17645 Hwy. 160, Rio Vista, CA 94571
Organizing a group trip for paddlers or anglers in fall, when temperatures drop to the mid-60s-80s, crowds thin, and migratory waterfowl peak. Sites handle RVs up to 36 feet, flush toilets and showers are on-site, and Rio Vista is 3 miles away for resupply.
Cell coverage is unreliable and there are no hot showers, just cold ones. The accessible fishing pier is currently closed from fire damage, and a harmful algae bloom advisory is active, so water contact for swimmers and pets carries real risk right now.
Context for the broader area surrounding Sacramento Group Campground, sourced from the federal Recreation.gov rec-area record.
This 42-mile stretch of two-lane blacktop is one of the last and best-preserved segments of the original Route 66, one of America's first transcontinental highways. This portion of the highway once included one of the most fearsome obstacles for "flatland" travelers in the 1930's: the hairpin curves and steep grades of Sitgreaves Pass, which characterize Old Route 66 as it makes its way over the Black Mountains of western Arizona.
The Historic Route 66 National Back Country Byway begins five miles south of Kingman at the McConnico exit off Interstate 40. To begin at the southern end, exit off Interstate 40 at the Topock/Golden Shores. Switchbacks access Oatman and the mining community of Goldroad.

Fall delivers the best conditions, with temperatures typically running mid-60s to mid-80s°F from September through November. Summer heats up to 75-95°F, occasionally pushing past 100°F, though Delta breezes provide some relief. Winter stays mild at 45-55°F. Fall brings lower crowds than summer weekends, clearer water for paddling, and active bird migration. Weekday visits in fall see the lightest traffic.
Fall gives best conditions (mid‑60s to mid‑80s°F) and is highlighted as ideal season.
