I have lived in the Apollo Village community for 5 years and find the amenities and responsiveness…read moreof staff to be consistently professional and courteous. Facilities are kept clean and I have seen annual upgrades to the park that have been substantive and of benefit to all residents. The parks proximity to shopping in Surprise, Arrowhead and Glendale Entertainment districts with their Restaurants, Stadiums and recreation opportunities make it a ideal spot. Trips out of town ae made easier with its proximity to the 101, which connects to either I17 or I10 and Grand Avenue down the Street the it's time to head to Vegas for a weekend getaway , lol. All in all the management does it's best to address common issues in the park and some of their programs like the Tuesday night Food Trucks that visited the park all through the summer, monthly outings and breakfast are great. The park has a resident council that puts out a monthly newsletter and calendar so events are easy to participate in. The Park also offers a large Recreation Clubhouse with Library, Pool tables and big screen Tv's for Game Days. Secure Mailboxes and an on site office with free notary are a plus. The heated pool has been a wonderful benefit always clean and comfortable and music plays in the background 24/7. Friday night Bingo in the Clubhouse is open to the public and has become a fine event drawing a regular crowd. So in a complicated world I enjoy life here at Apollo village and feel confident recommending it to anyone looking for alternative housing in a ever more difficult world for seniors.

If you are looking to move here, I strongly suggest that you run for the hills because the park is rundown, neglected, and it is only going to get worse.

The grilling setup was probably the nicest I've ever seen for a public park. There were probably 20-30 individual picnic table areas each with their own grill. They also had a covered area with even bigger grills. There were even peacocks walking around! Numerous baseball/softball fields, as well as playground equipment. I would definitely come back here and bring people.

My husband and I needed to test out some things in our RV and this resort is very close to where we…read moreactually store her so we decided to make a little bit of a vacation out of it and booked a week here in one of their short term, RV rental spots. As it's a short term spot, we did not have a picnic table, but we did notice on our walks that they appear to have some in other, lots, most likely for longer stays. We found the landscaping to be very well maintained! make sure to bring your longer cables and such as the pedestal is quite a distance from the back of the pad, however, they do have a rule that your RV must be at least 26 feet long (we are a tad longer), so hopefully your cord is long enough if you have one our size. Ours was long enough with no slack. Everything operated correctly and we really appreciated the fact they put us in a slot where we didn't have neighbors directly next to us so it was a nice quiet week. My favorite spot was the pool and my pictures simply do not do it justice because it was busy all the time with pool volleyball, water, aerobics, and such . The chairs are very comfortable and they were very attentive to ensuring everything was in order when people left. I posted the schedule for the week, but there are tons of things going on here! We did go over to the bar and grill at the golf course but it was a little awkward as you have to leave the park And then come back in, lol. It would've been a lot easier just walking over there. We didn't have time to try any of the food but we did have a glass of wine and a beer and the total was $10 so pricing is very reasonable and the bartender, Pepsi, was super friendly. They do have some type of bar and grill that they open when there are events in and around that area but nothing that was open on a regular basis It really is a large park and there are a lot of different mini communities. It seemed as it looks like they had a new section every so often. It looks like they were beginning new construction for yet another neighborhood. There are also a lot of areas to just relax and sit with a group around the fire pit or chat. We noticed there were folks sitting in circles with instruments having a jam session as well as people putting puzzles together, reading books, and just in general having fun. They seem to have a very strong social network We did order a propane refill and honestly, the guy was one of the nicest people we've ever had out for service! Super easy we called the day before and they swing through the neighborhood and fill at the appropriate time assigned There is some noise from nearby, Luke Air Force Base, so just be prepared for that All in all, we had a really nice experience, and would definitely return! Everyone was really friendly to us.

My family and I just completed our second stay here. Twice we have rented out the guest house and…read morewe will definitely be back. I absolutely love this place, its away from the city (which we are from Phx), the weather is cooler, and the scenery is beautiful. The owners Ella and Mike are super down to earth and kind. When you rent the guest house, they provide you with farm fresh eggs, bread, bacon, orange juice; basic breakfast food. So if you come multiple days you do need to bring own food and cook yourself but it's not bad at all. The house is filled with all cooking utensils and its clean. They also have an outdoor kitchen right next to the house which is super cool and glows with lights at night time. The best part about this place is the beautiful lake nearby that you can easily spend an entire day at, either swimming, fishing, boating. It's really just amazing and I highly reccomend.

My girlfriend and I stayed here over the past weekend and it turned into a bigger adventure than we…read morecould have expected. We got there late, which I would not recommend since the roads are dark and bit confusing, and to our surprise there was only one cabin on the property and we were the only visitors, since it was a bit cold for tent camping. The cabin is prety big with one bedroom/bathroom but could house up to 3 couples IMO. Since this is the first review on this place im gonna try doing a quick run down of the things that made the experience memorable. 1. Far away from civilization - This ranch is prety probably 30 mins from any civilization so gotta come prepared with food. There is no cell service so its a good excuse to ignore the world for a while. Wifi is available but we had trouble getting on so we decided to go without and it was nice. They had a landline available but we did not use it. 2. You get the farm experience - The cabin is 20 ft away from a big chicken coop with happy chickens and roosters. There are cows (bought some great organic burger meat for $4/lb) and horses (went for my first horse ride for $45/hr). There were a also a bunch of cats that seemed a bit hungry but ended up growing on us and an old dog named Lucy. 3. Lots to do - There is a pond on the property with fish and a bunch of boats to take out. There are hiking paths (it is mostly a desert landscape with a good amount of trees around the lake/river). You can take out the horses with the owners as your personal tour guides. Great firepit with wood provided right next to the cabin. The area also has atvs and but we didnt get a chance to use them. 4. Great owners - Prob the best part of the experience was how welcoming the owners and farm hand was. They were very open, trusting, accomodating and really went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Heard some great stories and philosophies on being happy and living a simple farm life, which ive always been curious about. I would def recommend the experience to my friends but it is definitely good to know what to expect. One somewhat misleading thing is the bed and breakfast in the name, since you make your own food, but they do provide the food with kitchen and it all worked out really nice.
