"Buckskin is another favorite if you don’t mind the heat but want to be within walking distance to the water. The river is extremely busy during the summer months."
"Your steps away from the cool river, if you wanted to sit in the water. Lots and lots of boats up and down the river."
$50 / night
"Great way to afford enjoying Lake Havasu. Note this is an Arizona State Park so daily vehicle rates do apply if just visiting and/or camping."
"After driving through Havasu City this was a welcome oasis from the traffic and strip malls. The campground is on a slope so bring your leveling skills."
$50 / night
"Due to its location, it is pretty quiet."

"Very nice spot on the California side of the Colorado river. No hookups, but nice tables & gravel lots. If you have your lifetime passport for American parks it’s only 2.50 a night!"
"25 sites (many bordering the River), many with Salt Cedar trees for shade, available for reservations online (recreation.gov). A few sites available on a first come, first served basis. 2 week limit."
"The entrance is relatively smooth. Any size rig can stay here.
Although there were several rv's here, it was very quiet. Good star gazing and close to town."
"Only minutes from Lake Havasu City. Lots of room to find a semi level spot. You can park far enough off the highway no highway noise. Lots of big rigs. No issue for 40’ pusher and 24’ car hauler"

"We love it when parks have a plan for traveling campers like us who hate making reservations, and Lake Havasu came through in spades."
"Much better views and you still have access to the park's amenities--showers, potable water, hiking trails, etc. Plus the vibe is more communal. "
"There are private RV parks on both sides of it that have restaurant/bars on the water that you can walk to which is a great feature. Great location."
"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."
"A short walk from the Colorado River for all your water activities. The staff was helpful. There are some wild burros that stroll around at night and we found them dumping on our mat in the morning."
"Steps away from the falls. Beautiful campground with nice facilities for bathrooms."
"A little crowded but if you go off road you will find a lot of coves. We ended up finding a small beach like cove that was amazing."
$1 - $15 / night
"Close to Walmart and casino."
"Stores nearby."

TravelerThis place is awesome, good camp sites, great camp hosts. Nice beach area, hiking trails, volly ball court launch ramp... Fishing..
GuideWe were running out of steam and had nowhere to stay. We pulled into this state park, and there just so happened to be one spot left from a lucky cancelation for the night. We snatched it up! The bathrooms/showers were clean, the staff was especially nice, and the spot had a shade area, which really helped. We enjoyed rootbeer and phase 10 until the sunset, and wow, how the sky lit up! Thank goodness we received a spot with power to allow for AC all night!
ScoutIt was quiet and not too hard to find. Lots of space. There is some trash but that’s just how a lot of people are these days.
Travelernot many campers so there was PLENTY of spots open. Nice and quiet, highway noise wasn’t too bad and didn’t hear the road at all. Felt pretty safe too!
RangerDo not like. Lots of trash and loud traffic noise. A few level sites. Will not visit again
ScoutI love this location because it is secluded and not packed. There are only 2 spaces so you can be sure to have solitude. The wifi is AMAZING and its a great monthly rate.
TravelerReally easy spot to get into beautiful and empty. I don’t see anyone or hear anyone at all where I’m at plenty of space for a lot of people.
ScoutHuge location. Plenty of room. Nice and quiet
