Arizona Oasis

42 RV Sites, 10 Cabins

Arizona Oasis RV Resort in Ehrenberg, Arizona, offers 42 full-hookup RV sites and 10 cabins on the Colorado River at the California border, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 68 feet behind a gated entrance. Covered pull-through and riverside back-in categories join premium and standard tiers, with a marina, boat ramp, pool, and hot tub. Forty-two sites span covered pull-thru, premium back-in, riverside back-in, and standard pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV, sized to 68 feet. Two categories stand out: the covered sites put a shade structure over the pad, which in the Arizona desert is worth more than almost any other upgrade, and the riverside tier puts you on the water. Ten cabins round out the lodging. A laundry, showers, and a gated entrance handle the practical side. A marina and boat ramp open the Colorado for boating, water sports, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, with an outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, beach, clubhouse, game room, playground, dog park, horseshoes, hiking, and biking filling the rest. Offroading is nearby. Ehrenberg sits directly across the river from Blythe on one of the most iconic waterways in the American Southwest, which makes this a genuine waterfront resort in a desert setting — year-round warm weather, river recreation, and I-10 right there. Quartzsite's winter gem shows are 20 miles east. Winter is the season in the low desert, with summer river traffic drawing a second wave. Reserve well ahead for January through March.

Verde Ranch RV Resort

386 RV Sites, 16 Cabins, 2 Glamping Sites, 8 Wagons

Verde Ranch RV Resort in Camp Verde, Arizona, is a resort-class property with full-hookup RV sites, cabin rentals, an outdoor pool and splash pad, a hot tub and spa, a fitness center, a clubhouse and a dog park. Sites are big-rig friendly and take coaches up to 75 feet, with EV charging on site. The resort sits just off I-17, 90 miles north of Phoenix and 25 miles south of Sedona. Full-hookup RV sites accommodate rigs to 75 feet across a big-rig-friendly layout, with EV charging available — still uncommon at RV resorts and increasingly decisive for guests towing with an electric vehicle. Cabin rentals serve guests traveling without a rig. On-site laundry, bathrooms, showers, a general store, a boutique shop and firewood cover the practical side, a business center supports guests working remotely, and WiFi reaches the property. Golf cart rentals make the resort easy to cross. Recreation is extensive. An outdoor pool and splash pad anchor the warm months, with a hot tub, sauna and spa alongside, and a fitness center and clubhouse open year-round. Pickleball, shuffleboard, bocce ball, horseshoes and sports courts spread across the grounds, with billiards and an arcade indoors. Walking trails follow the creek and pond on the property, where fishing and kayaking are available, and a playground and fenced dog park serve families and pets. A planned activities calendar and visiting food trucks fill out the social side. Pets are welcome. Montezuma Castle National Monument is five miles north on I-17 — a 20-room Sinaguan cliff dwelling set 90 feet into a limestone alcove. Sedona's red rock country is 25 miles north through Oak Creek Canyon, and Fort Verde State Historic Park, Cliff Castle Casino, the Verde Canyon Railroad and the Verde Valley Wine Trail's wineries are all within short reach. The resort operates year-round in Yavapai County's high-desert climate. Spring wildflowers run March through May and autumn light on the red rocks peaks in October — the two busiest touring windows. Reserve well ahead for both.

Sunrise RV Resort

5 RV Sites

Sunrise RV Resort in Apache Junction, AZ, offers 5 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites are standard short-term back-ins carrying water, sewer, and electric. This is a 55+ community, gated, with laundry, a bathhouse with showers, personal mailboxes, and recycling. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The resort posts local emergency numbers for police, animal control, and the utility alongside 911 — a small thing that reflects how the place is run. The amenity list belongs to the wider community rather than the five sites: a heated outdoor pool, a hot tub and sauna, a fitness center, a recreation center, a clubhouse, a library, a craft room, sport courts, tennis, pickleball, shuffleboard, billiards, walking trails, and live entertainment. Apache Junction sits at the base of the Superstition Mountains, forty minutes east of Phoenix in the high desert. Rates for short-term stays are on the booking page. Confirm the 55+ requirement, and note that short-term RV availability here is genuinely limited — call rather than assume.

Thirty-nine sites span new spacious full hookup, new spacious full hookup with view, RV full hookup tree shaded, and RV water and 50-amp tree shaded categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 60 feet. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-50-amp category does not carry sewer at the site. Naming categories by whether they are shaded or have a view is genuinely useful at this elevation. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and RV storage handle the practical side. An outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and spa anchor the property, with a fitness center, recreation center, clubhouse, game room, billiards, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, dog park, and bar filling the rest. Live music runs through the season, and offroading, a golf course, a state park, and a national park are nearby. Stargazing and birding are excellent at altitude.

Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

Grey Squirrel Resorts

19 Cottages

Grey Squirrel Resort in Fawnskin, CA, offers 19 private cabins across three wooded acres on the north shore of Big Bear Lake. This is a cabin resort rather than a serviced RV park — the published record shows no RV sites or hookups, so contact them directly if you're traveling in a rig. A general store, firewood, a spa, and WiFi serve guests, and the resort is open all year. Pets are welcome. The property also hosts weddings. A pond, walking trails, horseshoes, swimming, fishing, hiking, biking, mountain biking, and birding fill the grounds, with skiing and snowboarding close in winter and golf nearby. Fawnskin sits on Big Bear Lake's quieter north shore, away from the village bustle on the south side. The resort has welcomed families, couples, and group retreats since the 1950s — more than seven decades of mountain hospitality in the same place. Rates for the cabins are on the booking page. Ski season and summer both fill Big Bear — reserve ahead, and call about RV accommodation before you tow.
