First the camp Host was AWESOME.. very nice lady that gave us a local Community paper with good info on the area.
we followed the route from the host to the left and towards the right back a ways through one wash area finding a nice large somewhat level spot close to a huge cactus.. which was cool..
the sunsets are amazing here and when dark falls you can see a ton of stars, and see the traffic on I-10 coming down the hill from Dome rock area.
the big issue here is hwy traffic noise.. ALL NIGHT.. we were only here for the night it was not a big deal but if staying longer would have move further back away from the road.. (nothing to absorb the noise)
you are close to the town so food, fuel etc is close by..
Water is available in Hwy 95N a place on the right that provides dump, water and LP.
Water is a deep well filter water, which is quite good in taste and and show 282 on the TDS meter (hardish water) for .25 for 5 gallons or the RO filtered for .25 per gallon.
LP was selling at 2.60 gal this day. i believe a dump was either 5 or 7 dollars.
you are just around the corner form the LTVA BLM, La Posa N & S, area which cost like $180 buck to stay from Sept to April without having to move like regular BLM requires.
this is a good place to spend a week or so close to "stuff" and sorta quiet but for sure good dark skies to see the stars.

Bigger rigs may have some trouble getting through the washes to get farther south though. We saw some bigger/longer rigs scraping and bottoming out pretty hard. Overall Scaddan Wash was easy for us to get in and out of.

First time here to check out show and found a spot easy but agree with another reviewer would need to watch for dips in road but we got in early so no problem. Host was helpful; can pay $40 for permit for long term if staying longer if you need to dump and water and garbage but only BLM site to go for that is south on 95. We weren’t staying that long so didn’t need and just found spots on BLM areas surrounding town that weren’t long term which worked for us. Some highway noise and it gets cold at night and not all that warm in day so could have left shorts home. We also had good experiences with Rv Lifestyle and American Custom Tire.

I arrived at 8:30 pm in November so I was pleased at the ease of getting in and finding a spot. As another reviewer said you do need to be aware of washes and homemade fire pits. The camp host was very friendly and helpful, referring me to the nicest LTVAs which I was interested in signing up for after this. You will hear highway noise as this area is off of a frontage road.
By the way, my furnace konked out and RV Lifestyles here in Quartzsite sold me a portable Hearthrite heater while providing great customer service.

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.

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.

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.
