There are vast areas where your KOA "standard" of $35 to $40 hasn't been seen for many years. Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, California, Northeastern US, Coastal Florida and most major metro areas are a start. Maybe you are the ones who need to get out camping more.westernrvparkowner wrote:Tom/Barb wrote:Could you direct us to a book or list of "standard" prices? It sure would be nice to know when I am being charged too much or too little for all sorts of things. What exactly is the standard hotel price? The standard airfare? The standard for a gallon of gas oe a steak dinner.valhalla360 wrote:Tom/Barb wrote:
KOAs are not usually 100 per night, we stay at them all the time, We did call, we do know how to ensure They have space for us.
We never suspected KOA to blind side us with these prices.
So you failed to check the price and are upset that they didn't call you last week to tell you, just in case you happened to be driving by and decided to stop this week?
Are you trying to rationalize 100 bucks a night? or are you failing to understand that $100 is way over the standard?
Or why attack me for complaining about it , and for warning others
I have always automatically asked "and what is the rate" immediately after confirming availability. It never, ever, occurred to me there is, or should be, a standard rate.
If you got out camping more you wouldn't need a book or a page. you'd just know.
we just spent 4 weeks in KOAs, how much more would you want? $100 is way out of the norm.
This ain't Yellowstone.
