Quartszite is crowded, very dusty and dirty with a lot of high winds ... You have grocery stores that are very limited with fairly high prices... Lots of homeless people living in Quartzsite... In the winter months. A lot of times the BML land used for free boondocking is pretty cluttered with trash... I've seen where people where pooping and trash bags in buckets then burying the bags...so you come in to camp, you will never know what's buried underneath you where you are camping...just the thought of camping on top of someones poop is enough to want to stay away from boondocking in Quartzsite....you do want to camp in Apache Junction, Arizona lots of winter visitors...are now going and camping along term in AJ ... Apache Junction, Arizona
Being a weekend warrior RV'r myself I never understood the witch hunt for cheap restaurants . Most of us like myself have "Kitchens" in our rig that includes refrigerators. I always opt to cook my own meals in my RV over dining out. Most my meals are high quality foods at under 8 dollars a serving sometimes only 4 dollars, such as hotdogs and hamburgers. And when the fish are biting the cost is ZERO !!
Apache Junction, Arizona is the place to come to in the winter for long term camping.... You're 10 miles from three large, lakes. Your just down the street from Chandler and Mesa... Two very large Cities.... Apache Junction or AJ as it is called....a lot of Western history in AJ... You have scenic hiking in the Superstition mountains...AJ is fairly close to Phoenix, Arizona...you can take road trips up north like to Show Low Arizona.... There's a fourth lake not too far from AJ called .. Saguaro Lake.
This year was my third year in Quartzsite. I would say my favorite for camping was Plamosa Road from 95 east, all the way to Bouse. All 14 day areas except for one or two locations. Beautiful terrain and at the end of Plamosa Road a RV park with recently renovated showers and laundry facilities. $5 showers.
"good internet" is subjective. During my 21 days there in January, I happened to be around many CZcamsrs. More important to them than other peeps. I was in the Q21 camp with Papa Drew and Traveling Robert. You are pretty spot on with this vid.
You can get a Long Term pass for Laposa for $180, no limit camping from Sept 15 to April 15 at any of the 4 LTVA (Long Term Visitor Area) through the BLM.
Yeah $180 month lot better than ,$1000 month at RV park. On my SS I cant aford that. Tribal camping sounds bitter, and if you buy a membership in a Gold clame stay on clame.
I staid there then at American Lakes, they had better restroom facilities there , and at the lake Showers WOW , thats refreshing.. Short trip to Yuma , and Los Algodonas Mexico, for Food and Shopping. Love the Open Air Markets.
Now this is a video I could use . My nomad camping is going to begin in March of 2024 . I’ve been looking into Quartzite as my winter retreat. I now have inside information on what to do there and to fill my supplies. One of the best videos I’ve seen on this place thank you .
Enjoyed your Quartzsite video and the reviews of the town. My wife and myself are "'Boondockers Welcome" hosts in Quartzsite. I really liked how your video is set on a positive note based on your recommendations and experiences. PS. Please consider visiting us while passing through Quartzsite. Would love to meet you guys and help you check out more of our quirky little town. Ed & Geri
Thank you. We went to the Gum Museum in town. So wish we had gone before we posted this vid. We love Quartzsite. We’ll definitely say hello next time we’re in town.
Don't sell .. youtubers in general make it glamorous... its not.... except for a few people. Rememberyoutubers make money selling the idea.. those who leave dont make videos..
@@johnwolf1475 so true , I’m going to go out for a month or more at a time, see what it’s really like , then maybe I’ll sell, I just want to travel before I get too old to do things
Take it easy on yourself. At first it will suck as you get used to the weird requirements of being on the road. It may take a year for you to get comfortable. Personally I can’t stand Quartzsite as it’s too much like the neighbors I left behind.
When I was a truck driver I drove by Quartzite once a week, now I in a rv and I'm going to go there for a couple of weeks, I'm going to try the $1.00 Bergers !! Great Video. Thanks
When I was there last month Billy’s Bar bought the Burger place (same location) so no more $1.00 Burgers. Owner said now with inflation there was no way he could keep them at that price. Still a great Burger 🍔- Scott
I loved my experience in Quartzsite. We camped with such a amazing group of people. Papa Drew and everyone. Everyone was very respectful Campers. And meeting you was awesome. Can't wait to see you both again out on the road. Full-time RVing has been a amazing experience so far. We have learned a lot so far.
Same here. We are back at LaPosa S where we learned today that too many people and not enough dumping capacity and water table is not refilling fast enough. Yikes!
Randy sold and retired. There is no more dollar burgers. Lyel and Marie have the best buskits and gavy before 11. They have the barbecue right by K&B tools by beer bellys. The best sit down breakfast is @ Quail Dinner on Moon MT Rd. 1 mile North of Main St. The best T Shirts are at my Booth where I screen print them in front of you that has my hand drawn collectable artwork!!!! Hint hint.
Best does not mean the best for your wallet. Quail run is nice but remember, "The more ammenitues, the higher the price". Most RVers like to explore Quartzite and spend their money in town and events. I staid at Hasslers in August snd La Posa West from September through April as it is close to the January events/venders.
@@ThisNomadicIdea lol bragger lol. We ran from the snow and ice in Texas. Just wanted to get back up to Indiana to take Miss Abby to her Vet for shots and everything and check on my 96 year old dad. But darn Indiana snow and ice. Lol
I have never been to Quartsight. All the videos are negative. Glad to hear a good one. I would still pondering on going there. We are not snowbirds and pass through parks to get to where we need to go.
