Which card gives the best value?
Forum Discussion
We use all opportunities. If price only were the consideration it would narrow the field considerably. You never shop at only one store do you?
Comparing Koas to Good Sams is like saying one is a Marriott, the other a Motel 6. Often the GS is the Marriott, KOA the motel 6 in the area.
My point is the brand is of little importance, discounts are way overrated. Discounts are any retailers way to sway customers into loyalty.
Good Sams are all privatelly independent locally owned parks, free to do whatever they wish to serve their customers and demographics.
KOAs are primarily privately owned, with corporate ownership for large minority. They do have a minimum set of rules rating standard that must be met for all to retain the brand name.
Good Sams are held to a minimum standard, are judged with rating. They can be from just passable to exquisite....
In our experience corporate camps including 1000 trails will be higher in nightly fees than privately owned camps. As always, buyer beware, What looks best may not be for you.
