The Scenic Road RV Park — Local services in Quartzsite

January 15 to February 15, 2024 As a full-time motorhome dweller, who is always on the move as a snowbird the first week of October prior to the arrival of winter in South Dakota, I usually head to and homestead at desert areas in Arizona. However, if temperatures in these areas get too chilly causing me to constantly refill potable propane tanks or my tow vehicle need repairs, I tend to move inland to Quartzsite AZ to found available full-service hook-up at Quail Run RV Park, my emergency go-to hang-out place, until I can hit the road again.

After leaving Georgia on January 8th, I found myself dodging tornado warnings, dealing with rainstorms, sleet, dropping temperatures, frozen tanks, including frozen water in my toilet bowl during my return drive to Quartzsite. Because I had run out of propane and could not find a refill place on or near my travel route; I knew I had potential frozen tank problems. Upon arrival in Quartzsite on January 15, 2024. I drove straight to Quail Run my emergency go-to hang-out place and found it filled with travelers. Upon stopping at Quail Run Propane Station to refill my outside tank and three potable tanks I was greeted by Jim, who usually do propane refills.

Now where are you headed, he asked? I just returned from Georgia; I have a frozen tank problem. So, I called your check-in office to see if there was a place I could hookup until I thaw out and can get repair service but was told the park was full. So, I will homestead at Hi Jolly until I can find a park with full-hookup, I replied. Hang on let me call the other Jim next door. After a brief conversation with Jim next door at The Scenic Road RV Park; my Jim at Quail Run said, “Go next door, Jim has a place for you, he said.”

Upon my arrival at The Scenic Road RV Park, I was greeted by Jim; a friendly, smiling, professional park manager, who knew how to solve problems. I told Jim about my travel experience, as well as my potential frozen tank problems. No worries, I’ve got a few places I can put you for a while. Also, we have our own RV Service Repairman here; his name is Jefferey. This is his card. Just call him, he will come, Jim said.

Once I was settled into a full-hook up space where I planned to stay for a month. The next morning while rearranging my sewage pipe, I noticed water leaking from my Always Hot Water System door. When I opened the door, I was hit by a flood of water. I rushed inside and called Jefferey, who immediately arrived at my motorhome and discovered my Always Hot Water System had split in half causing the flood of water. Like Jim, I found Jefferey to be friendly, professional, ready to tackle and repair any problem. Immediately after taking pictures of my system, Jefferey ordered the new replacement which was installed three days after his visit.

The only thing that made me a little nervous during my stay at this park was the deep desert wash that ran from the east to the west behind my motorhome. Because my dog is a 75-pound rambunctious one-year old who recently discovered chasing rabbits is fun. I kept picturing him in the wash which was too deep for me to get him out since I can’t lift him above my waist; Therefore, the only time I went outside was for my dog to potty.

Amenities includes Full-hookups, Club House, Female/Male bathrooms and showers, laundry room, personal patio, and two large trash dumpsters that are regularly emptied. I found permanent residences at the park not to be as friendly as travelers. The monthly rate is in line with other RV Parks.

I will stay at this RV Park again...

I live in The Scenic Road RV Park in Quartzsite Arizona in the winter. I looked at some other parks which were a little cheaper (honestly not much cheaper and some more expensive) but the quality of the managers makes Scenic Road the obvious choice. The quality of the park is excellent but I think that is due to the quality of the managers. Jeff, the owner, has chosen well and he is often here. The park is very clean and well graveled. You appreciate the gravel when it pours rain. There are always managers on site during the season. Cass and Jim are in the office or on the grounds 5 days a week and Ann Marie and Max are here the other two days. I have received so much help from all these managers from ground guide for backing into my space to advice about water problems and propane. When there are no covid restrictions, they organize fun activities. I look forward to future years of these activities. The park has a place to wash your car, your dog, your cloths and yourself. The bathrooms and showers are always pristine. I’ve been here twice but this is my first season. It will certainly be the...

I highly recommend this wonderful place. There is not a negative thing I can say. Well organized laudary. Even if you lose a sock, it will be recovered for you with "looking for a mate" clothespins on a wall plaque, so creative. Wish I would have gotten a picture. They have a separate laudary room for your dog bedding and a dog wash for 3$. So nice not to have to wash your clothes with dog hair. (I have 3 lol) There is a nice dog walk off the beaten path, or you can just walk your dogs in the park. Site is kept very clean. I enjoyed my stay very much. And Cass is so helpful with any questions you may have. I will diffently be back. Oh and BTW the rates are very reasonable. 😊

Update. 5th year staying here while passing though Quartzsite. Still awsome. Gets better every year. Jim is so kind and helpful. Thank you for taking in the crowd I brought this time 7 of us. See you next...
