Blue Star RV Resort
Blue Star RV resort is for guests who are 55 years of age or older. As such, it’s a peaceful and relaxed RV park. The park is near Apache Junction and provides guests with both spectacular desert scenery and mountain adventures. The park is pet-friendly too, so even the fur children can tag along. Those guests interested in history can check out the Apache Trail tours or Air Force museum, both of which are nearby.
The park’s spaces provide either 30-amp or 50-amp service, and there is plenty of room for slide-outs. RVs up to 87 feet can fit in the spaces too. The park provides mail service so that guests who are there for a while can receive letters, send postcards, and maybe even send packages of souvenirs to family and friends. The swimming pool is a great way to wash the dust off after hiking a desert trail.

Just off highway 60 in Apache Junction, this park is definitely more resort than it is a campground. With a recreation complex reaching over 45,000 feet and plenty of nearby shopping plazas, restaurants, casinos, and national parks, you’re guaranteed to have an unforgettable trip!
This massive park offers everything but the kitchen sink- a music room, arts and crafts classes, dinner shows, indoor and outdoor pools and spas, a number of different sports, Sunday worship services, a library, an exercise room, and organized tours are just the tip of the iceberg! With so much to offer, and being one of the highest rated Arizona RV parks, the weekly and monthly rates are a steal. It’s no wonder why Superstition Sunrise is one of the top long term RV parks in Arizona!
“The residents, security, and staff are friendly, the amenities are great, and overall, this seems to be the ideal place to retire, or at least to visit to avoid the snow.” – Jacob, Google reviews

McDowell Mountain Regional Park is a huge park located to the north of Fountain Hills. It features extensive trails that are frequented by hikers and mountain bikers. This park features a large RV campground.
Very little light pollution from the Phoenix area blocks out your view of the stars at night from McDowell Mountain Regional Park. Unlike many campgrounds, this park features full RV hookups. You are encouraged to bring your horses.
“McDowell Mountain is undoubtedly my favorite Regional Park in Arizona. We’ve been camping there since 2011, and I love that the campsites are spaced so far apart! Being up on the plateau north and above Fountain Hills and to the east of the mountain range means that you don’t get a lot of light spill-over from the city. The park is a mecca for mountain bikers, but it is fabulous for hikers as well. On a great day, you can hike for hours in the desert in complete solitude.” – Rosalind, Google Review
