LAS VEGAS, Nev., Dec. 6, 2010 Thirty-two campgrounds and RV resorts have earned all around A grades in the third annual consumer satisfaction survey of independent parks.
The top parks were announced at the Rio All Suites Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas during an awards ceremony Friday that was hosted by the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds.
Some 30,200 camping and RV enthusiasts participated in the online survey, which evaluated guest experiences at 2,400 independent campgrounds and RV resorts affiliated with the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds.
Twenty two of the nations 32 top parks in our survey also received A ratings last year, while 13 parks have received A ratings three years in a row, said Bob MacKinnon, president and CEO of GuestReviews, the Murrieta, Calif.-based company that created the online survey on behalf of the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds.
MacKinnon said that GuestReviews expects to survey more than 4,000 parks within the next two years. Thats nearly half of the nations private parks.
The results of the surveys are gradually being posted the websites of state and national campground associations, including GoCampingAmerica.com, the website of the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds.
The objective of these surveys is to help private campground, RV park and resort operators to pinpoint the improvements they need to make to provide their guests with the best possible camping experience, said Linda Profaizer, president and CEO of the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds.
Consumers are invited to submit their own reviews of private campgrounds and RV resorts they have recently visited by logging on to www.gocampingamerica.com and clicking on the Review a Park tab. Survey results will eventually be posted on the GoCampingAmerica website.
The GuestReviews national online survey program was launched in February 2008 in collaboration with the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds.
For more information about the GuestReviews survey, please contact Bob MacKinnon of GuestReviews.com at (877) 707-7080 as well as Linda Profaizer at the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds at (303) 681-0401. Also be sure to visit www.guestreviews.com and www.gocampingamerica.com.
