Lower Onion Creek Group Sites

our group reserved the site for sat. There was a commercial group at the site on Friday. Their group had many tents scattered over an area clearly marked "no camping". When noon came and went, the group did not leave. The clients were still on the river. The clients arrived back at camp around 1:00 pm. The group was then fed lunch, and proceeded to begin packing their tents. I spoke with the trip leader several times - he just keep saying they were leaving. They did not leave camp until 3:00 pm. I am positive their group size was well above the limit. This is also a for-profit company, and I am under the impression this is not allowed. We did not camp at the site due to the late hour and heat. I spoke with the BLM re this issue, I was told they have had many complaints about this particular group. I would also question whether commercial groups are given preference in the reservation system. All said, it was a terrible experience.

there is an open pit toilet DIRECTLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS CAMPSITE. How rediculouae is that. You should refund my money

The site itself is nice but the management seems non existent. They didn't have a calendar posted so another group naturally assumed the site was available and setup camp. Thankfully they were agreeable to vacate when we showed up with proof of purchase but they had also already paid which sucks for them. Could have been avoided if the Bureau of Land Management was attentive but they clearly aren't. You can't even get in contact with someone by calling in regards to the site and the answering machine is full.

the 2 things that would make LOC one of the jewel camp grounds in the system would be to but in more, lots more, speed reduction devices. Vehicles drive way to fast, and especially the big commercial rafting buses/oversized motor homes. The vehicle's excessive speed is dangerous to children/pedestrians and creates large amounts of dust. The other aspect is the lack of a minimal shade/weather cover over the tables in the individual sites.

Even in the crappy weather, this was still a great experience. Being able to move the picnic tables allowed us to set our tents up underneath the pavilion, helping us to stay dry.

Cleanest bathrooms EVER!!! and directly across from a most excellent hike to F.Towers.

This is a gorgeous campground. It's about 30 min from Moab but that means that it's not as crowded as the campgrounds closer in. The sites are well spaced. The group sites are especially nice.

Group C is a great site with ample parking. Stone’s throw from the river and an expansive field for kids to roam around in.

Great site, restrooms are primitive, but well maintained. Nice campsites, quiet at night.

This group site that we had was great. All of the sites are far enough from each other that you have some privacy, and the site was very large.
