RoVer's Roost SKP Co-Op Park

You need to be a member of Escapees to overnight in this park. Weekly rate is $110 plus electric which includes full-hookups. Daily rate is $20 for full-hookups. Laundry was very reasonable - $1 for washer/$.25 for dryer for 20 minutes. When we were there the first part of March, there were lots of activities planned. This is a very welcoming park. We loved that they even had a paper shredder! The park is about 8 miles outside of Casa Grande where you can find grocery stores, coffee shops, shopping centers, and more. AT&T was 1-2 bars LTE, no Wi-Fi available, and several Over the Air TV channels (English). Our hot spot with a MyFi antenna gave us a decent speed. We would stay here again.

A predicted winter storm (which in this part of AZ means high winds and possibly rains) had us move closer to Tucson a few days earlier than planned and we needed a place to hang our hat over the weekend. What we found was yet another very nice and quiet SKP Park full of incredibly friendly folks. This is apparently the oldest SKP coop park so the sites are pretty small by modern standards. For some reason the residents have not done much to landscape their sites over the years so there is no privacy, no shade and no “cute factor” to any of the sites. We stayed in the boondocking section which costs about $5 for the first night with the second night free! That’s not a lot to pay for a safe and level site. The park is very clean and well maintained. There are no amenities such as a pool but there is a clubhouse where there is something going on almost every day. It is possible to rent one of the full service sites based on availability when the owner of the site is not in the park. Verizon Internet was very fast.

Beware upon entering the park there is an extremely sharp right turn (almost a U-turn) so I would recommend unhooking any TOAD before entering the park. Fortunately, there is a perfect spot on the left side of the road shortly after you exit I-8. The road in front of the campground is not very busy making access to this unhooking area very easy.

Was passing thru and thought I would check out another Escapees park. First thing I noticed was the area is in a farm location. With that comes the periodic smell of cow fertilizer. Not horrible but a waft every so often. Possible it is only during the spring like when I was there. Not much you can do about that either.
If you are coming in from the interstate be aware you really need to take the turn wide as you need to basically make a u turn to go to the office. I missed it and had to go down another road and walk to the office. Again not horrible but just a heads up. My site was decent enough and they do escort you to the location. Roads are all paved and this is nice albeit they are pretty narrow. Cell service was decent and I had no problems with connecting and streaming. it is not that far from town and plenty to do there including lots of restaurants and shopping.
