Very well maintained and beautifully landscaped 55+ RV resort. The facilities are kept in great condition. Large sites, many park model and modular for sale or rent. Gated community. Pools and spa, horse shoes, pickle ball, activities center and club house and much more.
Stayed here over Independence Day week on vacation. They have 10 year age limit on RVs but made an exception for us due to it being the off season. We found all the staff and permanent residents very helpful and nice. Great little retirement or winter hold over.
Quiet, clean, remote little military family camp on Lake Martinez with concrete RV sites and full hook ups, 50 amp electric only, but they have a loaner 30 amp adapter if they can find it. Park models and cabins available for those who do not tent camp or RV. Various types of water craft available for rent and limited docking for your own boat.
Easy to get camp site reservations in Summer. Have not tried here in winter as the place fills up with military retirees/ snow birds.
Staff on the other hand is mentally lost at best. Seems like they don’t really know what’s what most of the time ( refer back to the 50/30 amp adaptor that they usually can’t find as their storage location is on the floor beside the desk). The store is adequately stocked with alcohol, USMC souvenirs, but very lacking the things campers need most often, ie toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap etc. they don’t even sell popcorn, how can one camp without popcorn.
Despite the “lost in space” staff and the “non” mercantile in a remote place, I give this place 4 stars as it is quiet, inexpensive and a great little spot away from the city.
Clean park with full hookups. They sell propane and have a store, however they are rarely open. If you need propane you have to ring a large brass bell. If you need anything from the store, your better off driving into town. If you need to check in or out you have to call the camp host number listed on the door at the office/store.
BUT BEWARE: the owner is notorious for trying to slip additional charges on CC purchase, ie: $5 for toilet paper etc. so if you pay by credit card watch you statement closely. And if you call him out on it he WILL deny it.
Pinal county park and has no amenities so be prepared to dry camp. Price is $10/ day - day use is free. All but 1 or 2 site are pull thru with shade Ramada’s and picnic tables. County does a great job at keeping the gravels roads in the park well maintained, however during the rainy season be prepared for some washouts.
Sites are quite far apart from each other giving the feel of open space. There are some short hiking trails. Entire park is wedged between AZ 84 and I-8 but yet highway noise is very minimal. Approximately 15 min drive to Stanfield and 30 min to Maricopa or Casa Grande. I- 8 ramp is 1 mile west onAZ 84.
Park is currently near full with contractors working the border wall. Most are ok but there are some that are very discourteous, inconsiderate towards others. Management allows them to race up and down the roads with their dirt bikes and 4 wheelers.
Streets are pea gravel spread on top of what used to be pavement. Sites are soft sand and gravel that is not level or maintained by the park. Pool is old and in need or replacement and only receives maintenance once or twice a week at best.
Electric is metered @ $.20/kWh. Water is from a well and untreated,very hard and very salty you can wash with it but most get their drinking water from one of many “salt free” water dispensing station around Yuma.
I’ve lived here 2 years and have Seen both management and maintenance go down hill. The owner pays the place a visit once a year. This park for the price, compared to others in Yuma, is livable but is a bit outdated and run down.
This place is listed as “55 +” however the owner allows all the contractors as it provides him with income that he normally would not have during the non-snowbird season.
