Welcome to the New Era of Red Rock Waterside

Dear Valued Resident and Neighbor,
 

Something special is happening on the shores of Lake Havasu. For over six decades, the property formerly known as Crazy Horse Campgrounds has been a fixture on the Island. It is an iconic piece of land, but for too long, it lacked the vision and care it truly deserved.


I am writing to you today not just as the new leaseholder of this property, but as a fellow resident.
 

My connection to this land goes back to the 1960s when I started coming here as a child. For many years, we rented the exact same RV site, building a lifetime of memories. Because I fell in love with this shoreline, I eventually purchased a handful of park models over the years. However, as time went on, I grew increasingly frustrated with the lack of customer service, maintenance, and basic care this legendary property was receiving. A couple of years ago, I reached a turning point. I realized this location simply deserved better. I had a decision to make: either sell my piece of the lake and walk away, or step up and fix the property myself. Because I have always seen the incredible potential of this land, I chose the latter, and I reached out to the State Land Department to negotiate taking over the lease.
 

My professional roots are built on decades of executive leadership and development. Before transitioning into high-end construction, I spent nearly 20 years building an industry-leading cabinet manufacturing business, earning a spot on the Inc. 500 list while being nominated for Ernst & Young's prestigious Entrepreneur of the Year award three consecutive years. Through that journey, and my long-standing involvement in the Young Presidents' Organization (YPO), I learned that the difference between a good operation and a legendary one comes down to uncompromising standards and exceptional customer care. Today, as a Master Builder and General Contractor specializing in extraordinary luxury custom homes—and as the developer behind a signature riverfront project currently in motion in Parker—my team and I spend our time executing projects where every detail matters. When I looked at this property, I didn’t just see an ordinary campground; I saw a premium waterfront resort that deserved the exact same uncompromising standards that have defined my entire career.  

Today, I am proud to announce our official leasehold of the property for the next 10 years. Moving forward, we will be known as Red Rock Waterside.
 

Why does a custom home builder take on a six-decade-old property? Because we believe that prime real estate deserves uncompromising leadership. We aren’t just the new leaseholders of this historic land; we are the new stewards of your lakefront lifestyle. My immediate goal is not to disrupt the lifestyle you love, but to elevate it. We are stripping away the neglect of the past and replacing it with the Red Rock Standard. For you, this means:
 

  • A Professional Hand: Bringing sophisticated, hands-on leadership and enhanced maintenance to a historic location.

  • A Curated Culture: Restoring a clean, secure, and family-friendly environment.

  • A Modern Pulse: Infusing a fresh, vibrant energy into the nostalgia we all love.

  • A Secure Future: A critically needed 10-year lease for your site that directly aligns with our master 10-year lease with the State of Arizona. This provides the ultimate foundation for secure investments, increased property values, and desirable resales.
     

As a park model owner at Red Rock Waterside, your investment is in expert hands. As our new vision unfolds, we are actively developing future programs designed to offer you unprecedented flexibility and new ways to maximize your waterfront getaway. We look forward to sharing these exciting opportunities with you as our master plan takes shape.
 

PROTECTING THE STANDARD AND YOUR INVESTMENT
 

To establish Red Rock Waterside as the premier vacation resort on the Island, we are immediately implementing our new Red Rock Standard: Guest Experience Policies, which are linked here for your review.  Because I have lived here, I know exactly why these guidelines are necessary. They were written to protect your peace, secure your property values, elevate the community's image, and eliminate the disruptions of the past.
 

As part of this new standard, one of our first major initiatives will be a community-wide site cleanup. We will be working with all residents to clear away clutter and update site exteriors. While we know change requires an adjustment, these collective efforts will immediately improve the aesthetic of your retreat and protect the value of your investment.
 

Life on the lake is best enjoyed with family and friends. As Red Rock Residence owners, you enjoy the exclusive benefit of hosting personal visitors at your home at no charge. We only ask that your guests register at the entrance gate upon arrival for community security. Please note that if your visitors plan to launch a watercraft on-site, standard day pass fees apply for boat launching and trailer parking.
