Beautiful quiet spot, good fishing and nice cool off if you are there to get to the national parks.

IF YOU STAY AT THE CABIN, CALL AHEAD AND ASK FOR THE PADLOCK COMBINATION!!!
Staying here was a disaster. We got to the cabin before 10pm after driving an hour up crazy winding dirt roads and were locked out of the cabin we paid for. There was a padlock on the door and a note that said to check my βreceiptβ for the combination.
I was never given the combination. I called the reservation phone number and they couldnβt find it either. I called the campgrounds. I called the Moab park ranger. No one picked up.
I eventually ended up calling the sheriffβs office and that was the only answer I got.
I was fortunate to have 1 bar of cell service. My friend had none.
You have been warned!!!

The campsite was very well maintained and the directions on the website and in the confirmation email were perfect! It is close enough to Moab to plan for some exploring there, but far enough away to feel completely connected with nature. I will definitely stay here again when Iβm in the area!

What can I say? This place stole the show for me. A beautiful drive up into the La Sal mountains that any 2WD regular car can do with no issues. The initial pull into the campground there is a dear just off the road a few feet and not bothered by us at all. As we start setting up our tents here he comes about 10ft away in the grass just grazing and watching us for probably 10 minutes. Campsites themselves are very nice, newer picnic tables and nice fire pits. The views..surrounded by aspens in the fall mostly all yellow. Unreal. Such a vibe if you will. Warner Lake has a beautiful backdrop and it reflects amazingly on top of the water. Overall 10/10 worth it in every way.
I will be back here sooner than later for a multi-night stay.

Surprisingly beautiful spot. Wake up to birch trees at sunrise. Bathrooms are clean (just toilet- no showers). Only downside is that it's an hour drive up a mountain and the road is a little scary...

Beautiful and well kept campground high up in the La Sal Mountains. Bathrooms were very clean and well maintained. We will definitely stay again and spend more time hiking the area. In our campsite, several deer would approach us at night while we were sitting at the campfire. Lots of deer in the evenings and during the night. Also, lots of cows in the area so be prepared to wake to the sound of mooing cows, and the occasional elk bugle. One thing to note, we camped in early September and didn't encounter bugs as one might anticipate being so close to the lake. The only drawback for us was the campground was approximately 1.25hrs from Moab and while a good portion of the road is paved from town, the last 7 miles are gravel and washboarding is bad in some places. A very scenic campground in an amazing area of the Manti-La Sal Nations Forest.

Great campground, definitely a long narrow dirt road to get in. Our truck was fine, I know others had pull behinds, I'm glad we did not. 100 will be back.

We came in at night and woke up to the prettiest little campsite! We loved it. The aspen trees are awesome. Camp host was nice.

ATTENTION: For 2024 and 2025 access to the Warner Lake Campground will be affected by road construction in San Juan County. Please access the Campground via the River Road or Sand Flats Road (See below.) The paved route is longer but paved up to the Warner Lake CG turn off while the dirt route is shorter but on a rougher dirt road which is accessible to 2WD vehicles but AED or 4WD is recommended.
Paved Route (Official Detour Route): From Moab head north on Highway 191 to the junction of Highway 128, (aka the River Road.) Turn right (East) and continue for about 15 miles until you get to the Castleton/Gateway Road. Turn Right (South) on the Castleton/Gateway Road and continue straight for about 10 miles to the junciton of the La Sal Loop Road. Turn Right (South) again and continue straight for another 10 or so miles until you reach the turn off for Warner Lake CG. Turn left (ENE) and drive on a washboarded gravel road to the campground.
Dirt Road Route: From Moab, head south on Highway 191. When you hit the stoplight of 4th East, turn left (North). Drive about .75 miles to Mill Creek Road and turn right (East). Continue to the next Stop Sign at the junction of Sand Flats Road. Stay straight and stay on Sand Flats Road for about 1.5 miles to the Entrance Station at Sand Flats Recreation Area. YOU DO NOT NEED TO PAY AN ENTRY FEE IF YOU ARE HEADED UP TO THE FOREST SERVICE OR THE CAMPGROUND--TELL THEM YOU ARE HEADED UP TO WARNER LAKE CG. Continue on Sand Flats Road for about 18 miles until you get to the La Sal Loop road junction. Turn Right (South) for about 2.5 miles until you get to the Warner Lake Turn off and turn left on to the washboarded gravel road and drive about 5 miles to the Campground. This road is rocky, heavily washboarded, and rough, high clearance, 4WD is recommended.
Construction Closure Route: From Moab, the fastest access (about 1 hour) to Warner Lake Campground is by driving south on Highway 191. Drive 7.8 miles south of Moab and turn east (left) onto Old Airport Road (sign has arrow to La Sal Loop Road, National Forest Access). Turn south (right) at the T-intersection with the Spanish Valley Drive/La Sal Mountain Loop Road (sign has arrows pointing to La Sal Mtn. Loop Rd and Ken's Lake). Continue 13.5 miles to the Warner Lake turnoff. Turn east (right) and drive 5 miles to the campground and cabin on this gravel road. THIS IS ONLY OPEN before 0830, after 1730 hours (5:30 pm) and on weekends.
Please be aware the some GPS or driving apps are giving the wrong information and directing people on 4WD roads or to locked gates. Make sure your directions are accurate before following them--when in doubt look for Forest Service directional signs.
