Palm Creek in Casa Grande



Casa Grande is South of Phoenix on Hwy 10. It is roughly about an hour from the Phoenix airport (directions). It's a smaller town (population appx. 50,000), and a lot of people like it for this reason. Palm Creek RV resort is located on the East side of town, and you can't miss it from Highway 10 because of all the palm trees you see off in the distance. A five star resort, it is a beautiful place to vacation. I have a number of friends who call this home in the winter. For serious fans of Pickleball, this is the park for you.


I was there last weekend and took these pictures from the car window. The property pictured above is somewhat typical of the park models you'll find in PC. It was the landscaping that drew my eye to this property. We are in the desert, and the grass you see is probably artificial.


How about this RV setup. The good news, at the time of this writing it is for sale. Plan to spend about $240,000. The outbuilding you see is part of their property, so you get an idea how much space you'll have to enjoy. Space that won't come cheap, but for RVers who want something special, you have it here in spades.


Here's another example of carefully planned space with an motor coach for living in. These RVers pay annual fees just like park models, and the property upgrades are an extra investment, which could possibly be sold later if you decide to move, and can find someone to assume your annual fees. Here's the good news - if you do make the commitment, and keep up the annual fees, you won't find yourself being bumped for a park model. Not all parks think like this.
