Orchard Ranch 55+ Resort

We booked a month, the price reflects that. Awesome!!!! Good cell service. Free wifi in library. Extensive exchange library. Showers great. People both staff and residents wonderful.
My only poor comment would be access to local amenities. There is a Maverick gas station near by however every thing else is about 8 to 15 minute drive or more. Definitely not walkable.

This is our second stay at Or hard Ranch.
Both times the staff has been extremely friendly, helpful and efficient. The grounds are basic and not luxurious by any means but they have great amenities, including great pickleball courts. And everything is kept spotlessly clean. No matter where I am in the facilities Juan, the friendly maintenance guy, comes through to chat up everyone and spread some cheer, and leave the area thoroughly cleaned.
The sites are the biggest of any RV resort we've ever seen.
Some areas we'd like to see improved:
It makes it inconvenient when the office is only open M -F when we are traveling and needing to make or change reservations 7 days a week.
WiFi at the campsites would be helpful.

We are here 4 nights in late June, so the shade trees are greatly appreciated. This is very well run 55+ park with a mix of mobile homes, tiny homes, full time RV sites, with several short term sites. Paved streets with gravel parking sites, laundry, exercise room, pool, etc. Access is right off Hwy 69 but the road noise is not bad. We will definitely look to stay here next time we are in Prescott Valley.

Above price reflects a pro-rated 30 day stay in May 2022.
Hard to really complain about the park in general. Stayed in the "lower" portion, right behind the pickleball courts which was great. Love, love, love pickleball. Level, gravel sites with ample room to fit any sized rig. Getting into and leaving the park was a snap.
However...... The site's electric meter was not operational, so the park decided to charge us a flat rate of $50. On its face, that's not bad..... for perhaps June, July or August in Prescott. Likely somewhat pricey for May when we were there. I could have easily overlooked this but.....
We reserved for May, June and July back in March. Paid a deposit was sent via email all the prices (which were different for each month). Checked in on May 1 and paid for the month up front (fine) and was given approximately 8 pages of park rules (no problem). However...
On May 21 I got a call from the office informing me that I would have to go to the office that day to pay them $60 for background checks for myself and the wife. Something about folks staying more than 30 days had to have a check done. I had not been informed of this back in March when the reservation was made, nor at the time of check-in on May 1 nor is there any mention of this in the pages of rules I was given on May 1. Was simply told they screwed up by not telling me any of this, but too bad -- I now get screwed by their screw-up. No attempt by anyone in management to remedy in any way their screw-up.
I was certainly willing to fill out the paperwork for the background checks, but since there was no mention of this I did not think I should be charged to have the checks done. Especially since I had already been there 21 days. Seemed a bait-and-switch to me.
They said "pay, do the checks or leave after 30 days."
We left after 30 days.

This 55+ Senior Resort is mostly park models and nice mobile homes (single and double wide), with some seasonal sites. Call ahead via phone to reserve a site well in advance of arriving here. Orchard Ranch is growing in popularity, especially for Phoenicians who want an affordable second home in the Prescott area. This is a very nice park, and you'll need to make a reservation well in advance. Enjoy!
