Pirate Cove

Nice park and amenities, full hookups on the peninsula. Could use more shade less fee's. It gets busy on weekends. Close to the Topock gorge.

The drive up is beautifully landscaped and for $81 a night, we had our hopes up Instead we found probably the worst campground we’ve ever been to in our 30+ years of camping. Filthy, dirty and horribly run down. Their website advertises a water play park and we saw two family’s try to get it to work only to find that the water was turned off over 2 years ago. They squeeze you in so close together that there is zero privacy. Plan on staying inside your rig the whole time. For the filth, lack of maintenance and misleading advertising I wish I could give them negative stars but I can’t. Oh, and for the privilege of staying in all the dirt, dust and mess we got to pay $81 a night NON REFUNDABLE. We had booked and paid for 5 nights. We stayed 3 nights and left.

This “resort” was overcrowded, loud and packed with off-road vehicles. Unattended children were recklessly running in front of vehicles dangerously while their parents were getting drunk at the bar.

The back-in spots are paired with 3 parties and they are basically on top of each other. There is no privacy or space. You might as well be sleeping in each other’s RV.

There were so many ATVs and vehicles that I couldn’t get into the campground site. It caused my vehicle to get stuck in the sand. Instead of helping, the resort takes no liability for that and they make sure you know that. Security have a “3rd party” come get you out when it’s clearly an off-the-book employee who knows the staff personally.

This is NOT a campground to have a campfire, a drink with friends by the river and enjoy the view.
