We are staying here a month. Good access to this area of AZ, but noisy due to being between I8 and I10, plus a railroad. Park roads and sites are all dirt/stone so can be muddy if it rains, and dusty if windy. We are in the desert. Nice thing is the sites are irregular, not the usual parallel to each other. Sites are large. Office workers are friendly. Not a lot of organized activities. No charge to wash units but this has to be done in one location close to office. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Let us check in early. A little noisy because of the freeway but well kept. Staff very helpful and suggested a couple of places to get service work done. Wi-Fi adequate but not the best. Plan to stay the rest of the week. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is the desert! If you are looking for an upscale resort this is not for you. There are a lot of friendly folks, wide open spaces, and freedom you won't find at other parks. On the downside you are surrounded by I-10 & I-8 along with trains that roll on endlessly. If you can block these out you'll enjoy the park. We stayed here a month. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here overnight. Staff was friendly and stayed late in order to check us in and escort us to the site. The road and sites are dirt and the site was not even close to being level. The pull-through site was narrow, awkward and shared with another fifth wheel. The electrical, sewer, water and cable was easily accessible. The campground is surrounded by I-10, I-8 and railroad tracks. Noise could be a problem for light sleepers. No landscape to mention. Wind was blowing and dust covered everything. Probably would not stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This campground is a little on the rough side. The entrance road is paved but, after you get past the administration building, the place consists of dusty, dirt roads filled with pot holes. Sites are not level and consist of dirt with large gravel filling in the low spots. Sites are mostly back-ins, but there are some cresent-shaped pull-throughs. This is the desert, but the entire place doesn't really have one bit of landscaping. Be careful walking your dogs because there are small prickers all over that get tangled up in their coats. Staff are friendly, but some don't seem to know a lot about the surrounding area and they have to keep asking each other to find the answers to questions. The trains and the interstates are close, but we didn't find them bothersome. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This campground has the feel of a State or National Park with the cleanliness and ameneties of a private campground. The sites are of good size. The trails and roads are great for walking - there is enough land to keep you busy walking around the campground for days. The only downside is the proximity to the interstate and train tracks. We will come back. Fifth Wheel. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very, very friendly! Only reason I gave it a 9 instead of 10 is because there is a nearby
busy train track and 2 major freeways and I am a very light sleeper. Otherwise a perfect facility. I will definatly go back! We camped here in a Motorhome.
I was here on a Western Horizons sales pitch freebie deal; not sure of exact daily rate. Wouldn't want to stay here unless it was free, it's so unfriendly to newcomers. Staff is only helpful to members or prospects. Sites are unlevel, crowded, and sewer hookups are nearly out of reach. Water is poor quality, undrinkable.Wifi is expensive and only works in small area. Fitness room equipment torn & outdated. Spa and pool dirty.This is just a big paved parking lot that needs a lot of improvement. Would not visit again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A well maintained Western Horizons park and the best of the group we have visited. Level sites, nice quality of gravel (smooth pebbles). Plenty of space for tow car. Nice distance from neighbors. VERY courteous staff vs. "take it or leave it" attitude of previous WH parks. Lots of well-organized activities. Pool facilities clean (although we did not use them). Good laundry facilities. Close to Casa Grande and a 45 minute drive to Phoenix area. Other than this, nothing special; just a nice clean park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is our "home park" for Western Horizon so I am a bit biased. A clean park with wide paved roads and easy back in sites. All sites have a patio and are wide enough for all the "big rigs". There is room to park next to the patio so your car is just outside your door. They have a few pull thru's but they keep them for overnighters. All the facilities are excellent as is the staff. I don't know how old the park is but it looks new. Some say it's just a big parking lot because of the lack of trees but it's the nicest parking lot I can find. Wi-fi is spotty and goes out when it gets overloaded at busy times. There are plenty of activities every day and great meals. The pot lucks are the best in the area and they have entertainment at least twice a week. Casa Grande is a growing community with several good restaurants, excellent golf and some shopping. There are plans to build a hugh shopping mall in 2007. They have approved plans for over 20,000 new homes to be built in the next 5 years so the area is going to change in a hurry. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Western Horizons/RPI/Coast to Coast (and affilliates) Campground. We were here for Christmas and had a wonderful time! Lots of "snowbirds" -- all having a wonderful time in the WARM Arizona weather. Great activities, large sites, fully paved. WiFi is now avilable at about $2 a day. