Neskowin Creek RV Park membership

Neskowin Creek RV Resort is part of Sound Pacific Resorts.

So, when I signed up I assumed that I had the chance to win all the products that were shown that someone would win. Then I was called and told that I won first draw and that I needed to come by (like a 130 mile drive) and get the details. I finally pressed the person calling me, after I posted here, about what I had actually won. I hadn't really won anything! Isn't this fraud? I will write to an attorney general again because I hate being suckered and ripped off and I'm sure other people do also. I went through a lot getting things taken care of in order to pick up my winnings and then I find out that I was scammed. I urge others to complain also.

Neskowin is owned & operated by one of the brothers in the family owned KM Resorts business operating out of Wa. state. I knew they had a new CG in Oregon that they bought but didn't know it was run under Sound Pacific. Maybe they do that for legal reasons?

If you want to find out what some members of KM think about them, do some googling. For starters, there are numerous complaints with the BBB. Note the common issues with complaints! If you come across positive reviews, be wary of who is posting them.

Don't believe any of Sound Pacific's or KM's total lies and BS. They hand out "free" memberships and swag at RV shows and places like CW all the time like candy. We used to see prospective new members being driven around the CG by a salesman (like we did) and getting sucked in and ripped off (like we did). Their only objective is to sell you a membership at the highest $$ they can get out of you. If you haven't done your due diligence beforehand on the internet, expect to get taken.

If you end up wanting to sell a membership with them, you almost have to give it away. We only got $850 for a membership in all their CGs in Wa. + Neskowin and had to compete against other sellers trying to dump theirs too. You can get them on CL for a fraction of what you'd pay if going through a salesman. Some of their CGs are the worst we've seen anywhere and are disgustingly bad for the amount you pay for a membership to get into them (like Columbia Shores at Chinook, Wa. for ex.).

BTW, when their salesman came to our house (to get us to pay more for an upgrade) he said they were in the process of partnering with Equity Lifestyle Properties and that their CGs would be putting in more rental cabins on RV sites because they make more money. Don't know if this is true or not or if it would've applied to Neskowin too. Can't believe a thing they say.

Yes
They are trying to sell you a membership.

Salesmanship like this is not the way Sound Pacific should be doing business. Or 1000 trails either.

They have a good product for the right person.

We use our membership quite a bit for not even being full timers. A free camp spot pays for the membership quickly if you use the service.

We were at a Camping world in Burlington WA. and had the same thing happen with the same outfit. A draw for a generator and a call saying we won this big deal prize. We dropped by their promotion site and I just said cut the **** how much will it cost me. After a bunch of bull he told me $600. I told him I won nothing and he runs a scam. I wonder if anyone ever wins the generator?

I am wondering about the drawing this year (2017) at Camping World in Wilsonville, OR. I entered a drawing there for a giveaway of lots of camping goods. At least there was a brochure of lots of stuff to be given away next to the box for entering my name and address.
I was called a few days later and told that I had won first draw and had won $1995.00 worth of stuff. I was told to either meet up at the Neskowin RV Park in Neskowin, OR if I wanted to get a discounted stay there for a while, or meet up near Wilsonville, OR to get the details.
I called back over the 4th of July to ask if I could pick my stuff up around that time since I was going through that area with my car. I was told to wait when I had my RV and maybe just meet in Newkowin if I was thinking about camping there.
I needed some work done on my RV and finally started heading that way from Southern Oregon but then realized that my RV was still not running right so turned back. I talked to the person again about picking up my winnings and if I needed to actually go to Neskowin or if I could pick up the stuff where I entered the drawing in Wilsonville and also asked if I could maybe just pick out $1995.00 worth of stuff. This time I was told to go to Wilsonville first and get the details of what I had won.
It was not until this point that I realized that something wasn't right since this person seemed to be trying to sell me membership or something and ignoring my questions about the stuff that I had supposedly won.
Did anyone else enter this drawing and told that they won first draw? I don't want to drive across the state just to find out that I am being scammed.

One person who put their name in the jar won the generator. The rest of them won a free one year membership to the Neskowin Creek RV park. I'm betting they were the sponsors of the generator giveaway.

I would pass.

We are members of RPI. Neskowin and Cascade Meadows are our home parks. Neskowin is a family type park with group BBQ's every Saturday. On Valintine's weekend the park bought 4 huge prime ribs for a camp wide potluck. Christmas, New years and all the holidays are fun.

If you are going to use it, it will be worth it.

We have done 35 nights at only the membership cost this year, plus we have left the rig 4 times in site to return after working wed, thur and friday.
The cost of going to other network parks is $10.00

WHat was buy in costs for 'home park' and annual dues to maintain membership??

I know the annual dues for RPI.......just the home park costs?

It was $3200 and we got a $1500 coupon when we purchased our new Momentum. I figure we are even already with the 35 days of camping at our home parks.
We will be full time in 3 or 4 years, so the RPI will come in handy as we travel across this beautiful country. $10.00 a night in non-home parks.
The membership also came with Coast to Coast too.

Just a typical membership park.

Thanks for the info and advice. I think I'll pass on their sales pitch. If it was low pressure I might be tempted, but I'm not really interested in becoming a member of a private CG when there are so many cool places to go see in so many different places.
