      Our Favorite!!!

      Lake Alamo is one of our favorite spots!!! Great place for SxS riding. I've been riding here over 15yrs and always find new trails. Must visit the Wayside Oasis for Lunch and a beer on every visit.

      Good Experience

      Stayed the week before Thanksgiving/ mild weather. Mid week so not crowded. Reserved ahead in campground near next to the river. There are day use picnic spots between the campsites and the river which was unique. Since there was only one other camper in that section and and day users it was no problem. On a crowded weekend it could get weird. The views of the river and the mountains in the distance were so nice. Staff was super friendly on the way in. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked. Campsite parking is on grass. Watch out for the little stumps/poles separating campsites. They blend in with the grass at certain times. Nice variety of birds. Only stayed one night, but good time.

      Lake Havasu State Park Campground

      Overflow Parking with a Beach View...Yes, Please!

      We love it when parks have a plan for traveling campers like us who hate making reservations, and Lake Havasu came through in spades. They have a whole section of their campground dedicated to folks like us. We pulled up, grabbed a space, and spent the night right by the lakeshore. 

      I’m afraid we didn’t take pictures of the parking area as we were so taken with the view! It’s a huge parking lot with dedicated camping spaces, with picnic tables, trash cans and plenty of space between your neighbors. The bathrooms offer flush toilets, sinks and warm showers. 

      The RV dump tanks were close by, as is the vast boat launch area. While the overnight area might be a little more spartan, the rest of the park is gorgeous with looping campsite areas, rentable cabins, and winding paths. 

      Yet, it’s still within the town limits, so everything you might need, or want, is a short walk, bike ride, or drive away. You can even catch the ferry to the casinos across the lake if you want to lose your spending money. 

      Hiking, biking and paddling opportunities could all be reached from the campsite. Each site along the beach had some trees for shade, but all the sunshine you could want for solar power as well.  We’ll keep this place in mind when we want a quick overnight with some shower access close to town.

      Got Camping Plans for Christmas?

      We stumbled onto this lovely state park campground on Christmas Eve, with no reservations (as usual) and found more than just a lovely campsite, but a whole community of campers. Each year this small park hosts a thriving Christmas potluck which is managed by their long term volunteer camp host couple. Many families plan their year around getting a reservation to be at this place on Christmas day!  We were simply blown away by the community, camaraderie, and fellowship we found here. 

      We even tried out our first run at making homemade tamales – turned out pretty good.

      Now the sites are what you might expect to see, slightly less than spacious lots with a bit of  elbow room in between your neighbors. All sites are electrical and water serviced, so no need to have generators running into the wee hours. With lots of well cared for cottonwood trees, the sites offer lots of shade and space to enjoy your area. 

      The bathrooms have flush toilets with warm showers, and while a little dated, they were clean and did the job.  Nice dishwashing sink (wish more parks had these!) and picnic tables all over the place.  I think we ate nearly every meal down by the water.

      The lake shore offers a good boat launch with a massive trailer parking area, and a small swimming area as well. You can rent kayaks and paddle boards from the park to enjoy the water, just be aware of the way the wind is blowing -- it can get fierce quickly! There is a beach volleyball court at the water's edge and hiking trails leave directly from the park and wind along the lakeshore and into the desert landscape. 

      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.

      Very enjoyable!

      Never camped before in my life, so I have nothing to compare this to. Having said that- the staff were great, bathrooms very clean. The weather was quite warm, so we didn’t do much exploring. Also - the donkeys!! Everywhere!

      Friendly area with river access

      Although campsites are close together, there are many spots for friend groups to park near each other. Walking distance to the river. Walking distance to nearby bar/restaurant. Very friendly and clean area!

      Alamo Lake State Park Campground

      Beautiful Lake

      A few things. 1st. If you plan on staying overnight with an RV do not reserve the Ramada sites. They’re meant for day use and are super tiny and squished together. We started there, but our 24ft trailer wasn’t even close to fitting. So we had to move.

      We moved to the sites with no water and no electric. Super awesome sites, very clean and very quiet.

      Donkeys…..there are tons of donkeys, really cool…..the first night. They’re cool until you realize they don’t sleep and all they do is make a lot of noise,lol. Not that I wouldn’t go back again because of the donkeys, but just be prepared they’re not far away and they make the “hee-haw” noise All Night Long, lol.

      Don’t camp here without water sports or Side by side. There aren’t any trails for bike riding or hiking. But the water is great to spend a couple of days on and the Side by side trails are endless.

      Overall, really nice camping. I would definitely go back, with or without a SxS. Just not in the summer….there’s no shade and it’s desert.

      6 month stay

      Love the springs! Just far enough away from the city and also close to Parker strip! Awesome pool and spa. Motel rooms, par 3 golf course, Marina, camp store and restaurant/bar! Winter crowed is mostly snowbirds & remote workers. Rates are super reasonable. Stayed sept-March and would totally come back again!

