Where in Arizona in the winter?

Desert Trails has most of that except for the paved roads, which IMHO only encourage people to drive too fast anyway.

While on the "unfashionable" SW side of Tucson, west of the Tucson Mountains, the location is great for hiking, quiet and you can be in downtown Tucson in less than a half hour with very little traffic most of the time.

Full hook-up is under $600/month. Friendly residents, lots of organized activities and entertainment, friendly owner and staff. We are going on our 6th winter there.

The winter weather in Tucson is hard to beat - cool nights in the 40's and warm days in the 70's with almost endless sunshine. There have been a couple nights below freezing the last few winters, but that usually lasts lees than an hour in the early morning. I can only recall two or three days with cool, damp weather.

Near Benson AZ is the Escapee's park in Benson, and it is fairly low cost to stay there. Nearby places to visit are the Tucson air museum, Tombstone, and other great places to see. West of Tucson is the Saguaro National Park.

Look up Escapees.com

The Escapees also have a park in Casa Grande. If you spend a couple of weeks at one, then you can go visit the other.

Other low cost places to stay would be Quartzsite. You would probably need to invest a few hundred dollars, then be able to dry camp for weeks at a time with the proper solar system and larger fresh water tank.

You can buy 7.5 gallon blue water tanks at Wal Mart, and fill them while out sightseeing. Then I would hang them from a tie down strap from my ladder and use a siphon to refill my 100 gallon fresh water tank.

You can ask for dry camping tips, and you will get plenty of advice.

Look at Fiesta Grande in Casa Grande, AZ. Meets all your requirements.

Walking distance less than one mile to all shopping. Groceries, restaurants, home improvement, clothing, haircuts, chain pharmacies etc.

For previous posts search in the RV Parks section for either Tucson or Phoenix or wherever.

Would appreciate your input on nice RV parks or resorts to do next winter. My preferences are:
Phoenix or Tucson area preferred, but not mandatory.
I want to be near shopping, attractions, entertainment etc.
Nice clean place with activities, pool, and fitness center.
I like paved roads, landscaping, palm trees, etc.
All this for $400 or less per month.
Okay, how about the neighborhood of $600, is it possible?
Thank you for your advice

Quartzite is the exact opposite of what you are looking for.

We stay at "Voyager" in Tucson. It's one of the best parks we've ever been in. Tucson is great in the winter. We have 3 pools, 2 whirl pools, pickle ball, hiking, great bike trails, & a view of the mountains. We also liked "Valle Del Oro" in Mesa, but Mesa was a little too busy for us. Both parks come out to about $650 a month with deals if you stay for 3 or 4 months. The deals will be going on now.
