I would highly recommend Randy Hendrickson and his staff of experts at Horizon RV Resorts. As we neared completion of our RV park, we knew we had a beautiful place where people would want to stay. What we didn't have was the time or expertise necessary for day-to-day operations or to successfully market the property. Partnering with Horizon made the transition from construction to grand opening seamless. Randy's vast experience and knowledge of the RV industry is invaluable, and his staff is extremely efficient and helpful. Their friendly, positive attitudes make working together a pleasure.

I have been most impressed with (Randy's) ability to get things done that he says he will complete, and on time. He has the uncanny ability to rally the troops around a focused effort while protecting team morale. Randall is very proficient, a great administrator, works well with his team, and knows what he wants to maximize profitability. Randall served on the Board of Directors of which I answered to, and he has always presented a positive, can-do approach to every project we encountered. He is very supportive to folks around him and quick to offer assistance and positive reinforcement, even in areas where there may need to be some constructive criticism. I enjoy working with Randy on advertising and marketing projects for his RV park clients. I consider Randy a professional and one of the best in his field.

While in the early planning stages of our first RV park development our crushing need for a knowledgeable and effective RV park consultant led me to research firms offering these consulting services. After careful consideration of their respective web sites and biographical content I narrowed my list down to a handful and began the interview process. When I contacted Randy by phone it was immediately apparent his 'hands on' experience depth and breadth from owning and/or managing RV resorts and parks would qualify him. But it was and still is his thoughtful and insightful manner of effectively communicating that allows him to leverage his invaluable experience for his clients success!
