Planning a trip with some Doo's and maybe a jet or 2. 1) Where are the good places to stay for both hotels and camping? 2) What is the name of the place you see crossing on I 10? 3) What is the water temp? 4) Is Parker where the closest casino's are?
Thanks

A campground you may be thinking of is Rivera or McIntyre? I dont' remember which one... try this:

And I think Parker is the closest Casino. Water temp should be real nice right now.
Hotels
1. Hampton Inn in Blythe is a nice place.
We have driven down the main street and just stopped and got a hotel a couple of times with good results. I have never seen the town full.
Launch at Macintire Park
McIntyre is good, No dogs and gas is $3.59 at the pump. They cant sell beer either so bring your own. Riviera by the freeway has been bought out and they have nightly rentals facing their lagoon. I think theyre 1 bedroom mobiles. McIntyre also has a double wide for rent with several rooms. Call for a cost (760) 922-8205
Isn't there still a KOA on the right hand side when heading East on I-10....it's been awhile since I've been out that way. Spent 10 years as a young kid in the town (Ehrenberg) across from Blythe.
Man... I sure do like that Avatar, Bryan....

1. Get off the 10 at Lovekin. There is a Motel 6 just south of the fwy that isnt bad. Or go north on Lovekin then turn either way on hobson and there are a few decent motels. Camping: Mcintyre park is about 10 miles south of the 10 on Intake Blvd. Riviera is right at the 10 fwy. Mayflower is about 7 miles north of the fwy, take Intake to 6th Ave and turn right, then left when it dead ends. I would choose Mc or Mayflower for camping and launch.
2. Riviera.
3. Warm.
4. I think so. Or Cathedral City. Zero night life in Blythe, unless drinkin' beer in a parking lot is night life.
Blythe sucks
There is a bar in town called the Horny Toad Saloon for Blythe, this is as good as it gets unless you really want to let loose and hit up the bowling alley

The KOA is in Ehrenberg, along with a couple other riverfront campgrounds.
And yes, Parker is the closest Casino.

So how's the boat running....I sure do miss it?
Haven't got around to changing my avatar as I can't up load any pic's of my new boat because I can't find the UBS cable for my camera.
