What guests say
The resort report card
Most of these reviews were written when the park was Crazy Horse Campgrounds, before the new operator took over in 2026; Google’s 14 reviews are under the new name. Guests loved the waterfront location, the beach sites and the boat launch, and complained about aging bathrooms, power and water problems, crowded holiday weekends, extra fees and refund disputes.

Walk or ride to the London Bridge and the Bridgewater Channel, then head north for the state park beaches. Route 66’s burro town is an easy day trip.

Oatman & its wild burros
A Route 66 mining town in the Black Mountains where wild burros wander down the main street. An easy day trip, best done in the tow car rather than the rig.

Before you book
Plan your stay
Everything that decides whether Red Rock Waterside fits your rig, your dates and your budget, in one place.
Our take: the Island’s best-located waterfront campground, just past the London Bridge, now run by a new operator that promises a cleanup. Until the upgrades show up in reviews, expect older facilities, no sewer at the sites and a strict no-refund policy.

Red Rock Waterside is the old Crazy Horse Campgrounds, 48 acres of state trust land on the Island that has been a campground since the 1950s. A new operator took over in 2026 and promises cleaner, better-managed grounds. The waterfront sites and boat launch are the draw; aging facilities and the lack of sewer hookups are the catch.
Best for
- Boaters: launching is free for overnight guests, and you can add a slip or mooring.
- Campers who want to be on the water, with waterside and VIP waterside sites on the shoreline.
- Groups with golf carts, side-by-sides or e-bikes, which are welcome with a permit.
- Anyone who wants the London Bridge and the Bridgewater Channel a few minutes away.
Consider this
- There’s no sewer at the sites, so you’ll use the dump stations or pay for the pump-out service.
- Rates aren’t posted, and every reservation is non-refundable; notice only earns a credit.
- Most reviews describe aging bathrooms and utilities from the Crazy Horse years.
- The operator changed in 2026, so details may shift, and the rules are enforced with a zero-tolerance policy.

Checked against redrockwaterside.com on October 5, 2026. The park changed operators in 2026, so rates, amenities and rules may still change; confirm with the office at (928) 227-5527. All reservations are non-refundable.
Good to know before you pull in
Five things that change your booking
Ask these on the phone before you reserve.
- What’s the rate for my dates and site type? Prices only show up on the booking page, so compare Standard, Premium and Waterside before you commit.
- How does the pump-out service work? Ask how often it comes and what it costs, since sites have no sewer.
- What if I have to cancel? You get a credit, not a refund, with 30 days’ notice for short stays or 90 days for stays of a month or more.
- Is a slip or mooring open? They’re a daily add-on at the front desk, so reserve early for holiday weekends.
- Is my old Crazy Horse reservation still good? Contact the new office with proof of payment and confirm it before you drive in.
