Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Kingman, AZ

Kingman KOA's dedicated dog park features several tunnels for pets to explore while staying at this pet-friendly campground. Hedgerows between campsites provide privacy for campers with animals, and the campground maintains clean, accessible pet areas. Hualapai Mountain Park accepts pets at both tent and RV sites, with cabin options also available for those traveling with dogs. Both campgrounds offer full hookup sites with water and electric connections suitable for RVs and larger camping setups. Site separation at Kingman KOA creates semi-private camping spaces where dogs can rest comfortably beside their owners. Pets must remain on leash throughout common areas, with designated pet relief stations available. The bathrooms are kept clean and well-maintained, important for longer stays with animals.

Mature trees throughout Zuni Village RV Park provide shade protection for pets during hot Arizona days. While the park primarily hosts long-term residents, overnight pet-friendly spots accommodate travelers passing through with their dogs. The dedicated dog walk area offers space for exercise, though some reviewers note it lacks grass surfaces. All campgrounds enforce standard pet policies including waste cleanup requirements and noise control measures to prevent excessive barking. Nearby hiking trails provide additional exercise opportunities for dogs, with Hualapai Mountain Road offering dispersed camping options for more adventurous campers with pets. When temperatures rise in summer months, early morning or evening walks become essential for pet safety, as daytime heat can quickly become dangerous for dogs on hot surfaces.

    Meadview RV Park

    Diamond in the Rough

    Stumbled upon this gem when trying to get campground (CG) reservations near the Grand Canyon National Park South Rim, but none were to be found. Meadview is near the Grand Canyon West Rim and on the Arizona side of Lake Mead. The drive in from Kingman through Dolan Springs was very interesting and off the beaten path with Joshua trees everywhere as we drove into Meadview. Once we arrived, we were greeted by the very nice owner/manager who provided in-depth details on the area then escorted us to site 31 with FHUs. On this day, site 31 was a pull through since no one was in the site directly behind us. This is a no frills CG. It does have a shower house, laundry, and they sell firewood, propane, and ice. We were amazed at the dazzling views of the Grapevine Mountains and Grand Canyon West, which is about 35 minutes away. Grand Canyon West on the Hualapai reservation has the famous (we found out) SkyWalk. The Grand Canyon West is commercialized and a little on the pricey side. This area also has access to the Colorado River and quads/ATVs are also a thing here. The nearest major amenities are in Kingman about an hour away so stock up before you arrive. If you really want to get away from it all this quiet CG is your place.

    Kingman KOA

    Overnighter

    The people at the Kingman Koa were very nice and accommodating. Rv spots are all dirt but surrounded by trees and bushes for some privacy. Bathrooms were older but clean. There is a cute dog park with a few tunnels to climb on, but no grass. A bunch to do for kids. They have a nice playground, mini golf, horse shoes, and a pool. The pool was good side but the water was alittle merky.

    Adorable mini log cabins for rent.

    Overall good place for short trips. Tucked in a neighborhood and close to retail and town. Propane fill up available on site.

    Kingman KOA

    Nice getaway spot

    We headed to the Kingman KOA during the KOA customer appreciation weekend. We've always enjoyed the consistency of the KOA experience and this spot fell right in line. The staff was very friendly and the grounds were clean and well maintained. My full hook up site was close to our neighbors but the hedge rows in between them have us a nice private setting. Bathrooms were clean and the dog park was nicely maintained.

    Tradewinds RV Park

    Golden Valley Nest

    Had a wonderful stay at this RV park. Has a wonderful staff and very friendly. Full hook-ups make the stay very convenient and comfortable, not only the cost is very reasonable. Dogs enjoyed the dog park and the old farm equipment made the place very rustic.

    Tradewinds RV Park

    Delightful RV Park!

    We stayed in site 7C for two nights.  Check in was extremely friendly! Most level RV site we have stayed in over a month!  Gravel with concrete patio and picnic table.  Nice Laundry Facilities with several machines at a reasonable price.  Our site was a corner lot and very spacious! AT&T, T-Mobile Cell Service Excellent.  Dog park but it was closed at the time we were there. Took the Scenic drive into Oatman, AZ one day. Great town with burros roaming the street.  Shops, restaurants and bars. Stop by the Oatman Hotel Bar & Restaurant for a cool display of dollar bills. Would recommend this RV Park!

    Circle S Campground

    a bit run down but decent

     This place is open all year round rates they have nightly, weekly, and seasonal prices available, and depending on the number of people they add on to the price so call ahead of time. In the front in some tent spots nothing special at all about this place. They have ice machine, dump facilities, hookups -Electric 30/20/15 Amp, pet friendly, full phone service for any phone carrier, and a shower house.

