Locations like Riverside Adventure Trails RV Resort incorporate glamping units alongside traditional camping, with many providing full bathroom facilities. One guest shared, "This Cove is sheltered from wind by trees and tall grass. A small peninsula also blocks direct site from the water so this is a very private site."

The Colorado River provides a natural playground for glamping visitors, with several properties offering direct water access. Riverside Adventure Trails features multiple adventure options including boat-in, drive-in, hike-in and walk-in access to their safari-style accommodations. Crystal-clear water at Arrowhead Cove creates opportunities for swimming and wildlife viewing, with several reviewers noting exceptional bird watching from their glamping sites.

    Katherine Landing South Campground

    Close to all the action

    Really a nice campground, nice big spots, tables and a fire pit as well as a laundry room and did I mention clean bathrooms!!! oleander trees space out each camp spot which give you all the privacy anyone could need. Perfect place to ride bikes and it’s a good walking distance to the pier with restaurant, grocery store, fishing and boat rentals. This is like a village in its own. Great area for sure and it’s the perfect time now before it’s to hot.

    Riverside Adventure Trails RV Resort

    An oasis in the heat!

    Arrived late on a Sunday and met by a lovely security guard who showed us to a pitch. The pool was an absolute lifesaver in the August heat! Friendly locals (we needed a tin opener!) and several chatted to us in the pool and social room. Site is clean, toilets and shower block spacious and tidy. Book exchange and games/jigsaws. Would highly recommend.

    Davis Camp Park - Mohave County

    Anything and everything

    This camp ground has so much it’s a little village in its own. Who doesn’t love camping and walking straight out to the River at your feet? Literally tent camping is allowed that close. Forgot your ice? They sale that on site as well. They have dump stations for your RVs and fresh water source to Fill up. They have covered tables and bbq grills as well. You can rent cabins that they have available but they are always booked up so if that’s what your after make sure to book in advance. Even if your not camping and you just want to go in it’s ten dollars no matter just so you know. Summer time this place is lines miles long so get there a day early before the weekend starts to save you a little wait. This place you can get to by boat, drive, and even walking. They do have clean bathrooms and it’s Well kept. Keep your food in containers because they have skunks and raccoons.. I know crazy.. little fact the entire Laughlin area has them near the water and hotels because they want a quick meal. AnywAy have proper storage because you may wake up to nothing... really nice place on the water!

    Davis Camp Park - Mohave County

    Waterfront campsites

    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! Lots of families with jet skis, which we found entertaining although noisy. We just parked our beach chairs in the water as it was hot!! Bath and showers ok, but a hike up the stairs. Pet friendly, too!

    Colorado River Oasis RV Resort

    great amenities

    They have their own entrance to the river which is super neat because if you rent jet skis you can get back to your lodging any time of the day. Also if you have a boat you can load and unload it with the private ramp which is a bonus.

    They have full hookups, tables, laundry, a pool, and the river. very nice place and well kept.

    also on-site, they have vacation rentals right on the river!! so check them out!! super clean and a neat place they have here and I will be back.

    It's neat if you take the water taxis across to the casinos and walk the boardwalk, there are so many bugs so be prepared. o posted pictures of us on the boardwalk and the jet ski we rented which is a great spot just down the street from the rv park

    Ridgeview RV Resort

    Super nice and weekend brunch

    This place is really everything in more. Your away from the hustle and bustle of the river traffic but close enough to still Enjoy.

    Clean bathrooms Spotless pool and spa Stunning restaurant that offers brunch for $5 dollars on the weekends.

    Some of the best spots were 122, 63, 55 they had some shade. They don’t have tables so bring your own. They do have full hook ups and private little rentals if need be. Super impressed! Great roads for biking Friendly people as well.

    Arrowhead Cove — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

    Private cove with gentle waters

    I was looking for a remote Cove to set up for a couple nights on Lake Mead and found this little gem off the beaten path but still accessible on a rugged and steeply graded access road. There is a sign at the entrance of Mead-Davis Powerline Rd road that says 4x4 recommended... Take this to heart.

    (We came down from north of the cove off of Princess Cove Rd. There is also access from the south off of the same Princess Cove Rd. We didn't see that route driving in at night... Probably try that next time.)

    This Cove is sheltered from wind by trees and tall grass. A small peninsula also blocks direct site from the water so this is a very private site.

    The water is the clearest I've ever seen and the water fowl dive freely along the banks. There is a treasure trove of wildlife here apparent just from the birds singing. It was a cacophony of songbirds just before the sun went down over the mountains over the water to the west, Nevada's coastline to the Colorado River fed Lake. There are also Gila monsters, tortoise, mules and many more creatures that come visit the water-side.

    It was refreshing rinsing off in the crisp, clear water! Bring water shoes as most of the coastline is rocky. 

    Do not leave food out and also there are no glass containers allowed at this location! Respect your wildlife community and those enforcing the sustainable practices. Shout out to the upstanding rangers working this area! Thanks for watching over us and the respectful reminders.
