airstream park

I like your concept and am planning to do a similar type of airstream set-up in southern New Mexico. My concept is more of a rent-a-ranch concept catering to airstream owners and travelers. Here is how it would work. Rent a full-hook up site with a min 3 night stay. Pull-thru level with view of a mountain. picnic table, fire ring and firewood provided along with wi-fi. The beauty is that once you rent the ranch it is your personal space and don"t have to share it with other rv's even though a couple of other spaces are available if they are part of your party. Privacy and solitude are yours since this is an 80 acres ranch that affords ideal stargazing and close access (within an hour) of various tourist spots.
The reason I would cater to airstreamers is that they have the characteristics of the type of people I would welcome at the ranch. They are typically, friendly, thoughtful, fun seeking with a pride of ownership for their rigs and their surroundings. Oh by the way I do own and have traveled in my airstream. (A 1994 34 foot Excella) I say go for it and best of luck. Ernesto

Airstream park in Branson, Missouri

Greetings michaelhyams!

Your idea is intriguing, and in these days of high fuel costs, Branson is a convenient drive from my home (about 5 hours). While I wouldn't be making the trip frequently, probably only twice per year, a park like you describe would certainly be interesting as a destination.

When you mention having cabins or other sleeping accommodations that visitors could rent something occurred to me, why not have a few Airstreams (new or tastefully refurbished Vintage) that visitors could rent? I know that this is not a unique conecpt as there are several parks with variations of this theme -- the first that I heard of was Shady Dell in Bisby, AZ. I suspect that Airstreams that travelers could rent during their stay in Branson might be very popular.

Good luck with your research and investigation!

Kevin
