We are looking at campgrounds in the Apache Junction, AZ area for the upcoming winter. Canyon Vista seems to be popular. Does anyone know what last season's rates were for three or four month stays? The website does not show rates.
Thanks,

We paid $1,530.00 for three months last year. Cable service is $30.00 per month and our electric was approximately $60.00 per month. If you plan on staying at Canyon Vista's this winter, you better make reservations now or get on their waiting list. They were full the entire time we were there last year.
We stayed there last year, and enjoyed the park a lot. Found that it was a good location....far enough to be out of the city, but close to everything. Last years rates were:
Daily (incl elec) $36.00
Weekly (incl elec) $200.00
Monhly $540.00
3 Month $1530.00
4 Month $1990.00
5 Month $2487.00 (this is what we choose)
Annual $3550.00
The park was full last year so like "justlou" said, you should make reservations as soon as possible. Also, last year they announced that they wanted to switch from mostly RVs to 90% park models and they were selling a lot of them. Almost all the desert sites were taken, but there are lots of other sites that are nice. The lots are quite large compared to many other parks. Maintenance was good.
The pool is nice and the ballroom is adequate. The craft rooms are a little crowded, but workable. The woodshop is not very good as it is just an outside area fenced off with a roof....very crowded.
The people are very nice and there are lots of activities. As I said, we really enjoyed our stay there and would recommend it to others.

One more thing.......... The WiFi is very poor. Not bad early in the year, but when the park gets full, it becomes pretty spotty. The residents had a meeting with the management but were told they do not have any intention at this time of upgrading. Mediacom cable does offer a pretty good deal if you bundle cable and internet together ($59.00/mo)
We were fortunate and spent a couple of winters there after they first opened and before the big push for park models. We had a desert site both years and that made it special....
Bill, didn't you spend a few winters at Victoria Palms? We were at Llano Grande before moving to Arizona. I've noticed your posts in the past. We are spoiled to the likes of VP and LG so I appreciate your reviews on Canyon Vistas, hoping it is similar in style.
