About this property

Beautiful location on the Colorado river, enjoy sunsets, wildlife, desert trails and boating. A great destination for 'snow birds' that want to escape the cold. Enjoy the 'carnival' of Quartzite from January to March, balloons in February at Lake Havasu and trails, hiking and water the rest of the year. Average daily temperature during the day in winter is 75, and during the summer, you'll want to get your toys and jump in the 80 degree water. The property is secured with three cameras covering all external entrances to the property for your safety.

Great Water Front Location

We had a wonderful time at this lovely home. Great location for fishing & floating down river on tubes. Location is best for Jet Skies or Shallow V boats due to the daily fluctuating water levels you do not want to launch or keep anything else at the dock. We ended up taking our boat to the other side of the dam to Parker Strip one day and then to Lake Havasu another day. Home is also close to Casino if you like to gamble.

What a peaceful place w/ a water view

My husband & I were so fortunate to get to rent this place. There was plenty of space, all of the modern features one could need & a backyard on the river w/ Beautiful views. It was nice to have the AC to cool off in after a long day in the water. The kitchen is set up perfectly so cooking was easy. The hosts were super amazing & helpful. The neighbors were awesome. We can't wait to go back & enjoy it again.

Beautiful view of the river

Great location on the river. The Bluewater Lagoon community is mainly double wide trailers and some are very old. The house is very big and does have everything you need. The furniture is on the old and dated side but comfy. The furnace is not working so they provided plug in heaters. We had some very cool nights and early mornings during our stay.The one in the living room squeals so we moved the second one into that area to have two. We blew a breaker and the owner was very unhappy with us as he does not want you to move anything. There is a huge binder of things to do and not and apparently we missed the do not move the heaters. We needed it in the main living area not the bedroom. Towels and dish cloths could be replaced as somewhat musty. Having the use of the golf cart was great and the main bedroom bed is super comfortable. If you have a boat it would be super handy. Lots of seating outside.

Family Summer River Vacation 2021

Great private river access in gated community! Including dock, multiple levels for outdoor relaxing with amazing views and natural shade from two large trees right out your back door! So quiet and peaceful and practically had the river to ourselves. Sunrise and sunsets were breathtaking. House has open concept and everything you need to make you feel at home. Take the golf cart to the private beach area or neighborhood store for ice, drinks, snacks or other supplies conveniently a couple blocks away. BBQ if you like or head out to a variety of local restaurants in nearby downtown Parker. John and Lisa are GREAT hosts, responsive and accommodating, you won’t be disappointed! We were blessed to have this opportunity and plan to go back as soon as we can. Thank you for everything and sharing your home with our family!

John's place on the river

John's house is large, comfortable and spacious. It was spotless. We enjoyed cooking, relaxing and kicking back by the River. It is not easy to find the first time as there are two "Riverfront," streets in the area.
