A Colorado River whitewater rafting vacation hotel

Seeing and exploring the magnificent Colorado River on the border of Arizona and California is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It is the primary river of the desert Southwest, providing water to Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada and California.

Most famous for its rushing whitewater, the Colorado River flows 1,450 miles from its headwaters high in Rocky Mountain National Park to the Gulf of Mexico where it ends. One spot on the Colorado River is only 65 miles from Holiday Inn Express in Blythe, CA, a perfectly-located hotel for river adventurers and visitors. Make it your “base camp” for river adventures or the many other opportunities for fun and recreation in the area.
