- Today I wanted to share some of our favorite spots where you can escape this Winter and get out of the cold in your RV. The overarching strategy is to get south but we have gone from California to Florida and these are the areas we have enjoyed the most.

I grew up in Apache Jct Arizona. The springtime in the desert is spectacular! Especially after a wet winter. So many desert plants come alive with blossoms.
We just returned from Patagonia Az. Great state park to stay in, the lake is amazing, and there is some of the best bird watching in the state.
As a snow plow driver, I wish I could go south for the winter. However that day will come.
I moved here to the Seattle area to escape the cold new England winters and hot summers, though we do get the occasional snow storm, it stays mostly in the 40s and 50s all winter. We settled on Whidbey Island, where there is a rain shadow created by the Olympic mountain range, keeping us dry during the wet winter season. Though the shorter days is difficult. I'd like to head south to Arizona or So Cal for more light in the winter, now that I'm older.
That is what we do and come back mid April
Great video. We just spent 2 weeks at Saddle Mountain. Beautiful, remote and safe. Thank you for the other spots.
My biggest concern with some of these private Parks are prices. We just started full time literally 2 weeks before the price of diesel went thru the roof! It changed everything we had planned. And Covid has some State Parks price gouging also if you're a non resident 😔 Wyoming is one of those States. It didn't break us but we had to change our plans drastically so that didn't happen. Even a major investment in solar for our rig so we didn't need to rely on full hookups as much . That was an expense we didn't plan on. No this year it won't pay for itself but it will over the next few years. We can mow pull Into a rest area and have full power without a generator even run an AC for a few hours if it's really hot out. We wanted to visit Texas this year but we headed straight for Quartzite to save some $. Thanks for the information we might see some of these places next year if diesel prices don't get crazier . An EV truck to tow a 5R is far from a reality . One day hopefully. Quartzsite has plenty of charging stations available if they make a 3/4 or 1 ton EV truck? With at least a 300 mile range on a full charge. I'll be one of the first to buy one 👍👍👍👍
I visited Quartzsite last month for the RV show. I knew there were a lot of RVs there but, until I drove through one of the LTVAs, I had no idea just how many. We'll begin the snowbird thing in a couple of years but will seek out other, less densely populated areas in Arizona and southern California. Thank you for another great video!
Great video, you gave me some ideas to check out. We use Yuma as a home base, as our friends own a lot we can use. We just returned from two months in San Carlos , Sonora , Mexico, which was very nice also.
You are right about Manasota Key. I'm here now and there are lots of nice beaches to choose from!
We just stayed at Quartzsite, which I probably would not revisit, and Picacho Peak State Park, which I highly recommend!!!
Another awesome video with great information, I left WI in January to get away from the winter weather mostly taking Route 66 to Quartzsite AZ. I wondered around AZ for a little over a month & making my way through Texas now. Today I'm in Magnolia Beach TX (49° & rain) until next week when it's 70° & sunny, then slowly head back to WI. Thank you for sharing your experiences & knowledge.
I live on Whidbey as well, but not in the winter, too overcast and damp and cold. So CA, Borrego Springs, or AZ, Lake Havasu, lots of options
Absolutely fantastic!!!
Excellent post this is exactly what I needed
Thanks for the video!! 👍👍
Thanks for the great info!
I'm always looking for great places to check out in the Winter. Great video!
Try Detroit it’s a lovely place. 😁
Thanks!
We are leaving in Alberta Canada. Another five months and we will see the earlier spring here too!
Meanwhile it sucks soooooo bad imo! Oh it could be worse, could be in saskatchewan or how about depressing BC with the constant cloud n rain season. Sooo sick of winter. 🙁🍻
Hi! 👋 New subscriber. 😀 Thank you for the review of the top 5 places to winter in an RV. We are still part-timers, but we are already making loose plans for when we retire and hit the road in a few years. What is your all-time favorite campground in your favorite winter getaway state?
We are in central TX for the 3rd winter in a row. We fail at snow birding. 😂 Good reason though, our grandbaby is here.
Love the Palm Springs area. The oasis there is so amazing. We took a horseback trip there a couple of years ago. So cool in the middle of the desert.
Horseback ride sounds great through there.
@@AllAboutRVs It is.! You and and the family should go next time you’re there.
Me too -heading there soon 🌴☀️
I keep trying to talk the wife into trading the truck and travel trailer in for a sailboat ⛵.
We could really escape the cold for fun in the sun in the Caribbean.
That sounds fun, and a whole new set of skills to learn.
For those of us with winter capable campers and love of cold, could you do winter favorites? Not concerned about skiing, but snowmobiling, forested hikes, even ice fishing.
Sure. Detroit!
Lived in the north for the first 55 years of my life. Other than pictures, I hope I never see snow in person ever again.
Colorado, Nebraska, Utah, northern Arizona (Flagstaff) and Northern California
Baja Baby!
Hey, let me know next time you're in my town of St. Augustine
Nice video.
Thanks!
Which oasis were you referring to? Looks like there are a few in the area but some look better than others. Loved your footage!
Well Florida is a little far for us in Washington State by RV so we head to Az and Southern California (while we can before Cali bans RV’s altogether) 🤷♀️🚌🇺🇸🌴☀️
Seams like they are heading that way.
Cali should fall into the ocen
Hello, we are Acoucou Battery. Really enjoyed your video, your videos are very useful for our RV users and we would like to ask a question on behalf of our users? How should I choose a battery for my RV?
planning 4 rv trips a year is work enough. i like to rest in the winter...lol
3:04 Hey! Coronado Bridge!
Love Coronado.
@@AllAboutRVs I was stationed in Coronado at North Island Air Base back in the late 70s. Spent a lot of time in Coronado down to Imperial beach back then and the Amphibious base of course.
Great state of Florida? Last time there I spent more time stuck on the highway. Make sure you have a full tank of fuel.
Panhandle is a different place!
I'm in Quartsite right now come on down , everybody is leaving.
I figured it was clearing out a bit.
You should go now. Why not?
Florida??? 😂
Definitely not Texas. They can't even keep the electricity on every year. Lol. Nothing wrong with northern winters. Love snowmobiling and our beautiful summer temperatures. When those snowbird southern locations are sweat boxes. 😜🤪😜🤪
I would not be caught dead in Florida.
