We joined both that and Harvest Hosts this year and I have gotten little use, but there is still hope. I know it won't happen on the way to Mansfield. I am planning to bring the coach, but it is only a little long on walking distance for us.
I have some interesting news to relate to members of either.

I also joined Harvest Hosts, but have been too busy with the new garage to take advantage. I had not heard of Boondockers Welcome before. Sounds like something I will try next season.
The first trip of the year for me might be Mansfield.

I also joined Boondockers, although haven't had an opportunity to take advantage of any of their host sites, and I don't have any place to offer as a host. Many of them don't want pets, which I can understand, but that limits me, since I always have the pups with me. Haven't looked into Harvest Hosts, though I have heard of them.
What have you heard, Matt?

Richard,
Harvest Hosts is a definite time membership, so, according to their rules you will loose out... .
But, if you were to contact them and tell them that due to circumstances beyond your control you could not take advantage of the membership, they might extend it for you.

Deb,
If you are a member of BW, you can get a deal on joining HH. I don't know what the relation ship is, but the deal is better than nothing.....

It's a 20% discount (since you brought it up, I went back and checked - and just used it!). Pretty decent. I will look at taking full advantage of them next season. Came to ~$100 total for both.
Just FYI, if anyone is interested, if you haven't joined either yet, if you use the code RVGEEKS10 (http://thervgeeks.com) you can get a 10% off on the Boondockers membership fee as well. There are also a few other discounts there (including your FMCA membership for next time maybe?)
