Large area with plenty of room to choose a spot. Had to pick and choose an entrance as some were steep for our 5th wheel. We lived watching the hot air balloons morning and evening.

We’ve been camping here as snowbirds on our travels but this year it’s exploded. Used to be a quiet spot near town to stop on our travels. Nearly three times as many people here compared to past years and it’s getting crowded. A great spot if there weren’t so many people. And lots of dogs, some running loose which is never a good thing... more

We went a ways down the road, right before the road turns. Plenty of spots and you could be spread out from your neighbors. Got a bit busy once the holiday hit with loud people parking nearby but I imagine that is not the norm, as we had it to ourselves most of the week. We went to Pleasant Harbor RV Resort that someone mentioned in ... more

Quiet place, lots of space, windy when we visited. Safe places to walk the doggies, cactus were large enough to see/avoid.

Great area; we will be coming back. Tons of room, flat and excellent 5G, as well as being close to town and close to Lake Pleasant. The land permit was $20 and it covers 14 days per year.

Overall Rating

We loved it here. It was our first boondocking experience. We found a HUGE spot and there were several more so it IS big rig friendly. There are several road accesses, I'd just scout a spot first if you can. Just go slow, we did fine. Every morning we were greeted with hot air balloons. It's quiet and peaceful.

Permit required. Spoke with the Sheriffs as they patrolled. They stated that there was a new emphasis on keeping to the 14 days per year. They were recording all vehicles into a database so they could track use over time for compliance.

We chose a spot away from the New River highway and past the wash. Trucks would periodically pass going to the farm at the end of the road.
