How can we help you?

Are campground memberships deeded or contractual assets?2026-06-10T17:43:30+00:00

It depends on the specific network, but many private campground contracts are deeded or long-term contractual assets that provide lifetime value or can be passed down to your family members.

Are there high-pressure sales pitches involved when buying online?2026-06-10T17:42:35+00:00

No. One of the greatest benefits of the secondary market is that you completely skip the grueling 90-minute, timeshare-style retail sales presentations and browse inventory safely online at your own pace.

Can I purchase regional or resort-specific memberships on the secondary market?2026-06-10T17:40:50+00:00

Absolutely. You can buy specialized regional contracts for networks like K/M Resorts of America, Travel Resorts of America, Outdoor Adventures, Colorado River Adventures (CRA), Retrailia RV Resorts, and O’Sullivan Sportsman Resort.

Do I have to pay back dues or hidden fees when buying a pre-owned campground contract?2026-06-10T17:43:10+00:00

Not when working through a trusted brokerage. A professional brokerage meticulously audits every contract to verify back dues, manage title verification, and handle all transfer paperwork cleanly.

How do booking windows work for resale memberships?2026-06-10T17:42:04+00:00

Booking windows dictate how far in advance you can reserve an RV site. For example, networks like AOR allow members to book anywhere from 48 hours to 90 days in advance via a convenient reservation system.

How much money can I save by purchasing a membership on the resale market?2026-06-10T17:39:27+00:00

Savvy buyers routinely save anywhere from 50% to 70% off retail presentation prices by choosing legally verified pre-owned contracts on the secondary marketplace.

What exactly is a campground membership resale?2026-06-10T17:37:32+00:00

A campground membership resale is a pre-owned campground contract sold by an individual owner on the secondary marketplace rather than directly by a resort developer. This allows buyers to access the same resort networks for a fraction of the cost.

What is the difference between a reciprocal network and a Home Resort membership?2026-06-10T17:41:40+00:00

Home Resort membership is your standalone basecamp contract. A reciprocal network (like AOR or Coast to Coast) works in conjunction with your Home Resort to expand your travel footprint coast-to-coast.

What major private campground networks are available to purchase as resales?2026-06-10T17:40:27+00:00

The secondary marketplace features elite nationwide and regional networks, including Thousand Trails, Coast to Coast, Resort Parks International (RPI), and Adventure Outdoor Resorts (AOR).

Will a resale membership grant me the exact same campground access as a direct retail membership?2026-06-10T17:39:59+00:00

Yes. High-quality resale contracts deliver identical park-to-park access, reservation windows, gate codes, and resort privileges as those purchased directly from developer sales pitches
