We go to Breck every summer for a break from the Midwestern heat. Tiger run is a great resort and there is indeed many things to do in the area.
One challenge with large groups at tiger run is the lots are owned by individuals and they don't guarantee specific sites will be available. The owner has the right to show up anytime and boot you off. We have had to move sites multiple times while staying there after having a site "reserved".

Tigers Run is in a great location , but no longer a park that can accommodate a rally group imo. most of the sites have been converted in the past few years to park models and structures for year round living for college students, Ski workers , etc. We too have had to move when an owner showed, but that was not a big deal, but Summer availability for 20 to 30 sites is impossible. Last Summer they were completely booked in July and August as we tried months before to get a2 week reservation and only 2 days were available and not concurrent.

How about Estes Park, CO area? We stayed a few days at Elk Meadows RV park. Not nearly as nice as tiger run (gravel sites) but they could accommodate larger group. we enjoyed the area. I know there are many other RV parks in the Estes Park area but don't know what they are like.

I looked at the various sites for the many camp grounds in the west Yellowstone area. Any of these four look like they could work, the last one is a little further out, 13 miles, but looks nice. There are several campgrounds that look too small.

When posting your suggestions it is important that they are researched first to see what amenities there are, availability in June or July and price of course. Without some simple facts this discussion will go round in circles. Clark and Elaine are in Tahoe in a great campground and since they work there have the connection and it would be good to consider that aspect. I gathered and posted a couple of months ago info on quail Ridge in AZ and when Steve got us ARK he proposed it with all the details, so please get some as not to keep adding names without facts about staying. I am not trying to be pushy or rude here , just trying to "cut to the chase" and encourage everyones participation by making a call or two themselves for us all. Thanks

Larry, my post on Yellowstone KOA Mountainside was based on a telephone discussion with the owner.

I knew that Chester and the members that just posted names or links and personal likes is what I was referring to after 30 posts and we haven't gotten anywhere except West it seems. Just trying to get others that don't make the calls to think about doing it.
I still think that Clarkes offer to look into his place in Tahoe should have been acknowledged and get some info, but nobody seemed to show interest in it, but me lolol. I love that area and have been many times. I alsso got with the owner of Quail Ridge in the AZ high desert and we were offered our own section and $16 a night, but no interest and I agree with you that we should have an amenties rich resort or towns close by with good stuff to do and eat ... Colorado would be nice or even NM but in the summer impossible to do a rally and be together somewhat.

What about east TN? Anchor Down RV resort is new with 180 sites on Douglas lake. Smokies Mountains, Dollywood, Dills Gaps, Wind Rock, Gatlinburg, Knoxville, and close to 3 interstate. Early June would be nice weather. Much to do close by Pigeon Forge. If any interest I will make contacts. I will delay my trip to CO. For July.
