Completely secluded spot. Got there on a Saturday evening and no one was there. Was able to bring my 24 foot box camper up and around to am amazing view. Stars are incredible here. Absolute dark sky.

Maybe 10 Minutes To canyonlands from my campsite. A Little Past Hamburger Rock On The Left. Easy To Get To In My Prius. Privacy And Beauty!

There are some sandy spots, so be thoughtful if you’re 2WD.
No Verizon cell service, but Starlink worked great 😉

There are plenty of spots for small camper trailers and small RVs, and obviously tent camping. I wouldn’t bring a class A down here. Road in, at least as far as I drove, was very good. 4x4 not needed.

We arrived on a rainy afternoon. Roads were easy to navigate, and we pulled off into one of the first dispursed sites past hamburger rock. All the sites we saw had firepits. The view was amazing, and we were 5 minutes to the entrance of Canyonlands NP. We didn't see many people, but it was a rainy December day.

It was busy but we found a beautiful camp that was private. A couple miles in the road drops down into a slick rock area that has lots of campsites a little more out of the springtime wind. Our 23 foot trailer pulled great on these roads. We will go back again.

Yes, lots of opportunity to get creative, but even more opportunity to get yourself so stuck in deep sand that it will cost at least a grand to get a truck to come pull you out. Also extremely crowded during the late spring and early fall. Keep in mind you are probably at least 50 miles from the nearest service. Lots of ATV and motorcycle traffic. That said if you get a spot it’ll likely be wonderful!

As amazing as Needles district is, this campground really blew our socks off.

As amazing as Needles district is, this campground really blew our socks off. Drive right past Hamburger Rock and the first few pulloff sites, then you'll find yourself in the midst of a sea of red rock hoodoos, as much fun to climb as they are to admire from afar.
The dark skies at this park are just about the best I've ever seen, and we've camped all around Moab. Shooting stars abound, and looking up at the twinkling sky framed by such cool and unusual rock formations only amplifies the effect.
Now for the guts: you won't get much for cell service out here, we got a bar or two of Verizon but it was spotty. Our AT&T wifi router was even spottier. The Access is good, but not great. Our spot was just a few miles in and there was one wash to cross, but we cleared it fine with our dually and 43' rig. I think if you went much further this would get tough for big rigs, but I can't be sure - this road goes a very long ways.
If you have a big rig I would recommend scouting ahead and making sure a spot is available before going too far down this road. Like most BLM sites, the spots for big rigs are limited, but great if you can get one. The bonus here is that there are so many dispersed sites, there are plenty of opportunities to get creative, which if you're into boondocking a lot, you're probably used to :)
We didn't have any problems with noise, neighbors, generators, etc. This area is less popular with offroaders than the zoo of Moab, so it's much quieter overall. Cleaner than most BLM sites around Moab too.
Location is stellar in the fact that you're 15-ish minutes from the Needles entrance. There aren't a lot of amenities around, only the camp store in Needles which is....expensive, and limited. So make sure you pack in pack out.

-Free!
-Close to the road, or you could drive for miles it looks like to more spots
-Right next to some cool climbable rocks
-Did it in my low-clearance, 2WD Hyundai Veloster
-Enclosed pit toilets 1/4 mile up the road at the Hamburger Rock campground, or a 10 min drive to the visitor center with 24/7 clean indoor bathrooms
-No service at the site, but drive up to Hamburger and I had 1-2 bars LTE with AT&T
Went in mid-January and I had the whole area to myself. There wasn’t even a single camper at the Hamburger Rock paid campground 1/4 mile up the road. I would absolutely stay here again.

This is a beautiful area with nicely spread out dispersed sites. There's an outhouse on the road at the Hamburger Rock campground (BLM) as well as another one further down the road. We were here in mid-October which is a busy time as the weather is just about perfect. We had a couple of nights with an ATV down and back between 2am and 3am (to the outhouse maybe?), but then Friday night came and it got very busy with ATVs and LOTS of people.
This is just outside the Needles District of Canyonlands NP, so a very good option if you will be there (and Newspaper Rock is an interesting stop on your way in or out). There's a private campground just outside the park entrance (Needles Outpost) with a small store that sells ice and a few groceries, and there is water available in the park at both the visitor center and the campground.
The road in is dirt - a little bumpy but accessible by any car and the size of the sites varies quite a bit. We were impressed by how clean the area was - far better than many dispersed sites we frequent in Northern Colorado.
