Lake Havasu State Park

We arrived on a Thursday with no reservations, but with the help of an awesome staff, we ended staying on for a total of 7 nights! We did have to move camp a couple of times, but loved it here so much we didn’t mind! It’s clean, well staffed, and you can’t beat the views and white sandy beaches! We didn’t use bathrooms or showers, but noticed they are building new ones currently.
The location can’t be beat, just a couple minutes to town, two minutes to the London Bridge and other touristy stuff. There’s several boat rental places, and plenty of water to use them! Enjoy!

There wasn’t anything I didn’t enjoy about this park. Beautiful area right on the water. We camped in the mid section but still had a view of the water. Close walk to the beach area. Picnic tables on the beach where we watched the sun set behind the mountains at the back side of the lake. Dump station as you come in/leave the park. Site had electric and water. Dumpsters throughout the park. Very friendly staff. Did not want to leave. My fav park so far.

First time staying there and we really enjoyed it. Nice an clean restrooms/showers. Sites large enough for rv trailer and boat trailer. Boat launches in park. Friendly and polite staff, neighbors and people visiting. Roads were easy navigating with a 40ft 5th wheel. If you want a site on the beach recommend 7, 8, 10. We had #4 with a big area and 60 yard walk to beach/water. It was Cinco De Mayo weekend, so lake was busy with boats and loud during day. Check out London Bridge and shopping district.

This state park is right on the lake and in town just a short trip from the London Bridge. We were here during the winter so the was very little boat activity but it's surrounded by boat launches and I imagine can get quite noisy during prime boating season because of that. As it was there was some road noise, but not too bad considering it's proximity.

The folks at the front gate were extremely welcoming, helpful and friendly. The campground was a bit confusing to drive through but we managed to find our site which was very large with a lot of space between us and our nearest neighbor. It was also right next to the lake but the view was blocked by some bushes. This turned out to be a good thing as the bushes also blocked the strong wind coming off the lake.

It is a very clean campground and much of it appeared to be recently renovated. Lots of fresh pavement, new picnic tables with covers and nice split rail fencing. We have two dogs that love the water and there was a dog beach just a few hundred feet from our site. This was a good thing for them after being on the road all day.

Power and water hookups and no sewer, but there is an easy access dump station.

We tried to get a site with electricity but they were full for the weekend. That is no problem for us as we are set up to dry camp. There was plenty of room in the overflow site and we camper right at the edge of the beach. The showers were very clean and the park rangers very professional and helpful. We loved this spot. The sunsets were beautiful and it was fun to watch the watercraft launching. Quite a few cigarette boats launched from there. Overflow cost $25 per night but we had access to the dump station and fresh water.

The campground was full so we went into the overflow/oversize lot. What a great place to stay. Luckily we got a beach front spot and spent three nights right on the beach with 180 degree view of the lake. The overflow is dry camping with restrooms and free showers at hand. There’s potable water and a dump station nearby. The campground is about a mile away and is also very nice with some lake front spots as well. I would definitely come back to the campground with a reservation or to the overflow without hesitation. I rated the noise as a four because of generators being used in the morning and evening in the overflow. Otherwise, it was quiet.

We enjoyed the state park because it had a nice sandy beach area, was right in town, the sites were spacious and the dogs loved swimming every morning and night.Be sure to check out the London Bridge. You can take in views of the bridge while enjoying cold beers at Barley Brother’s Brewery, or you can go on sunset boat tours! We also had a fun time taking the $2.00 ferry across the lake to the casino one night. And of course, you have to enjoy the water in whatever way suits you. We rented stand up paddle boards from Nautical Watersports, which was conveniently next to the awesome Turtle Beach Bar that makes you feel like you’re in the Caribbean!

This park is very nicely laid out. The sites with hookups are very nice. We couldn't get into one of those because we came during February (busy time). We camped in the overflow camping lot which happens to be right on the beach. We stayed for 7 days and loved it. They happen to have a bass fishing tournament on Thursday which made for a lot of noise and exhaust fumes but other than that it was nice. Showers are fantastic and bathrooms are very clean. When it is high season you are tightly tucked together. Remember it is a parking lot after all. Over all I would definitely recommend the park and will come back (with a reservation for a hook up site) in the future.

We visited Lake Havasu a few months before my husband's mountain biking race so he could try out the course. This wasn't a bucket list destination for us, but it was a nice trip to take over New Year's. The spots are roomy but not really private. You can pay $5 more for a beach spot, but we didn't bother. Our lake views were interrupted by others' RVs, obviously, but it's big lake.

We were there during the down season, but even though boaters were few and far between the campground was still full the whole time we were there. Maybe that was because of the holidays. Everyone was friendly and kind, and it was nice to meet others and chat.

The rangers at the guard booth were very friendly and helpful, and they seem to be out and about often checking things out and clearing sites almost immediately after campers pull out. The restrooms have flush toilets, and the camp hosts keep them spotless. The rug in front of the sink and nicer soaps are a thoughtful touch. I appreciated the hand lotion, too. The dump station has room for two, but the flush hose on our side didn't have a connector. If you carry an extra, you're good to go.

We had a little trouble finding the place because we used Google. That takes you to the middle of SARA Park, so make sure you fill in the street address from their website so you get there more efficiently. It's close to London Bridge and a pretty park just to the south of the bridge. SARA Park is about six miles away, and the Crack in the Mountain Trail is a must-do. We and our kids (12 and 9) really enjoyed going through that slot canyon. My husband said the mountain biking trails there were excellent, too.

It's an easily accessible, clean campground in Lake Havasu. If we are ever there again, I might try some of the state parks just south of it though like Buckskin Mountain. The sites here were just a little too close to each other, and there are very few lush trees to create any sense of privacy from fellow campers.

We stayed here twice. The first time before they added water and electrical for $20 per night. That means they upped the charge $15 per night for water and power,, not such a great deal in my mind. Still a nice park and if you don't care about waterfront you can save $5. That being said it will be more appealing to those that like the hookups.
Easy access to town and the tourist stuff. I bet it gets crazy loud in the summer with the hot rod boats on the water but that's the attraction to some.
