FROM THE PRESIDENT PUTTING MEMBERS FIRST 20 New Coast Affiliates Added to Network
Now that we have added this PDF to our member website, we will update it on a monthly basis or more frequently as changes occur. We hope you find this useful as you make plans to travel using your Coast membership. Next year we plan to publish the first update to the 2019 Coast Directory in January, and then provide regular monthly updates during the year. See this new feature on our website and then email your feedback to CCRPresident@CoastResorts.com. And if you have a suggestion for something else we can do to make your travel planning easier, please send an email to the same address. Sunbelt Resorts and Good Neighbor Parks Snowbird Availability List Added to Coast Member Website Another member recently suggested that we provide a list of the sunbelt resorts and Good Neighbor Parks (GNPs) that have availability for Coast members during the peak snowbird months of January to March. Like the member idea on the directory update, we felt this was another excellent idea! So starting this month you can find a PDF on the directory search page of our www.CoastResorts.com website listing resorts and GNPs in the sunbelt that have availability for Coast members in the months of January, February, and March 2019. This should make it easier for our members traveling south in the first quarter to narrow their search for available places to stay using the Coast discount rate. Keep in mind that while these affiliates have inventory available to Coast members in the first quarter, inventory is available on a first come/first served basis and therefore may or may not be available when you search an individual resort or call a specific GNP. Since spaces in the sunbelt are scarce in first quarter, particularly discounted spaces, the best policy is to make your travel plans as early as possible. Remember that the early (snow) bird gets the worm…or the RV space in this case!
This issue we are pleased to welcome 20 new Good Neighbor Parks (GNPs) to the Coast to Coast network. Situated all across North America, ten of these new GNPs are located in the United States and ten are located in Canada. To view the complete list of our new parks see page 5-6 of this issue, and to view comprehensive profiles of all these new facilities visit our online directory at www.CoastResorts.com. As a reminder, starting this year Coast members make reservations directly with Good Neighbor Parks and pay GNPs directly as well. To make a reservation simply call the GNP at the number provided in the Coast Directory, identify yourself as a Coast member, check availability, and confirm your Coast member discounted rate. Coast members receive a discounted rate at GNPs that can range from $15/night to a special discounted rate that is typically 20-25% off the GNPs normal rate. Coast members can continue to make reservations at Classic, Deluxe, and Premier Resorts by using the Tripsetter reservation system on our member website or by calling Coast Member Services at 1-800-368-5721. 2018 Directory Update Directory Update PDF Now Available on CoastResorts.com Website One of our Coast members suggested that we add a PDF to our member website to recap all the resort and Good Neighbor Park (GNP) updates since the last directory. We think this is an excellent idea! So starting this month, you can find a “2018 Coast Directory Updates” PDF on the directory search page of our Coast member website, www.CoastResorts.com. This PDF lists all the resort and GNP changes since we printed the 2018 Coast Directory, including all the new GNPs announced in this issue as well as in the previous spring and summer issues.
