Depending on how often you hit the road with your RV, you may be able to save big money by taking advantage of various RV and camping memberships.
With so many memberships and clubs out there, it’s hard to know which ones are worth the cost and which ones aren’t. A few things to consider when shopping around for memberships:
Limited number of parks
With most memberships, discounts are limited to specific parks. You’ll have to consult a directory or website to see how many/what types of parks are included. If you travel frequently in a certain region, it’s worth seeking out memberships that cater to these regions. If you know you’ll be taking a trip through California soon, you may want to look for memberships that offer plenty of park/camping options in California. A bit of research will help you find a membership that provides the best benefits.
Restrictions
Most memberships also have certain restrictions such as discounts only valid for one night stays, discounts only valid on weekdays, etc. Depending on when and how you travel, these may not be an issue but definitely be sure to find out all the restrictions before you purchase the membership.
Benefits
Even with these restrictions, memberships often have great benefits including up to 50% off your stay, roadside assistance, mail forwarding services, social clubs, annual rallies with entertainment and more. There are also usually clubs specific to the type of RV you drive. Each club offers something unique and it’s worth comparing the different benefits to find the right club for you.
Below are some of the more popular clubs and memberships, so you can compare for yourself.
