Best Tent Camping near Kingman, AZ

I enjoyed my stay here. The terrain is steep, with mountain pines and boulders. This was a welcome change from the surrounding country, as was the lower temperature that comes with higher elevation. It was about 10 °F cooler here than in Kingman when I visited in June. Tent camping is first come first served. I had no problem finding a good spot on a Friday night.

There are two areas to the campground. The front section has paved roads and is mostly cabins with some tent sites mixed in. There are real bathrooms here, though they were in need of a cleaning when I visited. The back section has dirt roads and all tent sites, with a few porta potties. The roads are steep in places, but nicely graded. My front wheel drive passenger car traversed them without difficulty.

It is very quiet and dark here at night. Flashlights are a must, as are water vessels: there are no water spigots in the back section. I also saw what I am 80% sure was a mountain lion crossing the road at night when I was walking to one of the porta potties.

The only real downside I noticed here was the flies. They don't bite, but they buzz around you constantly and can get pretty annoying.

Just a few miles off I-40 just east of Kingman. So surprising how much the temperature dropped up the mountain looking over the Arizona desert still. The rangers at the campground was very informational and helpful on finding the perfect place for either tent camping or bringing your RV with hook-ups. The grounds have plenty of trails to hike and the scenery is wonderful and the freshness of the air words can't describe. Definitely coming back in the future.

Arrived here at night. We took a look at the tent sites before paying, which turned out to be a good thing as someone was squatting in a site. You can hear the road from the campground and some people seemed to be using the road to race. But - the site we chose was good. They all have fences, ours had shrubs, which gave the feeling of privacy. The showers were fine and there are toilets right by the tent sites.

This is a great place to get away from the heat in Bullhead City. There are lots of dry tent camping sites scattered throughout the park, or you could rent a cabin or even a teepee. There are rv sites with full hook ups if that's your preference. We went tent camping in the pine basin section there's no water so we brought enough for the trip. In our area I only saw port a potties scattered throughout the area. There are a lot of deer wandering around and they're not shy, a doe walked right up to me the first morning while I was making coffee. I have been told there are Elk wandering around too but I didn't see any. We enjoyed it there and will be going back. The fees are reasonable $17.00 a night for camping, you can buy firewood and ice at the check in station.

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.

Going 3-star only because it's pretty crowded. Tent platform sites, picnic table sites, various sized cabins. Not many tent sites, although it appears they are adding more. Ranger was very friendly and accommodating to let tent campers use picnic table sites without platforms. Sites are very close to each other. Good water spouts. Lots of hiking trails right out od camp.

This campground is very well maintained. There ate concrete pads, picnic table and firerings. There are bathrooms and fresh water hydrants. The bathrooms ate clean. I heard owls hooting, saw some rabbits, and heard coyotes at night. There are drive thru sites for big rigs. There is tent camping. There is a camp host year round. Weather was. Mild views were great.

Went up for a few days to disconnect from the reality of home and to spend some time together as a family. Tent camping - took us a minute to find a spot but we found an amazing space just a short walk to the bathrooms. There’s porta potty’s closer but my little girls wanted to use the nicer bathrooms. There’s tons of hiking, beautiful scenery, VERY friendly wildlife. Elk and deer are everywhere and aren’t afraid of people. The weather was wonderful.

What a fun place for you and your kids! Lots of River activities and ATV trails. If you don't have the toys, they have all types of rentals available for purchase (1/2 day and full day increments).

The cottages were beautiful, the on site restaurant was huge and inviting! There are tent sites, RV sites, and boat docks.

I have T-Mobile, and didn't receive any signal while I was there.

