BEST Van Life Camping: Cheapest Rent Ever Near Tuscon, Arizona

[@christyeichhorn5333]

The fact that you provide a service for poor people is amazing.

[@vincentrvlife2393]

Michelle did a great job with paint and decorating! Thanks to both of you for providing nomads a safe and affordable place!

[@sandeedobberstine5591]

This man has made a huge effort for his community. Wishing him all the best!

[@mountainmedium111]

This man is what everyone should be! What a wonderful couple, beautiful place, and all of us on SS can afford it! Wonderful! 💖💖

[@anns1921]

We need more places like this everywhere. Not everyone (especially me) wants to live in the heat or the desert. Such amazing people. I wish them lots of success.

[@greyangelpilot]

If more small business owners could reflect his doctrine/values, the world would be a better place ! Thanks Jim & Michelle & Bob for promoting such a genuine couple & their venture !

[@monicaramirez51015]

Exactly 👍👍👍👍👍

[@aprilburnett333]

It's beautiful here and everyone takes care of our living spaces and the desert. Everyone's nice and helpful. There is always something going on here. It's a wonderful community with a strong bond. Looking forward to my years here! Thank You So Much for Everything you do Jim and Michelle.

[@nmr6988]

thank you for posting! i was hoping to hear from some of the residents.

[@dhanagunter5893]

I've never been here, but the first time I saw Bob and Jim's video, I fell hard for this place. If I never fulfill any of my bucket list items, the one place I want to head is here. My husband liked the idea too.

[@leananglesensor]

These people lack integrity ,this video is a complete ruse ,major fail on bobs part to promote this buisiness

[@EarlyIronAddict427]

Amazing find ! Thank you very much. All of you. Hope it’s available for me when I’m ready. Been thinking about selling out and buying a camper. Retired last year but early so don’t have much money but feel life is to short to not be happy 👍🏻✌🏻

[@mortimerebiniser3716]

About the same time this video was recorded I stayed at caballo, I only signed up for a weeks stay because of the weather, it was sunny, but the wind & cold air was disturbing. When it warmed & the wind died down some daily, I decided to pay for a years stay, but was told that they had a rule that you had to be self contained or you couldn't stay there. They have two buildings with toilets & showers, two dump sites for waste, & a fresh water supply outlet. I have 21 gallons of fresh water, a 1800 watt jackery solar generator with 400 watts of solar panel, & a 1800 watt gas generator for electrical backup. I met many people there who went out of their way to make me feel welcome & wanted & needed, but was turned away because I didn't have a holding tank for black & gray water. I was very disappointed after traveling 1400 miles for the experience.

[@alttransport3445]

In the first video , the owner said van dwellers were welcome. Not anymore I guess ,even though they have bathrooms,showers.

[@leananglesensor]

Just as well ,the owners lie

[@nancycain4434]

Bob I'm happy to see you back at the ranch .I fell in love with that place in your 1st video and I plan on making it my future home when I become a nomad in the summer of 23 . Jim and his wife are wonderful people .I just hope that they have full hook up for me .It sounds like your 1st video helped them out tremendously.

[@matthewknight5641]

I'm an over er the road truck driver. My wife travels with me always. I've been looking for something like this for years. I have a 93 model holiday rambler camper with a large solar power system. I pull it with a 2012 dodge1500. I'm looking forward to coming to this community if they will have us. It would be great to have this as our community

[@roseannarabia6461]

I love this couple, Jim and Michelle seems so humble and genuine. I wish I was able to get my van in time so I could get a place there. Maybe when I ready to go a place will be open. 🤞

[@deannapatschke-mullally8400]

This is exactly what my teenage son and I need and what I've wanted for years. A community exactly as described, Especially Now, in these insane times and Now, in my personal life. I will very likely be contacting you tomorrow! So random I came across this video! Are there other families with kids and teens?!

[@VaughnMalecki]

How'd that go? Ready to start a community with children?

[@555rerun]

Town are dying all over the world and this gentleman made his own. How amazing!

[@saus675]

I remember the first part of this, the owner is so wonderful. God bless him.

[@darrisnelson5223]

Our Board if Supervisors won’t allow these types of developments because land prices here are insanely high-they want maximum $$ to fund their pensions. A community like this should exist in every town. We ate sorely lacking in affordable housing for seniors on limited incomes. Thanks for featuring Jim and his wife and their beautifully maintained park. ❤️

[@las174]

where?

[@orangefield3171]

That is so true. I live in a RV community that was started when my city was a outlying area with dirt roads. Now the prices for property are going crazy so another community like this will never be built. The city council would love to have this property and rezone it for commercial to get the big tax dollars.

[@jamesgilbert6363]

That Park has grabbed my heart. I'd love to live and participate there.

[@Janey234]

What terrific people...humble and caring. Doing something they love that is very much needed.

[@cheyennerain]

I need this in my life. I'm on disability after working my ass off for 40yrs but as a single mother w/no $ from baby daddy I was unable to save so now I'm living in my 2008 travel trailer which I dint mind and my rent is pretty cheap ($325+elec) but with fuel prices etc I'm starting to worry how long what I have stashed will last. At 62 it's a scary thought. I really need to be there 😁. It dies look like a REALLY old school community !!

[@klloyd3530]

Been here a year and a half. Everything they say is true. If you're a trouble maker don't come! If you want to contribute to something positive we're glad to have you aboard. We all live and let live out here.

[@rebeccamullis2127]

Wow, these two are amazing people. They truly care about people

[@Jonty_and_Chantal]

What a wonderful life philosophy. Less greed, more love and care. ❤

[@davewenners6722]

This is what I need when I'm ready. A place to rent for a great price and around the area I'd like to maybe move to. I live in Massachusetts and hate the cold. I have been over there in the past and loved it but it was a quick drive through.

