To the OP and others,
rvparkreviews has been slowly changing their criteria and views for a couple years now and no longer gives an accurate account of what rv'ers actually have experienced overall when staying at a particular CG/resort. We've run into scores of rv'ers who have noticed it and are not happy at all and no longer visit the site or put any faith or trust in what they read. We have found that just because it's a pretty and great looking CG at a higher price, being treated like strangers etc not wanted ruins the stay. Money is not the issue for us but it is for many and being mal-treated at elevated costs is not remotely acceptable!
We are included in this findings now. Vote with your feet and wheels that turn and be sure to tell others often and constantly! It eventually hits the CG and gets their attention with diminishing business. In our 50 years this year of rv'ing, we've seen hundreds of once nicely kept and very nice looking CG/resorts close/go belly up due to poor management/staff skills or jerk owners. It always gets back to them eventually and all rv'ers have the key to their success or failure as it's their dollars that make or break them!
How welcoming and pleasant the staff is at all times makes or breaks the rv'ers staying experience just as does bad WIFI or Cable or unlevel sites or low voltage electric or an explanation of rates etc is. Physical sub-par issues can and should be reported and corrected but rude etc staff issues are seldom ever addressed as they should be as they are an extension of the CG owners directives administered by the employees. Often, it's the actual owner that turns the customers off! How stupid can it get?
We can deal with not great physical CG attributes but will never return or go to a CG that the staff or owner/owners are less than welcoming, rude, or unpleasant. We want to know which CG's have these poor management staffs etc as we will always avoid them and tell others constantly about what they are like. The funny thing is that upon seeing these same informed rv'ers at a later time, we so often hear that WE were spot on and right about what we had said as they tried them too and had the same results. Is all these rv'ers wrong or are the facts actually experienced able to speak for themselves?
Word of mouth among rv'ers and posts on forums tells volumes even if rvparkreviews doesn't want the truth to be displayed on their site! We're smarter than that and hold the real KEY in our wallets.
