Coon Hollow Campground in CA -- Campground & RV Camping

Coon Hollow Campground is located in the lower Colorado Desert adjacent to a desert riparian wash populated by palo verde, smoke trees, mesquite, and ironwoods. The site sits along the historic Bradshaw Trail National Scenic Byway, providing access to four-wheel drive trails, gem collection areas, and historic mining routes, including the nearby Hauser Geode Beds and Opal Hill Fire Agate Mine.

Getting there: Turn south at the Wiley’s Well Road exit from Interstate Highway 10 located about 16 miles west of Blythe, California. Drive southward on Wiley’s Well Road 12.1 miles to reach the Coon Hollow Campground sign at 33°26.737' N and 114°53.696' W. Turn right and drive west 0.5 mile to the campsites. From I 10 the road is paved 2.9 miles to the Chuckawalla Valley and Ironwood State Prison where a small sign indicates camping ahead. The road from this point consists of graded dirt and unless it is raining, or it has rained recently, it should be passable for all types of vehicles. If the road has not been graded within the previous two or three weeks, though, it is likely to be seriously wash-boarded.