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a Coast to Coast, RPI and Passport America Park. It is a membership park and is better than a lot that we have stayed at. Sites are gravel, level, of adequate size for a big rig and easy to get in to. There are concrete patios. Roads are paved and wide. There are a few trees but they pose no problems. Showers and laundry were clean. They have lots of activities & entertainment in the winter months. There is a security gate which they give you the code number to use at night when it is closed. We would go back to this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Large, 55+ fully paved park – mostly “snow-bird” sites with a scattering of available sites for folks traveling through. Not much landscaping to speak of, the park is in an open, flat and very sunny desert area – very hot, even in May. The park is not big-rig friendly, all the somewhat narrow sites are back-in and most have very tight turning radius. Parking our 37’ fifth wheel was almost impossible to do without encroaching on surrounding sites or doing battle with a light pole or two (No escort to the site was available). Laundry, pool and showers were clean and adequate. Office was closed on weekends. Park advertised free WiFi however upon on arrival we were informed that they only had one WiFi “hook-up” spot in the office area (the person that checked us in didn’t seem very knowledgeable on the whole subject). While checking for wi-fi connections in the area, Coach Connect showed up. The desk person wasn’t aware of that and didn’t know if they had a password for guests to use. We could have paid to use Coach Connect by purchasing air time on our own account. We opted not to as we have a Verizon card and the signal was excellent. We called 2 months prior to our visit, confirmed the date of our stay and the rate. The rates were quite high, especially considering the fact that the park was definitely in off-season. At that time, we specifically inquired as to any special add-on or extra charges - desk person was adamant, there WERE no extra charges. Upon arrival, we were charged the daily rate less a Good Sam discount PLUS $3 per day for “less than 5 day stay”. That was the strangest daily add-on rate we’ve ever encountered. We addressed the confirmation that we had received earlier about no add-ons and the desk person simply said there was “nothing they could do”. Not good customer relations. The park is close to a small Tanger outlet mall and several fast-food emporiums, but that’s about it. Given the number of RV parks in the Casa Grande area, there is no need to go to this over-priced one. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed at this park for a week. The managers were very nice. Our site was level and very wide. We parked our Fifth Wheel on the gravel and had a concrete patio on one side and a concrete pad for our truck on the other. There were well established trees and the park was well maintained. We also used the pool and hot tub which was very nice, clean and heated. We got free WIFI. The only down side was we were parked near the road and it was noisy and not very scenic. We should have got a spot in the back of the park. There are a number of mobile homes in the park. Although there were a lot of pluses, we just didn't get that "resort" feeling, but not a bad place to stay for the price. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We don't normally stay in parks that are both RV and Mobile Home parks. But while in Casa Grande last year, we drove past this place and poked our heads in to check it out for a return visit. We stayed for about a week this year, and let me say Cottonwood Cove has changed our minds! We loved it! The clean, level, gravel sites are huge (they're designed for a mobile home, so an RV is no problem! ) with wide, long patios on one side and a separate driveway on the other. The streets are also very wide and it was no problem getting our 43' coach (with tag) in or out of the space. The pool area was beautiful, the park managers (on site) were very nice, and the park is full of large shade trees and mature plantings. How often do you get to stay in the desert in a space in the shade?!? We'd definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park at first glance looks like a parking lot but the staff are great. They have lots of activities planned during the week from the liars club meeting for coffee to outings to a casino or the weekly hikes. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Real nice park. Very wide streets makes maneuvering a 40' motorhome a breeze. WiFi worked real good at site 272. Well maintained level gravel sites with 50 amp service. Every site has a large concrete patio pad but no picnic tables. Plenty of parking space for the tow car. The facilities were maintained well and in good shape. We stayed here for two weeks and look forward to future visits. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We have a free gift visit for 5 nights so don't know what the rate would be, but this is a WH membership park anyway. (Some reviews for this place are on "Casa Grande RV Resort"). Would not want to pay much, it's a bit rundown and outdated. Registration clerks were quite rude and unhelpful, but some other workampers were nicer. The bathrooms were large and clean, and the pool was okay tho in need of paint- and warmer weather; only saw one person in it. Fitness room is a disgrace, but library and laundry room are good. Our gravel site was wide & level,with a concrete pad, no table. Some sites were not as wide or quiet. TV reception was poor, only one good station. Park is too cheap for cable or for upgrading the facilities, which is too bad since this may be the only true RV park in town. The others are mostly park models/mobile homes, and the fancy Palm Creek Resort is too $$$. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Was disappointed by the noise that is now all around this park. A lot of activities going on - but also the 'in crowd' did not make one feel welcome. