Lake Hasasu State Park

We moved onto Lake Havasu State Park where we will stay for 4 days before heading to So Cal for the Holidays. We have a great site right on the water. This is a beautiful campground, no hookups but only $18 a night and large sites with most having at least some views of the water. Also a walk or bike ride away from the London Bridge area of the city.

There aren't a lot of people here now and so another quiet and relaxing place to spend some time. Unfortunately we didn't have the best of weather. 48 hours of never ending wind. I rather have rain than wind. Of course we got some of that as well. At least we have wonderful views out almost all of our windows. They have a real nice 1 1/2 walk that goes along the water and through groves of trees. It also goes through a nice cactus garden.

This area is known for having lots to do, such as boating and riding atvs through the desert. However, the following picture I took while sitting outside reading on one of our nice days, was another interesting way to see the sights

Well, another great place that we would like to come back to and spend more time, hopefully with a little warmer weather.

                                                                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                           

Cattail Cove State Park, Lake Havasu

Boy, were the racers lucky. The weather had been nice on the days of the races. However, Sunday was really windy. So much so, that they probably wouldn't have been able to race. We stayed another day and left for Cattail Cove State Park on Monday. The park is right on the Colorado River between Parker and Lake Havasu. We were able to get a spot pretty close to the water for a nice view. We will be staying here until Friday when we will head back to California.

                                                                     

This is definitely a place we would come back to to stay this winter for a few weeks. A nice combination of water and desert. Places to hike and to kayak as well. We went into Lake Havasu, about 15 miles away for shopping and  some lunch and to just check out the area several days while we were here.
