I suggest that you identify some of their parks that you might want to visit then look at the reviews here.
By the way, you can buy Thousand Trails memberships on the resale market dirt cheap. You need to look at the details of each contract, though. -------------------- Dave Rudisill

Hi,
Unless you full time Thousand Trails may be a poor choice. I'd be extremely careful before I signed up. This site may be of use to you: http://freecampsites.net/ -------------------- Regards,

They can be like an STD, you have it for life and are responsible for the fees forever (unless otherwise stated).

I had been led to understand that those "forever" contracts had been overturned in the courts and were no longer used. Not that I care to buy one anyway, but I was curious. -------------------- Joel Weiss

For about $500 we bought a regional 1 year membership last summer. We just started full-timing and they had a park conveniently located near our daughter. Stayed there for the better part of the Christmas holidays. Good experience. Went out of the area for awhile and tried to return without reservations. We were told winter in So Cal was there big season and nothing was available. Spent 2 weeks instead at a top of the line resort nearby that had plenty of space available. Of all the Thousand Trails we've visited, we would only have stayed at the one near our daughter. They all seem to be older parks that require a membership approach to stay afloat. I'd suggest you check this website's posted review of the parks you might use. For myself, when in So Cal in the late spring, I'll give them one more try. But their proximity to both a dairy and a chicken farm may result in our not renewing the membership.