An excellent video about Quartzsite camping ! You mentioned many things that no other CZcamsr mentioned about this "snowbird" community. I too have stayed in Quartzsite AZ for the last 3 years and have also done some CZcams videos about camping there. Best Wishes- Eagle Eric
While I appreciate your effort, every thing that you said that other channels don't tell you about the Quartzsite area, I've heard multiple times on other channels. Peace and love. 😎
James RV lifestyle is a great guy 2016 I’ve bent an axle kind of rate at Christmas time and he did his damnedest to get them there and I had Christmas with friends quartzite and went to imperial and then on January 2 James called me said the axles were in I went there he told me 8 o’clock in the morning I was at the gate at seven they let me in so it would probably be most of the day 1130 he called me said my trailer was ready they are great people
There's an RV parts place ( fairly priced but dusty place) just east on Kuehn st east of the Central Blvd intersection. Some new stuff and some used stuff. Also has older oddball stuff. Could be what you're looking for. It says RV parts and it's a plain looking building with lots inside.
They are permanently closed. Due to Rice Ranch being sold they lost their lease. Used to be called Gamblers. Then it was called RV Supply of Quartzsite.
Who's got money to eat out? Or pay 30 bucks a day to camp. Nothing about car or tent campers with no black tank. Groceries, cooking, eating at your camp.
I went to Quartzite a couple times and hung out near Guru Bob and the gang. It’s just a huge gravel parking lot down there. I’d rather camp in mountains with big trees like the Cascade Mountains near where I live. There’s usually no internet connection here though but in my opinion camping is better unplugged from internet and tv etc etc.
@@colorcreatively Most all rocks are Sandstone so they crush pretty well and normally don’t present a problem. The LTVA camping areas (Laposa South & North) have paved their entrance roads. It depends where you camp. It’s so heavily used that I’d you stay around the trafficked area’s, you’ll be fine.
You popped up on my youtube recommended screen. Glad it did. Excellent video. And you are correct, the other videos on Quartzite do not have this information. You mentioned the slow internet. Did it take you 24 hours or more to upload a 21 minute video?
Leave me out. I don't drink don't smoke. Don't have ATV. No motorcycle. Have food for 5 month. I will get the free water though and fuel at the pilot before heading to Yuma after RTR. I will need to find parking some where in Yuma area to camp. I figure i would check out Algadones, MX go in get a xray to see how they can do about my teeth. Than get an appoinmet to come back later in the year to start work on my teeth. I have minivan camper.find out about what i can do to make it more livable. Stick around the area until it get to hot for me and head up to grand canyon for 14 days than head to leadsville Co. Go hicking. At least that the plan for now. Its probably not going to be easy to meet Bob Wells since is going to be swamp already. I am really looking forward to this trip. It will be my first trip outside of Texas since 2008. I hope to make a few new friens. I am ciming excited and a positive attitued. Maybe we will cross paths? Who knows. See you down the road.
Cannot understand why people camp at Quartzite. No decent shopping there. I stayed in the Yuma area where there is a huge amount of shopping and different forms of activities.
Great info....I have been to Quartzsite twice before (last time 2010) but i was going with others who had been before. This time I am going in my new Class A RV after just retiring. This was a lot of good info. Thanks
Your information is very good 👍 I agree with you on the best pizza in the world, Al’s Pizza. You can get great advice from Lifestyle RV the service department is great. I did go to The Desert Bar outside of Parker, the drive-in was crazy, but worth it for sure. Very fun place! I love Quartzite.
@@edmor1086 oh nooooooooooooooooooo. i had no idea. do you know what happened? i haven't been through that area for over ten years approx. we'd stop by there before hitting lake havasu. i loved him and his wife. is she running the bookstore? i hope so.
Thanks for the positive review of Quartsite , businesses and surrounding areas. I want the BLM experience when I retire. Is it safe for a single female traveler? Do they have rules & monitors on site for ppl abusing the rules? I e Leaving trash around, do they have quiet time or is it a loud party all night, is there a corner spot just for ppl who want quiet? Do they limit how many campers can be on site or is it like a parking lot? heard they have mice problems. Where is the nearest pharmacy, medical center & hospital?
We have camped here several times, over a period of 6 years. Normally starting about the middle to late in February. We have not been there when the big tent show was going. We have found most of the other people camping near us to be respectful, not too noisy, and have always felt safe. For a single female traveler, I would just recommend that you not look for a place that is too far from other campers, or too isolated, and that you be open to greeting those around you. Most of the others will be be glad to keep an eye out for troublemakers. Common sense for you should be your guide. There are posted rules, but only some of the BLM sites have a camp host, and their hours are a little spotty. In some places, they do actively monitor people to make sure the rules are being followed. Try it, and we think you'll like it. Good luck.
This is an awesome review, and great insight of the area. Scott the Quail Run rate does charge $0.20/K.W extra for the electric for the monthly rate during January and $100 more for the weekly rate, so do you think that you would use say $400 more per month for the electric, bringing a monthly rate to $925. Our rig is not set up with solar although self contained. We haven't boondocked for any length of time, can you tell.
There’s actually lots of hiking and other stuff to do. LaPaz County has a desert golf course very close to Q. Bonfires, Live music. Up to you to create your lifestyle in the Q. Not to mention a ton of Vendors selling everything.

Hard to fish in the desert. But it is a lot cheaper for sure.
