Warner Lake

Couldn't get there duo to road construction. Tried the given detour instructions, no luck. Went to route 128 trying to get there via Castle Valley. The lake was 28 mi from 128 but the road construction closure was at the 25 mi mark. A local confirmed that the lake was inaccessible via that route either. As an alternate we found a decent campsite along Rte 128.
Trusting recreation.gov in the future is questionable. I came in from San Francisco, my sister and her husband came in from Denver to meet up there.

Beautiful spot in the aspens, deer walking through camp, much cooler than Moab. Very twisty, but well maintained roads to get there. Nice bike or hiking trails nearby. Campground well maintained. Lake pretty but smaller than expected. Would definitely go here again.

We stayed in sites 2 and 3. We have ATT and had good cell service at camp. Sites were clean and a good size, not too close to others. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was due to the road up to the campsite. Pretty bumpy, but worth the drive. Great access the the Whole Enchilada for mountain biking.

Road to get up there took quite a long time and was a bit rough (despite following instructions under “getting here” on facility information page of campsite on recreation.gov). But - the quietness, beautiful aspens, and secluded campsites were worth it! Deer pestered us a bit (we were surprised at how close they came to us). We were at site 11 and loved it!

I have never seen a night so dark and quiet. I listened for 5 minutes and heard nothing. Totally magic!

This campsite is in such a pretty setting, surrounded by Aspens and just a short walk from Warner Lake. If I'm in the area, I'll definitely stay here again.

Absolutely stunning campsite! A welcome and cool reprieve from the desert. This campsite is very remote and takes about 40 minutes to get to from the main road (mostly dirt road, uphill). Would not recommend arriving at night as it will be quite dark with no street lights. Still, a hugely worthwhile campsite - not to miss!

I hesitate a little to write this but only because I don't want to encourage the whole world to visit this spot. But Warner Lake Campground is the most beautiful campground Ive ever been to. Its not really close to Moab if you want to be in Moab - but if you don't mind driving or don't care about Moab it is 20-30 degrees cooler up there and the sites are simply pristine. The price you pay if a long washboard dirt road from the LaSal Mtn loop. But I think its well worth the price.

This is a lovely spot and treasured by locals and visitors alike. We were there in high winds and the cabin, built in the 1930's was "solid". Be sure to bring twin sheet to cover the mattresses. Bunkbeds need to be updated, especially top bunk to meet code (no guard rail.) There was a little mouse activity and small black widow spiders. There is no camp host this year so do a "little extra" when you depart and let's all take care of this special place.

Beautiful place, very quiet and safe.
