With the wealth of Arizona RV parks there is no reason not to head out into Arizona’s dramatic landscape. If you’ve never been to an Arizona RV resort, the invigorating contrast of the red rock and blue sky will be a pleasant surprise. Return visitors have a vast appreciation for the wide open red scenery that acts as backdrop for jutting monoliths and prickly cacti. At night, the galaxy opens up and blankets the desert in an intricate lattice-work of stars, the likes of which you may never find anywhere else. Alongside the sparkling Colorado River, the oasis in the desert, are two fantastic resorts that offer both luxury and location, two of the best indicators of great vacation destinations.

Lake Havasu RV Resort - Located near Lake Havasu and Lake Havasu City, Arizona this RV resort is a fisherman’s dream. Lake Havasu is home to many professional fishing competitions and boasts some of the best fishing around. Catch Bass, Crappie, Sunfish, Catfish, or perhaps even one of the elusive White Sturgeon that were stocked in the lake in the late 60’s. None of the Sturgeon have been caught yet, but they can survive for up to one hundred years so don’t count them out just yet!

Although this area is far from the drizzly, gridlocked streets of London, you can still visit the original London Bridge. Robert Paxton McCulloch, an American businessman, bought the bridge after the city of London deemed it unable to withstand the traffic of the city. The bridge was taken apart, brick by brick, and re-laid in Arizona. Capture the spirit of the bridge and visit the Olde English village that sits just beneath it. Have a pint and some fish and chips in one of the village’s restaurants and you will truly feel that you have been transported halfway across the globe.

Yuma Lakes RV Resort – In southern Arizona, close to the historic town of Yuma, this resort is swarming with life. Head into Yuma for some gun-slingin’ history and visit the Yuma Territorial Prison State Park, the most popular state park in Arizona. It was once the home of Arizona’s worst criminals and has caught the world’s imagination in movies, books, and television for decades since. Back at the resort, you can fish on the pristine lake stocked with Bass and enjoy peace and quiet to soothe your soul.

If you prefer a bit more action, the resort offers weekly caravans to El Golfo, a sister resort in Mexico, where white sand beaches stretch out along the glistening Sea of Cortez. Indulge in Mexico’s warmth, with a cold margarita in one hand and a fan in the other. Food lovers can treat themselves to fresh shrimp on the beach or a veritable smorgasbord in the restaurant/cantina. Later, if you feel up to it, you can work off those calories exploring the various sand dunes and fantastic trails that wind around the area.
