What visitors say

The park report card

We don’t recycle other sites’ reviews, but the published scores are worth reading together. Google and Tripadvisor rate the whole park, not just the campground. Campers praise the lakefront sites, the sunsets, the clean, level sites and the friendly rangers, while weak, scalding showers, summer heat, boat noise on busy weekends and the $50 price pull some scores down.

Everything that decides whether Lake Havasu State Park fits your rig, your dates and your budget, in one place.

Questions to ask before you reserve.

Open

Lake Havasu State Park is the city’s public lakefront park, and its Windsor Beach campground puts you on the water in the middle of town. Sites have water and 50 amp power but no sewer, stays are capped at 14 nights, and weekends fill early in the warm months.

Best for

  • Boaters: three launch ramps are inside the park, and boat rentals are on site.
  • Campers who want the lake and the beach a few steps from the site, with big sunsets.
  • Short stays of a week or two close to the London Bridge, restaurants and shops.
  • Families and groups who want cabins and campsites side by side.

Consider this

  • There’s no sewer hookup; you’ll use the free dump station, which gets busy at checkout.
  • Stays are capped at 14 nights, with 2- and 3-night minimums on warm-season and holiday weekends.
  • Listings give a 35 ft maximum, though RVers report fitting 41 ft rigs.
  • Reviewers report weak, scalding showers, powerboat noise and summer highs above 110°.

Good to know before you pull in

Five things that change your booking

Ask these on the phone before you reserve.

  • Will my rig fit the site I’m booking? Check each site’s length in the reservation system, since the listed maximum is 35 ft.
  • Is a lakefront site open? They go first, so book up to a year ahead for winter and holidays.
  • Which rate applies? Standard sites are $50 a night; cabin-loop RV sites are listed at $40.
  • When can I arrive? Check-in is 2 p.m., and arriving before noon means paying the day-use fee.
  • What’s the cancellation policy? Read Arizona State Parks’ reservation terms; the $3.60 reservation fee isn’t refunded.
