I was trying to compare the notes section (which often seems to try to explain the specific terms for each camp) of the PA site to the camp websites, unfortunately the camp websites seem to say fairly little about the discounts.
Have users found the notes section on the PA site to be generally accurate in describing the extent of the discount at each place? This would at least allow me to have a general idea of what to expect.
I don't use the RV parks' own websites for anything related to PA, except to try to figure out what their normal rate is to see if it matches what's on the PA page.
I've never noticed the details on the PA website about the availability of the PA discount to be wildly inaccurate, and that's the information I rely on for deciding whether to look into staying at a particular place using PA.

I was amazed at how many are only good for like 2 or 3 days, I saw one that was one day in off season only???
Yep. Availability only very short stays is the norm among PA parks, which is why a lot of people use it only for overnight stopovers en route to somewhere else (and the PA parks generally aren't in popular destinations). If you really are looking at week-long stays, then PA probably won't be a very good fit.
And I'll echo others' warnings--some of the RV parks are pretty nice, but there are plenty of dogs in there, and some that I think have to get the majority of their income from monthly residents and PA members because no way would people be paying $35 for the sites there.
