Disburse Camping
You can either hike in or boat in to get to this location. We kayak in to set up camp for the night. There is a rustic toilet you can use, no water available other than the river. Our camp site was away from the masses, we took our camping gear further away from the crowded main camping area. It was worth the little hike away to be camping alone.
Cool spot next to the highway
Little bit of road noise, but free and at the AZ hot springs trailhead. No toilet or service but AZ hot springs are boss.
Dispersed camping
We came in through the main gate of willow beach and you can leave your vehicle and use the ramp to get where you need to, so make sure your aware there is a park fee, unless you have America the beautiful pass. Plenty of little sandy/ rocky pull offs you can get to from any boat or water vessel. Bring everything you need because it’s dispersed and there is NOTHING and make sure you have lights because it does get dark. But nothing better than waking up to the river and the majestic water sounds. We didn’t see the hot springs but next time we will hike in so we can get to them from the main road. My images are of little places we passed where you can pull over and camp at. Also the water is extremely low at this time if you have a bigger water craft.