[@cherylbusch6236]

I loved the first video about this wonderful park and the second one continues to foster happy thoughts of honest, kindhearted and generous people who aren’t living their lives to price gouge others for money. It gives me hope, in the back of my mind, that THERE IS a (utopia) to escape to. God bless you all…!

[@joanndavis4843]

This RV Ranch is like the old days where neighbors were not so near, but nearby. I like the terraced hillsides this park offers. Good walkability with some easy to moderate dirt roads for a morning or early evening hike, or to visit on a friend. And having the retired nurse living in the community of desert dwellers is of good assurance to know valuable medical advice is available if needed. I hope this ranch stays the way it is for years to come. I think it will if this owner has anything to do about it.

[@Big_bus303]

This comes to me in a time of need....i was invited to stay and then a week later now I'm being told I NEED TO BE OUT BY THE END OF MARCH!!!! I will be calling, and telling my mom about it too! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your beautiful land and for making this video 😄

[@susanlbk]

So you were invited to stay at this ranch then a week later you were told you had to be out by the end of March?? What am I missing, how is this wonderful?

[@PhiLeo7973]

Blessings to Jim & Michelle for a healthy, happy, safe, and wonderful year. A couple of rare integrity, vision, compassion, and humble intellect. I wish to someday shake their hands and honor their tender, remarkable hearts. Live Long & Prosper.🇺🇲👍🍀❤️🙏

[@AnMarie711]

Thats great. I was wondering how his place was doing after the first video. Love the follow up video. So exciting to see how its flourished. Thank you.

[@Linchabre]

It has flourished all right! It went from the 30% occupancy to full. Problem is their antiquated systems did not flourish to meet the demands of a full house.

[@karenk3593]

Just FYI, there are new emergency housing vouchers (EHV) Section 8 vouchers available right now for homeless, even in big cities where the Section 8 waiting lists are closed - homeless can get one now. HUD made 70,000 of these EHV available right now and only 13,000 or so have been given away so far, since last year. The housing authorities and social service agencies are still trying to figure it out, so they aren't going really fast at this point, plus, people just don't know about them. Could be an even cheaper option for some people who can't even afford this nice place. For what it's worth, thought I'd let people know. In case some van dwellers are needing a regular apartment due to health, etc.

[@Linchabre]

Thanks for the info…

[@outbackeddie]

Thanks for the video Bob. LIfe would be so much better and less stressful if we had more people and places like this.

Good sir, you are doing amazing work for the vanlife community, more so than these kids that just want to show off their vans and romanticize about the lifestyle.

I've been full time RV for 7 years. Same rv park the whole time. When I first moved here, it was $397/month....just got another price increase this month and it's now $754/month

[@happycook6737]

Whoa, that's a big increase

[@jerroddooley374]

@@happycook6737 yes it is. They also just sent out an email to all residents saying they're also increasing the electricity portion of our rent as well. Don't get me wrong, it's still way more affordable than an apartment or house, but still don't like the increases. For some reason, my park has changed ownership about every 18 months. It's a great park and great community with awesome amenities. I just don't know why it keeps being sold. Every time is sells, the new owners raise rates

[@margaretpulsipher2581]

I'm was so excited to see this interview. I saw your video 2 years ago but forgot the name of the rv park looking forward to camp here soon.

I'm 45 and would love to be part of something like this. When Bob did the initial show on CBL I felt I could've ditched current life and went and lived there forever. Now they've got a fired dept, any plans to add more in respect to safety, health &/or convenience? I'm a massage therapist & very much into natural healthcare, herbs, tropicals, etc & love to help people. Doing so in a community would be wonderful. Just a thought! Also have a passion for education when it comes to history & law 💗. Cooking, arts, restoration, gardening, and crafts also amazing. Michelle is a retired nurse!?! Awesome! Jim, I'm with you Bob, knowing he is the real deal (just like you too)! I would love to help out here. I gave up being beholden to gov a couple years ago & do most by way of trade & barter. I nap when I want to, so I may be up at 4am or 10am, just take life as it comes. I have an old dog who is as sweet as they come & we both LOVE people! Would we fit in? 😊

Trying to post without the spell checker changing my words lol! This site is amazing, wish I could get back to AZ, but as a Brit I can't sadly, I miss the sun and heat. Thank you for making a lovely place for people Jim, giving safety and hope to people. My only question would be what happens when Jim can't do this any more as he's getting older, like us all... What about prices jumping everywhere ?

[@saus675]

If the new owners after Jim is gone do not keep the same rules and rates, most people will just leave the place because after all it is in the middle of nowhere.

There's always someplace else to go to if the owners change or if you don't like the terrain. Don't be afraid to try it.

[@lauragrueninger6048]

Hi Bob! I've only been watching your videos a few month but I'm hooked! I've actually been dreaming of taking off and traveling the country for years. Unfortunately, health issues and having to go on Social Security have changed things a bit. I still want to and I'm ready. The problem is finding a tiny camper of some kind that would be easy for an amputee to get into and move around in easily. A teardrop would be one idea. I was hoping you might have other suggestions. The other problem is funds to buy one, so it would have to be cheap and light as my current SUV, while very nice, has a low tow capacity. I really want to get started and hopefully join a caravan so I can learn the ropes. I have done a LOT of camping throughout my life. Growing up in a large family that's what we did. My Dad loved to fish, and I do as well. Then my ex and I camped together with our kids and a few other families. I was also a Scout mom so did a lot with the Boy Scouts. So I'm not a newby to camping, just doing it full time. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I probably have some tips I could share with a caravan as well. Thanks, Bob!
