Memberships


The information I have listed below has been taken directly from each company's website. I do not endorse or recommend any of these membership clubs. You should go on line and research each of them on your own.

                   Thousand Trails
Select the Zone (region) that you want to camp in below. The enrollment for One Zone is $0—you only pay the $525 annual fee (less than $44 per month)! You can also add Multiple Zones with a one time enrollment of $795 for each additional Zone—or enroll in all four Zones for just $1,995 (a $1,185 savings!) No matter how many Zones you purchase, your annual fee is just $525.

How Our Annual Camping Pass Works


Year Round Camping Starting at $525!


The Zone Camping Pass is an annual camping pass that provides flexible, any-time access at Thousand Trails—America's premier network of family campgrounds. Customize your annual camping pass by selecting the "zone" (region) you want to camp in, or buy a multizone pass to expand your access. You pay only for the zones you want to camp in. It's that simple.

No matter how many zones you purchase, your annual fee is just $525. That comes to less than $44 a month. And for a limited time, the one-time enrollment fee is waived for the first zone you purchase.

After your first 30 days of camping each year, a modest daily usage fee of $3 will be charged, to defray the costs of our amenities.



                                               Coast to Coast


I could not find any prices for Coast to Coast on their site.



To become a Coast to Coast member, you first must join any one of the affiliated membership campgrounds which becomes your "home resort." Once you join the home resort, you are then eligible to become a Coast to Coast member. And that means hundreds of affiliate RV resorts and campgrounds in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, literally from coast to coast, become available to you and your family for only a few dollars a night.

Coast to Coast has partnered with Camping World to provide RVers interested in joining Coast to Coast and membership camping with a free 3-day/2-night stay at one of the beautiful membership campgrounds in the Coast network

                              Escapees
About Escapees
Joe and Kay Peterson had been full-timing for eight years before they started the Escapees RV Club on July 4, 1978. There was no grand idea of what the club would become; it was started through Kay’s column in Woodall’s Trailer Travel magazine. She asked the question that if a club was started to help people enjoy RVing, would anyone be interested in joining? She received a couple dozen responses and began to think big: One day there might be one or two hundred people in the club! Today there are over 32,000 member-families. Those who joined the club were immediately asked for a name for the club. Escapees was suggested by Harry and Peg Lewis, SKP #22.
The first Escapade was held in February 1979, near Bakersfield, CA. Twenty-four families, including nine children, attended. Today Escapades are attended by as many as 1,500 members. Escapades are open to everyone regardless of whether they are a member of Escapees. Please view our Escapade pages to see if one is near you!
Rainbow’s End, in Livingston, Texas, became the Escapees headquarters in April 1984. Located in East Texas, it is six miles from Livingston and approximately 70 miles north of Houston. Rainbow’s End was the first park created, followed by seven more Rainbow Parks, eleven SKP Co-Op parks and two new Escapees Rainbow Parks Unlimited parks.
What is a SKP?
SKP was originally used as an abbreviation of Escapees. (Say S-K-P fast and it sounds like Escapees.) Many members began calling themselves SKiPs because it was easier to say. It has become a commonly used nickname. Escapees (SKPs) are Special Kinds of People who are always ready to help each other, but S-K-P can more accurately be used to designate the three distinct concepts on which the club is built.
S - Stands for SupportOne important benefit of Escapees is the support members get from each other as they travel. Because some Escapees travel long distances from their home base and families, and because they may be on the road for many months at a time, it is important to be part of an extended family of travelers. Support also includes the many benefits and optional services that the Escapees Club provides.
K - Stands for Knowledge
Members often say that the money-saving tips they get from Escapees magazine alone more than pay their annual dues. Learning is also the keynote of the annual Escapades. Going to an Escapade is like attending a concentrated five-day college course on RVing.
P - Stands for Parking
One thing that makes the Escapees RV Club different from other RV clubs is that it offers members places to park. In addition to home-base benefits for those who join an SKP Co-Op or Rainbow Park, all Escapees members may use short-term parking at Escapees parks. This includes Rainbow's End campground, located at the international headquarters in Livingston, Texas.
Helping Each Other
Escapees RV Club has a strong caring tradition that is an important part of our support network. Escapees members are well known for their volunteer spirit. You will find Escapees involved in many of your favorite charities or helping someone who is in need.
We also have an important tradition of helping fellow Escapees; wherever you see the house-in-a-wagon logo, you know there is a kindred soul. All Escapees are expected to honor the logo by giving the assistance they can when help is needed.
Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide a total support network for RVers. We are committed to excellence. We are dedicated to providing Support, Knowledge, and Parking and will never stop striving to improve. We are honest in everything we do.
Escapees offers a multitude of services, which include a mail forwarding service that caters to your personal needs, discount park system, as well as discounts on affiliated services. The fee to join Escapees is $60 per year with an enrollment fee of $10. For applications and more information about Escapees RV Club, request our information kit. If you are ready to join, visit
