Lake Havasu State Park Campground

Lake Havasu is a beautiful lake with lots of wildlife and it's very scenic too. We visit every year, either in January or April because we have family in the area. The Best Park of Camping at Lake Havasu State Park is using it as a base for kayaking and fishing on the lake. The park itself has decent amenities, but it definitely caters to motor boats, and people with lots of toys. We only bring a small tent so we kind of stick out among the huge RVs. The place is packed in the evenings, but it thins out during the day when everyone is on the water. Because there are so many boats on the lake and at the boat launch, the fumes can be a bit overbearing. Also, there is no shade at all, which I guess I kind of expected. Luckily we were there in January, so that part was okay.

There is a nice playground and swimming area for kids, but there were also very loud campers on either side of us. Next time, we are going to stay at one of the BLM sites on the lake. We've heard they are very quiet and peaceful.

No Shade and No Privacy

I used to visit this state park for Spring Break back in the 90's.  Lots of people and lots of fun.  Plenty of places to put up a tent and relax or party!

Spring Break

The staff were amazing! Incredibly friendly & filled with information. Although there are few trees around they were hammock friendly for those of us that prefer hammocks over tents. It was extremely hot but that is Arizona in summer so it's a huge beni that the campsites are right on the lake yet still close enough to go get food or coffee or anything else we may have wanted from town. Would definitely recommend Lake Havasu State Park for camping! 

Hammock friendly & right on the water

This park is right on the shores of Lake Havasu. You could walk to town but we bike down to shopping and the bridge. Large sites. Very busy so book early!

Close to town

Very nice 

sandy beaches and plenty of places to RV, camp, or even rent a cabin. So many neat things for children too so make sure you ask when you pull in for coloring books and a junior ranger packet... keep them kiddos busy. summertime this place is popping, not too busy in the off-seasons but a really nice sandy beach, fun in the sun type of place. very well maintained and affordable.

  

Here are my star ratings based on my lifestyle and what I like. I'm also a mother, dog mama, and a wife so it's not just me it's my crew and i. 1 star- AUTOMATIC relocate… the property is no longer there, trashed or/and I could never have my children there and I wouldn't ever think about staying no matter what. 2 star- Not really my jam, and would NEVER go to again… It probably more of desert life and not really my style for sure…Being from Vegas I can't stand being in the desert and I love the Trees and the Green more than anything. 3 star- Would stay there again in a pinch, but not really my style, the reason its not is because not enough family things to do, the scenery, or the location… but I would go again and feel safe having my kiddos here but only if I needed to in a pinch. 4 star- a really good rating for sure, maybe needed some improvements, minor things like being on top of each other, not a lot of privacy, but honestly little cosmetic things that aren't anything to sweat and would be back again for sure. 5 star- MY FAVORITE… love the location, safety, the surroundings, big camp spots available to fit toys for my kids to play, hammocks to hang, our big family tent, cases of firewood, our suburban or RV, etcccccc….. I would not only come back but would live if I could!!! Anyway thanks for reading and enjoy every moment like it's your last! CHEERS!

beach life on the lake

Loved this place.... the spots on the beach are 5.00 more but worth it for the view &amp; privacy! My second night was #16 and it was one of the best sites! Pictures speak louder than words. Water &amp; Electric, excellent cell coverage with AT&amp;T. Dump site at top of the hill. Lots of action on the water to watch. I was here in Feb 2021, 65 to 70 degrees. It can get a bit windy, but the sites are well protected for the most part.

This is a state park.

Made reservations for one of the sites facing the Lake (#40).  Checked in (by giving last name) with a wonderfully nice and helpful staff member.  50 and 30 Amp service along with water hook up.  Even cement pad with a picnic table to the side.  Since it was 112 degrees the 50 foot walk to the waters edge and a quick dip was the refreshing needed.  Wet Monkey boat rentals is located right at the park.  The London Bridge is about 2 miles South.

This is a great location when visiting Havasu City

Great State Park

I didn't have reservations and the campground was full when I got here. But they have an camping overflow lot. For $25 a day you can park right at the beach. No hook ups but there is a bath and shower house, dump station and potable water available. 

Right in town but the view helps you forget that.

We've stayed here several times for the balloon festival. The restrooms have showers in this part of the park.  It is dry camping, but they have a dump.  Not all of the spots are level. 

Balloon festival

Stayed in the cabin loop, cabin 12 “Gila Monster”. Enjoyed the cabin so much we stayed an additional night. Cabins everything you’d want with amazing few of lake. Warm showers and clean bathrooms. Lake havasu is a great place to visit in winter! 

Cabin 12, Gila monster

The bathrooms were clean, the campsite was beautiful, there was a beach that was pet friendly. The employees were super friendly. 

Great campground! 

This is our 2nd stay at Lake Havasu State Park. We had site C-2 in the cabin loop with W/E. Recommend weekdays if you like quiet camping. We were there Monday thru Thursday with only a couple days advanced resi and had the cabin loop all to ourselves until the last night. Most weekends are booked. 
As always the park is immaculate with nice personal combo bathrooms &amp; showers. Clean &amp; level tent sites as well. 
The park staff had huge smiles and waves at the gate every time we returned from our days adventure. Great welcome! 

2nd great visit to this park

Nice location to be near town. Lots of gravel but good size spots. Boat launch, garden, cabins and beaches.
