The Best Camping Near Quartzsite, Arizona

Crystal Hill-Kofa National Wildlife Refuge. 

Free remote dispersed camping. South of Quartzite along hwy 95. 

 NEVERMIND the BLM no camping sign at the hwy turnoff, go 3.1 mi to Kofa Refuge boundary and then to the 5.7 mi point and you reach Crystal Hill.  There is a loop with about several back in remote style campsites. No signs, no toilets, no water, no trash, no tables, no fire rings.  However cell seems good.  14d camping limit.  The road in is washboard rocky gravel. Also more camping spots between the Kofa boundary and Crystal Hill.

Important note! The turnoff from hwy 95 is between mp 96 and mp 95. As of Nov 2024 there is a significant dip leaving the hwy that may be problematic for trailers or long RVs, causing you to drag the rear end or hitch... Recon first..

Crystal hill rock hounding

 Loved the flat open spot we stayed at. We stopped about a mile outside the pin on this location. It was a quick drive in to the mountain. It was beautiful. Will stay here again

Stayed just outside of the area 

Nice spot. Much more space than up towards Quartzite. CRAZY up there. Sites are well marked and the road going in ( a few miles) is soild but is wash boarded in spots. Nothing that a little patient's cant save vibrating your rig apart. Beautiful hike up into the canyon and good night sky. A little windy, in fact picked up in the middle of the night and I wasn't prepared so destroyed my 10×10 canopy. Oh well. Lesson learned. Lol.
