    Leaf Verde RV Resort's pet policy permits dogs throughout the property with clean amenities and multiple dog exercise areas. The sites are designed to accommodate RVs with full hookups, while also offering cabin options for pet owners. Pets must be leashed while on-site, except within designated dog park areas. The resort features clean bathrooms, hot showers, pool access, and a comfortable lounge with library. Sites can be somewhat close together which may create challenges when neighbors have unfriendly dogs that cannot be outside simultaneously. The park is maintained in excellent condition with paved walkways and large laundry facilities. Most sites are pull-through with full hookup capability including both 30 and 50 amp electrical service.

    White Tank Mountain Regional Park and Skyline Regional Park provide additional pet-friendly camping options with varied terrain for dog walking. Both parks feature well-marked hiking trails directly accessible from campgrounds where leashed pets are welcome. Skyline's seven primitive campsites include fire pits, BBQ grills and concrete picnic tables, though the sites lack hookups and potable water. The trails remain popular with mountain bikers until late evening, making it less ideal for noise-sensitive dogs. For free dispersed camping with pets, Saddle Mountain BLM near Tonopah allows dogs in a more remote setting approximately 30 minutes from Buckeye. This area permits campfires and provides basic amenities including trash collection and restrooms, though dogs should be closely monitored due to wildlife, potential glass hazards on weekends, and occasional target shooting activity.

      Lake Pleasant Regional Park Campground

      Midweek Getaway

      My wife and I took a two day trip upto Lake Pleasant with our Coleman Camper and Bayliner Boat. It's just a 50 min drive from Buckeye, so it's very close and convenient for us to getaway and still have city amenities near by 15 min drive. The campgrounds are very well taken care of and the restrooms are clean. Unfortunately there was a Fire Ban when we stayed, but that didn't stop us from enjoying the nightlife of the stars and mingling with fellow campers. During the day the lake was so relaxing and refreshing during the heat of the desert. Took the boat as far north to explore the lake and the secluded coves this lake offers. The website makes it easy to pick your site based on availability, however during the week you probably can just pull in and grab a site.

      Leaf Verde RV Resort

      Nice campground close to Phoenix

      Leaf Verde is in Buckeye, AZ which is only 30 minutes from Phoenix. The pool is refreshing and if you aren’t into swimming there is a pool table, dog park and shuffle board to keep you busy. The sites are gravel and close together but nice.

      Sonoran Desert RV Park

      Well maintained and very friendly

      Important: If you plan to arrive after hours you must call ahead so you can get the gate code. They gave us a temporary spot that was pull thru due to the time of our late arrival. Then at noon they escorted us to our site to set up for the duration of our visit. I included an images of daily, weekly, and monthly rates for 2023 and full list of amenities and the winter activities. There are also deluxe sites available. This camp ground is pet friendly with a dog park area and offered daily planned activities. We participated in game night, line dancing classes, aquatic aerobics in the heated pool, and the New Years party. The showers are very clean and the laundry room was immaculate. The sites have full hook up 30/50 amp and sites up to 100'x55'. They offer propane services. There isn't anything to do in the town.

      Awkward and crammed Face to face sites

      If you’re a social butterfly and don’t have dogs, this place could work. The sites are really crammed in and on top of that, your door is face to face with your neighbor which makes it so awkward to do anything outside when you don’t want to talk to an overly chatty neighbor. Or if you or your neighbors have unfriendly dogs they can’t be out at the same time. Facilities are decent, same with pool. Adequate dog parks but nowhere for dogs to pee near sites other than gravel.

      Sonoran Desert RV Park

      Beautiful Pool

      Perfect Stop outside of Phoenix area. Clean and very well manicured RV campground. Our late arrival reservation was handed graciously and info was easy to understand. The pool is beautiful and the shower/restroom was so pristine. Nice dog park.

      Sonoran Desert RV Park

      Great Experience

      Our RV GPS and Waze took us right to this very nice campground(CG). Check-in was quick, and we were escorted to back-in site 503 with FHUs. The sites here are long and wide enough for our 40’ fifth wheel and F450 truck. The sites in our area were also decently spaced for a private CG. There was also room for an OHV if we’d brought one. The guest WiFi works pretty well with a download of 6.73 and an upload of.92. Water pressure was good at 50 psi, and we got 4 bars on Verizon. There are a few trees in the CG, but we had a clear shot of the northern sky for Starlink. They also have cable, but we didn’t use it. They had a very nice 4000 sq ft, sectioned-off dog park with two of the areas/corrals having grass. Behind the show/laundry/pool facility is where you drop off your propane tank for fills. They do not have a propane service that comes to the site. We were also impressed with their PETHouse sites where you have a private dog run. Their laundry facility was larger than most CGs of this size and it was very clean. There’s also a wash pad where you can wash your OHV or truck. Gilla Bend has a Family Dollar and a couple of small grocery stores plus eating establishments. You’re about 30 minutes from major amenities in Buckeye and an hour from Phoenix. We stayed here with friends for 4 nights and enjoyed ourselves.

      Sonoran Desert RV Park

      Very nice campground

      Stayed here for 5 days in order to regroup and reorganize after dispersed camping for awhile. A nice stay especially having full hookups, laundry, WiFi and a nice dog park with GREEN grass… ☺️. This park is extremely clean and well designed. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

      Clean RV park

      Easy to get to from the 10 freeway, good sized RV park w decent sized sites, park is kept clean, pool, Pickleball courts, cornhole area, dog park, huge laundry room, and the people are nice. Regular pull through spots are kind of like buddy spots as your doors face each other. Back in and deluxe sites are decent sized. Roadways are asphalt and large enough to maneuver bigger rigs through. All sites are full hook up w 30 & 50 amp electrical.
