"Drove up to Peach Springs, stopped at the game and fish office and had to wait for them to get back from lunch. Staff was friendly. And informative."
"It's managed by the local tribe so before you start down the road to this campsite you need to get a Trespassing Permit from the Tribal Game Wardens Office which is located next to the store at the top"
"As soon as you get off the highway it’s a right then a right and your in the parking lot. Next to highway so you will hear traffic but a quick stop for sure!"
$80 / night
"Clean vaulted toilets and well maintained site. Each site has a table and fire ring as well as parking for one, sometimes two vehicles."
"Stay was in September and the weather was beautiful. Trees cover almost everything, there is a little creek, and plenty of opportunities to go exploring on hikes. Loved it!"
"Tent camping/car camping only, no RV sites at all. The road is steep, winding, dirt with loose gravel 11 miles off the paved road."
"Tried to camp here on May 20, 2019 and couldn’t access the site because it requires a legitimate 4x4 with big tires. It is no joke."
ScoutI recommend not trying to find this spot at night as visibility is low but this sportsmen camping area does the job. It’s located after truxton right after mile marker 91. There’s two areas one on each side of the road with gates. Gates are unlocked and it’s a free area to park or camp. Went to the one on the left hand side coming from peach springs and stayed fairly close to the gate. Okay terrain for a midsize sedan. Stars look amazing!
ScoutAlthough you can make it to the campground in 2wd, I wouldn’t take a car. SUV/truck preferred. Tent camping/car camping only, no RV sites at all. The road is steep, winding, dirt with loose gravel 11 miles off the paved road. Camp sites have a great view because of the elevation. picnic tables and fire rings in each site as well as many trash receptacles and clean toilets. no other amenities. Rough off-roading in the areas surrounding the campground leading to old mining areas. Awesome views, we went in June when it was probably 110 degrees at the base of the mountain, mid 90s up at the camp site.
GuideLet me start off by saying I made it to this spot in my Kia Niro with its front wheel drive. Not the worst dirt road I've encountered but very steep in some parts and I would not recommend going to this site in the snow unless you have 4 wheel drive, snow chains and experience. I didn't go in the snow but I could imagine. One slip and you're in serious trouble. That out of the way, this place is GREAT!
On the drive up you go through a sleepy little town half way up the mountain, the views along the drive are stunning. Bring plenty of supplies and know its about a 40 min drive each way to get more.
Lots of wildlife in the area, was a little concerned about bears in the area as it looked like they had some scratching posts right around our campsite (pictures posted) but didn't end up seeing a one.
May be pretty tight for a larger RV as sites are pretty small. Vaulted toilets were very well maintained. I will go back!

LEAVE NO TRACE!
LegendI 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.
GuideGoing 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.
GuideThis 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.
ScoutDrove up to Peach Springs, stopped at the game and fish office and had to wait for them to get back from lunch. Staff was friendly. And informative. The road to Diamond Creek camping area was a little rough but well maintained. 22 miles of dirt with breathtaking views as you descended down to the river. Camping area is rustic with no hook ups. 5-7 ramadas with tables and room to turn your rig around. River is within 200 yards of camp site with really good access.
RangerI’m not a fan of KOA unless I am in a pinch for the night and don’t feel the area is good for boondocking. This place is just on the edge of my comfort zone for a KOA. The energy here isn’t quite right. I didn’t talk to any staff with a after hours check in and took off early. It was a parking spot for the night. I didn’t use any hookups, but there’s no privacy between sites at all. It’s an empty field with picnic tables. I didn’t use the amenities because showers were $10. A train is notably close to the campground. No wifi...
GuideHiking and views for days. Clean vaulted toilets and well maintained site. Each site has a table and fire ring as well as parking for one, sometimes two vehicles. Plenty of tree coverage to slow the occasional chilly breeze that crept up on us. 4x4 or all-wheel drive recommended but on a dry day with a well maintained grade a crossover had no problem with the ascent.
All in all a wonderful three night stay with the entire campground to ourselves! I would assume this is a popular place in warmer weather times. And I'll be back!
