This time of year approximately May 10th plenty of sites open you can stay two weeks. I'd advise strongly that you park at the entrance of Craggy Wash if you have a Class A motor home or 5th wheel then walk or bicycle in to see the 3 options of turn around points as they also double as camp sites. It is wise to then come in and point your rig facing the entry point as to be able to leave in a emergency.

Close to town and free, not many cactus but some are in bloom now. Very quiet at night. Too bad some trashy people leave garbage laying around

CRAGGY WASH BLM BOONDOCKING This free BLM camping area is just north of Lake Havasu airport. Road is a dusty washboard gravel, first 1 mile no camping, then a couple miles of free dispersed camping. Craggy Wash is a narrow draw and camps are clustered along the main gravel roads. Cell signal is dependent on where you camp, have to have line of sight to the cell tower across hwy 95, otherwise no cell signal. No water, no trash dumpsters, no toilets, no designated sites. BLM site host was onsite to monitor the 14d limit. Main negative is the significant trash that is scattered around in bushes, side cubbies etc...this place needs an organized cleanup with the BLM bringing in a big dumpster...imo

Love this place, awayfrom town and traffic. Crowded at the beginning but keep going a couple of miles and its worth the drive
