Bowling alley??? what??? WOW this place has EVERYTHING you could ever want!!!!! We may have to wait a few years to visit though lol!!!! Nice tour, friends!!! Safe travels!!!
It certainly was pretty peaceful during our visit but I bet when it's full in season it's a different story. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.
Dave you can count well, blue ribbon worthy for sure! Nice video, great tour, didn't see one other person in any of the buildings, just bike riding! Enjoy seeing the facilities here in Yuma. We stay out in the Foothills not in a park, we rent a private lot, but there sure are a lot of RV Resorts here and they certainly fill up during the winter. Safe travels!
I'm just glad I didn't have to count any higher lol! At one time we looked at a new are in the foothills and considered buying a lot. It was new maybe 4 or 5 years ago, but we didn't. Carefree has Pickleball on site so that makes it handy for us. Thanks for stopping in!
Good Sunday morning Dave & Diane! The only thing I got to see in Yuma [during my trucking days] was the vegetable and fruit fields where I sat for hours on end waiting for the workers to bring ‘my load’ to where we were waiting for so long. I can hardly wait to see the all places I missed out on before once I go full time! That is one HUGE rv park! Whoa! Thanks for sharing! Safe travels! ~Jim~
It certainly is a pretty big park. We have mostly stopped in on the shoulder months so it's been pretty quiet, the way we like it LOL!! I imagine you just "drove by" lots of stuff during the working years.
@@daveanddianethrowingcautio5707>Yeah, ‘driving by’ was pretty much my only option most of the time due to always being on a tight schedule…but, it seemed no matter what time I had to arrive to load or unload I always sat for hours before I got to do either one. 🤬 Hence, MY question, “what was the tight schedule for to start with?” (actually it was dispatchers lying to drivers just to make themselves look good to the customer). I’m sure glad I haven’t and don’t deal with all that crap anymore! Lol! Have a great week coming and safe travels!
Hi Joe. I normally try to pick times when people are not out and about to video in an effort to not make anyone uncomfortable but there wasn't a lot going on during our stay. Thanks for stopping in!!
Great video Dave, you showed me everything I know you to know. I think I'm going to stay there this year for at least one month problem is I can't get no 1 to answer the phone. Are they even in business this year?
The small car makes it very nice while touring in small towns or touristy spots. Plus Diane does not like driving the truck so it provides freedom for her to get away on her own.
Thanks for the tour and all the info!! Just curious as your method of madness for your stays. I know you guys were in Quartzsite for a while so wondering why you didn't go straight to your mainstay Winter resort (after Quartzsite) that you really like? Maybe just break up the monotony a bit so to speak? Thanks again!
On this go around we had a week to kill after Quartzsite and Yuma was sort of,,, SORT OF in the middle and we had friends in the area so it just fit in. We probably could have got into our winter spot a week early but we were in no hurry.
They do not provide picnic tables and don't allow wood fires. Not a big deal to us, we carry our own chairs and we Carry a Fire in a Can fire pit that is great for parks like this.
It has certainly been talked about. We really like the resort we are in now "not Carefree" but Sun Resorts owns the land and we would own the house with no control of constant raising lease costs. If we were rich I guess we wouldn't care but we are not so we have to think about that. I think the answer would be yes IF we found something that we could own both the land and home.

I know, a bowling alley!! Isn't that crazy. And it's well used to. You young folks can come visit LOL!!!
Such a beautiful and Peaceful place

Good information Dave & Diane, appreciate it very much.
You are welcome, We are happy to hear that it was helpful.

Glad you enjoyed it!! Thanks for the comment.

Great video as usual definitely looks quiet there only saw two people must be early thanks for sharing safe travels

Wow! That place is loaded with amenities!
They certainly have enough to keep a person occupied during a stay.
Wow 🤩 that’s a really nice one 😎
When we go through Yuma we like staying there.
Great video Dave, you showed me everything I know you to know. I think I'm going to stay there this year for at least one month problem is I can't get no 1 to answer the phone. Are they even in business this year?
I think you should enjoy it there. I'm sure they are still in business but maybe because it's summer they are on short hours but thats no excuse.
Good video 😀 why do have an extra vehicle when you have a truck to tow your rig 🤔

I love your recliners wondering if you could give the brand please?

I don’t see any picnic tables or fire pits. Must not allow them? Looking for a place to snow bird.

Hi did you get the wifi in your trailer from your site in carefree.
Hi Kathy. We carry a Verizon Hot Spot MiFi with us for our internet. It's just far more reliable than trying to use campground wifi we have found. .
Do you and Diane see yourself buying into a 55+ community once you get off the road?

Lots of amenities. But looks very drab.
Yes, drab is a very good description. That holds true at many of the Arizona spots, lots of brown.
