"My husband and I have stayed at Ballard park at least 5 times now. It is a great location (much more affordable than actually staying in Moab) for getting around Arches, Canyonlands (Island in the Sky) are less than an hour away, Goblin Valley and Hanksville area are about an hour away. The check in/ check out process is very easy and the people are very friendly and helpful. They have two sets of washers and dryers in the office area for use and I've never had to wait in line to use them. Please be aware though that there is only a convenience gas station close by. The closest markets would be Green River or Moab. Just make sure to bring some foods with you so you don't have to drive every day. There is plenty of pots/pans/plates and utensils for use in the units. There is also a full size fridge which is very nice. We will definitely stay here again when in the area. "
