** GETTING TO GATEWAY GLAMPING ** If you're coming from Moab, Utah - GPS will suggest taking a 57 mile road via UT-128 and Dolores Triangle Safari Route. Please be aware that this route is primarily a dirt road that takes you from Moab through the La Sal Mountains then down into Gateway. It is an incredibly scenic route however, there is no winter maintenance and any amount of moisture could make the road impassable.
Cell service might be spotty for some, we have no issues with AT&T. WiFi provided by the Gateway Library (across the highway from us) can be accessed from our property, it's not the strongest and we would not recommend trying to work off of it, but it's a back up if you do not have any cell service in Gateway. The WiFi is typically available all day, until 10 pm, then it shuts off automatically.
