Stillwater is in the middle of one of the largest construction projects in its history. A major data center campus is rising on the edge of town, and with it comes a wave of contractors, trades, and crews who all face the same question after “when do I start?” — “where am I going to live?” If you’re bringing a rig, or weighing whether to, here’s a straight-shooting guide to RV housing near the Stillwater data center and what to check before you book.
What’s being built in Stillwater
Public reports describe a multi-billion-dollar data center campus under development in Stillwater — a project led by Google spanning roughly 400 acres near Perkins and Richmond Roads, with several large buildings planned and the first phase expected to come online around 2027. Beyond the permanent operations roles, the construction itself puts hundreds of workers in town for months at a stretch. If you’re one of them, you’ll want a place to stay that’s built for a long assignment, not a weekend.
Why Crews Choose RV Sites Over Hotels
- Cost over months: Hotel nightly rates pile up fast on a job that runs through winter. A monthly RV site is a fraction of that, and your per diem stretches much further.
- Your own space: A kitchen to cook real food, your own bed, and room to actually decompress after a 10- or 12-hour shift.
- Keep the crew together: Park several rigs in one place so the team stays close and carpooling to the site is easy.
- Stability: One spot for the length of the job — no scrambling to re-book every week.
What to Look for in a Site Near the Project
Not every RV park is set up for working crews. Before you commit, check for:
- Full hookups: City water, sewer, and 30/50-amp electric at the site, so you’re not hauling to a dump station on your day off.
- Real security: Fenced, gated, well-lit, and camera-monitored. Your rig and your tools are your livelihood.
- Reliable WiFi and on-site laundry: The basics that make a months-long stay livable.
- In-town location: Close to food, hardware, and daily needs after the workday.
- Year-round, winter-ready hookups: The build runs straight through the cold months.
