Can anyone name a RV Park besides Palm Creek? I called this morning and for a month it's $880.00. We do not golf, but I do want a nice place.
This will be our first trip to Arizona.
Any Ideas will be helpful....

Quartzsite has some very nice and very large FHU sites starting at $300/mo. Casa Grande is just another densely populated urban area, as far as we are concerned.

How long do you plan on staying? Many parks have seasonal rates that are cheaper than the monthly rates. For example, if you're staying for 3 months, then the price at Palm Creek would work out to be $665, 4 months at $624 per month, 5 months at $579 per month, or 6 months at $533 per month. Lots of other parks have similar deals, so be sure to ask if you plan on staying for more than one month (usually 3 months is the minimum stay for getting any kind of break on the monthly fee).

Look in the Trailer Life Directory book or go to the internet.

Here's a few parks, not sure of price or how good: Foothills West

Southeast of CasaG:
Picacho Peak
55+ RV Resort

Tucson Area:
55+ RV Resort East, which is gated & looks nice from the road. There are two Rincon Country RV Resorts West or East.

Another 55+ RV Resort in Tucson: Western Way

Green Valley is near Tucson a retirement community in fact. Reviews

Small town of Wilcox maybe an hour or so from Tucson. Reviews & Others

Closer to Tucson in Benson there is a 55+ RV Resort, NO make that TWO. - Others & Reviews

Huachuca City, 19.73 miles S
Tombstone, 22.34 miles SE
Sierra Vista, 28.53 miles S
Fort Huachuca, 28.73 miles SW

Desert Trails western edge of Tucson, not seen it, just read about it a few weeks ago:
Review at Cyberspaces

"This park is hard to rate. If you want peace and quiet, especially in the summer, this is the perfect place. You are away from Tucson and miss typical airplane, train, or highway traffic noise. And we had a great space next to some desert brush. The owner is a terrific guy and gives you a great orientation about places to go and things to see. His orientation was very helpful to us. But, the park does need some serious work; especially the water slides that need to be removed (since they are non-functional now). Nevertheless, I would stay here again, versus another park that is just next door, but very bare. Our rate reflects the CCUSA discount. We camped here in a Motorhome." AND "We chose this park based on the rave reviews by others, but were somewhat disappointed. It appears that it is the friendly owners and guests as well as the activities that make this such a popular place to spend the Winter. The park would benefit greatly by some demolition of the old water park buildings, more modern facilities and cable TV. Many of the sites are just unappealing bare gravel, but since most of the snowbirds had left, we were able to park in a very pleasant spot with lovely desert vegetation all around. Wi-fi reception was spotty and TV reception poor. We would probably try to find a park closer to the city if traveling through here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel." RV Park Reviews

A real nice park about 10 miles south of Casa Grande in Arizona City. the surrounding areas a bit bland but the park is nice, quiet, clean, well landscaped, friendly people, etc. Not sure on current prices but was $400 something when we were there about 4 yrs ago.

Sometime you need to think outside the box and look at mobile home parks that also rent to RV's. A lot of times they arent in the RV directories. Cottonwood Mobile Home park in Casa Grande is a nice budget alternative. Dont expect any frills though and its not a 55+ park. There will be younger people in the park and you might see an occaisional Police car in the park. Its not $800 a month either.

Try Val Vista... friends of ours (Roy & Linda) will be there for a good part of the winter & they said the prices are reasonable.

Eh!
