Ken's Lake Recreation Site

Ken's Lake Recreation Site offers a unique desert escape just 10 miles south of Moab. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the La Sal Mountains and the iconic redrock fins of the region, this BLM-managed campground provides a scenic and accessible base for outdoor enthusiasts. The site is a haven for those looking to enjoy the water, with popular fishing and non-motorized boating opportunities right on the reservoir.

This primitive campground is well-suited for a variety of travelers, from tent campers seeking a natural experience to those in large motorhomes, as the site is designed to accommodate even the largest RVs. Guests have access to essential facilities including vault toilets and picnic tables. Whether you are looking to relax by the water or hit the trails, the area features over three miles of hiking and horseback riding paths that originate directly from the campground.

Because this is a primitive site without hookups, it is best for self-sufficient campers who enjoy a more rugged, back-to-basics experience. Its year-round accessibility and proximity to the stunning Moab landscape make it an excellent choice for families and adventurers looking to explore the natural beauty of Southwest Utah.
