    Trash everywhere. Seriously overcrowded. This place is kind of like going to hang out at a landfill with a lake of sewage in the middle.

    Ask the Community - Lake Martinez Recreation Facility

    How is the cell phone coverage?

    Cell phone coverage at Lake Martinez is spotty. At this location at various locations you can get on average 4 bars of 3G service at best.

    Is there anywhere in the area that rents stand up paddle boards?

    Yes, we went stand up paddle boards at the recreational facility. Please contact us at 928.783.3422 for more information.… 

    Can I use my Pontoon boat here?

    Debbie, Yes you sure can. You will need to launch it from Fishers Landing or the near by BLM boat launch as our facility does not have one. We have docks that you can tie… 

    Are you allowed to go swimming here? If not, is there a lake near Yuma where you can?how much?

    Yes we have an on-site swimming location on the recreation facility. It’s a small beach. You will enjoy it.

    We had an amazing time kayaking with Leto's! The kayaks, paddles, and life jackets were all in…read moregreat condition, and the life jackets are cleaned and sanitized before every rental! When we arrived at Mittry Lake they were already there waiting for us and by the time we walked from the car to the ramp the kayaks were ready for us to hop in. This was the first time for a couple of us so it was really nice that Leto's made sure that we knew the basics and made sure to answer all of our questions before we took off. The lake is beautiful! Very peaceful and relaxing! It's really nice at the boat ramp, there is a huge covered picnic area with several tables and bbqs. The only thing I would change about our recent kayaking trip with Leto's is upping the 2 hour rental that we had and reserving them for longer! Such a great company and amazing experience. 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend!

    This place has a new owner and is now called 3:10 Kayak and Paddleboard Rentals. I highly recommend…read morerenting kayaks here. The kayaks were of excellent quality and much better than typical rentals. Owner Dale was also super helpful and accommodating for us. We had a super fun time kayaking at the south end of the Colorado River with lots of interesting channels making you feel like you were exploring the jungle of the Amazonas at times. This is the most fun place I think I have ever kayaked. If you want to have a great time kayaking, this is the place for sure and if you need to rent this is the place to get rentals.

    I love Walter's Camp and appreciate meeting Tabitha today. She's lovely and has a great authentic…read morequality about her. She is a graciously sincere kind person and will be very helpful to make sure her guests are well cared for. Thanks to her yet again for making our trip extra wonderful. It is a great place to launch watercraft and explore. Today on the river was beautiful and I can't wait for next time! Be sure to take the time to visit Walter's Camp and don't let the bumpy gravel road deter you! Say hi to Tabitha and check out the general store. It's well stocked for a small place. Thankful yet again!!

    Visited Walter's Camp on my first canoe camp trip on 3/13/25. I was pleased to see that it wasn't…read morebusy. Tabitha, the camp host helped me get set up and gave me the lay of the land. The general store has a few items, merchandise, and even a bar back that is used when the camp is in full swing after Memorial Day according to Tabitha. I chose a far site at the edge of the property underneath two tamarisk/salt cedar trees which was great for shade. I launched my canoe at the concrete boat ramp and paddled the old Colorado River channel right out in front of the camp which is not lacking in it's scenery of Cibola Natl Wildlife Refuge and the beautiful Trigo Mountains Wilderness viewable eastward. Nighttime is where things came alive! Dozens of braying burros, coyotes, and owls that would hoot up a storm in the trees above me. An a/c or refrigeration until by the general store ran in cycles all night and was about as annoying as someone running a generator. The facilities provided had showers and pit toilets, all in good condition. Taking a moment to stretch/yoga before the morning paddle in the communal hang out area in front of the general store was a great idea. I was greeted by an amazing SW sherbet sunrise over the calm waters of the inner channel of the Colorado, it was spectacular. I'm typically a dispersed camper, so some of my gripes about the noise you can probably take with a grain of salt. Would I stay the night again? Sure, but I'd prefer something a bit more isolated. Thank you Tabitha for all your advice on boating the river as a novice, appreciate what you do!
