FRISCO, Texas -- Thousand Trails, Inc., operator and owner of America's largest and most successful private camping clubs, today announced the launch of its new Getaway Club Membership.
A Getaway Club membership includes access to over 50 camping preserves within the nationwide Thousand Trails, NACO and Leisure Time campground systems and priority use of the exclusive Getaway Units at select preserves -- including 10 preserves in California.
"The Getaway Club provides members with a variety of rental accommodations located near exciting vacation destinations such as Hershey Park, Pa. and Walt Disney World Resort, Fla.," said Jerry Gelinas, V.P. Sales & Marketing for Thousand Trails.
Each of the preserves offer quality amenities featuring resort-style camping along with endless outdoor recreation options including swimming pools, member lodges, nature trails and separate children's recreation areas.
The new high-end Getaway Units feature luxury conveniences including linen packages, a flat screen television, satellite TV, a fireplace and surround sound stereo. Additionally, each unit comfortably sleeps six and also is equipped with a BBQ grill as well as everything needed for family or group gatherings and outdoor entertaining.
Getaway Club members also can select to overnight in alternative accommodations including cabins and cottages that sleep up to six people and are available in a variety of styles; yurts, a large, dome-shaped, circular tent-style structure featuring weather proof roof and skylights; garden homes and park models offering members a larger and more spacious living space; and vacation trailers ranging from 24- to 35-feet.
"We see a real need among younger families and ex-RVers for the Getaway Club," said Gelinas. "The club allows individuals to still enjoy the camping lifestyle without the expense of an RV."