My pictures do not justice for this little Gem....When you first drive in you will see a restaurant and a mini grocery store. This resort caters to all stays whether it's one night, one week, monthly, or all year long. What place offers free room service to your RV?? they do! They have breakfasts,  good looking deli Sandwiches, Burgers, and a lot of other stuff that is homemade, mind you this is new owners and they run it as a family so homemade cooking OMG!  they are on top of a  hill that has amazing views and I also saw a bunch of sites being constructed so I believe they are making this resort much bigger because I saw maybe 100 more sites being set up so don't worry they have places available.  They have lots of events to so check out their calendars...... they offer and free donuts on Saturdays... um, count me in... Year-Round Heated Pool that never closes and a hot tub which is also open, also a clean exercise Room and if you like to play horseshoes they have that too. super neat place for all ages, this place has it all, and don't overpack just buy your food there...or bring stuff to BBQ and use the clean Barbecues they offer. Need to wash your clothes well no worries they have a laundry room and clean showers and bathrooms oh and a mailbox if you are staying awhile. lots of shade and fruit trees to enjoy when in season. They have huge RV pull-thrus spaces and also offer  full Hook-Ups(w/s/e) 30/50 amp Electric Service, and cable, another neat thing is they have actually tent sites, not raggedy spots to where everyone is driving past you but a nice place that anyone would like to enjoy a tent spot. a super neat dog park too I can't get over how cool it was. anyway cheers. This place is a WINNER I would give it 100 stars if I could.

$20 a night, dry camp will get you out of the blast furnace of the Kingman summer. 10 gorgeous miles of hiking trails. Rent a 1930’s stone cabin for $90. RV spots available also.

I had been camping in August by the Colorado River in Arizona, a mistake that time of year. About midnight I was too hot to sleep, and the mosquitos were eating me alive. I decided to move, and an hour later I rolled into Kingman, Ariz. to get gas. I saw a sign for Hualapai Mountain Park, and, knowing nothing about it, I took a chance. Within a couple of miles, the temperature had dropped and the air was fresh. I rolled into the park about midnight, somehow found a camping spot amid the towering Ponderosas and slipped into a deep sleep in the cool air. In the morning a friendly ranger reminded me to pay, nodding in understanding at the story of my escape from the desert. The campground itself was beautiful. The big Ponderosas kept the site cool well into the day--it is almost at 8,000 feet! Better yet was the short hiking trail I took the next day to a promontory on Aspen Peak with a stunning view east across Arizona. A memorable stay.

 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.

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.

We were heading west and wanted to stay in Kingman. This was one of the choices and I'm glad we chose Sunrise. The price was $40 and our dog was no additional charge. The park is tree lined, the host is very nice. Hookups all worked perfectly. The dog walk is a small path around the perimeter of the park. The shower facilities were clean and the water was hot. Wifi was adequate. Very nice place to re-charge your batteries.

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.

in the heart of Kingman, this RV park is close to route 66 and the locomotive park, and some route 66 restaurants and museums. They have 46 Sites open year-round, most sites 24′ wide Max RV Length 45′, on-site they have Picnic Tables, Ic e& Laundry is available for a cost, they DO NOT allow tent campers, but have  Electric Hook-up 20/30/50 Amps, you get WI-FI for free and clean Restrooms & Showers also, this place is handicapped accessible.

Here are my star ratings based on my lifestyle and what I like. I'm also a mother, dog mama, and a wife so it's not just me it's my crew and i. 1 star- AUTOMATIC relocate… the property is no longer there, trashed or/and I could never have my children there and I wouldn't ever think about staying no matter what. 2 star- Not really my jam, and would NEVER go to again… It probably more of desert life and not really my style for sure…Being from Vegas I can't stand being in the desert and I love the Trees and the Green more than anything. 3 star- Would stay there again in a pinch, but not really my style, the reason its not is because not enough family things to do, the scenery, or the location… but I would go again and feel safe having my kiddos here but only if I needed to in a pinch. 4 star- a really good rating for sure, maybe needed some improvements, minor things like being on top of each other, not a lot of privacy, but honestly little cosmetic things that aren't anything to sweat and would be back again for sure. 5 star- MY FAVORITE… love the location, safety, the surroundings, big camp spots available to fit toys for my kids to play, hammocks to hang, our big family tent, cases of firewood, our suburban or RV, etcccccc….. I would not only come back but would live if I could!!! Anyway thanks for reading and enjoy every moment like it's your last! CHEERS!

We spent a week at Blake Ranch RV Park and enjoyed it a lot. We arrived after hours, but our check in papers and map of the park were easily located at the office. We met the staff the next morning and they were all really friendly, and suggested some sites we see while we were in the area. The RV spots were large, flat and easy to get into with enough room to park our truck after we unhooked. The park was within 1/4 mile of a travel center with easy interstate access. During our stay at Blake Ranch we took advantage of the little store, propane fill up and laundry facilities. The park was well kept, clean, and quiet. If you're going to be staying near Kingman I highly recommend this RV Park.
