Mohave County, Arizona · near Temple Bar Marina · APN 342-07-103: Build Your Lake Mead Base Camp on Your Own Terms

O'Connell Road, Temple Bar Marina, AZ 86443

You have launched your boat on Lake Mead more times than you can count, always from somebody else's ramp, never from a spot that was yours. This 1.18-acre lot sits in the high desert near Temple Bar Marina, open ground with distant mountains and enough quiet to hear yourself think. No HOA, no grid to hook into, just room to camp now and build a small off-grid place when you are ready. The Arizona side of Lake Mead has been waiting on you.

A Spot of Your Own on the Arizona Side of Lake Mead

For years you have driven out to Lake Mead, paid the day-use fee, launched the boat, and driven home again, always a visitor and never an owner. That gets old. There is another way to do it, and it starts with a patch of high desert that answers to you and nobody else.

Picture the boat hitched to the truck, the cooler packed, and a place of your own to point it toward. You spend the day on the water at Temple Bar, then come back to open ground where you can pitch a tent, sit out under the stars, and plan the little off-grid cabin you have been sketching on napkins for a decade. Boater, camper, desert stargazer, guy whose garage can't hold one more kayak? This is the kind of ground that fits you.

You are in the Meadview and Temple Bar country on the Arizona side, high desert near thirty-six hundred feet with mountains standing off in the distance. Here is a thing worth knowing: Lake Mead is the largest reservoir in the country by capacity, all of it backed up behind Hoover Dam. That is a lot of water to build a weekend around.

No, there is no city water or power line waiting at the lot, and the last stretch in is dirt that likes a high-clearance truck. That is exactly why it stays quiet, and why it is priced for a working family instead of a lakefront crowd.

Some folks spend their whole lives visiting the places they love. Out here you can finally own the ground you keep coming back to.

  • Boat, fish, and camp on Lake Mead near Temple Bar Marina
  • No HOA and no build clock, so you set the pace
  • Go fully off-grid with solar, a well or cistern, and septic
  • Buildable with a permit: house, cabin, modular, or tiny home
  • About 1.5 to 2 hours to Kingman or Las Vegas, drive-time estimate
  • Run big-box supply trips to Kingman or Las Vegas
  • High desert quiet near 3,600 feet with distant mountain views
  • Out of the floodplain in FEMA Zone X, off O'Connell Road

What’s allowed, and what it’s for

This one is a base camp first.

This one earns its keep as a recreation base near Lake Mead. Spend your days boating and fishing out of Temple Bar, then come back to open high desert where recreational camping is welcome and the stars put on a show. When you are ready for something more permanent, the lot is buildable with a county permit, so a small off-grid cabin can turn your weekend spot into a proper home base. Full-time RV living is not allowed here, so plan on camping recreationally until you build.

A plain-language summary of how Mohave County's Residential Recreation zone reads, current to October 2026. It is not a determination of what you may do here, and it is not legal or land-use advice.

Camping and RV use are welcome, up to 21 days per stay, twice a year. Longer stays need a county permit.

Best as a Lake Mead base camp you can camp on now and build on later.
Off-grid friendly, no HOA, and close to Temple Bar Marina on the Arizona side.
