Sonoran Desert RV Park

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.

New to the rv lifestyle was trying to find a lot during busy snowbird season. And finally found one.

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.

Right off Monte was so nice when we got in. Our lot was wonderful and the dogs loved it. The view was spectacular and the facility was pristine.

From the first contact at making reservations, to the rescheduling, to the follow up contact to the check in and then the park it’s self….CLASS! Park is Clean, level, spacious, pool is heated, two dog parks. The park staff are solid rockstars!

Very nice place. Kept very clean. Staff very friendly. Resort type feel. A bit pricey for me but if you need/want all of the amenities it’s probably worth it. The only negative I could find is the train traffic is noisy and frequent.

Awesome camp/rv grounds

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.

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.

This is an extremely well-maintained park. Campsites are nice sized and well spaced with some shrubs and trees. Bathrooms and showers were spotless. Beautiful pool. Management is very accommodating and efficient. Covid safe.
I am not sure why it was listed within Good Sam but we were unable to get a good Sam discount. 47.50 is a bit more than we are used to paying as full time traveling RVers.

We stayed here one night and would recommend it for anyone wanting to enjoy the night skies, having some distance between RV pull in's, and relax while driving cross country.

The staff was welcoming and showed us to our sites and ensured we hooked up with no issues.  Then, let us enjoy the night.

The dog run was great and well maintained.  We thought he pet rock cemetery was touching (passed on pets have rocks with their names on them laid out in a small memorial). 

We had a pull through full hook up site.  The site was required minor leveling, but no need to unhook. Wifi worked great.  There was road and rail noise though.

We are not sure if there are really any local attractions.

At this moment in time, we are visiting during the increase of COVID 19 precautions. As a result, this location is taking diligent steps to avoid exposure and transmission. All common areas are closed and they’ve created a social distancing system for their business. I cannot comment on any of the amenities that are closed, but the layout of this place is great. Everything is in good, working order. While not an expansive layout, trailers are not on top of one another, you have a little personal wiggle room (relative to the places closer to PHX). The hostess that met us (Laura) is lovely and very friendly. There are a couple small spots for food and incidentals 2 miles away and a couple travel stops, too. We’re looking forward to returning once the pandemic has passed!

This is an amazing oasis in the desert!! We stayed for 5 nights this time and loved every minute. We attended the holiday potluck and card bingo afterwards and had a great time. The staff is amazingly friendly and truly make you feel welcome and valued. Scott (owner) is on the premises and is constantly improving the facility in both big ways and in small. It’s all in the details. We have stayed at many KOA from Arizona to Montana to Illinois and this one is by far the best!! We have even stayed at KOA Holiday level facilities that cost much more and were not as nice. If you like big campsites, quiet, lots of stars, great facilities including a big sparkling heated pool, super friendly staff and an oasis in the desert for 1 night or several, this is the place to stop. Consider driving out of you way to stay too. You won’t regret it.

The best KOA park we've been to very clean with friendly staff.

Although I was just spending one night on my way home I was so surprised to find the most amazing K-9 Park ever. 3 separate secure areas with large grass areas in two of them. My pup had so much fun. They have water, toys and baggies readily available. Also the entire park as well as the K-9 area was very clean and well kept.
