Mesa Spirit RV Resort

Nice age qualified Encore resort. Great pools and most everyone driving slowly. Lots of friendly people walking around. A little annoying to have residents around that cut through the spaces and walk around your motorhome, but I realize I'm parking in their way for how they typically get around. If you don't cut through spots, it can be a very, very long walk around the maze of roads just to get to a unit you can see the back of.

They say they are dog friendly, but that wasn't our experience. Yes, they have many off leash dog parks, but this is a massive RV park, and we had to walk 2 blocks (a good 5 minutes) to get to one. Dogs aren't allowed to piddle on any of the sites, not even unused sites. Hard to take 2 small dogs, at 7:00 in the morning, all the way to the park before piddling. |Everyone was friendly, but because the sites are packed in tight we wouldn't stay here again. We must not be the right clientele for this type of park. We much prefer state parks.

I needed a place to stay reasonably close to an appointment for wheel alignment. The park is in a good location, clean and has friendly hosts. They have a lot of activities going on and the pool and hot tubs are open until 11PM.

When we checked in, the man who was escorting us to our site was NOT friendly. We checked in at 530pm, he made the comment that he would only bring us to our site due to having a van, if it was a camper we would have had to stay at on of the spots in front of the office, HIS words. No, sir I will not be. Then when we got to the site, there was a grump old man in a tiny home next to us that was upset he had to move his golf cart out of our site and into his actual spot. So we additionally had to wait longer until we could back into our site. Once in the site, we weren't given information that would be needed for our stay. Its pretty important to let people know you close the restrooms early, for the night. What park actually closes bathrooms? The place is also a maze and needs more signage

They love to send out violation notices. Check out 'Chain of neighbors of Mesa Spirit' on Facebook. 3 hot tubs, but only one jet per hot tub. Empty lots are full of weeds. They have wrapped the metal pool rails, but they need to replace them because there shredded and look ratty.
