question about using the escapees discount

[hamrs_62]

I have been finding out that when you use your card a RV parks you have a limit of 2 to four days, and then have to pay full price, are the parks that give you a discount only the escapees parks run by the organization, I happen to have FMCA, Passport, Goodsam, and Escappes,

There are Escapee Parks which give Escapee members a discount and there are also Discount Parks which give you a set discount for a limited time. At Escapee Parks you will pay a lower price for daily, weekly and monthly, with no limit. The Discount Parks set their own rules as to how many days a discount will be honored. Similar to PA parks. I am not sure if there is a limit at FMCA and Good Sam Parks.

I would think that you have to look at the disclosers at each park.  As you know with PPA they all very from the amount of days and times of year. If you make reservations, why not ask the CG?

The best place to learn about the Escapee camping options is to visit the RV Parking pages and check out each of the different choices there. The Rainbow parks are the ones actually owned by the Escapees organization and they give members a significant discount (typically about 20-25% on all visits. Then are the co-op parks that were started by Escapees but as memberships were bought the ownership passed to those members and each one now manages its self and they maintain loose ties to the club. Next is the discount directory where the parks are not owned or in any way tied to the club but they give members a discount, some 15% on all stays and others 50% but for a limited number of nights. The last section is the "day's end directory" which is a listing of free or inexpensive places to stop for a night and it is maintained by a club member for a small fee and is compiled from the Day's End listings that are published in each issue of the magazine.

I have run into this where the write up on the Escapee's page is not what the park honors when you call them.  I do send a note to Escapee's but that doesn't necessarily mean they change the listing, unfortunately.

I have had this with PA parks.
