This is a BLM boondocking site outside of Yuma, AZ for up to 14 free days. There are no designated sites. You camp where you fit in. The gravel road in is called E. County 7 1/2 St, and it's a bit washboardy. We could only do 20 mph in our motorhome. If coming south from Quartzite on US 95 get off at Madonna Rd for E. County 7 1/2 St. For other directions, take S. Ave. 7E off US 95 (Circle K on corner). There are 3 entrances to the campground. Only the north & middle ones have a sign. You can't really miss it though; just look for the rigs.

The location is very nice, although it can get very dusty when the wind picks up. The pond has fishing and lots of coots swimming around. Bring blocks for leveling up. Because the CG can get crowded and the interior road isn't that good plus tree branches, I'd recommend rigs 25' and under. We had trouble getting around the pond to find a big enough site for our 38' class A. Most campers are tenters, cars/vans and short rigs. The only facilities are a port-a-potty and overflowing dumpster.
