Snowbirds Quartzsite RV Camping- RV Camping in Arizona

Quartzsite RV camp - RV camping in Arizona

For many Snowbirds from Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest, winter means a migration to Arizona.



As a winter destination, there are few places more inviting than the Grand Canyon State.

Like many of the other western states, Arizona is a land of paradoxes. Deep canyons give way to rugged mountains. Ponderosa pine forests melt into arid deserts. Native American reservations dot a state with major metropolitan areas like Phoenix and Tucson. Oh, and did I mention the natural wonders scattered throughout the state?

Yes, Arizona has much to offer the RVing Snowbird.

Arizona is a Snowbird destination like no other. From eroded red rock formations to large urban centers, from the Grand Canyon’s stunning vistas to small mountain towns, from Old West legends to Native American and Mexican culture, and from professional sporting events to world-class golf—Arizona has it all!

Balmy weather in Arizona when the snow flies up north is the primary reason Snowbirds head to the Copper State is such large numbers, but the weather is not consistently warm in all regions of the state.

Snowbird roosts



Snowbird roosts are centered in the Phoenix, Tucson, and Yuma areas. These cities are magnets for Snowbirds, and RV parks have responded with highly organized activities and services.



Phoenix area

The largest concentration of Snowbirds is found in the Phoenix area, often referred to as The Valley of the Sun.





This is where Mesa, Chandler, Scottsdale, Sun City, Carefree, Tempe, Paradise Valley, Queen Creek, Peoria, Apache Junction, and numerous other cities are found.





Quartzsite

Any mention of Arizona and Snowbirds would be incomplete without mentioning Quartzsite, a tiny town on I-10 just 20 miles east of the California state line (Colorado River). Although it’s mostly a truck stop in the summer, Quartzsite is the best example of snowbird flight and its mercantile impact. Every winter hundreds of thousands of Snowbirds in RVs descend upon Quartzsite, with most of them camped on Bureau of Land Development (BLM) land in the desert surrounding the town. More than 100,000 recreational vehicles are spread out over 70 square miles. National Geographic has described Quartzsite as “the world’s largest parking lot”.

Often described as “$400,000 motorhomes towing $40,000 SUVs looking for FREE camping,” Quartzsite has been a rockhound’s paradise since the 1960s.
