Just want to hear if any of our forum members are members of Coast to Coast and what you think of it?How does the point system work? Looks like you pay a lot of money to be a member and add annual dues on top of that and then have to buy "Trip Points" to stay somewhere for free? Just got done visiting a park that tried to sell us a membership but honestly I walked out not knowing that much about how the system/program/membership worked anyways but now have lots of questions and unfortunately we are no longer at the park to ask them to the sales person.Thanks in advance and I will check back later for replies,Robert

You will get a lot of negative responses on this forum, but if you buy your membership on the secondary market and don't pay their high up front membership costs you can make C2C work for you. There are only a limited number of resorts so you have to be willing to go where they are, and learn to work within their rules, they are quite strict. Don't worry about the points, they work a lot like credits, just make sure your account stays positive. I use C2C probably 30 or 40 nights per year, I feel I am getting my money worth. GNP all charge 1500 points per night, $15, still well worth it. If you want more details from me, IM me, I will respond with more details.

May depend on where you camp but in my State there are about 4 and given the choice I probably wouldn't choose to stay at any of them. Nuff said?

Back around 1990 we had C2C, cost a buck a night. Then they started a chit system and went up. And up again and fewer resorts. Gave it all up about 1995.

Last summer we were going to stay at a GNP in northern Ohio on Lake Erie, this park charges 4500 points or $45.00 a night. That said, depending on how many nights you spend in your RV, the cost saving can be significant. My home park has a yearly maintenance fee of $375, and Coast to Coast is $150 per year. My home park has four other resorts in the network and charge members $0 per night. At an average of $35-$40 per night, 10-12 nights cover my maintenance fee. For us, this system works, for others, maybe not.

We full timed traveling for 7 yrs
Bought a 'home park' with frozen yearly dues and the C2C Deluxe affiliate membership via RESALE
Total buy-in was $950 (home park membership/transfer fees/1st year dues plus C2C Deluxe membership/transfer fees/1st year dues)

We used C2C affiliate parks to stay at WHEN they were convenient (in area we were headed to)
Stayed at a lot of those high priced private resorts/parks for just $10/$15 per night FHU site and we could stay up to 2 weeks at a time with the deluxe membership.

Bought 'Points' on line at the C2C website..made reservations to parks via C2C website. Simple/Easy to use system
Points.....1000=$10 We would buy $500 worth and get bonus points (like 7500 more===5 to 7 days free)

Make reservation ....get confirmation
Show up, check in, stay then move on ---CG got paid by C2C....points deducted from your account

Home park dues.....$59/yr
C2C Deluxe dues...$139/yr
Total dues .......$198/yr

Just one 2 week stay at $10/night vs $30, $40, $65.......yeah it was worth the $200 year in dues.
We used C2C affiliate CGs roughly 10 times a year as we traveled all around the USA. Just one of the low cost resources we used for a place to be each night.

RESALE.........pennies on the dollar
Use the various CGs each year
THEN it is worth the membership

Otherwise....NO THANKS!
