AZ: Butterfield RV Resort and Observatory

- John and Kathy Huggins - Sioux Falls, SD
(Best Work Experience in Eight Years of Work Camping)





This park is in Benson, AZ just off I10 and basically in town. A Safeway and Ace hardware are less than a 5 minute walk and the Walmart is about 10. We spent the winter of 2011/2012 workamping there.

We have been on the road working for over 8 years and this was the best experience we have had. The managers are knowledgeable and eager to help make your experience a good one.

Although there is no pay, the benefits are excellent with free propane, a $100/mo allowance for electric, free entry into all paid park events, 3 days on and 3 days off, and only 6 hour workdays.

The park is pretty modern with many pull-thru sites and back-in sites for the workampers. All sites have 50 amp electric.

The surrounding area has lots of interesting things to see and do. Tucson is only 40 miles away. Bib-box shopping is in Sierra Vista about 20 miles away.

You forgot to mention the highway and trains are right on top of the park. Trains run almost every 30 min ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT!
If you are sensitive to noise, this is not a place to go or work!
