The Heights

I absolutely love camping here. There's not a lot of light pollution so you can get great stars and moon pictures. Right near the I 40 if you want a quick stay passing through and want a quick stop in Lake Havasu City.

Decent spot just outside town!

I stayed two nights and found the area to be perfect. It was not overly crowded, except for the area right off of the main road. If you go a little farther in on the trail you get a little more space. I full time in a class c and flat tow my Jeep and was able to get about half a mile off the main road for my own slice of heaven.

There are lots of flat areas for easy setup, but there are also quite a few areas that would be challenging to level. Depending on your rig you may want to walk the area first.

There was a little bit of highway noise, but nothing major. Town is about 10 minutes south, and interstate 40 is about 10 minutes north.