    Not much room between RV spaces and a lot of people live there full time, It a little run-down but it's affordable if you trying to just stop in for a short stay off of the main street. But you can do that at other places that are a little nicer for your money. I didn't personally stay here we were driving through Kingman and I wanted to check it out and I wouldn't say I would by any means I would stay here personally due to the cleanliness of facilities.


Guide to Kingman

Kingman sits at the crossroads of major desert routes with elevations ranging from 3,300 feet in town to over 8,000 feet in the nearby Hualapai Mountains. This transition zone creates temperature differences of up to 20 degrees between mountain campgrounds and those in town. Seasonal considerations impact camping options significantly, with summer temperatures regularly exceeding 100°F in lower elevations while mountain sites remain comfortable.

What to do

Night hiking opportunities: The elevation changes around Kingman create ideal conditions for stargazing and night hikes. At Hualapai Mountain Park, one camper noted, "I came night hiking here and the stars will amaze you. I got to see reptiles like tarantulas and scorpions."

Disc golf between campsites: Several campgrounds maintain recreation areas with activities for all ages. "We played a bit of disc golf between rain showers, saw an elk, explored the area, and ate twice in Kingman, just 10 miles away," reported a visitor at Hualapai Mountain Park.

Mountain trails for all skill levels: The mountains surrounding Kingman offer accessible hiking options. "10 gorgeous miles of hiking trails. Rent a 1930's stone cabin for $90," suggests one camper about the pine forest terrain at higher elevations.

What campers like

Wildlife sightings: The diverse ecosystem supports regular wildlife encounters. One camper at Hualapai Mountain Park shared, "I have been there many times over the years and have never been disappointed. I have never been so close to wild life before the elk and deer roam the area, especially in the morning hours."

Temperature relief: Elevation changes provide natural climate control. "Pine forest at 6-8,000 ft. $20 a night, dry camp will get you out of the blast furnace of the Kingman summer," explains a camper about the mountain campgrounds.

Convenient overnight locations: For travelers passing through, there are accessible stopover options. A Blake Ranch RV Park visitor noted, "We called Blake RV Park from the road and booked for same night after explaining our size and campground needs. Park is not far off route 40 and easy drive, just far enough that sound is muted from campground but highway is visible."

What you should know

Elevation creates variable terrain: Many dispersed camping areas have challenging access roads. "The sites were way too close together for privacy. It is a good thing we liked our neighbors, because we essentially camped with them for 3 nights. All that said, it was worth it to have immediate access to the Potato Patch Loop trailhead," described one camper.

Late arrival procedures: Many campgrounds accommodate after-hours check-in. At Blake Ranch RV Park, "From the moment we called the lady was the sweetest and most helpful! She explained where they were located and where to go and what to do when we arrived for late check in. There is a map that shows what spots are still available."

Noise considerations: Highway proximity affects sound levels at many sites. "This RV park is more long term residents, but they have overnight spots. All the streets are nicely paved throughout, leveled RV sites over 100 total RV sites(8 overnight sites), a lot of trees which gives you a lot of privacy," shared a visitor to Zuni Village RV Park.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly amenities: Several campgrounds offer specialized recreation for children. At Kingman KOA, "This is a wonderful experience since we were originally not planning on camping on our way back to California. The campground also had a pool, hot tub, playground, mini golf and a little train that kids to ride in around the park starting at 9:30am."

Budget-friendly cabins: Families can access affordable shelter options. "Rent a 1930's stone cabin for $90," mentions one camper about alternatives to tent camping at Hualapai Mountain Park.

Evening wildlife viewing: Schedule family activities around wildlife patterns. "The elk and deer roam the area, especially in the morning hours. A great commune with nature," notes one regular visitor.

Tips from RVers

Level site considerations: Many campsites require leveling equipment. "Site was VERY small, had electric and water. Park had dump station, showers, flush toilets, wifi, cable and laundry," shared one RV camper at Kingman KOA.

Site selection for larger rigs: Big rigs need special attention to site dimensions. "We have a Cyclone 4270 (44' 5th wheel) and in truck we're around 60'. This means we hunt for alternative camp sites with larger layouts and entry points," explained one RVer at Blake Ranch RV Park.

Free dispersed camping options: RVers seeking budget alternatives can find BLM land near town. A camper at DW Ranch Road advised, "We couldn't find any empty spots as easy access spots were scarce as we are towing a 26 foot trailer. However if you have a small 4x4 - you shouldn't have a hard time finding a spot."
