DO NOT LOCK IN ONE RESORT NO MATTER HOW HIGHLY RATED FOR YOUR FIRST SNOWBIRD! Now that I have yelled, AZ is a big place with many wonderful places and resorts. We are on year 5 of a multi-month snowbird. We have yet to stay in one place more than a month. Next year we are branching out to Indio, CA for a month. Suggest that you use this forum and rvparkreviews.com and select 3 or 4 resorts the first year.
These come to mind from our experiences: Canyon Vistas at Gold Canyon; Palms Resort, Yuma; McDowell Regional Park, Fountain Hills; Desert Trails, Tucson; Lazy Days KOA, Tucson; and Distant Drums, Camp Verde. These will give you a slice of local life and attractions as well as interesting resorts. Each location and resort has its own unique qualities.
