Thanks!
How far south do you want to go? Right now we are in Casa Grande at Fiesta Grande which is an Encore Resort. There are several sites open here and it can handle a Class A. Give them a call and see if you can come in.

Actually you don't have to be attending an event to stay at Westworld. We stayed there for almost a month last May while DW had surgery at Mayo Clinic. $27 per night incl water and 50A power. No sewer but dump station on site. Ask for site overlooking the polo field. We love it there as between events there are usually less than a dozen RV's so you just about have the place to yourself. Great BBQ place called The Thumb just outside the north gate too.

People in the RV office were very helpful.

If wanting to do things in the greater Phoenix area over to Apache Junction, Casa Grande is too far to do day trips justice.

Don’t know when you are coming but we just had a a cancelation for a spot for 4 days this week. The 5th through the 9th leaving on Sunday. This time of year these spots don’t come up very often. And I’m sure this won’t last long. It can handle a 50 foot rv and has 30/50 power and water. There is a dump station.
We volunteer here each winter. Ohh! Where you say?
White Tank Regional Park,
Waddell Az ((near Surprise)
You can check it online and reserve it or you can call 602 506-2930 if this can help you out!
Hope this isnt against the rules.

On the west side of Phoenix are a few good parks. Paradise RV Resort in Sun City (an Encore Park) Sunflower RV Resort in Surprise and Happy Trails also in Surprise. Also north of town along I-17 are a few places.
