Great stop over night

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.

Needles, CA….Would stay again

Very cute place. Sites have cement patios, there are colorful bushes that separate the sites. Fit our 42’ 5th wheel perfect. Nice pool and very clean and friendly park.

Second visit

Nice tall Oleander shrubs provide shade and privacy between sites. Generous sized pull through sites. This time we stayed in the back row (in front of the full timers) and it was so quiet. Previously we stayed near the office and could hear some road noise from I-40; much quieter in the back. Each site has a concrete patio. Grateful for Hook-ups as it has been over 100 degrees each time we've stayed and A/C is necessary. Quiet people camp here. Nice pool. Cheap gas, water jug station and RV self wash just across the border.

We’ll maintained with privacy bushes between sites.

We had a great experience here. Our trailer has a view of the landscape of palms and undeveloped land behind the park. All amenities were great! We were greeted by the host and lead to our site. Each site has a concrete pads. Internet was fair. We couldn’t get cable at our site.

Nice place, fair price

This campground has all large pull through sites with not quite level gravel pads. There is a paved “patio” area at each site. Sites are separated by a privacy hedge of oleander that also offers some shade. The pool is a nice relief from the desert heat. Basically a good place to stop in the middle of a hot and dry stretch of highway asking a reasonable price compared to the surrounding RV campgrounds.

Stay here, not the KOA nextdoor

Shady respite from the Mojave. Nice tall oleander shade hedges between each site offering total privacy. Long, flat pull through sites. Beautiful tiled private showers. Swimming pool is a must on hot Mojave days. Super nice management. Close to town for meals, shopping and cheap gas across the state line. Could hear big trucks on adjacent freeway but quiet enough for a good nights rest. Stay here....it looks tropical compared to the dry, dust, shadeless parking lot of a KOA next door.

Well the name says it all

Gravel roads and oleanders between each site for total privacy. You are in the desert but they have made this place feel like you are not in the desert. Each site is pull through and has a pavement slab for table or chairs, water, sewer and 50 amp hook ups. On property they offer showers, T-Mobile phone service, dump station, picnic tables, toilets, WiFi and trash. Pets are allowed! Yayyy... Reservations can be made.

Feels very private!

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).

This campground is also a very close walk to the Colorado River, and the River Front Cafe which has some pretty great food if you don't feel like you want to cook.

This campground has huge bushes and trees in between each RV station and gives you the feeling like it's totally private. It also gives you some extra sun protection and shade, making your camper feel cooler.

It has a pool and laundry mat on site, but I didn't see much else.
