Spotless, comfortable, roomy and just off the highway. And dog friendly! Fit the bill for us perfectly. Everything we needed to cook/grill at home when we wanted to.
Visiting for moab rocks mtb race and wanted to stay away from town. Thompson springs is a nice scenic 30 minute drive from moab and offers solitude and dark skies. Great gravel riding routes in the book cliffs right out of the driveway.
Had a good stay. Tge place was very clean and gave decent accessibility to all the Moab area parks. Check out Thompson canyon. It's a neat little excursion right from town.
Stayed at this location on a family road trip. One of the best stays I’ve ever had while traveling. Gorgeous views, peaceful property, and great proximity to national parks and Moab. Check in/out was simple. Incredibly well stocked location. We would definitely stay here again
This property was a great place just off I-70 near so many awesome parks ! I truly enjoyed the convenience. It was a peaceful, enjoyable place. Nice and cozy with lots of amenities. Loved the wood deck too. Would definitely recommend to others and stay again. Thank you, Teresa
Was a good place for a home base as we explored the red rock canyons and arches. Was pretty well stocked with linens and kitchen essentials. Pleased with the cost of the rental. The manager was extremely helpful with the few hiccups we had and checked in with us that everything was ok. Would stay here again.
All listed amenities were available, including wifi. It was my first time staying in an RV. No issues whatsoever. Clear directions were provided ahead of time and with a notebook in the RV. Easy check in and out. Would definitely stay again. Reasonable price and within 30min of Moab.
An awesome and comfortable RV- all the amenities and no inconveniences. The host really cares that you have a great experience. A 30-40 minute drive to downtown and/or arches national park. RV park is quiet- everyone is super respectful.
Our trip was centered around off-road motorcycling. Ballard had immediate access to great trails and easy access to many, many others. Park model RV was just enough room for us to cook, rest and restore. Parking was generous enough to accommodate our truck and 4 motorcycles and small trailer. Park was super quiet and staff was helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much and would come back again and definitely recommend.
This was a great affordable place for us to stay not far from Moab, Arches and Canyonlands. The RV was very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed including a microwave, toaster and a refrigerator with a separate freezer section. The bed was comfortable and there was good closet space. The bathroom has a walk-in shower. It is a bit of a drive to the national parks, 45 minutes to 1 hour. The online pictures could show more of the kitchen. We would stay again. The drive up the canyon to the ghost town and petroglyphs was beautiful and interesting.
Our stay at the Ballard RV Park was wonderful. Perfect location for visits to Arches, Canyonland and Moab. The Catalina Park Model was very nice, clean and perfect for our stay. Directions and communication was spot on.
Thank you!
The RV park and our RV rental was one of the best stays of a two week trip. The property was clean, well organized and easily accessible. Bonus was the proximity to Arches and other parks. We were the only couple of four who don’t have a RV so having an option to stay on property with them was great! Much better than a hotel!
I've stayed here three times over the last few years. It is a cheaper alternative to staying in Moab, this Catalina is nicer than some hotel rooms I've stayed in! Plus the Sego Canyon Indian paintings are just a few miles up the road and they are fascinating to me! Everything I want to do and see in this part of Utah is within shooting distance of Ballard Campground, it's convenient, right off the interstate, there's a gas station and 7-Eleven right there, you can't beat it! Vacationing out here has become a yearly thing for me, so I am sure I will be back next year!
The property was just as described. 2 nights to be able to cook home cooked meals and catch up on laundry. Good location while visiting Arches and Canyonlands!
This was a first for my partner and I, to stay in a RV on our road trip. We weren’t expecting much, but once we got to the property we were so excited and pleased!! It’s the perfect space for a couple like us and felt completely safe and comfortable. There is even a deck attached to the RV where we were able to stay up late and look at the amazing stars.
This property was my favorite we have stayed in. We had a great time and hopefully we can come back!!!
Other than the picture of the inside and outside not actually matching what I drove up too every thing was great. It had everything that I needed.

I have always enjoyed this part of Utah, but never liked heavy traffic and congestion. That's why i prefer the slow and quiet pace of Thompson Springs ,which is only 30 minutes north of Moab and Arches National Park. Ballard RV park is small enough to be quaint and friendly.
