I moved here about a month ago and I'm loving the small town hospitality. So far, it seems like a very nice little place. All the necessities with minimal hustle and bustle. And Tucson isn't that far away when you want to expand the shopping options. And I enjoy hearing the trains pass through.🚂 If I can survive the summer heat and the monsoons, I'll be a happy camper.😁
Accidentally got off on exit 303 on I 10 west. I was hungry and found Wild Dogs restaurant. Best accident ever! If you are ever in that area, I suggest stopping. It was THE best!
@@exploringsoutheastarizona2167 Oh no! We were planning to go back Dec 6th. This is awful! Thanks for telling me. Prayers for them. They were so nice. The food was awesome.
I lived in Arizona, in NE Tucson from 7/2020 until early Feb 2021. I visited Tombstone twice while I was there, and really enjoyed the drive both times. My route took me through Benson. I didn't really have time to stop in Benson, but what I saw driving through seem like a nice laid back town. I drove on Route 80 / Historic Route 80. Until I saw this video, I didn't know you guys had a Walmart, an airport, and the golf course. I am guessing those places are not located on the beaten path. Next time I get out that way, I will allow more time to stop in and hang out. What places do you have in town for lodging?
Hi John, we have a few motels in town near the highway, Quality Inn Benson, Motel 6, Copper Stay, Comfort Inn (those are the chain motels) there's also a few others along with a couple B&B's in the area (Hidden Oasis & Down By the River).
I been in Benson, AZ last week and it was so nice.I went to a wedding.I was there for one week and I think it's the best town.I was there from October 4th until the 8th.
Where on the East Coast did you come from? I was born in Groton, CT. lived there til I was 12(Dad was Navy on submarines). Have lived in Illinois(Great Lakes) and SW MO (spent most of my life there. Moved here to SE AZ in 2014.(my wife wanted to live closer to her mom).
@@exploringsoutheastarizona2167 I lived in Florida for many years and Georgia, I love them both, I am having a hard time loving Benson, but it’s affordable and really nobody bothers you here, no stress ... but gosh!! If I could afford it I’d be back in Florida, I’m originally from London Uk 🇬🇧😊
@@ripsagoly Strangely, if I could afford to move to Arizona I think I would because I live in southern Louisiana, and like Florida, there are the hurricanes. We had back to back hurricanes in 2020. I'm too old for this.
