What Guests Are Saying

Horsethief Group Sites offers a spacious and quiet environment, ideal for group gatherings. Its proximity to Canyonlands, Dead Horse State Park, and Moab enhances its appeal for recreational activities. While there is no running water on-site, a spigot at the nearby visitor center provides a convenient solution, and the shaded picnic tables add a nice touch.

This was exactly as advertised. The dirt road to the site might be a half mile. The pavilion is a good size. There was enough room for a few trailers and trucks. It was clean. The vault toilet could have been a bit cleaner but it didn't smell too bad.

We arrived to the site just before sunset, which was AMAZING across the Mesa. We then got up and drive the short (8 miles) route to Dead Horse Point State Park to veiw the equally amazing sunrise. The campground bathrooms (although pit toilets) were clean and the site was clean and in good shape, with a shelter over the picnic tables, a fire ring, and several good tent sites per group site. We were visited by a wood rat, so guests should make sure to store food properly.
Nice campground with plenty of space for a group with easy access to DHP Sate Park and Islands in the Sky (Canyonlands NP). Also not *too* far away are Moab Giants (a dinosaur themed kitchy touristy place, fun for dinosaur-loving kids), Arches NP, and Moab.

I love this campground. Be wary of when the wind picks up though as it's tough to stake your tent into the rocky ground.

Great location, quiet (not many ATVs thank goodness). Good for folks who want to hear nature and not motors. Really nice camp hosts. Close to mountain bike trail.s

We had a group site and loved it! Gorgeous views, clean restrooms (no running water). We were excited by the mountain lion tracks all around our site but never saw one. The campsite was remote and it took us a little time to find firewood and food (drove to Moab after setting up camp). Great location between Arches, Canyonlands, and Moab. Saw a beautiful sunset and sunrise. Can't wait to go back!

Our site was taken by someone when we arrived (their stuff was there but they were not) so we paid $600 for hotel rooms.

It is a very nice, new, scenic group site campground. We weren't really sure where to throw down our tents but I'm sure it will become more obvious in the future.
