I have been a Gold Alliance member since 1991. Recently I tried to sell my membership only to find out THEY have dropped the "Gold" portion of my membership and now I am only an Alliance member. I've been paying over 20 yrs for what???

You have not seen a casino there because the camp ground is still there. It is fenced off for now!
I just was by there stop making up stories! The state wanted to build a hostpital there but decided to build it elde where.
ELS the company that bought thousand Trail, naco, ltr,outdoorworld and others are trying to get it back as we speak.
they are spending millions on parks now to fix them up . If you don't want your membership I will buy it from you as they no longer offer liftime memberships. I love the camp grounds and you don't know what your talking about!
You have either been lied to or are just making this up I aminvolved with this great new company that have saved allof your parks. I'm sorry you are not happy like the other 125,000 other member who love it. butyou can't please everyone!
Happy Camping!

I agree. This company can be user friendly and then negative at the same time. When trying to end the contract they put up many barriers. My wife and I would be interested in any class action pursued. We have tried to give away our membership without success. When we inform them we are going to cancel the membership, we are told we will have to go to court or we must pay a huge fee.

Hello, My name is Jeff Louis. My business partner Michael Maus and myself are also "Gold Elite" members of Thousand Trails RV Resorts for about one year now and we have already had serious issues with the way the company does things and allows things to be done by management (David Watkins/Pio Pico RV Park) that are just flat out not ok...and they allow it to be done without any recourse, or any remorse of any kind...and that is just not ok! We have met with other members and lessees also quite upset at the way they were lied to and yet they paid all their dues and still have yet to receive what was promised. So now we are here to help and add our hard evidence, knowledge of the court room, connections and assistance in any way we can. Please have this couple get back to us asap, so we can start getting this thing organized. If we do this right, it can be done peacefully where everyone wins, even the crooked corporation will make more money and actually have happy members/families...and especially children, whom have all said these parks suck and very boring... Time to change that. If the corporation chooses not to do the right thing, then we are looking at some really high level "class-action" law suites being implemented and we are one of them...ready and present.

The individual whom reported the NACO issue does not have all of the information and has not followed through with research to have a proper analysis on the resorts.
My family has been members of NACO in Spokane since 1979. At the very beginning of the resorts people were more than willing to travel cross country. Now consumers are looking in his/her back yard for resorts just to get out of the city.
At first all of these business were seperate and in the past 10 years the resorts have been merging. This allows the members to keep his/her membership just for NACO or any other merge company. The company has been diligent with keeping members informed of new out comes, but it is actually up to you to research the information.
When the companies merged the members had a chance to go with the merge or keep the membership as is. So, if a member did not choose to merge with all companies it was the individuals choice.
I received my membership 10 years ago by my father for Christmas and he has paid the dues every year. We take advantage of the resorts in Washington and Oregon. Even before we leave we talk to the main office to reserve our place and make sure changes have not occured.
In regards to the NACO closing it does not matter if it became a Casino or Hospital because it is no longer there. When property comes up for sale several business may ask for the property and usually the company does not know who is purchasing it. At least the company told you the site was closed.
Please research and talk to the company first before stating information that is inaccurate.

Hello Sherry;
I found your report very interesting. I have been a member since 1990 and found your report on
Grady Creek Resort replacing Cascade very confusing. I do not understand that replacement
since I still have materials of what resorts Leisure Time had open in 1990. The only time I have
known Grady Creek not to be open in the 90's was during winter when it was dangerous to
travel there.
I joined at Cascade Resort and always have been confused about my home resort being at
Oceana Resort. I am disappointed in Cascade selling and was told exact reason you were
given in losing my closest resort to my home.
I have been insulted in a meeting several years ago by a NATO reprensenative and several
nasty things were said to me when I was late for the meeting. I find that the only time I am
contacted is when they want to sell me another package.
Last year when I went by Paradise Resort, (for a day trip) I was impress by new management
there. He was making an effort to not only clean up the grounds but, there was a big improvement from all the staff. The time previously was a real disaster and that's another story.
