First I see some confusion in the replies here... Thousand Trails offerers, or has offered at least THREE different levels of membership.
IN THE BEGINNING. as the Good book starts. Like all the other Membership chains they offered a lifetime, national, membership (What I have) this gives me access to all the Thousand Trails parks, (buit not TT Mid Atlantic or other Encore parks) from sea to sea, Michigan, SC, FLordia, California and anywhere in between.
I pay so month a month (Dues) for life. I can park in a TT park for up to two weeks (14 nights) then I have to spend a week ... Out of the system, Then I can come back for 2 weeks
They still offer an "Enhanced" WHich lets me stay 3 weeks in and a week out and I think I can move park to park within the system rather than "out". but I don't have that so I'm not sure.
The Lastest offering and far as I know ONLY Thousand Trails offers this is the ZONE PASS.. This has both limits and advantages. Like the national membership it is 2 weeks in and one out and the cost is about the same as I pay in annual dues. BUT, and this is one big B U T !!!!!!
The Zone pass is a one year "Membership" There is no other price. For about 560 dollars (Note sure of the exact price) you get access to about 1/5 of the ENCORE parks, this includes TT Mid atlantic I do not get as well as TT.
But it's only good for ONE YEAR. (renewable) at the end of that year if you don't want to continue.. Send a letter "It's been fun but.. No Thank You" type letter requesting the zone pass NOT be renewed and you are done with them.
OH, and you can often get a 2nd zone for a reduced fee.. Up to 100% reduced in some cases.
