Campers are Saying
Kingman Wash, near Temple Bar Marina, Arizona, is a rugged spot that offers a unique camping experience right by the water. This location is perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle, with plenty of space to park and enjoy the scenic views of Lake Mead.
Visitors rave about the clear water and the opportunity to swim or boat, making it a great place to cool off during the hot days. The access road can be a bit rough, so it's best to come prepared with a sturdy vehicle, especially if you're towing a trailer. As one camper noted, “The drive there was a bit choppy... but the view of the lake was worth it.”
Wildlife is abundant here, with friendly wild donkeys and coyotes roaming around, adding to the charm of the area. Campers appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, with many mentioning that other visitors are respectful and keep the area clean. One reviewer highlighted the great hiking opportunities nearby, particularly the trail to Arizona Hot Springs, which is a must-see.
While there are no amenities like drinking water or toilets, the freedom to have fires and the ability to bring pets make this a popular choice for those looking to enjoy a more primitive camping experience. Whether you're here for a quick getaway or a longer stay, Kingman Wash offers a beautiful backdrop for your outdoor adventures.
