Emerald Cove

So with the new MoHo comes the sales pitch for free nights at Emerald Cove. Worth the hassle of their presentation to enjoy a weekend in Parker?

If you can avoid them when you are supposed to have "the pitch", might be alright.

I am not a member, but have a few friends who are. I got them to invite another of my friends up on that free deal, EC even provided the trailer for them to stay in. Sunday morning they got kidnapped for 2-3 hours,, with some high pressure type sales, and stories about how they could not get the same membership deal if they walked away that day.

They actually did want the membership, but it was tons of money ($11k is what they were being told for the premium deal). Anyway,, we all came back home, I got on the internet and found someone selling the same package for $3k, with none of the regular transfer fees and restrictions since they had been given a wrong story about how fast the current was at the Needles location they were interested in. Sales people were not real happy with him when he showed up to sign papers, but it was all a legit deal.

As I said, I am not a member, but know quite a bit from having stayed there numerous times with friends in the past several years. Besides the membership, there is some annual "maintenance fee". It tends to get a bit crazy on big weekends,, 450 spots there or something. They do have one mile of beach, two pools and two jacuzzis with a bar in between, decent little store, etc.

So taking the sales tactic out of it, is it a nice place on the river to stay?

So will the weekend and park amenities be worth 90 minutes of my time?

When you show up just tell them that you have had all your accounts frozen by the IRS....not even sure how you're going to pay for gas on the way home...................it WON'T take 90 minutes......trust me :D

My buddy sat thru it, and had a nice stay there. I told a guy from work about it and he's gonna do the same thing. Emerald has a nice store, along with 2 pools with a bar and food and the launch is really nice. For $10.00 they will hook up to your boat and launch it.

I think so, Don't let them assign you a spot to camp, pick a nice spot and tell them what spot your in, may want to get something closer to pool if you like to swim or hit pool bar(cheap cold beers)! The guy who is the closer is a hard ass, so work him over lol. I like the place, lots to do if you have kids.

Just in-case you do end up liking the place, i have seen memberships going for free, i think the transfer fee is around 1400 bucks.

I have a membership there and it served its purpose and no longer going to need or use it. I used the shit out of it. Cheap way to be at the river. IMO.

I will sell it :)
