Moon River RV Resort and several other campgrounds in Mohave Valley accommodate pets with varying amenities. Davis Camp Park features waterfront campsites where pets can enjoy the Colorado River's edge, though owners should supervise pets near water. Most RV parks in the area maintain designated pet areas, with Moon River and Desert View offering privacy between sites with oleander plantings (which are poisonous to pets). Crossroads RV Park and Laughlin Avi KOA allow pets with standard leash requirements, while several parks feature dedicated dog exercise areas.
Fenced dog parks appear at several facilities near Mohave Valley, with some offering tunnels for dogs to climb on. The dog park at Riverside Casino and RV Park provides convenient access for exercising pets while staying close to entertainment options. Many campgrounds provide pet waste stations with disposal buckets throughout the grounds, cleaned multiple times daily. When camping with pets in this desert region, early morning walks are recommended due to extreme heat during summer months. Paved roads at Silver View RV Resort and other parks offer comfortable walking surfaces for pets, while nearby trails provide additional exercise opportunities. Campers should watch for wildlife, as coyotes have been spotted in early mornings at some locations.
"This park is located adjacent to a KOA on a road that used to be a section of the old Route 66. Our GPS vectored us in circles until it got it right. So be warned. "
"This site is a walk away from Needles KOA, so if you need anything small, it's a very short walk to their store (where they carry some foods and drinks)."
"Last minute reservation traveling from Yosemite-Tule Lake. Easy access off 40. Carla was very accommodating offering one of the 2 shaded lots available for our dogs sake as it was 92."

"You have full access to the entire resort as well. Nice cleans bathrooms Grass areas Sandy beaches for fun in the sun!!!"
"We camped with a group out on one of the points for some good off roading. LOTS of nice trails to go, lots of desert to cover. Some sand, some rocky areas, a nice assortment."

"On the river, great beach to walk on. We avoided all the bad winter weather. Would definitely go back."
"The cool thing here is that the AVI casino is directly across the street and is the only thing around for miles, so you’ll most likely be spending your time there like we did."
"Casino is across the street next to the river. Fireworks are nightly and available to buy at the corner gas station /fireworks store. Grocery stores are very close for any of your needs."
"Loved being able to set up our Napier Sportz tent with our Subaru at the river's edge on the Colorado River just outside of Bullhead City, Az. (across from Laughlin, NV). So clear!"
"If you want to rent camp spend the day hike explore boat it’s awesome here and they are extremely dog friendly with a bunch of dog stations."

GuideNot a bad little park. The pool is a little small and not much of a dog park. (There is a dry wash behind the dog park that people use but they don’t pick up after their pets). Handful of long term RV’rs here. The prices are not to bad considering it’s lake Havasu. I’d stay here again!
TravelerVery tight spots. We like a little more space between rigs. Clean amenities, close to town. Dog walk area but no dog park. Great staff
TravelerThe 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.
LegendVery disappointed. Super small dog park without water. Lots of empty sites but still stuck campers together. No room for tables if you have a neighbor. No dog beach.

Some of the best campground restrooms. Full hookups & affordable long term rates.
GuideHad 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.
TravelerAwesome RV park. Paved road, clean gravel sites, beautiful pool, dog park fenced in. Small but big enough for pups to get exercise safely. Staff super friendly and helpful. CLEAN, CLEAN PLACE!
GuideWe 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.
GuideWe 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!
Mohave Valley camping destinations sit along the Colorado River with temperatures reaching over 110°F in summer months. Most sites offer river access with varying levels of privacy and amenities. Campers often access Laughlin casinos and entertainment options nearby, with gas prices significantly lower on the Arizona side than in California.
River activities: Desert View RV Resort offers proximity to the Colorado River for boaters and water enthusiasts. "We had a great experience here. Our trailer has a view of the landscape of palms and undeveloped land behind the park," shares a camper. Fishing, swimming and jet skiing are popular during warmer months.
Gaming and entertainment: Laughlin Avi KOA provides easy access to casino entertainment across the street. "The KOA campground is nothing special, very basic, barren wasteland with full hookup sites. The cool thing here is that the AVI casino is directly across the street and is the only thing around for miles," notes one visitor. The kids center stays open until 2 AM for parents who want to enjoy evening activities.
ATV trails: Numerous off-road vehicle trails surround the area for desert exploration. "Perfect place to ride your side by sides or ATV's. Lots of outdoor activities," writes a Crossroads RV Park visitor. Many campers bring personal ATVs to explore the surrounding desert landscape.
River beaches: Davis Camp Park provides direct river access with designated swimming areas. "Loved being able to set up our Napier Sportz tent with our Subaru at the river's edge on the Colorado River just outside of Bullhead City. So clear!" reports one camper. The Colorado River offers cooling relief during hot summer days.
Privacy between sites: Desert View RV Resort features natural barriers between sites. "Nice tall Oleander shrubs provide shade and privacy between sites. Generous sized pull through sites," writes one reviewer. These plantings create individual camping spaces despite the desert setting.
Swimming pools: Several campgrounds maintain pools for cooling off. "Deluxe campground, sweltering heat. This is my first time staying at a KOA campground. I'm impressed with how many amenities are provided: pool, laundry room, clubhouse, well-appointed bathroom, and a camp store with reasonable prices," notes a Needles KOA visitor.
Extreme heat conditions: Summer temperatures regularly exceed 100°F, even late into the evening. "As I write this at 10:11 at night, it is 100° F. When I arrived in Needles this afternoon, it was 114° F. The water that comes out of the spigots here is like bathwater," reports a KOA camper. Water activities provide the main relief from heat.
Wildlife encounters: Local wildlife includes burros and nocturnal animals. "Stay there and it was real quiet. The burrows came right through the campsite. They were friendly and did not destroy anything," notes a Crossroads RV Park visitor. Secure food containers at night to prevent animal attraction.
Gas price differences: Substantial gas price differences exist between states. "Fuel prices are about $1.50 to $2 a gallon less in AZ, about 2 miles away on the road," advises a Desert View RV Resort camper. Fill up on the Arizona side rather than in California for significant savings.
Riverfront camping: Big Bend of the Colorado offers family-friendly beach areas. "The beach is nice and well maintained. There are two sides to jump into the water," notes a camper. Early morning or evening swimming works best for families with small children during hot months.
Kid-friendly activities: Several resorts provide recreational facilities beyond water activities. "This place has a variety of games around that can be fun for groups," reports a Needles KOA visitor. Playground areas vary significantly between campgrounds, with some offering minimal facilities.
Educational opportunities: The region's desert environment provides learning opportunities about desert ecology. "We group camp here with fellow youth sports families. The kids love the open areas to run and play in though there are not great playgrounds," shares a Davis Camp Park visitor.
Site privacy considerations: Moon River RV Resort offers sites with natural shade. "Nice level site under eucalyptus trees. The pool was refreshing, the showers and bathrooms clean, friendly staff," shares an RVer. Concrete pads at many campgrounds provide stability for larger rigs.
Navigation challenges: GPS systems sometimes struggle with directions to campgrounds. "Our GPS vectored us in circles until it got it right. So be warned," notes a Desert View visitor. Physical maps or printed directions serve as useful backups when digital navigation fails.
Early arrival recommendations: Many dog friendly campgrounds near Mohave Valley have limited check-in hours or charge for early arrival. "The couple that helps manage the park were very welcoming, and thanked us for staying there. However, she did charge me an extra $15 for arriving at 1130 in the morning. The check-in time is 1400," reports a Desert View RV Resort camper.
