But they have lots of activities, pools and sun. So here is what I have pieced together at this point:
Cal-Am Properties - http://www.cal-am.com/
They have 12 upscale RV resorts that cater to active lifestyles, pets, etc. The resorts are located in Arizona and California
Roberts Resorts - http://www.robertsresorts.com/
There are 5 resorts in Arizona that, again, cater to an active lifestyle. I couldn't find a pet policy but they say they require trailers to be >26' long ( I think I can fudge 1 foot).
Rincon Resort - http://www.rinconcountry.com/
This is a 2 park resort in Arizona. Looks popular
These all look great and on the mark for what we were interested in. I have not looked through reviews as yet but certainly plan to.
Any comments on these or others?

I don't like any of these for a long list of reasons. Also...we stayed at Voyager twice and will never stay there again.
Look at the Sunland RV Resort properties. They are all resort-style with no permanent modular structures. We are currently staying at Emerald Desert in Palm Desert for a week and love it. Beautifully landscaped with lots of shade (which is a must for us when we're staying in a desert) and first class amenities. There is so much to do in the Coachella Valley without having to drive great distances. I can't say the same for the resorts in Arizona and we are familiar with all of them. From here it's an easy drive to LA or San Diego or any of the beach towns in Orange County California. Last time here we drove to the Disney Concert Hall to see an LA Phil matinee concert and then home by dinner.
If you're visiting the San Diego area, I would recommend the the Metro KOA which is set in a forest and an easy drive down Harbor to downtown and the Marina and Harbor district. Also an easy drive to Coronado Island or Balboa Park. We visited Chula Vista but opted not to stay there.
Send me a personal email if you wanted detailed information on various areas of the Southwest or California. We have traveled from San Diego to Seattle many times in the last 12 years.
