Meet Your Hosts
"We got into campground ownership because it is a family-oriented business. Our three children work with us, so we are always together. Before, the kids were in daycare," says Rachel. "We are very proud of how we've been able to implement improvements to our park over the past six years and create a clean, family park."
"There is no business without the customer; providing quality customer service is our number one priority. We want our campers to leave with positive memories of great family experiences, and let others know about those experiences," says Rachel.
The Kaisers were already familiar with customer service through Rob's experience as the owner of a masonry business for 10 years. Rachel worked as an environmental engineering consultant for 10 years as well.
"We camped before we owned our campground. One year we went on a trip and stayed at many private campgrounds and saw that many of them were owned by younger families like us. We thought campground ownership looked like fun! When we got home, Rob saw a campground for sale in the newspaper…and here we are!"
Besides camping and business ownership, Rob enjoys cars and 'anything with a motor'; Rachel loves to bake (while trying to not eat all of her creations) and crafting.
