Castle Gate RV Park & Campground

I was rolling thru town a little late and called to see if a spot was available. The office stayed open for an extra 20 minutes so they could receive me. The hosts, were very nice and helpful. The sites are flat and well maintained with fire rings at every site. Each bathroom is individual has a shower in it. The shower/bathroom is hotel quality in construction and maintenance. I am very pleased with this business and will go out of my way to stay here again. TOP NOTCH!

Got the river view site. The train view sites a very close to the road and trains. I was not interested in hearing either. Overall my site was quiet and would choose the river side again.

This park opened in April 2019. It has top quality WiFi, cable TV, laundry, clean rest rooms & showers, a playground, splash pad, fire rings at each site, trees at each site [yes, they are small now, but should be good in 2-5 years], stunning vistas and best of all — really friendly staff.

The price we paid is a little high [$56] but it really seems to be worth it. There are picnic tables at each site and the gravel pads are pretty level. The distance between the utilities is a little long, so be alert to positioning. That is the ONLY downside I could find.

We drove through the town and it is a quaint western town that is trying to remake themselves. And, they are doing a pretty good job.

Castle Gate gave us a place to stay safe for a month during the COVID 19. They cut their rates to accommodate us or anyone that was tired/stranded from all the surrounding State/National Parks that were quickly closing. To our delight we found that this was such a hidden gem. Everyday, It was hard to decide if we should go mountain biking, jeeping, a motorcycle ride or just walk thru the beautiful historic town of Helper. Our month stay went way too fast and we look forward to returning. Thank you to all the staff, especially Ray & Evelyn who gave us some great advise & have became our fast friends.

Wanted to go on a last minute 4th of July camping trip. We came across Castle Gate RV park and we are so glad we did! Full
hookups(power,sewer,water). Clean, nice bathrooms-each with its own shower. It looked like all spots would be easy access. This opened April 2019 so it’s basically new. Friendly staff. We were guided to our spot by a kind staff member. There is a little splash pad, park and small dog park for your pups to be off leash. There is a river on one side of the RV park that’s pretty cool, we were told it’s decent fishing as well. Overall really impressed with our stay, glad we found this place.

This is one of the nicest campgrounds I've stayed at! You can tell that this is a labor of love by the folks who own and operate it, and everyone who visits will know what I mean after one stay.

The campground is new and still not a lot of people know about it yet. It's laid out in such a way that there is space for every type of camper. There are over a hundred RV sites-many of them pull throughs and with full hook ups. When you arrive, a staff member escorts you to your site, so there's no getting lost. He stayed to make sure we had all we needed, and then left us alone to get set up. The ground was level, well manicured and the picnic table was in excellent condition. As the trees grow larger, the shade will be very nice.

If you're not pulling a trailer or driving an RV, there are also a few tent sites throughout the park. You'll also notice some little cabins that you can rent too. Each space has ample parking and plenty of room between you an your neighbor. I didn't feel crowded at all.

Campground bathrooms can either make or break a place-these ones MAKE it! There are several gender neutral bathrooms-each with their own private shower. They were cleaner than my shower at home! Above each door just outside the room is a light that shines red or green, so no wondering if it's vacant or not.

There is a large group pavilion that guests can use, first come, first served. It's got plenty of tables and a large outdoor sink for cleaning your dishes. Onsite, there is also a nice playground and a fun splash pad for the kids. Not far from that is a small dog run for your dogs to run free. The main store has a few convenience items as well as a nice laundry area.

My interactions with the staff were all very positive. People were friendly and seemed to enjoy their work. The entire vibe of the campground was inviting; so much so that our large group booked reservations for several sites at the end of the month. Who knew that little Helper, Utah would become our vacation destination?! But we can't wait to come back.

Stayed here for a couple of nights on the way from SLC to Moab as it's almost perfectly halfway between the two. Sites are very large and well spaced, FHU with a ton of cable channels, and the amenities are clean and well maintained. We walked down the road to the small town of Helper which had a couple of small restaurants and coffee shops, and a large number of art galleries. Very quaint.

Awesome stop, highly recommend. Also, it's an accredited dark sky location, and on a clear night the skies are amazing.

Hands down the best cared for campground we have ever been to. Perfectly manicured and the facilities are super, super clean. The employees are very helpful. Bathrooms are the nicest I’ve seen at any campground and the laundry facilities are phenomenal. We stayed overnight here and would have happily stayed for many more days. Kudos to the people who keep this place up, they truly care about this resort. Will definitely stay again and would recommend 10/10.

We enjoyed this campground. Extremely clean and spacious. Surrounded by beautiful views. Staff very friendly. It has all the amenities, including cable tv, full hookups, general store, propane, camp supplies and free air for tire inflation. Close to Price, with its many restaurants and grocery stores. And adorable downtown Helper is just up the street with cute shops, galleries and restaurants. Easy highway access, too. Really good stopover option between SLC and Moab!

What a great RV Park! We stayed here for (4) nights in late August. Plenty of room for bigger rigs, power, water and sewer easy to access. The sites are clean and wide enough you have privacy between sites. The office, laundry and bathrooms were spotless. Hosts are friendly and very helpful. (Thanks Ray!) Each site has a nice table and fire ring. There was a small splash pad next to the office. A small but nice pet run. We are already planning a trip back to Helper!
