Does GS own them now?

Now we know who them is, so what?

To reply to the questions here, Coast to Coast is owned by the same parent company that owns Good Sam and Camping World. Coast to Coast runs a reciprocal use network of membership campgrounds, so that when you join one membership campground, as a member of Coast to Coast you receive reciprocal use of other membership campgrounds in the U.S. and Canada for $10 per night. There are also other RVing and travel benefits included with Coast membership, including a Good Sam membership. However only Good Sam members who are also members of Coast to Coast can utilize the Coast to Coast resort network.

I hope that answers the questions posed here. If I can provide any further information please just post your question.

I thought Coast to Coast was put on by George Noory ;)

I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong but I believe if you are a paid up member of C2C you are automatically a member of Good Sam.

Whether or not there's an advantage to also being a member of GS I don't know. We dropped our C2C membership several years ago because there's so much overlap with RPI.

Good Sam and Coast to Coast are parts of the same company. I believe that was your question.

I know they own something, but not too sure what it is.

No who is owned by them.
