Have you thought about where you’ll retire? Considering rising costs of living, or the toll of seasonal weather, you may not want to restrict yourself to where you currently live. It’s hard to make the most of your golden years if you’re housebound by snow and freezing temperature four months out of the year. Becoming a snowbird lets you migrate south for the winter every year to enjoy the mild temperatures of the Southwest. Here are some of the top reasons to spend your retirement at an Arizona RV resort.

They’re an affordable place to stay with flexibility.

When you’ve paid off your home, you may not be interested in selling your property. But purchasing a seasonal home brings a lot of stress and expense into your retirement years. When you buy a second property, you commit to an area of the country for the rest of your retirement.

An RV park in Arizona offers options for residents when they stay. You can park your own RV in a resort. Or, you can rent or purchase a park model if you don’t own a recreational vehicle. RV parks also offer options for how long you stay, from a single month or season up to the entire year.

RV resorts are an affordable way to become a snowbird and experience new parts of the country during retirement.

Join a community of fellow retirees.

When you leave the workforce, making and maintaining friendships becomes harder. Spontaneous social contact is vital to emotional and mental health at any age, particularly in retirement. If you live in the suburbs, it can be hard to find opportunities to socialize with other retirees.

At an Arizona RV park, you join an instant community of 55+ retirees. There are more opportunities to meet snowbirds from all over the country who have similar interests as you. People who are all at the same point in their life fill RV parks: those who have retired but are looking for new adventures and ways to stay active.

Get space to work on your hobbies.

One of the best things about retirement is the time to reconnect with hobbies and interests you may have given up earlier in life. But not everyone has space in their home for a woodshop or studio for arts, crafts, and dance. Instead of looking for a larger home for your retirement, you can reserve a lot or park models at an RV resort.

Lost Dutchman in Phoenix has over 15 thousand square feet of space for residents to engage in their favorite hobbies such as woodworking, dance, billiards, knitting and sewing, and more.

Discover new interests.

Even with extra free time during retirement, it can be hard to go out and discover new interests on your own. Being part of a 55+ community at an RV resort makes it easy to find your passion for new activities, such as:

  • Sports such as golf, swimming, yoga, baseball, and more
  • Hiking
  • Road trips around the Phoenix area
  • Off-roading with ATVs and UTVs
  • Bingo and cards
  • Computers

Finding new ways to spend your free time in retirement is easy when surrounded by a group of friends at an RV resort.
