RV campgrounds around Cashion, Arizona offer various resort amenities while remaining accessible to both Phoenix and natural attractions. Located in the Sonoran Desert, the region maintains average temperatures of 105°F during summer months, with winter lows rarely dropping below 40°F. The flat terrain and desert landscape make most RV parks in the area particularly suited for larger Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels.
What to do
Boating access at Lake Pleasant: Pleasant Harbor RV Resort provides multiple camping options with water access. "RV camping on big water in Arizona! We have stayed here a couple of times. Make sure to book a spot up on cliff overlooking the water. Great sunsets. Free shuttle to haul kayak to boat ramp," notes a camper at Pleasant Harbor RV Resort.
Golf and recreation: Many RV parks near Cashion feature on-site golf courses and extensive amenities. "This is a self described 5 star RV long stay park. It has Almost every amenity you can think of. The park is slowly being converted to all homes. 18 hole golf course on site and a bar and grill," according to a review from Pueblo El Mirage RV Resort.
Swimming options: Multiple pools are available at several Cashion area campgrounds. "We loved the three pools, multiple hot tubs and modern showers and laundry rooms. This park can be hard to get into because of its popularity," mentions a camper about Mesa Spirit RV Resort.
What campers like
Well-maintained facilities: Campgrounds near Cashion prioritize cleanliness and upkeep. "This is a huge park. 1365 sites. Crammed in pretty tight, but fairly clean and very nice staff. Most of the sites are pull thru so that's a bonus," shares a reviewer about Leaf Verde RV Resort.
Desert views: The surrounding landscape offers scenic vistas from certain campsites. "The views from my spot were pretty epic. Relaxed and fished off the shoreline. Going to have to revisit after doing more research on the fishing here," reports a camper at Pleasant Harbor RV Resort.
Proximity to urban amenities: "Short drive to White Tanks, Superstition Mountain, Mystery Castle, Lake Pleasant, Phoenix Historical District," notes a reviewer about Cotton Lane RV Resort, highlighting the convenient location for exploring regional attractions.
What you should know
Age restrictions: Several parks near Cashion enforce age limitations. "55 and older resort. Not sure how to rate it, but it should be listed somewhere that it's not family friendly," cautions a camper about Sunflower RV Resort.
Aircraft noise: Some campgrounds experience noise from nearby military operations. "There's a train that goes by at least five times a day and night and a freeway just a few blocks away. So it's not super quiet, however, the noise hasn't really bothered me either," explains a reviewer about Sundial Mobile & RV Park.
Site spacing concerns: Many RV campgrounds in the Cashion area feature tight spacing between sites. "Sights are very tight and very close together. Slides almost touch one another," warns a Cotton Lane RV Resort camper.
Tips for camping with families
Check pet policies: Breed restrictions exist at some RV parks. "We went through the extensive application to stay a night and then called back and were told we could not have a reservation because our dog was 'mixed'. We were actually going to drop the dog off with family in Phoenix, but were told if we even enter the gates with the dog in our truck they would cancel our reservation," shares a Cotton Lane RV Resort reviewer.
Find children-friendly parks: Not all resorts welcome families with kids. "When she showed up, she was told she would have to leave as children were not welcome. They should've caught this in the reservation information weeks in advance," recounts a Mesa Spirit RV Resort camper about their daughter's experience.
Consider dry camping options: Non-hookup sites offer more affordable stays with lake access. "Chose the dry site 'Vista Point' and at first was a little weary but was pleasantly surprised how many others were doing the same. They do have port a pottys which were actually clean," notes a Pleasant Harbor RV Resort visitor.
Tips from RVers
Site marker visibility: "I got in after dark and it was very difficult to find my reserved spot. The site markers are so small that you can't read them from your car unless it's daylight," advises a camper at Sundial Mobile & RV Park.
Hookup locations: "If you're a Class A or C towing, you'll probably have to drop to to access the hookups, as they are at the back end of the pull-throughs, not toward the middle as they usually are," explains a reviewer from Desert Shadows RV Resort.
Overnight options: "Just show up at dusk or later, and this very nice, truly chill but soo ginormous resort let us park right in the front/middle for the night. And swim. And do laundry. They put cones around us, and said we could put out our slide-out! Checkout's at 11," shares a Mesa Spirit RV Resort camper about their overnight parking strategy.