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice and quiet campground, good size lots and cement pads. Stayed two weeks, went to one of the steak and chicken dinner. We were seated next to a window that allowed us to watch them cooking our food outside on the Barbeque. Were a little shocked when one of the steaks was dropped on the ground and watched as they picked it up an put it on the platter with the others and bought it in and served it. The other people at the table saw this also and we just couldn't believe it. Went to play Pokeno one night and found out what a group of money hungry ladies (we were playing for pennies) can do to a very fun game. It's a shame that even after people walk out during the game that they have know idea how unfriendly they are. Or maybe they don't care, they just want their click. Would not visit this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The sites designated for their members are decent and roomy. The sites designated for C2C and other memberships are the typical back in sites that leave little room for anything. The hook-ups and sewer connections are at the back of all sites, so plan ahead. There are no picnic tables. Unless this is your "home" camp, or you're a Western Horizon (WH) member, expect arrogant, abrupt, and rude treatment, especially if you are staying in the "low rent" rows assigned to C2C and other memberships. The only decent person I ran into was the one that was trying to sell me a Western Horizon membership. You are referred to this person to finish up the registration process when you check in if are not a WH member. The park "hosts" are less than helpful and quick to call you on it if you violate (even unknowingly) their park rules. However, it seems to be okay for them to ignore those same rules. My reservation was fouled up when I arrived, and continued to be fouled up. I was assigned a site and when I went to occupy it, it was already occupied. I returned to the office and after some amount of discussions (not quite an argument) about that site being empty, I was assigned the site next to it. The people occupying the first site were not scheduled to leave for a week. I was scheduled to leave on the 5th and one of the “hosts” came knocking on the 2nd at 11:10 a.m. (check out is 11:00 a.m.) and asked me why I hadn’t vacated my site. I am glad that the WHO chain is opting out of C2C and RAP so they can "make more room for their own". I would definitely not stay here again, even if I had the opportunity. Arrogant snobs, is the best term I can come up with. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This campground appeared to be more full residents in park models then RV's. However, they do have one area set aside for RV's with nice pull thru sites. The campground was clean and the sites fairly wide. We did not have to unhook our tow vehicle. No Wi-Fi at the site but that may be because we failed to ask them. We had all the services, 50 amp, sewer, water, cable. There is a nice dog run with grass for the pet we we really appreciate. We did not use the pool, laundry or shower facilities so no comment. However, everything appeared in good shape. We would stop here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Liked this place more than expected to, given that it's not really a RV park, but a big snowbird home full of park models and winter residents, and not that many RV sites. But the folks are nice and there are a lot of activities going on, plus the facilities are pretty good. Nice fenced-in dog run. Easy walk to stores and restaurants. Long pull-thru sites for short-term guests. Two heated pools; big shower room but a good walk from RV sites. Basic cable, wifi in clubhouse, Verizon air card and cell work fine. Passport America rate of 25% off in winter, 50% in off-season, but only for 6 nights and this is an Encore park with the stupid $3 daily resort fee. Too bad the feedlot smell is pretty strong at night but this is still a nice, convenient park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Gravel back-in site with good hookups. Roads were narrow and difficult to maneuver with a big rig. I would suggest you remove your toad even though they say you don't need to. Only negative was the sweet smells of nature from the feedlot to the southwest which, unfortunately, is the prevailing wind direction. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park is very well maintained and clean. There are a lot of permanent sites and the site we had was a back in and at least 50' wide. The only thing keeping this from a 10 was no cable TV and no table at the sites, although there was a large concrete pad for a table and chairs. This park is perfect for branching out to Phoenix and even Tucson, and is very close to shopping, golf, and eating out. We stayed here two weeks and would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice but very big park. Many sites are occupied by mobile homes. The hookups are well placed, and the park is very tidy and neat. Managers are very nice and helpful. If you don't mind being in a large crowd this is the park for you. Sites are
well mantained and level. We enjoyed our stay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Big over 55 resort. Half park models and rest MH/Trailers. It was off season so it was deserted. Great grounds and facilities. I did not rate higher as we were not given any info about the park or its facilities. Sites that are owned and are back ins are stone with cement pads. They are very nice. The pull throughs are a large parking lot with hook ups. They were great for an overnight. I'm glad they take overnighters but they do not really put out the welcome mat. During high season it probably is much friendlier. Wi-Fi is pay by day and strong where we were. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is an age restricted park designed for the active senior. If you want activities, golf, restaurant this may be the place for you. The sites are all back-in gravel with a slab next to the RV for a patio area. This is an ideal campground if you want to spend some time. It is not the best if you are looking for a quick one night stay with a pull thru. They have an excellent pet area with grass and fence. The facilities all are upscale and nice. We would camp here again if we wanted to stay for a week or longer. We camped here in a Motorhome.
