Thousand Trails Membership

Any good or not so good advise on Thousand Trails? It seems pretty decent as long as you plan to travel in their "ZONE". I didnt get the feel of a high pressure time share type. Right now if you purchase 1 zone for $545.00 you get a second zone free. If you renew every year contiously you will always get the second zone free of charge.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

  • I was a member for over ten years. If you camp a LOT it's an OK deal but otherwise let it pass.
  • We have a nationwide TT membership. We spent six weeks in California last winter. We pay no dues, and no annual fees, so for us it's a great deal.

    There are many parks that we really like, and there are some that we don't care for much. But we focus on the ones we do enjoy.

    There are many places that we travel to that have no TT parks, but there are many parks that are well placed, and a great place to visit.
  • I too favor Passport America. We belong to Coast to Coast also and have camped at affiliate (out of our network, $10 a night) CG's but as stated before their locations are very limited. We have used C2C in combination with PA on long trips and find PA has the most availability but you need to pay attention to the restrictions. Some PA CG's are Monday thru Thursday, not good on holidays, limit the number of nights the discount is good for and such. Still we find that we use PA the most. A good value if you travel a lot. If you only go camping a few times a year then I would not bother with any memberships in any of them.
