Hacienda Contreras Under New Ownership

Sal N Barb,
Best wishes in whatever your next adventure brings. We passed through there two winters, and very much enjoyed our stays! Had a great meal at Sal's family's restaurant, the park was great and so were all the surroundings.
I thought you two found your niche in life as RV park owners, gonna miss ya!
Keep the map!

It probably personal reasons why they decided to close but at $10.00 a night it was / is pretty cheap. Remember there are utilities, internet, labor costs and infrastructure upkeep 12 months a year. That stuff does not go away when you all head back north.
The hard part is to price it so you don´t scare away clients but can still afford to stay open for the next season. No one is getting rich in this business.

Hey looking forward to seeing you guys all at breakfast! Lets keep the campers rolling in so the new owners will continue to operate the park!!!

Have You given any thoughts to Acting as Wagon Masters? I believe that Paul suggested it and I agree ,You Guys would be great!

Done deal! That was fun, we enjoyed doing it as well as the togetherness. That is one thing I like about HC, good group of people.

Sounds like fun! As long as you and Juan make breakfast one morning!

We liked it so much I even worked there one summer! One of my best experiences in life. Great owners, good friends, great rv park, metered electric, good 30 amp, a great small town where they love visitors. We'll be back, in fact, should the new owners hang in there, we will probably have a winter reunion, don't you think?

Thanks Croft, surely we will see you down the road.

We know that the people who paid for patios will be able to return this season, and the new owners says people with reservations can come. Rocmoc, you have a reservation, right? Sal and I will still be there in our 5er on our patio, we just cannot guarantee what amenities will be available. Im leaving a washing machine, and have a feeling that who ever shows up will be allowed to camp this season, and maybe the new owner will find it easier than he thought and keep it open. Too much up in the air right now. The new owner does understand that people may show up and he is not going to turn them away.

He does have a night watchman that will watch the park, the stored RVs, including ours, and the building, so Sherman is fine. He plans on a full time gardener too, so we will just see what time brings. Sal and I will be in the states till the middle of October, so again, anyone wanting to come email us first.
