Amazing place with a stellar view, great for our large group. Beware of mosquitos because they will eat you up.

Our group loved this site. The kids liked being near the water. The only issue is noise from other groups carries through the campground easily.

The Gold Bar group sites are a beautiful setting - lovely canyon and amazing stars at night. Campsite was very level and clean. Picnic area worked well for us. We had RV's and had an easy time figuring out how to set up and use the site. Beautiful!

The Gold Bar campsite is beautiful, clean, and perfectly located. It sits right on the Colorado River, and the canyon views are unmatched. I have stayed here many times, and will continue to do so year after year. One of the highlights are the views at night when it gets so dark you can clearly see the milky way. The trail to the Corona Arch is right across the street, where you can hike to the arch and climb around directly underneath. Access to Arches National Park is about a 10 minute drive away and Canyonlands is about an hour away. Make Canyonlands one of your stops for sure; I enjoyed the views at Island in the Sky better than the Grand Canyon! The city of Moab is also nearby with so many wonderful eateries and little shops. You can also enjoy a hot shower in town! I would absolutely recommend this campsite to anyone looking for a red rock, desert experience.

Beautiful setting! It was a great location as well - right across the road from the corona arch trailhead, 20 minutes from Moab if we had to run into town for anything. It was very spacious and well maintained. Vault toilets were clean, and there was plenty of toilet paper. There were no small trash cans, but there was a large dumpster at the entrance to the campground. The shelter fit two picnic tables comfortably, and there were two others in our campsite. Nice big firepit and charcoal grill. The shelter kept out the rain if it wasn't windy. Overall, great experience. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a dog-on-leash area. Please be aware of that!

This was a fantastic group site, we loved the ginormous fire-pit, and double grill; bathrooms were clean and well stocked with toilet paper (even though people stopped off the road when traveling by to use them!). Location in relation to the Corona Arch trailhead and Jeep Arch road couldn't have been any better. We would absolutely book this site in the future!

Very nice location for a group. I wish there were reservable individual sites along the river!
