Happy May Campers! We are happy to spotlight Dan this month.
Many of you know Dan Hamilton. Dan has been on the maintenance staff since he was 16 years old and has grown up at the Resort. Please make sure that you say hello and look for him when you come back this spring. Dan is always available to help members and staff with a smile. Dan has been a dependable and responsible staff member, and you can usually find him completing daily maintenance tasks in the summer and working on projects in the winter. During the winter months, most of Dan’s time is spent plowing and shoveling walkways. As time allows, he works on special projects that we’re too busy to accomplish during the summer months. Dan and his wife Alicia, have 2 boys and live in the local area. He enjoys his “home life” and is always available for the boys after-school games. In addition to spending time with his family, he is an avid hunter.
We have had a beautiful April at Bass Lake; the flowers are growing, and the grass is starting to green. We have been able to get outside and clean up from winter and get some of our projects done.

Steve Baldelli
Steve Baldelli started Travel Resorts in 1986 at the age of 27 after a call from his friend Jim who had found some beautiful property in Pinehurst, North Carolina after a round of golf. Steve flew down from Minnesota to come to see the land and when he got there, there were 12 unfinished RV sites, a lodge, and a hole in the ground that was supposed to be a pool. He fell in love. Steve and his partner had no idea how to run a campground, but he knew he wanted to focus on three things: Taking people out of their normal element, making it close enough to home but far enough away to be a get-away, and making it affordable so all families could enjoy the campgrounds together multiple times a year.
35 years later, Steve has built Travel Resorts into 11 premier RV campgrounds from Florida to New York and now just recently has started venturing into the Midwest!
As a father of 3, an avid wine connoisseur, foodie, and lover of travel, Steve lives a busy adventurous life, but his heart is in providing the best camping memories to his members. You can find him at any of the resorts throughout the year, interacting with members, planting fun ideas in the activities directors’ heads, and always thinking about how to enhance our members’ experience. Because of Steve and his vision, Travel Resorts really is the definition of the Pursuit of Happiness.
