We stayed here from mid-October 2023 through mid-February 2024. This park is a 55+ park and is very quiet day and night. If you are retired, they have plenty of activities going on throughout the month. Dances, breakfast, jam sessions, poker, bingo, darts, a craft room, a wood shop, and walking to outer edge of the park is 0.75 miles each lap. The sunsets are gorgeous over the desert. You can get mail and packages here, PO Box is $10 (not sure if that was a one time charge or per month). They also have a manual car wash station, propane fill, and an unfenced dog walk area that is just dirt and no gravel, great for tiny dog feet! There is a dog run but it has gravel so best for larger dogs. They have some exercise equipment in the main hall along with a book collection, and stage.

The location, if you are looking for solitude you’re in the right place. There is nothing around for a 20 minute drive down the highway. Quartzite is there. Beyond that tiny desert town, you’re looking at 2.5 hours to Lake Havasu City or Phoenix. There is a Walmart in Parker but its shelves are usually bare from being the closest to Quartzite. Other than ATV trails and desert golf along with the activities mentioned above, that’s all there is. Most people come for the ATV trails. There is not much hiking as the gravel is deep and there isn’t much elevation. There was no mountain biking for us unless we drove to Lake Havasu City or Phoenix.

This campground is well worth the money and the campers here are extremely friendly. Overall, our experience was positive, just wish there were more activities that we were into. It made an excellent place to work since it was so quiet and the sites are a decent size as well. We recommend this campground.
