Park Management is no longer allowing anyone without a self contained vehicle to use the dump station.
Clean & friendly
Arrived at Lake Havasu State Park on the evening of 1-6-23 to stay one night. The campground was full but they offered me overflow camping (no hookups) for $25 a night. My site ended up being right on the lake/beach and so beautiful. They have clean restrooms (flush) with showers, potable water and dump stations free for guests and close to parks and many amenities. The Park Staff and volunteers were super friendly and we're genuinely happy to help out or answer questions. Needless to say, I booked 6 more days after my one night was finished (7 day limit). I highly recommend Lake Havasu State Park in Arizona!!
A flu(ke) trip
The park is very nicely laid out and the site was great. We got kinda lucky cuz the country was shut down due to the flu from China and there was hardly anyone around. Our first trip there was Dec 2020 and most everything was closed, on our 2nd trip in Oct 2022 the place was very busy with snowbirds & all the camps & cabins were booked. Though we liked our first trip we wouldn't return cuz it's just too popular.
2nd great visit to this park
This is our 2nd stay at Lake Havasu State Park. We had site C-2 in the cabin loop with W/E. Recommend weekdays if you like quiet camping. We were there Monday thru Thursday with only a couple days advanced resi and had the cabin loop all to ourselves until the last night. Most weekends are booked. As always the park is immaculate with nice personal combo bathrooms & showers. Clean & level tent sites as well. The park staff had huge smiles and waves at the gate every time we returned from our days adventure. Great welcome!

Good for visiting area
This park is nice. Right on the water and has plenty of boat launch areas. Can get busy with traffic in the mornings and evenings with all the boats getting launched and pulled out.
Cabin 12, Gila monster
Stayed in the cabin loop, cabin 12 “Gila Monster”. Enjoyed the cabin so much we stayed an additional night. Cabins everything you’d want with amazing few of lake. Warm showers and clean bathrooms. Lake havasu is a great place to visit in winter!
Balloon festival
We've stayed here several times for the balloon festival. The restrooms have showers in this part of the park. It is dry camping, but they have a dump. Not all of the spots are level.

Right in town but the view helps you forget that.
I didn't have reservations and the campground was full when I got here. But they have an camping overflow lot. For $25 a day you can park right at the beach. No hook ups but there is a bath and shower house, dump station and potable water available.

Great State Park
Made reservations for one of the sites facing the Lake (#40). Checked in (by giving last name) with a wonderfully nice and helpful staff member. 50 and 30 Amp service along with water hook up. Even cement pad with a picnic table to the side. Since it was 112 degrees the 50 foot walk to the waters edge and a quick dip was the refreshing needed. Wet Monkey boat rentals is located right at the park. The London Bridge is about 2 miles South.
This is a great location when visiting Havasu City
Arizona State Beach
Camped here April 28 and stayed for 2 nights. Was very close to home but wanted to test out the new trailer. It's $30 a night for non beach sites and $40 for beach front. The sites are well separated and there are fire rings, cabana and picnic tables at each site. There is also water and electric at all sites, 30 and 50 amp. Its was very warm the days we stayed and had the A/C on the whole time. There are flush toilets and showers available. Nice hiking trails around the park. The campground staff are all pleasant and they keep the sites and bathrooms very clean. Its even close enough to town that you can walk to many nice restaurants. The beach's are sandy and you have a nice view of the sunset over the water in the evening. There is a dump station for those with holding tanks. All sites are reservable and there are also air conditioned cabins for rent.
This is a state park.
Loved this place.... the spots on the beach are 5.00 more but worth it for the view & privacy! My second night was #16 and it was one of the best sites! Pictures speak louder than words. Water & Electric, excellent cell coverage with AT&T. Dump site at top of the hill. Lots of action on the water to watch. I was here in Feb 2021, 65 to 70 degrees. It can get a bit windy, but the sites are well protected for the most part.

beach life on the lake
sandy beaches and plenty of places to RV, camp, or even rent a cabin. So many neat things for children too so make sure you ask when you pull in for coloring books and a junior ranger packet... keep them kiddos busy. summertime this place is popping, not too busy in the off-seasons but a really nice sandy beach, fun in the sun type of place. very well maintained and affordable.
Here are my star ratings based on my lifestyle and what I like. I'm also a mother, dog mama, and a wife so it's not just me it's my crew and i. 1 star- AUTOMATIC relocate… the property is no longer there, trashed or/and I could never have my children there and I wouldn't ever think about staying no matter what. 2 star- Not really my jam, and would NEVER go to again… It probably more of desert life and not really my style for sure…Being from Vegas I can't stand being in the desert and I love the Trees and the Green more than anything. 3 star- Would stay there again in a pinch, but not really my style, the reason its not is because not enough family things to do, the scenery, or the location… but I would go again and feel safe having my kiddos here but only if I needed to in a pinch. 4 star- a really good rating for sure, maybe needed some improvements, minor things like being on top of each other, not a lot of privacy, but honestly little cosmetic things that aren't anything to sweat and would be back again for sure. 5 star- MY FAVORITE… love the location, safety, the surroundings, big camp spots available to fit toys for my kids to play, hammocks to hang, our big family tent, cases of firewood, our suburban or RV, etcccccc….. I would not only come back but would live if I could!!! Anyway thanks for reading and enjoy every moment like it's your last! CHEERS!

Beautiful sites
We stayed 3 night in our trailer at Lake Havasu State Park campground. We had a beautiful view of of the lake. My kids loved walking down to the shore and swimming throughput the day. We went in Aug and it was 112 degrees but we had a fantastic time. We can’t wait to go again!
Very nice
Best place to be.
Close to town
This park is right on the shores of Lake Havasu. You could walk to town but we bike down to shopping and the bridge. Large sites. Very busy so book early!
Havasu !
No frills - gotta like the outdoors it’s hot hot hot !!! Water sport country bring the boat the family have a great time
its no frills so you need everything if you camp here
No Shade and No Privacy
Lake Havasu is a beautiful lake with lots of wildlife and it's very scenic too. We visit every year, either in January or April because we have family in the area. The Best Park of Camping at Lake Havasu State Park is using it as a base for kayaking and fishing on the lake. The park itself has decent amenities, but it definitely caters to motor boats, and people with lots of toys. We only bring a small tent so we kind of stick out among the huge RVs. The place is packed in the evenings, but it thins out during the day when everyone is on the water. Because there are so many boats on the lake and at the boat launch, the fumes can be a bit overbearing. Also, there is no shade at all, which I guess I kind of expected. Luckily we were there in January, so that part was okay.
There is a nice playground and swimming area for kids, but there were also very loud campers on either side of us. Next time, we are going to stay at one of the BLM sites on the lake. We've heard they are very quiet and peaceful.

Enjoy Lake Havasu
Enjoy Lake Havasu by being right on the lakeside. What better way to beat the dry, Arizona desert heat. We tented the weekend we camped. We also had hammocks to lounge in during the day when not in/on the water. Nice facilities and an easy way to enjoy Lake Havasu affordably.
Hammock friendly & right on the water
The staff were amazing! Incredibly friendly & filled with information. Although there are few trees around they were hammock friendly for those of us that prefer hammocks over tents. It was extremely hot but that is Arizona in summer so it's a huge beni that the campsites are right on the lake yet still close enough to go get food or coffee or anything else we may have wanted from town. Would definitely recommend Lake Havasu State Park for camping!
Spring Break
I used to visit this state park for Spring Break back in the 90's. Lots of people and lots of fun. Plenty of places to put up a tent and relax or party!
