Scaddan Wash Camping Area

We were only here for one night and didn't venture too far off the road since we pulled in kinda late. Plenty of spots to park both near the highway and further away. Can stay up to 14 days for no charge. Did see a few homeless folk living under tarps around us, but no bother. If you're a geocacher, there are lots of caches in the area so plan to stay a day or two. We would stay here again.

It's free, it's convenient and I was only here for a night. Next time I'd probably stay on some land further away from the highway. There was a camp host who was very friendly and the sunset and sunrise were both gorgeous.
Didn't see any garbage which was nice!
I was able to find a pretty level spot (only 21 feet so it's easy). Be aware if you arrive at night there are a few washed and camp fire pits around. Also, the road in gets a bit messy so it might be best to drive out the main entrance rather than heading down the "paved" road.

The RV Pit Stop nearby has paid dump and water fill up.

This is a great place to come stay while visiting the Big Tent RV Show and Gem & Rock Show in Quartzsite. We stayed here for 8 days and even though it was very busy we were able to find a spot relatively quiet with plenty of space between us and our neighbors. The only downside we noticed were tons of ATVers riding past all day every day. We stayed at exactly 33.661132, -114.186548 which had a very nice path over to Dome Rock Road East to make it really easy to ride our bikes into town when running errands. We loved staying here and would again. 4G signal was great but slow with all the users in the area, amenities were very close - RV Pitstop for water (fresh & drinking), propane (and accessories), dump (and tank flush), bagged ice, and all at a very reasonable price. There is also the Refuse Transfer Station where you can dump your trash for free! The General Store in town has fresh produce and the Family Dollar has more household items, but those are the biggest stores in town. They also offer Glacier Drinking water kiosks. There's even a RedBox at the Family Dollar!

We came to Quartzite for the 2016 Xscapers Convergence. Free camping is everywhere here and we stayed in this general area. You just drive off the highway until you find an open area to call your own. We personally would have stayed in a more remote location but we came for an event.

Expect dust and amazing sunsets here. ATVs are allowed to ride on the streets here though, which was a big help for us. If you need a part for your ol' RV it can be found in this town. There's a very eclectic RV flea market along with gem and mineral venders.

We had cell and data here, I remember the Verizon was epic fast. Watch our videos for the Quartzsite experience.
