Stayed at BlueWater Resort in Parker, Arizona for the Quartzsite RV Show since nearby hotels were…read morefully booked. It's about a 45-minute drive to the show, which was manageable. My room had a beautiful view of the Colorado River, complete with a full patio and seating--such a nice bonus. The room itself was big, spacious, and very comfortable. Coffee and tea were provided, and housekeeping cleaned the room daily, which was fantastic. Service throughout the hotel was excellent. A couple of things to note: there is no Wi-Fi in the rooms--only available in the lobby--and the pool was closed for remodeling during my stay. There is a small but cozy exercise room, and parking was plentiful. Dining options were great. BlueWater Grill is perfect for casual snacks and breakfast (opens at 7am), while River Willow has a more upscale feel and is excellent for dinner with friends or family. Overall, a great stay with excellent service, plenty of parking, and even free RV parking that can accommodate large rigs. Cheers!

Our Japanese relatives both the first generation or Issei (grandparents) & second generation Nisei (my mom & her siblings) were incarcerated in Posten AZ along w/almost 18,000 other Japanese for no other reason than being Japanese. Under Executive order 9066 approximately 120,000 Japanese Americans were incarcerated in 10 major camps. Since all the Nisei & Issei generation have passed away my cousin organized a Pilgrimage to Posten where they were incarcerated. We had an excellent excellent turn out for the sansei or 3rd generation Japanese/Anericans w/myself my wife & all 4 of my siblings, cousin that organized the trip/reunion had 4 of 5 turnout, my other cousin had 4 of 4, & the last family group had 3 of 3). In addition many of the Yonsei (fourth generation) turned out for this event. In all there were 39 of us that turned out to learn about what our ancestors went through during World War II. I've always been aware of the camps but to see & to learn so much more that by attending this event was awesome. This coupled with/a family reunion was something that was really special event because we haven't seen each other in 20 years ever since the nisei generation passed away. Bluewater Casino has a large meeting/conference room where they had exhibits set up of items. The internment camp in Posten AZ is in the dessert on Indian land. This area around Parker AZ is also home to four Indian tribes. They are the Mohave, Chemehuevi, Hopi, and Navajo. These tribes are federally recognized as the Colorado River Indian Tribes (CRIT) and share the Colorado River Indian Reservation, which is primarily located in Parker, Arizona. The four Indian tribes in Parker, Arizona, are the Mohave, Chemehuevi, Hopi, and Navajo. Both the Japanese & Indians had put into situations that were not of their choosing but being resourceful they were able to exist w/mutually beneficial interaction and interdependence that strengthens society as a whole.

The view wasn't exactly postcard-worthy unless dirt lots are your thing but we weren't there for the scenery. We just needed a comfortable place to accommodate our overflow crew, and it did the job well. The facility was clean, the AC blew wonderfully cold (a must in Arizona), and the pillows were comfortable enough to earn a good night's sleep. The continental breakfast was surprisingly decent and gave us a solid start to the day. While this isn't a five-star resort, it provided all the amenities we needed without any fuss. Sometimes that's exactly what you're looking for, and this place delivered.

The places to eat are also super close by and the Safeway and Walmart are legit 15 min away to stock up all your needs. They sell ice also $7 for a 16 lbs bag at roadrunners incase you need to stock up on ice. The place is chill and the people are also chill. You will ofcourse run into some people who have 0 River etiquette and are rude for no reason but most people are chill and respectful. You can leave your skeleton up for your eazy up as well and no one will mess with it so we loved that. Def a place for River vibes ! Will be back soon!

Minus one star for the following: 1) Pool was not working when I came, it had been drained. That's fine but I was looking forward to a quick swim since they'd advertised a pool. But this wasn't 'terrible' and I quickly got over it. 2) When I showed up around 8pm there was no one in the office and a sign on the door saying no vacancy. But I had a reservation?! I called the number on the door (which phones the empty room that I was staring at). Absolutely no one was there. It took a good 45-minutes for someone to show up. When the young lady did show up she said she'd needed to go to the bathroom. But it was a scary wait not knowing if anyone would show up! 3) Next morning I couldn't get the internet to work so I decided to go to the front office. No one was there. Waited 10 minutes then left. 4) After an outing in town, my key wouldn't work. Went to the front office and again had to wait for about 30 minutes (this time with an older couple having the same key issues) for someone to show up. The front office needs to be constantly staffed. It is a huge error to have customers sitting around just waiting for someone. I've never had this issue anywhere else and I have to say, it was not pleasant having to wait for someone. Staff is VERY friendly once they get there. Would go back again, hoping that they've fixed the staffing issues.
