Title: State Park with PU rentals...
Post by: Gone-Camping on Sep 24, 2006, 09:20 PM
Now this is new.... I was checking out the website for Pocahontas State Park (near Richmond Va) and discovered that they not only have doubled the number of campsites, they have added Pop-up Rentals to five of their sites....including one of the site's that I have used in the past!

This is a bit of surprize to me....

Pictures of the campground and all the sites (all the sites in the older loop, they have added a bunch more)...

That's pretty cool! If it were us renting, I'd rather have a truer camping experience in a PU than a cabin rental.

Have you seen ReserveAmerica.com (http://ra2.reserveamerica.com/marketing.do?goto=/marketingHTML/fleetwood.html)?  They mention four other parks, and Pocahontas SP.

It's a nice marketing opportunity!  It will be interesting if the idea is spread across the country.
