Our stay at Dan’s place in Lake Havasu City was nothing short of amazing. Truly! This was our first Hipcamp experience, and wow — the bar has been set so high. The location was peaceful and scenic, felt very private, and it was located just a short walk to Castle Rock Bay where our Florida dogs had a blast splashed and played in the water together.
Dan was a b*tchin' host too! He was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the area’s land and wildlife. We even went on a rock-hunting adventure through the refuge together at sunrise — such a truly unique and special experience!
The sunsets were absolutely breathtaking, and the entire experience felt safe, beautiful, and welcoming. We only stayed two nights, but honestly, we could have stayed a month. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a genuine, nature-filled Arizona stay! 🌵✨

Camping at Dan's place was as expected. It's a pretty simple lot where you can pull in, set up, and stay a night or however long will little to no work. It was a level spot and had electric hookups. There was a fire pit and picnic table too. I'd stay there again if I was passing through like we were on this trip.

I think the best thing to say is, "this the only place we'll stay in Havasu." From Dan the host, the camp site and the location it can not be beat. Thank you Dan for a wonderful stay.

Wow! What a beautiful area to explore! And Dan, such a perfect host. He’ll respect your privacy if that’s all you want, but if you ask or inquiry I’m certain he’ll be happy to take you kayaking/paddle boarding in the nearby Lake Havasu, which is very cool! We trekked through sea caves and saw a baby owl in the big cliffs bordering the river, and had a couple beers and good conversation with Dan while bass were jumping all around us.. Also if you are into rock collecting, which, prior to our stay I was not.. this is place is rock heaven.. Seriously, Dan will tell you all about it! Phenomenal stay, will likely return when life permits. Cheers, Dan!

I highly recommend Desert Edge! Dan was a great host, who went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable....we enjoyed paddling with him and socializing after. Can't wait to come back and enjoy even more!

It was exactly what we needed. Our stay was perfect. Plenty of room for our motorhome towing our bronco! Lots of places to go off roading near by. Very quiet and peaceful. I would definitely recommend! Our host Dan was great.

We arrived to a wonderful view of the perimeter mountains, desert scape and a friendly, helpful host. Dan gave us information about what trails to walk, with good knowledge of the area. We had the site to ourselves with a feeling of peace and security. The location is close to shopping, the lake and the city, with a feeling of rural life. The first night we witnessed what we thought to be a UFO, later finding out it was a rocket launch. Soo AWSOME. Thanks Dan for a perfect place to stay the week.

Dan was a great host and I was able to go for a hike out in the desert with him and his friend Roy. The site is very secluded with good views.

This was our first Hipcamp sight and we loved it! Dan was helpful before we arrived and while we were there. The site felt private and was quiet except for the neighbors chickens. But we enjoyed them.
Will definitely stay again!
