Yuma, Arizona was about a four-hour drive from Tucson. It was only an overnight stay for us, but it would be our last night before being back in California again. Our house in San Diego had been vacant for over a year, so we planned on staying at Santee Lakes for a bit while we got the house up and running again and time to unload the Airstream.
The Palms RV Resort, Yuma, Arizona
This was our first time staying at The Palms. Our site had 50-amp electric, good water pressure, sewer, and internet.
They had a couple of pools and a hot tub. Their gym was perfect after being on the road. There was also a bar that served food. We would stay here again.
Santee Lakes RV Resort, Santee, California
From Yuma, it was about a 3-hour drive to Santee Lakes. This was our third stay here.
Overall, we like this park because they have ample areas to walk Jake, the sites are large, 50-amp electric, sewer, good water pressure, and internet. What we don’t like is there can be a lot of long-term families with kids playing in the streets and into our site. The noise can be excessive. The place is always full and on weekends there are additional people who come to fish.
It was nice to see our house again. Fortunately, there was no major damage after a year since we last checked in on it. Prior to that it was a rental property. Never the less, there will be an incredible number of small projects that need to be done over the next few months. The yard was in need of a lot of work. We unloaded the Airstream. While away, we kept water and electricity active, but needed to restart Internet and trash service. The Airstream will go to Temecula for more service work before we can take off again on our next adventure. Our first night back there were deer on the hillside. We rarely see them.
