Last week we announced Shirley Wilkenson as the first winner of our 1st ever Facebook contest. Shirley’s prize was a complimentary week stay at her choice of any of our 7 non-membership, pet-friendly Southern California RV resort properties.  Shirley, tickled to share with her big win with her husband and two dogs, said choosing which RV Park to visit was a tough decision for her and her family.  They have already had amazing stays at the Emerald Desert RV Resort in Palm Desert and the San Diego RV Resort, but have yet to venture to our outdoor resort properties in El Cajon, Escondido or Hemet. After dliberation, the good fortuned Facebook fans plan on using their prize stay, valued at up to $700.00, at Emerald Desert in July.

The Wilkenson’s who call that location their favorite RV Resort, like it HOT; not just weather wise but in their entertainment as well.