One of the best RV Resorts by far. Lots of amenities and things to do. Sites are quite spacious. We stayed here on a special promotion. Would definitely stay here again. We were here for a week in December 2007 over Christmas and New Year. Great people and volunteers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a excelent park in Arizona, the only complaint is that when you spend the winter months there it tends to be a bit cliqueish, so if you are not in a group of friends it is hard to make them there, groups tend to come together and stay that way with no outsiders let in. Park is well run but very big and sometimes activities seem a bit crowed. This is a 55 plus park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Absolutely, without a doubt the best RV Park in America. We came for a night and now we are staying for the week. My DW wants us to stay a month. The grounds and amenities are like those in a high end resort by Four Seasons or Marriott. Each of these features was a "Best in RV America": golf, pool, jacuzzi, landscaping, laundry, restrooms, staff, cleanliness, all-around-nice, and I could go on and on. Just great! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park has many permanent homes and many RV sites. It is huge. The office staff was helpful. A ranger leads you to your site and helps you back in. All sites are gravel with a concrete pad. WIFI is available for a fee, and had a very strong signal. Golf course was closed due to overseeding time of year. No grass near sites and no picnic tables at the sites. Very pet friendly. A number of pools, spas, boche ball courts, horseshoes. Activity center has about 4 people working in there, so there would never be a shortage of things to do for the longer staying resident. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The best park we have ever stayed in. The only reason for not giving it a 10 is the WiFi service through Coach Connect was spotty. When we return I will get DSL line for same cost. Free phone for in-park use and receiving outside calls. Almost any activity you desire except trap shooting or sand volleyball. Large spaces and wide streets, monthly (winter season) craft sales and weekly dances are just a few of the extras. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This really is a 10 resort with every activity you can think of and the place is spotless. Plus the $15 golf is great, but, the Wi-Fi for the price is the pits. At 11 bps for 1890 sites is slower than a modem and you get dropped out all the time unless you use it a 3am and for such a high level resort you think they would have better service available for their quests. This is still the nicest place we have ever stayed on our journey across the United States heading east. They were very accommodating in getting us spot after a week for an additional month because of weather. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We loved this park. We booked for three months and stayed an additional 2 weeks. There is so much to do and everyone is so friendly. It was necessary to wear name tags when in the park facilities but that worked out great as you met so many people it was easier to remember names. We were in the pet section of the park and found that the dog parks within the park were well maintained and large. Having the capability to make a phone call between the sites (at no charge) was really convenient. Should we get back to Arizona we are sure to spend time here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Most of their sites are back in but they do have a few that are pull-thrus for overnighters. That's where we parked and it was between a nice grassy area with palm trees and the permanent small homes there. This space did not have cable. This park is beautiful, it looks like a 5 star hotel driving into it, with lots of grass, flowers, lakes, palm trees and lots of Christmas lights on the palm trees. One negative was at times a very slight smell of cattle. I don't know where they were, you couldn't see them nearby. We liked it there so much we stayed two nights instead of the planned one night and would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We used to winter in Mexico and stopped here on the way out 5 years ago. We have been annual residents since. We only spend the winters here because of the heat and summer in Oregon. Tennis is my passion and there is terrific group of around 100 players of all ability levels. There is nearly every activity and ammenity you could imagine. This is hands down the finest RV park we have ever found. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is really more of a (55+) mobile home community than a RV Resort but it's still the nicest resort in the desert. Beautifully manicured grounds and amenities galore, this park has plenty to offer. We lied about our ages to gain entrance and it's hotter than hades here in the summer months but overll enjoyable. If the park had concrete drives instead of gravel and free wi-fi, I would have rated it higher We camped here in a Motorhome.
