Accessible by paved road at the junction of two routes, The Y Dispersed Campsite operates as a free Bureau of Land Management site just outside Oatman. This roadside location functions essentially as a parking area where RVs and vehicles can overnight, with traffic passing on both sides though reviewers note nights remain relatively quiet.
Wild burros frequent the area, often approaching campers for food and standing in roadways. Coyotes also move through the site, particularly at night. Some vehicles use the area as a shortcut around the Y intersection, creating occasional traffic through the camping zone. The site accommodates big rigs and allows campfires, pets, generators, and alcohol, with cell service available for those needing connectivity while exploring campsites near Oatman.
