Arizona RV Camprounds
I've narrowed it down to our stay this winter,and going with Arizona...thanks to all the help,and useful information I got from the group here...(Thank you so dam much!!)...(handshakes). My questions varied so much the last time,and I jumped all over the place,this time I'll be quick,straight to the point, and just a couple questions this time. Would any one care to share a good RV Campground with me on the not so high end campgrounds. I'm looking for one with a 6 month plan, laundry facility. Spacious sites...Just don't want to be crammed in so close...Peaceful, quiet. 2nd question is metered electric...What can I be looking at while there say Dec-May..(6 months)..I know that question has a huge variable. What am I running etc...Being it's the cooler months, and not running a freezer...do more than often, people have to pay more over the amount allotted? Anyways...can anyone throw about me so RV Campgrounds they like,in Arizona that I could look into? Thank you so much...I know my questions are hard to answer...aaugh. Thank you so much....:) George2KViews0likes11CommentsRe: Where To Camp In Winter Down South?Campgrounds/Affordibility
Thanks again everyone...A huge thank you to all!! When it comes to temperatures I can handle...mid 40's for the low,and a high of around 70 would be great!!..Mid 60's to a lucky 70? I'm overwhelmed with all the possibilities,and going over all the feed back over loads my thinking capacity..hahaha..(smile) I'm still leaning on the south west U.S,and the perfect campground with hook ups for the RV....(space a little privacy)..and must say thanks again,for all the good leads....Will be looking into them all shortly :) You guys are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much everybody...thank you,thank you,and thank you again!! I looked into some of the campgrounds mentioned thus far,and the monthly prices were way better than I thought they'd be.I can afford that..(happy) My budget for a campground would be between 500-700 a month now,now that I know all this,thanks to you good people here at the forum...Thank you so much!! I'm so new to all this,and I think my only concern now is just space wise...I don't want to smoke my neighbor out with my BBQ grill..hahahaha..:) I just pray for a good spot to sit out under my canopy,and grill. I loved all the activities some of these places offered as well,for my fiancé..So great!! My brother is also going to join us in his RV also,so hoping we can be next to another. As I mentioned earlier,I ended up getting stupid leukemia last year,and still getting my strength back...Doing great now,and got a full head of hair again...You'd never know,just don't ask me to open any pickle jars,might have to have the wife do that for you...hahahaha..:) I just can't express enough in words how grateful I am for the feedback here...I so wish I could repay you some how..(two handed handshake). I think my only concern now is a spacious site,a neighbor who wouldn't mind the smell of my bbq'ed chicken,or steaks on the grill,and enough room to use my canopy....I can't sit in the sunlight quite yet,after my stem cell transplant...I'm not worried about it,but my Drs always preach to me on the chance of GVHD Disease if I got sunburned....So that's why I need a spacious site so I can use my canopy on the RV...or set a small one up,with my camping chair underneath it. I'm so excited,and feels like I'm leaving tomorrow...hahahaha. I'm still shaking,and trembling since I joined the forum here,and never expected so many options on places to stay. Thank you everyone...thank you SO MUCH!!!!!!!! George332Views0likes0CommentsWhere To Camp In Winter Down South?Campgrounds/Affordibility
Hi..I'm new here,and nice to meet you all (handshake). My name is George (46 years old),and excited to be here,and new to all this,so please forgive me if I come across very uninformed in all this.I've never even left the state of Minnesota before,and trembling as I write this.(smile). Last year I was diagnosed with AML (leukemia)..and went through 4 rounds of chemotherapies,and a stem cell transplant...and presently in remission,but it takes a few years to surely know if I'm cured,and anything can happen between now & then...I'm not here to bore you on my medical conditions,so please forgive. I am so thankful I have a bucket list dream I get to do,and that's to my brother's generosity in helping me get an older used Class C size RV. I'll try to sum up my post as quick,straight to the point,and as simple as I can without yacking to much. I live in Southern Minnesota, and hope to be leaving right around Christmas, and bee line it down south to some place warm, and wish it wasn't the dead of winter, but with my circumstances have no choice if I want to make this a reality. I know it can get chilly no matter where a person goes in the winter. And my options are probably limited..auugh. Does anyone here know of an RV Park, or Campgrounds that are affordable,scenic,perhaps a little peace & quiet where not everyone is so bunched in close together? Somewhere in the South West perhaps? I love fossil hunting,metal detecting,sky watching at night,and if I could have all that with some privacy,and affordability...it would be a dream come true. I know being mid winter,this will be a challenge....Just hoping for something more than Florida for an option. I hope this trip to be 3-4 months long,and I think the biggest dent in my budget will be on the campground fee,with their hook up charge etc...water,electric..etc..If I like the place,will pay a monthly fee to get a better deal if that's an option. I was also hoping/wishing if there was any cool federal lands we could camp on also,that were free,but couldn't do that to long..just a week here,and a week there etc.. But anyways...Some place warm,peaceful,affordble,and scenic. If anyone can point me in the right direction,or have any recommendations on some cool places to stay at,I would be eternally greatful,and appreciate your help to the fullest. Thank you so much!!...and God Bless. George5.5KViews1like27Comments
