Crazy Horse Campgrounds
Overview
Crazy Horse Campgrounds has been a cornerstone of the Lake Havasu RV community since the 1960s. This expansive park offers a vintage charm combined with one of the most sought-after locations in the region. Known for its extensive waterfront access, the campground provides a social, resort-like atmosphere where travelers often return year after year. It is a place where the desert meets the water, offering a relaxed environment for both long-term residents and weekend explorers seeking a community-oriented experience.
Location & Surroundings
You will find this park situated directly on The Island, which is accessible via the historic London Bridge. This unique positioning means the campground is surrounded by the sparkling waters of Lake Havasu on several sides. The terrain is typical of the Arizona desert—sandy and sun-drenched—but it is elevated by the immediate proximity to the shoreline. Guests enjoy panoramic views of the water and the rugged mountains that frame the horizon, making it a prime spot for sunset watching.
Amenities & Park Features
The facility is well-equipped to handle various RV sizes, offering full hookup sites that cater to both 30 and 50-amp needs. The standout feature is undoubtedly the private beachfront access, providing easy entry for swimming and sunbathing. For those bringing watercraft, the park includes convenient boat ramps and slips for easy lake entry. Additional on-site comforts include:
- A sparkling swimming pool for cooling off
- Clean restrooms and laundry facilities
- An on-site general store for supplies
- A designated dog park for pet travelers
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Because of its central location, visitors are just minutes away from the London Bridge, where you can explore local shops, restaurants, and waterfront tours. The lake itself is a playground for boating, jet skiing, and fishing for bass. If you prefer land-based activities, the area is famous for its off-roading trails and hiking opportunities at SARA Park. Golf enthusiasts will also find several courses nearby that offer challenging play with beautiful desert backdrops.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is an ideal match for active families and boaters who want to be in the center of the Lake Havasu action. If your travel style involves spending as much time on the water as possible, the direct lake access and boat ramps are major advantages. It is also a great fit for social travelers who enjoy a bustling resort environment. While it offers tranquility during the off-season, it is best suited for those who appreciate a lively vacation during the peak summer and winter months.

Our stay ended in a very unfortunate and unnecessary situation. At check-in, the electrical pedestal at our assigned site was not functioning. We reported it immediately and were instructed by staff to temporarily use the power from the empty neighboring site until repairs were made. The following day, another staff member confirmed our pedestal was still not working and again directed us to continue using the adjacent outlet. On February 12, while we were packing up in preparation to depart on February 13 as scheduled, the campground manager approached our site, shut off our power, and accused us of stealing electricity from the neighboring site. We immediately explained that we were following the instructions given to us by two separate staff members. The manager explained she did not care what her staff directed us to do. Despite that explanation — and despite staff confirming they had directed us to use that outlet — law enforcement was contacted and we were required to vacate the property within 30 minutes. Emotions did rise during the interaction, which I acknowledge. However, from our perspective, we were following direct guidance from campground employees regarding a non-functioning utility at our assigned site. We were not refunded for the remaining unused nights after being required to leave. This situation appeared to stem from internal communication failures regarding site utilities and staff direction. We encourage future guests to verify utility functionality and document any instructions provided to avoid similar issues. We will never return to lake Havasu city again. No matter what they respond with to this review!

This place is a joke. Lady front desk rude. Gal at front entrance rude. Ask me a million questions to get a spot to charge for the night only to deny me bc of my dogs. They are mix breed dogs look like Shepards and not allowed. Firstly, any campground with restrictions on dogs sucks. Dogs are safer than humans. 👎🏽

Our site was very large, right on the lake with a beautiful view. We had power and water, but no sewer (but we knew that and that's only for the lakeview spots). The roads around the park were VERY poorly maintained, though: big potholes, unclear directions, and no road names. The staff was incredibly friendly.

Never paid $80 to stay in a campground with no hot water in the showers, no hook or anything for a towel or your clothes, and if the floor has been cleaned in a week I’d be shocked. 9 broken machines in laundry room should have been my first clue. One of the sinks in the ladies’ bathroom is so broken the water just runs through the pipes on the floor. We are staying in I-7 for one more night and wish we weren’t.

We really enjoyed our stay at Crazy Horse Campground. The place was very nice, and everyone we met was friendly and welcoming. The bathrooms were kept very clean, which we really appreciated. The location was also great — close to everything and all the events going on in town. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we truly loved staying there. The only downsides were that it was very hard to get ahold of someone when trying to make a reservation, and the stickers they place on the vehicle and trailer were extremely difficult to remove. Other than that, everything was great, and we would definitely stay here again.

Nice place to camp, has river front spots with electricity for your RV and table to eat comfortable. Lake Havasu in particular is very HOT, 39 to 43 degrees even at night but good place overall.

I come here once every year for a family reunion that's been happening for more than almost 50 years it's so beautiful you can get so many beautiful pics of the sunsets and sunrises. I love these campgrounds they are very nice and there is enough room for activities like we do a parade every year and it's a blast!!

Really wanted to give this place the benefit of the doubt but it was not a great experience. Rented one of their park cabins/trailers and they changed the one we originally reserved without warning or notice. Not a big deal except the unit we were in had a TERRIBLE sewer smell when we arrived. Thought it might have been dried out drains. Woke up first morning it was gone but still went to the office to alert them. Also our unit was missing the fire extinguisher that was obviously missing from the side of a cabinet. By the end of our first full day the smell was back, by that time the office was closed. Went to main gate and without me telling them which unit we were in, they knew exactly where we were staying. Ongoing issue that no one seems to know the cause and instead of investigating it further they continue to book people in it and don't care. Told us they don't know where the smell is coming from so they can't just call someone out for a smell. Shows how much they care. It is very clearly an issue with the AC unit. We went through a entire bottle of Febreze, that we purchased in the 3 days we were there to help. Couple of the windows had no windows coverings. Slider had mismatched vertical blinds that have seen better days and multiple fell the first time we entered. Raised issue to maintenence guy who was apologetic and reported to the front office only to come back and tell us that they needed to get approval to replace. Never heard a peep again. We also asked about renting a slip while we were there but told no those were for different reservation types. Guess what. Most slips were empty our entire stay. I'm glad they didnt get more of our money but they absolutely could have. 2 stars given because of the nice workers we did encounter who were powerless to do anything for us.

The roads have giant potholes looks like no maintenance is ever done to provide a good experience for customers. The people work there live in the trailer park and try to dictate what happens around the park! Highly recommend going somewhere nicer for the money!

Rick, the superstar at the front gate saved a man’s life on Monday, May 12, 2025. My wife witnessed a man riding a JetSki collide with a rogue wave. His JetSki slammed against him, and the launch threw him over 6 feet straight up. In the main lake, probably 200 yards offshore, he screamed in pain. Now others in the campground heard him. He went under and came back up. He went down again. My wife, watching from her G 37, burned rubber from J Row all the way up to the front gate where she called 911 and excitedly told Rick. Rick blasted a quarter mile in 10 seconds from the gate to his boat down in the cove and shot out into the main lake to save the man. Rick was the first on the scene and he pulled the man out of the water. Other people pitched in too, like the lady on a kayak who paddled like an Olympian to get out there. This is about Rick. He’s like other people who work at Crazyhorse. Good attitude. Great, life saving attitude. The facility is old and could use about $10 mil in improvements, it’s the character of the people who work there keep us coming back as your favorite camper.
