This is no longer the same Thousand Trails it used to be. Depending on when you purchased your membership it has been sold numerous times. The present owners are nothing more than property managers whose expertise is in something akin to mobile home parks. The previous owners basically took our money and did very little upkeep on the parks. In some instances the latest owners have actually improved the parks but in basically opening them up to the general public they are bordering on breach of contract to those of us who have binding contracts with specific promises. Unfortunately they have the high priced lawyers on retainer and we have nothing. My biggest gripe is the parks that have large amounts of what I can only describe as homeless transients ( no I am not referring to full time RV'rs). Many of these people are living in what can only be described as units that most probably cannot make it more than a few miles down the road if they can be moved at all. I have great empathy for the people that have to live like that and I understand that this is the cheapest option available to them but, I did not invest a large amount of money in a membership in what was supposed to be an exclusive membership club to camp next to this.
