From Reno to Rustic Acres: Our Story on The RV Entrepreneur Podcast
Have you ever dreamed of buying an old campground and turning it into something truly special?
That’s exactly what we did—and we’re thrilled to share the story behind it on the latest episode of The RV Entrepreneur Podcast!
In Episode #393, "Building Community One Campsite at a Time," Michelle sat down with host Jim Nelson to talk about how she and her husband, Connor, took a leap of faith on a neglected RV park in western Pennsylvania—and turned it into Rustic Acres RV Resort and Campground.
We get real about:
- Why we took the risk to buy and renovate a 50-year-old campground
- The behind-the-scenes work to rebuild infrastructure and improve the guest experience
- What it's like to create a community-minded space for RVers, remote workers, and digital nomads
- The lessons we’ve learned (and are still learning!) on this wild and rewarding journey
Whether you're a fellow RVer, a hopeful campground owner, or just someone who loves a good before-and-after story, we hope you'll give it a listen.
