We price our resort slightly above most area campgrounds because of the location and amenities are offering. Campgrounds in the area charge from $22.00 (Ship a Shore) a night to a high of $32.50 (Four Seasons Resort) We want to work our way up to higher of these prices. Park models in the area rent from $65 (Four Seasons) a night to $119 (White Rock Resort) per night. Our cottages range from $129 to $189. RV spaces are $34.00 to $44.50.
There are those in the industry who say if a resort doesn't turn away 10% of it's customers because they believe the price is too high, the resort is not charging enough.
Sale of cottages would be competitive with the area. Depending on the type, they range from $65,000 (Port Side RV) to $185,000 (White Rock). A park model is defined as no more than 400 square feet of living space, maximum of 40 feet long and 12 feet wide, stick framed but mobile, though the wheels and axle can be removed. They are not self contained, have a regular tank toilet and run on conventional voltage. They can be added on to create a much larger space, 840 square feet maximum, plus the addition of outbuildings, garage, storage shed, etc. They are what is used exclusively at White Rock and extensively at Whales Head.
We would like to put in 60 - 70 park models, with a market price of $79,900 to $130,000 plus space lease, and rental of the unit to travelers other than the owners.
