Stories from the community

1 night at River Sands RV Resort

I stayed here twice in one month. The first thing I noticed was the courteous and helpful staff. There are long & wide pull-thru spots. The showers and laundry facilities are excellent. Groceries and the Colorado River are within walking distance—overall, it was most enjoyable!

1 night at Steve&Dawn's Desert Retreat

This was our second stay on Steve’s land, and it was just as great as before. The property is peaceful, quiet, and feels safe and secure. Having a dump site and potable water on-site is a huge plus. Highly recommend!

1 night at Coyote Pass RV Park

The space was great and our host was helpful. Thank you for the stay!

1 night at Steve&Dawn's Desert Retreat

Steve greeted us when we got there and the camp spot is clean and quiet. We had a great night's rest since its away from the freeway and there are not a lot of people or vehicles around. We ended up coming back for a second visit 2 weeks later.

Weekend Trip to River Sands RV Resort

We had just a towed camper and a quick night, and we're very glad with the stay. All the facilities were clean and seemed very new. We enjoyed the sparkling pool and the proximity to the river to go play, plus the playground was a nice touch. I guess for being there less than 24h we really used it well!

Weekend Trip to River Sands RV Resort

This is a really straightforward place with some fun amenities. We stayed in our 40-foot Fifth wheel in a Sunrise pull-through space 1235 and really enjoyed it! The laundry facilities were remarkably clean and the staff was SUPER helpful. They have daily events and mixers going on. It was quiet and peaceful. There were no large trees as of March 2025, so you are just side-by-side with your neighbors and the elements. Most of the ground is gravel or caliche, so there is some dust during windy times. We got some wind, but the dust did not prove to create a problem for us. Will definitely be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Coyote Pass RV Park

Easy to find and close to the interstate but couldn’t hear it. Good services and no issues

Weekend Trip to Havasu Getaways (Parker, AZ)

Very clean and organized space! Wayne responds very quickly to questions and is very helpful!

4 nights at River Sands RV Resort

We definitely would recommend River Sands Resort. It offered very spacious sites, beautiful views and numerous amenities. The park staff was friendly and accomediating. The park is dog friendly with Multiple dog potty sites and a beach ready for them to play and swim. We will be returning for a visit with friends soon.

12 nights at River Sands RV Resort

This rv park is soo Perfect. Spacious, quiet, accommodating. We stayed 2 weeks and enjoyed every minute of it.

Weekend Trip to Coyote Pass RV Park

Straightforward stay, needed to charge up our batteries. Felt like we had enough space!

2 nights at Cherry Oasis Desert Retreat

Myself, my husband and our 3 dogs enjoyed a mini vacation at Sarah's property. The area was very quiet and private. Our dogs loved having the whole fenced property to explore off leash. There were many SXS trails right outside the property. The hookups were handy. Tim communicated with us before we arrived and then met us there to show us where things were located, answer any questions and see that we got settled. We look forward to returning for another stay.

7 nights at River Sands RV Resort

Good camp. It's kind of a parking lot with a view but it's clean and has whatever you might need. I think for the price it's a good place to camp a few nights. They do have a "beach" front along the Colorado which I loved walking with my dog. They could use more washers/dryers. I would recommend for sure.

1 night at Coyote Pass RV Park

We had a peaceful stay at this campground. Fonctional FHU, quiet place and there's a lot of cute details in the park. Riley is super nice and will answer to your question immediatly on the app which I found very helpful.

6 nights at River Sands RV Resort

Beautiful and clean rv resort. Amenities....pool and laundry super clean. Pull through had plenty of space. Wifi on site was convenient. Beach access right on Colorado River with amazing sunsets. Nice convenient store with ice, ect. Only downside for me was that Wifi wasn't strong enough to hold zoom calls for work but you could do anything else. I have starlink so no worries was just hoping for a week I didn't need it. Otherwise amazing Spot and would absolutely come again!

7 nights at River Sands RV Resort

This is a great rv park to stay at. It’s got all the hookups and amenities you could want. I loved that it was so spread out, I felt like I had lots of room to set up camp. There was also a good amount of space between myself and other guests. They’ve got a lot of great info on their website, I’d recommend checking it out first.

2 nights at River Sands RV Resort

The amenities are amazing! I highly recommend River Sands for a quick stopover and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay for a season to take advantage of the club house, swimming pool, and pickleball courts!

Weekend Trip to River Sands RV Resort

Our requirements for our quick one night stay in our RV were: close (but not too close) to the highway, hot tub, full hookups. We were upgraded to a nicer spot near the pool and river. Our expectations were exceeded, and we will be back. Very nice clubhouse, kind staff, river access and large sites.
