This secluded California oasis is located in the Moabi Regional Park, on the banks of the Colorado River, just 11 miles southeast of Needles, California. Pirate Cove offers an oasis that brings you back to a simpler life where you can eat, drink, play, and unwind the pirates way.
My first time camping in a BLM area. Came at the right time before Sunset. Tip: some camp areas have a stone fire pit. I didn’t use it because I wasn’t sure if it was legal.
This spot is best for a quick layover and then move on. Just an old gravel pit,th no water, no toilets, no trash. Only a few miles north of the town and Walmart. There were a couple of broke down burned out vehicles that added to the ambiance. No cell in the lower pit but ok cell on upper level.
Easy place to find a open spot in the back and quiet until some dumbass pulled in and starts their generator and blares Pink Floyd .
We stayed Oct 28-31. We stayed in a back-in dispersed camping spot ...exit 66 from I-40, and a couple miles on S Blake Ranch Road. Our rig is 43', towing a pickup with UTV loaded in the back. After unhooking (wide road) by the old Hwy 93 turnoff, we drove 93 a ways in the truck and determined it was too rough and washed out in places for our RV.
We explored down S Blake Ranch road and found our spot --several spots are available down that road, and easy access to trails if you go out trail-riding.
Blake Ranch road is wide, and pretty wash boarded in places, but easily doable, taking it slow. We backed into our chosen site, with room for the truck and UTV. A bonus = it's a level site!!
Beautiful scenery, extremely peaceful, wooded site with plenty of scrap wood around for a careful campfire.
Also making it a mission in retirement travel to practice Leave No Trace, so also cleaned up some prior trash left behind as well as our own.
A little traffic does go down the road, but not often.
Had 2 bars of Verizon cell service; husband had about the same on US Cellular.
We spent 4 days here and it was very nice! People seem respectful on the UTVs. Local amenities are super super convenient!
We went a lot farther down the road than anyone else that we could see. There are several places to camp pretty close to Blake’s Ranch Rd. But they were full. The farther down the road, the rougher and more rutted it gets. Don’t recommend for larger campers or trailers unless it’s a 4x4 type. We found a huge spot. Obviously someone or multiple people stayed here for quite a while and generated a lot of trash which they left all over. Not cool! There is the faintest hint of traffic noise from I-40. You will probably have to do some leveling on your vehicle.
We only stay 3-4 nights per visit but everyone has always been great. They are working on upgrading the wifi, as it is very slow now. Just what we need when visiting the area.
Solid gravel roads, lots of space, small scrubery, nestled against rock formations.
It was a stop over for one night while returning home. The ladies at check in were very nice and welcoming. Long pull trough site allowed us to stay hooked up. The utilities were well placed. Sites offer fairly good privacy with hedges. This park is desert view as is in it's name, so don't expect to walk to the river. My navigation, didn't do a good job of finding it, so look for the signs they have placed on the roads. It is next to the KOA if that helps. I'd come here again.
My boyfriend and I stayed 1 night here with our dog and we loved it. The sites are well spread out so each camp has privacy. We will definitely be back!
Good Verizon signal clean sites. Easy to get to beautiful area. You do need an Arizona trust camping permit. It cost $20 for the whole year. You can get it online.
We loved it here, stayed the one night to break up the journey. The directions are great, and there are two sites here, we stayed in the second. It was nice and level. The views were beautiful, and having all the space and quiet to ourselves was magical. Didn't see any snakes or other critters.
We stopped here as a one night stop on our way to New Mexico. It was a decently maintained dirt road, you should know how to crawl around potholes and/or have a higher clearance vehicle. I could see a 2WD getting stuck in the sand/fine rock areas. If you want to sleep in at all, definitely pick the west side of a large rock structure to help block the morning sun. It very quickly got hot, but with no canopy on the tent at night, we slept comfortably.
Free, no power, no water.
We stayed here for a night and the site was beautiful. We stayed in one of the spaces not too far down the road as it was our first time dispersed camping. I would definitely recommend staying further down the road as there were a few things we quickly realized:
Great spot right out side of town
Great spot to get away quiet every park with plenty of amenities
We pulled in to a spot here late at night and left the next morning to continue our long drive, so we didn’t spend a lot of time here, but it served our needs! I am happy any time I wake up surrounded by nature, and I was very happy to wake up and see quail running in the morning. There were some people in tents as well as other RV/car campers around, but it was all spaced out nicely so you still have privacy.
We arrived around 4pm and to our surprise there was no one here. Had our choice of spots. Unfortunately past visitors left a fair amount of trash in several sites. Bummer I think. Don't ruin a good thing. Approximately 10 or so sites. No fire pits unless you make one, no tables, no bathrooms. Free BLM camping. Great access from hiway. About 3 mile off hwy 40 easy. Gas and food possibilities at exit when you leave. Nice and alot of Juniper trees but not enough for any shade. Would stay here again. Hopefully no one screws it up. PICK UP YOUR SHIT!!
Seems like a beautiful setting but we ran into a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake within feet of the campsite. They are aggressive and fatal. We left to go find somewhere else. Be careful.
Full hookups but did not get cold water this time of year. Close to action. Casinos, food and shopping.
We needed a nice, lovely spot to rest for the night and organize our campervan on our way from LAS to GCNP. This was perfect. No one around, lovely sunset and sunrise, campervan did just fine.
This dispersed camping area which requires a ridiculously inexpensive online permit ($20 per year), was perfect for what we needed. Our closest neighbor was about ¼ mile away, and we had views and sunsets aplenty. There is access to the Lake Havasu, but only by OHV or on foot, we chose the latter.
The roads in from the highway are rough and rocky, but doable if you take it slow. Once again our 67 year old vintage camper did great getting to our spot, though we recommend parking and walking the roads before committing to the drive in.
There’s hiking opportunities right out your front door, and nothing but the highway or the lake to stop your progress. The nearby Cattail Cove State Park offers designated hiking trails through the rugged desert terrain.
Nothing in the way of services, so bring your own...but lots of space to be alone and private. And, with sun, sun, sun, the California/ Arizona skies are great for solar gathering, so bring out all your panels. Starlink internet worked well too.
Lake Havasu city is about 15 minutes up the road, and there you can find everything you might need in terms of services and supplies. Check out the world famous London Bridge while you’re there, too!
Sams Beachcomber RV Resort is nice. Clean property. Common areas are clean and nice and cool! Utility box blew and it was fixed 2.5 hours after call. Sites are minium and close together but it's ok.
Great little spot to stop on the way. Far enought from main road. Fantastic sky at night.
I visited this place last year in July when we decided to check out this casino, and I must say I really enjoyed it. Since I don't have the opportunity to visit such establishments in person anymore, I play online, and I have to say it's very convenient. I also want to share some advice from https://notgamstop.com/uk-gb/gamstop-faq/how-to-get-around-gamstop/ about bypass Gamstop, as I recently found it quite useful. In our time, this is a rather helpful topic, though it's not often discussed, so I recommend checking it out and keeping it in mind.
You have shared some good information so far. I would like to get more information about this place. Thank you so much for sharing.
