Franchisee Stories

Joey Coleman & Rick Coleman – Tabor City, NC
In 2001, we began a unique challenge to build a campground on our family farm 35 miles inland from Myrtle Beach. People responded to our design of large concrete pads, full hook-ups, plenty of open space, and ultimate customer service. But we soon had “growing pains” with procedures and operations.
In 2003, we joined Jellystone Park™. The operations guidelines set by the franchise provided us with very successful and proven standards. Activity program guidelines, amenity requirements, customer service support, and financial information were all available to our franchise once we became a member of the Yogi Bear™ family. The investment paid immediate returns as customers recognized the value of Yogi Bear™ to our operation.
Look no further if you desire to be a member of the most successful family camping destination organization. Go Yogi Bear™!
