River enthusiasts will find BLM Empire Landing positioned directly along the Colorado River in Parker, Arizona. This Bureau of Land Management facility operates year-round and provides drinking water, showers, and a dump station for RV campers. The campground sits within walking distance of Pirates Den RV Resort & Marina and other riverfront accommodations.
Campers use this as a base for Colorado River activities including boating, fishing, and swimming. The location provides direct water access without the higher fees of private resorts. Plan to arrive early during peak river season as sites fill quickly on weekends.
