Meridian RV Resort, Apache Junction, Arizona


For the next week or so we will be staying at Meridian RV Resort in Apache Junction, Arizona. This is a private, age 55+ RV resort (over 200 sites), but they do allow a few RV’ers under 55 to stay, since legally they can allow up to 20% of their spots to be rented to those of us less than 55 years of age. Meridian RV Resort is easily accessible off Hwy 60 and is close to many area attractions, as well as major stores like Walmart, Home Depot and Costco. The resort itself is very well maintained. All the roads are paved with each site having a concrete patio and groomed pea-gravel for the rigs. Just like the well maintained grounds, Meridian RV Resort offers a beautiful and complete club house. It includes a private and well stocked library, a computer room with four guest computers, a large laundry room (12 washers and 12 dryers), billiards room, card room, general purpose room, and a beautiful pool and hot tub area that has views of the nearby mountain tops. Meridian RV Resort also has a complete exercise room with various machines and free weights. All these facilities are new and are well taken care of. It doesn’t stop there - Meridian RV Resort also provides many activities and events, a phone for free long-distance calls, two fenced and grassed dog parks with agility toys, and recycling. Also, the water pressure is great! (It’s the little things, ya know!) The downside to this park is that their free WIFI is not reliable. The more people who use it, the slower it gets - very early in the morning it is fast, but quickly becomes unusable, which is frustrating.

The Internet issues aside, this is a very nice park, and we look forward to our time here and it is definitely on our “come to again” list when we’re in the Apache Junction area. This will be a great base for all our upcoming adventures in Phoenix and the surrounding area.
