Lakes, Rivers, and Coastlines Around Phoenix

When you think of the desert southwest, lakes and rivers are probably not the first things to come to mind. However, this state has lakes and rivers that range from deep reservoirs to glistening high-altitude lakes. 

From Phoenix, you can access Lake Pleasant, a popular desert oasis with miles of shoreline just 45 minutes from downtown. Continue away from the city and dive into the turquoise waters of Lake Mead, a striking sight against an arid desert backdrop. Straddle the Utah-Arizona border with a dip into Lake Powell or skip rocks into Nevada from the shores of Lake Mohave. 

For the ambitious traveler, Phoenix is a great starting point to head toward California's coast. Find curious sea creatures in the rocky tide pools or dig your toes into the golden sand on any of California's beautiful beaches.

Campgrounds Around Phoenix

Finding a campground near you will be a breeze whichever way you drive your campervan or motorhome from Phoenix. Secure a lakefront campsite in Roadrunner Campground or Desert Tortoise Campground at Lake Pleasant or start your desert adventure among the saguaro cactus at Usery Mountain County Park Campground. 

Along your journey, you’ll find that campervan and motorhome accommodating sites are available at all surrounding National parks with the exception of Petrified Forest National Park. Additionally, be sure to check out Bullfrog Basin Campground on Lake Powell for panoramic views and easy access to the water. 

No matter what season you’re traveling, it is always a good idea to make reservations at campsites that allow it. Popular campsites, especially those within the national parks, can fill up months in advance. For places that operate on a first-come, first serve basis, we recommend arriving early and planning your stays on weekdays when the sites are less likely to be full from weekend travelers.
