If for this winter, the two state parks mentioned will be fully booked. in the sections with hookups.
Do look at the Maricopa County Regional Parks:
Usery Mtn
McDowell Mtn
White Tank Mtn
Cave Creek
Lake Pleasant
Seems like I'm forgetting one. Those are beautiful parks, big sites, water and electric. Full of big rigs too.
We have stayed at The Arizonian out in the end of Apache Junction or Gold Canyon. It certainly has some permanent sites, but it's not a park model type place. It's out in the desert, lots of land to hike into. Many of the guests have ATVs and go on trail rides. There seems to be a model airplane and helicopter group, plus the usual clubhouse activities. And a rugged "golf" course which is really just raw desert with some mats for tees and I think sand greens IIRC. You can probably get a spot there on short notice.
