What makes people think RV parks are where you want to take an RV? Must be the name.

Campground areas is where you go. Federally owned land. BLM areas.

I knew Black Lives Matter were expanding their scope, but now they have 'areas'?





(Unless you meant Bureau of Land Management instead....) I'm betting more Americans would identify BLM with Black Lives Matter than Bureau of Land management...

Living in Nevada I heard about Bureau of Land Management often enough. Didn't even notice the relation to the other BLM.

Just park on the street.

I am not sure Quartzite is any better than a RV park and it is mostly BLM land. For those of you who don't get the reference Quartzite, AZ is a small town of a couple of thousand that sees 2 million visitors and RV'ers camped for miles around the town in middle of the desert. Some of them stay there for most of the winter it is an absolute gong show and the rock hounding capital of N. America if not the world.

Did you enjoy your time in Quartzite? You've probably stopped here in Havasu and went to the block size flea market held on Sundays during the winter, until yesterday then?

I've only stopped in QZ for a couple different days, coming from Ak. I enjoyed the selection and the browsing.

Not a place for city folk.

For my tastes, a person should be able to look out their window and not be able to see their neighbors place. But I'm fine with "each to their own".

Well, if you're pointing out what used to be great spots are often ruined by their popularity, unfortunately that's probably true. But regular RV parks aren't often that cheap anymore and they're as likely as the airlines to start packing trailers in for optimum return.

One of my kids just moved into his RV on the Homer [ Ak.] spit for the summer. He said the park is keeping every other space vacant. https://www.homerspitcampground.com/