      Not that great

      Pulled into our reserved spot only to see a 6ft x 6ft section roped off for a drip irrigation repair. It was really great to have this area roped off right where you would normally have the awning out and sit. Would have been nice to know this was being worked on when I booked so I could have looked for another spot. Otherwise it is a fine enough campground.

      Alamo State Park: Section D

      Alamo Lake is a long-time favorite spot. Only a couple hours West of PHX and some great views with an abundance of SxS / ATV trails. Alamo Lake is also very well known for it's fish (especially bass & crappie). Section C has Water & Electric. Section D is primitive and as such, less crowded. This is a great place Oct - April. Outside of those dates, you'll want Electric so you can run the A/C. Wi-Fi & cell service is questionable. Some spots are good, others are not. While I've done a lot of work out here, try to stay off the devices, PCs and TVs. Enjoy what's out here!!

      Long term residence by the river

      No river views to speak of. A lot of long term full time residents. The general store comes in handy and sells liquor, beer and wine. The boat launch is kind of awkward.

      Not well kept, but undergoing some construction

      This is a decent little county park. I have a glimpse of the lower Colorado River. I paid for a premium site with an $8 junk fee to reserve it myself online. It’s nothing to write home about. A very typical river rat campground.

      Riverfront camping

      We had to make the miles, so we arrived late after dark and left fairly early the next morning, so we were not able to fully appreciate this campground, located right on the Colorado River. We are glad we made a reservation, however, as the campground was full (Easter night).

      Site Quality: We were in one of the three “premium” sites. Site 4 has no neighbors on one side and direct beach access from the rear of the site. A large picnic table and fire pit are at each site. All sites are paved and level and most can fit an RV or car/boat. The sites in the middle do not have much privacy and are separated by a chalk line in the sand. 

      Bath/Shower house: Several are located throughout the campground. Clean. Didn’t use the shower so cannot comment on that. 

      Activities/Amenities: All expected river activities, including swimming, boating, and fishing (many brought all the toys). Beach volleyball, sandy beach. Kayak and SUP rentals are available. ADA-accessible path. Nice amphitheater. Fish cleaning station and desert plant garden. A labyrinth, something we have never encountered in a campground. 

      Even though we don’t have a boat or fish, I wish we had more time to relax on the beach and enjoy this campground, but I would choose one of the premium sites for more privacy.

      Spacious and clean

      We showed up early, and the spot we were assigned was occupied. The attendant checked us in, and let us wait in the boat launch area. We unpacked a couple of chairs and sat on the rivers edge until our spot was ready

      Alamo Lake State Park Campground

      It was ok

      Truth be told I prefer camping at elevation with pine trees etc. It is winter in AZ so that was not an option for this trip. Our friends found this place and booked the sites. We were in the Ramada section. It has electric but no water at the sites. There are about 10 total sites in this section with a bathroom (clean). Our site was not level from to back so we had to lower the camper to about 3 in off the ground in the front. There was a tree which was nice but it also meant I had to park far from the power for the site. The cord reached with just a little slack in it. Ramada section is in the Maintenance area or the campground so I got to see a shed, tractors and Diesel tanks from my door. The lake was about 3/4 mile from our site. The camp rangers were very nice. The campground was clean and the general store was good too. Overall not my vibe for camping.

      Clean & friendly

      Arrived at Lake Havasu State Park on the evening of 1-6-23 to stay one night. The campground was full but they offered me overflow camping (no hookups) for $25 a night. My site ended up being right on the lake/beach and so beautiful. They have clean restrooms (flush) with showers, potable water and dump stations free for guests and close to parks and many amenities. The Park Staff and volunteers were super friendly and we're genuinely happy to help out or answer questions. Needless to say, I booked 6 more days after my one night was finished (7 day limit). I highly recommend Lake Havasu State Park in Arizona!!

      A flu(ke) trip

      The park is very nicely laid out and the site was great. We got kinda lucky cuz the country was shut down due to the flu from China and there was hardly anyone around. Our first trip there was Dec 2020 and most everything was closed, on our 2nd trip in Oct 2022 the place was very busy with snowbirds & all the camps & cabins were booked. Though we liked our first trip we wouldn't return cuz it's just too popular.

      Great weekend

      This was my first time camping since I was a kid. Was it the most beautiful place? No, unless it’s nighttime because the stars are beautiful way out there. The lake was nice, the campsites were immaculate, the bathrooms were incredibly clean, and the rangers were awesome and friendly.

      Beautiful setting on the grassy shores of the Colorado river.

      We had a large shady site with river views.  It is a beautifully kept campground. Our dogs enjoyed the spacious and grassy dog park. Bathrooms/showers were basic and kept clean and functional.  Cell service was nonexistent for T-Mobile.  There is a boat ramp and designated swimming area. Very family friendly. There was no excess noise from campers or dogs.  A great experience.

      This park is maintained VERY well and is super clean! You do have to contend with some boaters coming and going, but it’s not bad at all. Beach and swimming area are clean.
