Sugestions

Are you in Woodalls (Good Sam's) directory? Passport America or other groups? Do you have an entry in RVParkReviews.com? Woodalls and RVParks are the most important, that's how a lot of people find CG. National Parks list CG near them tho that's unlikely in Alabama. AAA list campgrounds in their state books.

If its an area of the region where people want to go as a destination, then I would suggest more advertising, not signage at the site.

do you have a website? does it have the appropriate backend programing to be one of the first hits when a search is done for a campground in the area you are located?

are you overpriced for the area you are in? realizing your description of the type are park you built, it is still possible to be over priced.

another idea. we crossed paths with a campground at a RV show. it is primaraly a seasonal campground, and is under new ownership. the new owners made several changes and were over open with their promotion of what they have changed and what they have kept. one thing they added was a "day fee" so someone or a family could make their campground a day trip. they had a pool and may other activities that could be enjoyed by a day visitor. this is a great way for someone to tryout your campground prior to deciding to becoming seasonal.

I hear the desperation in your post and feel for the predicament you are in. I only wish I had a solution for you but I don't. Your concern for those who have purchased is commendable but in the end you may have to make very difficult choices. We still have a difficult economy to prosper in when operating on limited funding.

Unfortunately, any marketing efforts to get you noticed are also going to require more investment money. You got 24 people to buy in so there must be some redeeming qualities for your location? If you are near the interstate highways, maybe some billboards to attract transients.

Others have already suggested Woodalls and similar publications. A WEB site always helps, but work to get your site up the ladder on Google so that it comes up easily in the area.

What's the attraction to your area? To your CG? Play on the positives!

Worst case, look to sell before abandoning the tenants you already have. It may not be the best option, but it's much better than closing the gates.

Have you hired an expert for search engine optimization? And remember to keep the website simple enough for fast loading for mobile users -- many folks will use their phones to look for convenient RV parks when they are on the road!

It seems that most places that sell sites usually purchase or create mailing lists and then offer free camping to get the customer in the door.
