He raves about giant chess at every one of his 9 campgrounds and is an active ambassador for this low-maintenance, high-visibility giant chess game. He says, its the perfect piece!, the guys with the most toys win, and we never give our clientele a chance to get bored!

Bud insists, the price point makes giant chess work for every campground owner, but its not one of those items you can get at Menard’s, Walmart, or Costco so not that many campgrounds have them.

He hears things like, wow, thats cool and sees father/son and mother/daughter pairs enjoying it for 10 or more minutes at a time.  Its a family experience – and its memorable.

Bud calls ChessHouse any time he opens a new campground or in the rare event a piece goes missing.

Owner Stuart Curry recently added a giant chess set to the mix of activities available.  He set it up in the gym. “The set was a hit. I was totally amazed how many kids new how to play chess, and how many joined in to play”. It was a great experience for the kids throughout the summer.

The durable, all-weather giant chess set used by Stuart is designed for indoor and outdoor use and is ideal for camps, campgrounds, and almost any type of recreational facility.