Fantastic park. Everything you would want and then more. Rate shown is based upon monthly rates + Electric. Only one thing to complain about - the WiFi is poor, they claim to be trying for fix it, but saw little improvement over 3 months. Everything else is great. Park is spotless and landscaping is beautiful. Golf course (par 3) is in beautiful shape. Too many activities to keep up with. Would be an outstanding place to spend your winter. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This resort is just that, a true 4 star resort. If your looking for a campground, look elsewhere cause this isn't for campers. Extremely clean, vast amounts of activities and buildings that would give even some of the nicer hotels a run for their money. The RV'ers are very friendly and we made some great friends. Their sites are huge - 70 ft. long and 45 ft. wide with good electric and water. I cannot comment on the WiFi as I did'nt use it but neighbors reported it worked great. The downside is that the streets are not lit (only on the corners) and the sites can get dusty. If your someone who is looking for a place to stay a while, this resort is for you. I can promise you that you will find boat loads of activities from sewing to pottery to one of the countries best stocked and outfitted woodshops. It is a great destination resort. We had a ball here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is an outstanding resort-type campground, with lush landscaping around the golf course, and excellent maintenance, and with a vast array of activities. The facilities are all equivalent to a four-star hotel. Contrary to the previous poster, we were pleased that there were so many volunteers helping with the operations. This included volunteer greeters when we arrived after a long trip, and volunteer "rangers" who help you get parked at the site - and, of course, help make sure you don't run into things while parking. We are already planning to return next year, for a longer stay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
When you register you are presented with a 46 page rule book. They charge for everything including electricity. The place is run by volunteers. You have to wear a name badge everywhere. It is close to a prison mentality. Don't stay here in October because nothing is 'open'. The 18 hole course is all par 3s. It is not an Outdoor Resorts. Very disappointed. I stayed here from mid-October to mid-November. I will not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is the best RV park I've stayed in. Rate was actually $14 per night for 1st 5 nights, then increased to $25 a night. All sites are back in but a park employee escorts you to the site and helps to guide you into site. Park very clean and well maintained. Snow birds had left during my stay so most sites were not occupied. This is a 55+ park. They have a great executive golf course on premisis. All interior roads were paved and large enough to handle the largest rigs. This park will be hard to beat. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice large spaces. Many amenities. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We liked the security of the park. There is always an attendent at the gate stopping people from just coming in. They have separate areas for people with pets which we appreciated. Our only complaint is since they added the second 1000 sites, it seemed a bit crowded at times trying to use the facilities. Not sure of the nightly rate since we rented for a couple of months. Also, it is an over 55 park, I believe. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Excellent park with great amenities. Lot of park models, but still room for lots of RVs. Staff very helpful. Unbelievable nice park for only $20 a night. Verizon worked good here. Will stay here again! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park has all the bells and whistles. Rv parks need to be more than facilities. Taking your money at check-in, the lady is nice and polite. When you decide to move on, her attitude turns to resentment and anger. Nicest person in the park was the landscaper. This park is eliminating RV's. 90% is now park models. Plenty of other excellent parks in area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park caters to the seasonal & year round crowd. I estimate that more than half the units are park models. I found, as a younger (63) newcomer, I didn't fit in as much as I would have liked due to the socializing was amongst those that had been coming here for years. Plenty to do as they had excellent facilities with a large number of planned activities. Near a main railway line so it takes a while to get used to the rumbling & whistles during the night. From time to time, there is quite an odor from the dairy farms in the area. Some Pull-Through sites but seems to be for those that arrive early before their booked site is ready or short term-ers. We were charged the monthly rate for the month we spent here... not sure of the daily rate. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a 55+ park. Site are large, level & easy to to in to. Most are gravel, a few are paved. Roads are paved and wide. There are a few trees but they cause no problems. There are a lot of park models. There is a large clean laundry. Showers are clean. We liked having the instant telephone & cable included in the daily & weekly rate. They have lots of activities & entertainment in the winter. There is a security gate for which they give you a code to use at night when it is closed. There is a railroad track about 1/4 mile away, so you get some train noise. We will go back to this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is better described as a mobile home park with RV's allowed. All sites are gravel with no grass anywhere in park. Patios are small unless you are on favorites list and get extended size one. Owners of park models rule this park and definately do not make you feel welcome. Pets are left to be walked in a canal area subject to rodents and snakes. Staff in office leaves much to be desired, as if you are inconveniencing them, especially on weekends. There is no shade here so have your AC tuned up. We stayed 3 months since we had paid up front but will
not return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The friendliest park we have found in a long time. Very clean and much to do. Few pull
thru sites and are for short stays only. The instant phone at site is wonderful as is the full line of cable channels. Very quiet park. Has a pet section with pet walk. Gravel sites but concrete patios. Lots of park models but still more RV sites than park models. In town but has country feeling and away from the Interstate.Located half way between Phoenix and Tucson makes this a great park to see the attractions in both cities. A great winter park with very reasonable rates. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A winter retirement type community with several park models. Extra charge for cable tv and phone service. Lot is gravel w/concrete patio. Large lots, all back in. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We found this park by word of mouth. It is a owner/co-op park with each site either owned by the park, or individuals. Each site is about 40 ft wide by 60 ft long. Sites are very level, and all gravel, except each site has a cement patio and walkways. All streets are paved and wide. The park is about 1 mile from the Pinal County fairgrounds, and about 7 miles east of Casa Grande. It is out in farm country and other than the coyotes, very quiet. About half the park is park models, and all kept very clean and landscaped. We find the activities are geared to all adult ages, as the park is a 40 and over park. We will return the next time we are in this area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
