The tent itself was nice and clean, and the property generally seemed nicely maintained. Unfortunately a ferocious howling wind blew up unexpectedly, which ripped open the tent's door flap (which we'd had cinched down tightly) and throttled the roof canvas; the cold of that wind blew through the additional door curtain and every space that wasn't solidly closed. We also had the vague expectation we could find something to eat that wasn't gas station food or a way to cook something--Ballard's office building has no options for folks to heat up food either--so that was also unpleasant.

I would never stay here again. The bunk beds are so narrow you can barely lie on them. It was so cold because the entire tent wasn't closed properly, and there was a draft everywhere. And the whole night was so loud that you couldn't sleep because the canvas kept slapping against the tent. It sounded like plastic being smashed together. I've rarely spent such a terrible night.

I never heard from the host about how to check in so I didn’t even stay there. I didn’t get a refund or anything. This was a terrible experience.

We stayed in the tent for a few nights. It was nice for the convenience factor; we did not have to set up a tent. The tent itself was spacious and the cots were comfortable, but the top of the tent was not pinned down to the framing well so it would flap very loudly in the wind at night. Also a train went by every night at 12 and 3 am, so we didn’t get much sleep for those 2 factors. The tent is right next to another tent so we could hear our neighbors snoring all night. I will say the private bathrooms in the main trailer building were a nice plus! There is laundry on site, but no atm. We had asked the property management if we could wash our clothes and then go get the money and hand it to them because we had no clean clothes. Unfortunately they said no which was rude. Would not stay here again solely for the lack of sleep and respect.

Great Experience!

My friend and I had a lovely stay! The tent was clean and as expected. My only complaint is how close it is to the railroad tracks. I was woken up in the middle of the night to a train horn that sounded like it was about to blaze through the tent. Although, my friend wasn’t woken up because he is a heavy sleeper. If you’re staying in the colder months, I recommend a space heater. Also, if you’ve never slept on a cot before, definitely bring something for cushioning.

Tent Stay

My stay was in a canvas tent. It provided all I needed to support my visit to the nearby parks - a shelter with electricity, a chair, a cot and a lantern. The restrooms are private and clean.

This location was exactly what we needed. Quiet, comfortable, great price. We only needed the tent for sleeping and acting as a base camp for our adventures in the area. Nearby bathroom and showers were great as well.

Summer Vacation

My time in Moab was memorable, and this place was fantastic because they had everything we needed. From a great place to sleep, BBQ grill to prepare our food, fabulous bathroom, showers, and laundry machine, and this something that I will let my friends know because it will be easier to book this place rather than finding a place to set up your tent and worried for other stuff that you needed to do.

Meh

Arrived to find our reserved tent space was occupied. Called the posted telephone number to get help from on site mgt. Recording informed us voice mailbox was full. Found unoccupied neighboring tent hoping it wasn't reserved by anyone else. After hunting for someone on staff a finally found someone who affirmed we could use the other empty space. Lots of RV and ATV noise as well as nearby freight train running thru the night. Restrooms and laundry area clean.

A hidden gem with compromises

I stayed in one of the tents. The facility is clean, bathrooms - well attended, and my tent was in decent shape. It’s on a wood platform with two cots. You will need to bring a heater and extension cord. It IS the desert, and the nights can be freezing. Important note: the train passes the camp within a few hundred feet. The train crew sees to delight at blowing the horn as the pass near the campground late at night.
