ToddF Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 This is the perfect "place in the sun" for my snowbirding. It's running a bit cooler than normal, but still beautiful this time of year. Have been here 1 week and 6/7 days were sunny. Temps go up into the 60's (usually warmer). The mountains are a majestic backdrop. I've enjoyed biking everyday...many bike Lanes and dedicated multiuse trails. I'm not a mountain/dirt biker (yet) but there are many options in the greater metro area.For anyone interested, Cal-am resorts runs a Sept-Dec special which allows you to spend the 4 months in up to 3 of their parks for a reasonable rate. Encore is offering 3 months(prime season) to members for $1,245-$1,665 depending on the park. The LRT is within 1-2 mile's of many of the parks in the area. There has been very little wind.I love it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToddF Posted December 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Greenfield Village is one of the few condo parks in this area. I looked at a site with a "shed" in the pet section. The park has top notch common areas. Downsides are high fees ($550/Qtr), limited pet section (if you're a dog lover like I am), and tight spacing. It is a 55+ community...owners do rent their sites out which is a good way to try the place on for size. https://greenfieldvillage.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouserl41 Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 There are numerous places in the Tucson/Phoenix area all with great weather! We are over in Casa Grande which is a little less frantic than Phoenix. Enjoy! BnB 2009 Monaco Cayman DP 38' bnbrv.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Joyce Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 That is why after 15 years of fulltiming we bought a park model in Mesa and are now part-timers. It doesn't hurt the place we are staying has a very active quilting group and a long arm quilting machine that my wife uses and does a weekly monitoring stint. 2004 40' Newmar Dutch Star DP towing an AWD 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid, Fulltimer July 2003 to October 2018, Parttimer now.

scouserl41 Posted December 21, 2018 Report Share Posted December 21, 2018 If you like quilting, have you been to "35th Ave Sew and Vac" in Phoenix? We went to get a vacuum repaired but they have a huge quilting store!! BnB 2009 Monaco Cayman DP 38' bnbrv.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Joyce Posted December 21, 2018 Report Share Posted December 21, 2018 35th Avenue is the largest store for quilting fabric in the metro and we have been there many times and my wife even more. My wife buys as much as she can at Mulqueen's on Main Street in Mesa, since it is just outside the RV park and has a good selection. She has bought 2 sewing machines from them. They also handle vacuums. 2004 40' Newmar Dutch Star DP towing an AWD 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid, Fulltimer July 2003 to October 2018, Parttimer now.
