Lower Onion Creek Camping Area offers 21 individual sites and 4 reservable group sites directly along the Colorado River with two boat ramps for river access, making it an ideal launch point for rafting and paddling trips.

Basic amenities include vault toilets and picnic tables, but no drinking water or hookups are available.

Located 22 miles east of Moab via Highway 128, the gravel access road is manageable for most vehicles, though sites fill quickly during peak seasons and the area experiences wind, especially after sunset.
