As summer gives way to autumn, most campers’ thoughts turn
to thoughts of school starting, autumn campfires, and Halloween Weekends.
While you're enjoying those camping weekends, maybe it's time to think about
next summer, and begin planning your family’s camping vacation time! Why
not make it less work and maximize your families use of your RV?
Here are some reasons
why we think Seasonal camping at Meadville KOA might be the right choice for
your family!
The Price is right!
When you compare our unlimited seasonal camping rates to overnight camping, the
discount you get by being a seasonal camper is huge! Most campgrounds
provide similar services and activities, but ask about extras! Some
campgrounds provide all inclusive seasonal rates like we do, and some do
not. Make sure you know exactly what your expenses will be before you
sign that Seasonal Camping Agreement! When you do the math, you’ll
find that the price is right!
What’s included in
the Seasonal Rate?
Ø
We do the mowing! That is a premium
service. Meadville KOA Campground is the only campground in NW PA that
offers that at no additional charge. What that means is no mower to buy,
transport or store. No gas to buy and transport, and no work! You
can spend more time having fun and less time working! Even more
importantly, it makes our park quiet. There aren’t mowers running on
Saturdays when you’re trying to relax and enjoy sleeping in. Oh, and it makes
is safer for you, your family, vehicles, and RV.
Ø
Unlimited camping for 2 adults and 2 children,
or a 3rd adult. Most campgrounds charge extra for extra adults.
Ø
Seasonal Campsites have water, sewer, refuse,
and the electric is metered. The water, sewer, and garbage services are
included in your seasonal rate. The electric (and we offer 30 and 50 amp)
are metered, which means you only pay for what you use.
Ø
Wi-Fi and cable TV are included! We
provide Wi-Fi to all of our Seasonal campsites, and each campsite has 48
channels of Cable TV. Channels include Disney, ESPN, Movie Channels, 5
local channels, The Weather Channel, Movie channels, sports channels, and
more! They make camping on rainy weekends easier with, or without the
kids or grand kids!
Ø
Themed event weekend’s planned activities are
included! We even include children’s crafts and meals for the people
listed on your seasonal camping agreement! Where else do you get that?
Ø
We have a reduced, pre-paid visitor’s program,
and a reduced pre-paid extra camper program for your extended family
members. It’s affordable and allows your extended family to come enjoy
the campground!
Ø
We have a reduced cost fun band for the rental
amenities! It’s affordable and will keep your tweens and teens busy!
Ø
The rate includes your on site winter storage of
your RV! (With your deposit and signed camping agreement for the
following season.)
Ø
We have an interest-free payment plan with
rebates! Get a $75 rebate if you pay in full at the time your sign a
Seasonal Camping Agreement with us (now through Oct 21). And a $50.00
rebate if you pay in full by January 1! That helps make it fit your
family budget!
Ø
Right now is the perfect time to select a
site! Like most campgrounds, we have a few openings for next season this
time of year. So it’s the perfect time to shop for a campsite! Don’t
forget that we have a winter payment plan and we even include on site winter
storage in the fees! If you normally pay for a storage facility, that’ll
save you even more money!
Our sites are
spacious! Our sites are roomy, with full size trees in a pretty rural
setting. So your family has some privacy and space for fun.
Our campground is in
a pretty, rural setting! It isn’t unusual to see birds (king fishers,
orioles, turkeys, etc.), deer, and even an occasional bear.
Save more by getting
an early bird discount! You can save even more money by paying for
your campsite early. We provide that $75 rebate off the $2450 if you’re
paid in full by now through Oct 21. And a $50.00 rebate if you pay in
full by Jan. 1!
Meet new people!
Seasonal campers are like a small community. They become friends, hang
out, play cards or yard games, have group campfires, their children become
friends, play together, and much more! Many volunteer to help with
activities and events and bring lots of fun to their camping environment in a
family friendly way! What a great way to meet new people and make new
friends! We hope you’ll consider joining our KOA family!
We’re a family
campground! We run a family campground that caters to families of all
ages. There aren’t golf carts racing around, there are quiet hours,
etc. We are all about family fun! We want your family to create a
lifetime of memories from camping here! That is our goal! And we
have 3rd and now 4th generations of campers camping here at Meadville
KOA!
We save you work!
Camping is never work free. But, you can save all the work of hooking up,
unhooking, setting, up, tearing down, and towing expenses by camping
seasonally. You get a vacation home away from home, for about the price
of one vacation! Now that’s a savings and it makes vacationing every weekend
all season long even easier! Vacation right into autumn and enjoy the
fall foliage and autumn events and activities, and who doesn’t love sitting
around a campfire in the spring and autumn?
What if right now
isn’t the right time? It’s okay. Contact us in the spring and
we can show you sites in April, in preparation for the summer camping
season. But why not select that now, and have it all paid off so you’re
ready to move in and start camping? What a great gift for your
family! Did we mention that you can park your RV on your site now, and
that free, on site winter storage is included with your campsite fee? Why not save those storage facility costs?
Make the right
choice! Seasonal camping maximizes your summer vacation time and use
of your RV while minimizing your expenses! It can provide your family a
summer full of fun, family oriented camping experiences for about the same
price as one vacation! Make sure you take a little time to consider that
idea, and how it can help your family get the biggest bang for your buck next
summer! Then, we hope you’ll start looking at local campgrounds and
thinking about becoming a seasonal camper! It’s not too late to move into
a site this fall! Campground owners are looking forward to talking with
you and showing you all the fun events and activities we’re already planning
for next summer!
