Tucson - Gilbert Ray campground in Tucson Mountain Park
Catalina State Park

Greater Phoenix Area - Maricopa County Parks - Cave Creek, Usery, McDowell Mountain, White Tank, Lake Pleasant. Also Lost Dutchman State park east of Phoenix in Apache Jct. is a real winner.

All the state parks in Arizona are great.

All of the above have huge sites. Many have electric and some even have full hookup sites.

The only downside is that public parks typically have a 14-day limit. However, it's a good chance to test out different areas.


The above would be my answer too. HUGE sites in many cases. The Maricopa County parks are quite deluxe as far as landscaping and site conditions. White Tank is a little less so, but still nice. If you want to be close to good shopping, Cave Creek, Usery, and White Tank are pretty good. You're basically at the edge of the suburbs, but it won't feel like it. McDowell Mtn is a bit more remote and the nearby town is a small very upscale bedroom community. We have not been to Lake Pleasant.

If you can go without hookups and towns, there is a lot of room in the CGs at Roosevelt Lake, east of Phoenix. Pretty cheap too.
Currently RV-less but not done yet.

I am aware that the RV parks dont generally have alot of space between neighbors but.... thats why i thought i would ask here to see if anyone had any
to tell about.

the casa grande park looks good too.

thanks
