Kings Bottom Campground
Last Updated: February 2026
Overview
About This Campground
Kings Bottom Campground sits along the Colorado River just southwest of Moab, Utah. It offers 13 walk-in tent sites and 9-10 spur sites for tents and small RVs. Vault toilets are available, but there are no potable water, electrical hookups, or dump facilities on-site, so bring ample water and plan accordingly. The setting between towering canyon walls provides river views, but expect road noise and nearby activity.
