our cabin, and in our cabin. It was difficult to eat outside with all the flys, which was a shame since there's a pleasant set up with a grill and picnic table.

Our nice site and the Bird Condo in the tree.

I have to say this is probably the most friendly KOA staff I have ever come across. I had a package that was to be delivered on a Saturday and the owner went twice to see if it was at the post office. Seven days a week starting at 8am all campers can go in to the office where the staff has put out a great little selection of flavored coffee , hard boiled eggs and pastry of all types, and they do not charge. The sites are pretty level. If you are planning to visit Arches, Canyonland and more this place is well located. They do warn you not to leave your awning out if you leave for the day as the wind kicks up in the late afternoon. But the wind only lasts about an hour. The sites are dirt with nice grass areas around them and trees.

Left 3 phone messages which they never returned. emailed them and no response. The website only allows you to make a reservation but not to cancel one. So it looks like I'll have to file a credit card dispute in order to get my money back. If this is how they run their business, I'm glad we are not camping there!!

We were on a weeklong road trip. On our way toward Arches NP, we decided to fuel up at the Green…read moreRiver, UT exit. While filling up, we saw the sign for iCamp and decided to check it out due to most campgrounds being full the closer you got to Arches. The price was right ($37.50/night I believe) for full hookups so we decided to stay for 2 nights. The gentleman that checked us in was VERY friendly. After assigning us a site, he gave us the rundown on the local area. Where we could get groceries (and closing times), cheapest fuel, and a nice little map of Green River. The campground itself is pretty basic. A majority of the sites are pull through with back-in sites around the perimeter. Our power box was in good condition and had 50/30/20 amp outlets. The water hookup was right next to it and was also in good condition. The wi-fi signal was good and worked fairly well. The landscaping was pretty sparse. Mostly weeds in the grass areas between the sites. This was really a non-issue for us because it was mostly just a Base Camp for our visit to Arches NP. Plenty of trees for shade. The store at the front office had a few things but not much. Again, not a big deal to us because it's right on the edge of town with an Ace Hardware right down the street. Would we stay here again? Absolutely! I'd go as far as saying that if they improved the landscaping (grass) and maybe added a small playground setup. iCamp would top my list.

I stayed at an Airbnb in this RV park for a night while on a road trip going from Capitol reef to…read moreCanyonlands NP. Honestly wasn't mad at all -- it was one of the permanent RVs and it was very comfortable! I found the place relatively easily since my bnb host gave very detailed instructions. It comes with a parking spot and easy to follow instructions to get in as well. It had indoor plumbing, hot water, fully working kitchen accessories (including a small oven which I didn't use but was nice to have access to!) and a space heater in the bedroom. That heater was essential because it does get COLD at night if you don't use the central air system. The heater worked great though, my little room stayed a nice 73F although the rest of the place did get cold overnight. Of note - the walls are (obviously) THIN. It stormed/sleeted overnight and was windy so I could actually feel the place shaking. It was loud too but I always travel with ear plugs and those combined with an eye mask made it so I could easily fall asleep even though I did feel shaking from time to time with the wind. So come prepared! But otherwise I felt very safe/secure and comfortable. Would definitely stay again on a road trip :)

A great spot for a stay and the service was very nice and helpful. Thank you for that. . In all…read morehonesty we did not check out their amenities but did go see the petroglyphs/petrographs and dinosaur tracks that are all near by as well as the old cemetery.

There is a really nice…read morevisitor center just before you enter the park as well where you can get recs from staff or pick up a map or some other souvenirs). I didn't do the drive into the rest of the park because it's a $20 entry fee and I only had like 20 mins at the time to explore so I didn't think it would be worth it to pay and just drive further in/out for 20 min. But again, even just the view there is absolutely beautiful, the vistas are stunning - like an extension of both Capitol reef and Canyonlands. It's very remote though, so make sure if you really want to explore you have at least a few hours to do some of the longer trails. The little hoodoos are very cute and there are many ways to view them here so if you want to explore these more, this is definitely a fantastic spot (along with Bryce Canyon of course, and some of the small other random hikes through Arizona and Utah eg the Toadstools hike right at their border).

We took this as a side trip and we really should have given this more time. If you are thinking of…read morecoming here, I recommend looking at all the activities offered to see how much is here to do so you won't feel as though you missed out on some of what makes this park FUN! As for us, we ran around the valley, played hide and seek, marveled at how these "goblins" were made and just had a great adventure with the time we had.

We hiked the East Rim Trail, which connects to the West Rim Trail, for a total of about 3.9 miles. I'd rate it as easy to moderate: mostly flat with a few sections of light climbing. The views throughout the hike are breathtaking, and when we went, it wasn't crowded at all. Keep in mind that the park is very hot with almost no shade, so bring plenty of water. If you're traveling with a dog, be mindful of the ground temperature to avoid burning their paw pads. The visitor center itself isn't pet-friendly, but the bathrooms are located outside and accessible. My only complaint is that the trail markers could be clearer--since some trails overlap, it can get confusing. Entry is $20 per vehicle, paid at the gate. We spent about 2.5 hours exploring, though you could easily stay longer if you want to sit, relax, and take in the scenery. Overall, this is a must-visit stop in Moab.

Good god. From I-70,…read morethe 23 miles of some of the smoothest dirt roads I've ever driven was also one of the most picturesque landscapes I've ever seen. I came to see the 2,000 year old pictographs but, honestly, the scenery simply blew me away just as much. I'm sure some of it was due to a confluence of factors: the time of year when autumn yellow and reddish brown tree leaves echo the colors of the towering canyon walls. The late afternoon sun amplified the colors and I was truly overwhelmed. If you want a mashup of the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, and a hefty dose of your favorite trees, this place is for you. The pictographs didn't disappoint, either. While somewhat faded, it was still an honor to see these magnificent images on the face of the canyon wall. Utah's reputation for treating Native American sites with respect is less than stellar. This site is no exception. Fortunately, preservationists repaired damage from bullet holes and other acts of vandalism. However, these images won't last forever. If you visit, respect the history and artistry. If I had known about all the hiking and camping opportunities in this area, I would have changed my itinerary. This is a special area.
