Seeking Arizona River Parks!

Anyone have any experience with river parks near Blythe, Parker, Havasu or even farther north in AZ but got to be near the water?
I have checked Good Sams and other forums and have yet to find a comprehensive guide for this area in AZ? The parks I have found that I like are in the 300 to 500 a month range for my TC with one person and a dog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

    Buckskin Mtn is our favorite but Cattail Cove SP up the road a few miles very nice as well. It is a little smaller as are the sites it is also cheaper with a nice beach.

    At $500 for a month on the water do not think your going to find that IMHO. Maybe a straight boondock site but still don't think so. Buckskin State Park is our favorite and is on the River with electric and water at $30 a night

    The two state parks between Parker and Havasu City are both very nice and on the water. We have stayed at Buckskin Mountain Park and found it very amenable.
    Davis Dam Park in Bulhead City is okay and some sites are on the water, but you'd want to reserve a site if you want a waterfront site.
