About Ken's Lake Group Sites

The Ken's Lake Group Sites are ideal for those wishing to be close to Moab, but away from the local highways. The lake offers swimming, paddle-boarding, limited boating (electric motors only), and fishing. Hiking, equestrian, and 4WD trails are accessible from the campground. The group campsite A has corrals. Within close proximity to national parks and open space, outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy hiking, mountain biking, whitewater rafting, and four-wheel drive tours in the surrounding area. The town of Moab is approximately 15-20 minutes away and has dining, shopping, sports rentals, tour companies and museums.  The Ken's Lake group campsites are available by reservation only through Recreation.gov. Reservations can be made the day of, up to 6 months in advance from anywhere service is available. This is the only option, cash and check payments are NOT available onsite. There is cell service for most providers at the campground entrance. Please contact the BLM Moab Field Office with questions by email: [email protected] or phone: 435-259-2100.

What Guests Are Saying

Ken's Lake offers repeat visitors a scenic camping experience, but this stay was marred by unpleasant restroom conditions. Reviewers noted a strong odor and inadequate cleanliness, including a lack of hand sanitizer. While previous visits were enjoyable, this particular experience fell short of expectations.

Plenty of room for 3 larger or 4 smaller RVs plus at least 4 tent setups. The fire "pit" is more of a fire "well", 18 inch high concrete square about 3 ft square. Plenty of room around it but its height blocks a lot of the fires heat for people sitting in chairs. It is the one thing I would change about the site.

Spacious area for our group (12+). Ramada and tables were great for cooking and eating. Great sunrise and sunset views. One downside is proximity to road leading up to a 4WD/ATV route. Depending on day of the week and time of day, the road noise can be a nuisance.

Great location. Lots of fun. The shelter from the sun was nice. Well maintained.

The campsite is close enough to things in Moab but far enough away from the highway to be quiet. Worked out perfect for us. Great vioews of the hills, mountains, and stars.
