Ken's Lake Campground

Campground was easy to locate and a convenient distance from Moab. Facilities were solid. It was HOT during our stay (early June) and campsites were very much exposed to the elements: no shade, blowing sand, etc. Fortunately, the lake is right “next door” so we spent the afternoons in the water waiting for the heat to let up. The lake was definitely a key positive of this campground.

The campground is on gravel, at the end of a gravel road. It would help if the signage were better to determine where the spot is located. Many sites are uneven. We were close to the restroom, which was fine, as expected for the type of campground.

Very nice campsite. Right across from the bathrooms and not too far from the lake. The bathrooms were well maintained—stocked with both toilet paper and hand sanitizer—and were some of the better smelling vault bathrooms I’ve been in. There’s a nice tree that can comfortably shade ~four people in camping chairs, so we didn’t need to pull out our shade shelter. The foot long stakes that we used for our tent were very difficult to drive into the gravel ground. My only concern was that the fire pit was pretty close to a field of dry grass, so we had to keep a close watch on our fire. If you’re interested in hammocking, there’s not a ton of readily available trees, but we didn’t need to find some near the creek after bushwhacking a little bit.

I like the location. It was nice to be near water and the town of Moab. There were some rowdy groups in the campground. Kids (highschool age) were continuously walking through my site as a shortcut to the lake. One night there was a group doing cookies for hours in the gravel parking lot and then one of their children ran off when it was time to go. There were people yelling in the woods, women wailing crying, and sheriff's searching for hours. If it wasn't for the low class clientele I would have had a better rating. They need someone onsite to keep this stuff in check.
