Thank you class C Broads. I am also a regular at happy hour where I met you. Thank you for a very nice job describing our park. One small correction. The cooperative owns everything. We are triple net lease holders. You really did nail it when you said the camaraderie and sense of community is so important.
Well hello Les, our reliable Happy Hour friend! Thank you for the clarification. We did try to note that the residents were leaseholders, but that they were also members of the co-op. What we liked about that was that the co-op made all of the decisions, not some faceless corporate entity located in some other state. I talk a little bit about that in the blog too, but if something needs further correcting, please let me know. www.classcbroads.com/blog/saguaro-co-op-rv-park-in-benson-arizona-the-hot-list
What a GREAT video!!! We are leaseholders and love the place. One thing to mention for potential "HOT" list folks is that you are not required to take a place when your number is low enough. Number 1 has been floating since 1999!! It took us three years to get a spot. It cost us $42,000 in April '22. When we vacate the spot our estate is guaranteed to get that back as well as a portion of all the upgrades we plan to do to our casita. Almost like a 0% savings account but you will NOT lose any $$. Lots and Lots of fun. I use the shop all the time and the blacksmith shop as well. Anyone interested should get on the list. You can decide to get off if you want but you will assuredly have an option for a spot down the road. I'm sharing this video with all my friends and family. Well done!!!!
Thanks! We are so looking forward to our next visit to the SKP in Benson! The place was an unexpected treasure, and we are so glad we are on the HOT LIST. Maybe we will be neighbors one day....?
We've lived here for three years (1 year as a longterm renter, 2 as leaseholders) and use it as a basecamp. In summer we travel further afield, and in winter there's plenty of great nearby attractions to enjoy. SKP Saguaro is a great place! Thanks for the marvelous video!
That is awesome! Maybe we will be neighbors one day :-). Thank so much to you and the other leaseholders for making us feel so welcome and for having such a nice park. You all should really be proud.
We have thought about buying into a place like this. We like one down in the RGV (Rio Grande Valley). They have livable casitas, but they are a lot more expensive. BTW, we think we will be heading the the RGV mid winter.
We've not yet been to the RGV area (unless you count a couple of trips to South Padre when I was in undergrad). It's a place we have talked about going to part of a winter, but that is probably a couple of years of at least given our itinerary. Enjoy your time in warmer climates. Your summer map on insta looks pretty good too!
I am interested in a Co-op Property that each person can have a tiny home on. With splitting the cost sharing community kitchen, laundry room, gym, internet wisp network, etc
@@ClassCBroads thank you kindly for your reply. I also Like (Co-op / Cooperative) residents and business models then the BIG Corp taking the most and giving tiny amounts to the community.

This place looks awsome. I never knew this type of thing existed. Thanks for another great video!
Yep, it was pretty eye opening for us as well! Such an interesting model....

That is an interesting place. Great break down on the concept.
Thank you. I wish there were more places like this....
Interesting.

Thank you very much. I am an artist and a Casitas woukd make a great art studio. 😊
You are welcome. Sounds like you might need to check out the place :-)

We haven't researched non-RV properties like that at all. We just sorta fell into the SKP Co-op and like it. Good luck with your search!

That's A-Lot information 😅
Yep, we pack A-LOT in... 😀
Such a shame to not have a pool…………
Still...the place is pretty amazing!
