Havasu Falls RV Resort
Lake Havasu City, AZ
The winds died down (they never stop out here) and we took the opportunity to head on toward Lake Havasu. I had an argument with our Garmin RV GPS because it wanted me to take CA 95 north to Needles and then over to Havasu. After some research, I decided it was better to take AZ 95 from Quartzite. My route was 97 miles, the GPS route was 134, so it wasn't much of an argument. Since it is an RV GPS I debated whether it knew something I didn't..... turns out it didn't ;>). We pretty much followed the Colorado River north and it was a nice (and scenic) drive.
Havasu Falls is a very nice resort with nice roads, concrete sites, pool, clubhouse, etc.
We have a nice pull thru with a picnic table... but we are fairly close to neighbors.
Down the street you see the mountains in the distance (the lake is in that valley).
We are right across the street from the pool/clubhouse...
Up the street... not much for shade or trees so we're glad it's still spring...
Here is a view of the lake from the end of the street inside the RV park....
We took a quick drive around town and saw a few of the sites..
Driving across the bridge (notice the street lamps).
The bridge takes you out to an upscale section of town known as the Island. Here are some shots from the beach area.....
We had considered staying at The Islander RV Resort in this area but decided it was too pricey at $75-$80 per night. We drove into the park for grins and here are a few shots..
Some sites back to the water....
Not bad....I think of it as an upscale Caney Creek (where we lived in TN)....
Anyhow, we're here in Havasu and will be staying put for almost a month...plenty of time to really explore this part of the country.
