Welcome to Zuni VillageRV Park

Located on Historic Route 66 and originally settled along the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, Kingman was founded in 1882. When gold was discovered in 1900, this northwest Arizona town became Mojave County¹s mining center. The construction of the Hoover Dam (previously called Boulder Dam) during the Great Depression provided a further impetus for growth. Today Kingman has a population of 40,000 people and continues to expand.

 

Kingman has many recreational opportunities for vacationers who love to be outdoors. With a 3,400-ft elevation, the town has a mild climate year round and countless breathtaking views.
