Bathrooms were very gross and our campsite was right on an ant hill. Would not go back.

VERY windy. There isn't potable water onsite so come prepared. There is also minimal shade. It is a reliable place to pitch a tent though and easy to get to Arches.

This spot was awesome. It was the perfect distance away from the "hustle and bustle" of Moab with all the necessary amenities. We were able to enjoy both the lake and the nearby waterfall. The only downside was the wind and difficulty getting our stakes for the tent and easy up in the ground. Luckily there were enough rocks around to keep us from flying away. Our tent was definitely put through the ringer, though! Would highly recommend this camping spot. It was quiet and lovely.

Our campsite was awesome. Even though it was near bathrooms (site 38a), we felt that we had a lot of solitude. The babbling brook nearby made for serene white noise at night. The drive to Arches was about 25-30 minutes, so keep that in mind for planning purposes. On our second morning, we arrived to Arches at 7:50am and they were already turning away new visitors, so a tip for Arches: monitor their Twitter account and plan accordingly. Highly recommend staying here!

Views from B loop towards the canyon walls were incredible! Adequate shade for tents on B loop. Only drawback was that there was no water at the campground

It was our first experience dry-camping and Ken’s Lake was a great location! The sites were spacious and scenic. The lake was a little far to walk on hot days so we drove. The kids loved cooling off in the lake which wasn’t too deep. There was also a little waterfall nearby which was so refreshing! The proximity to Moab made it super convenient for take out or groceries whenever needed. Closest dump station we found was Mavericks in town. Also, loved that Arches and Canyonlands wasn’t too far away!
