One way to search Craigslist would be to locate towns near TT parks (check TT website) and start your search there. We have 2 in NC so check Winston-Salem, Charlotte, and Hickory.

Just a quick check showed several. I found one in Portland, OR for transfer fee only ($750).
Be careful. Not all memberships cover all parks. There was one listed in Hickory, NC that only covered 6 parks.

You asked about C2C as a filler. We use our RPI as a filler. Hart Ranch in SD, $10 a night for Sturgis, Hot springs in Canada, 5 star resort. RPI and C2C use most of the same parks. Some good, some bad.

I noticed you are looking for a camping membership. Thanks for all your posts because I am learning from them.

If your from the West coast its a good deal, but do look into buying a resale. The RPI dues were separate with our membership but sounded like they were included but a year latter I got a bill for a additional $149.
I really feel we got stung on the entry fee. Next year I will get some use out of it when we pull to WA. Saw the description of your rig, stay away from La Conner WA resort old park not many large campsites, damaged my new truck trying to get past a vehicle parked in the road because the campsite was too small for truck and trailer.
Good luck .............John

Bumpy ...I agree 9.95 s/h, But wait if I buy today I get 2 for the same price..


I believe paperwork is involved and a another dollar of profit...

John: Also with a 40 ft Rig and eventually a Dinghy landing area needs to be large.

Thanks..
