Family Camping Trips
Sunday, February 17th, 2008
Family camping trips are a perfect way for families to reconnect in a natural environment away from all the stresses of work and school. There are camping destinations to suit every budget and desired activity; from amusement parks to beaches to mountain lakes.
So far our favorite family camping destinations are:
Bar Harbor, Maine Whale watching, Acadia National Park, lobsters and blueberries. Bring your appetite and your wallet!
The Adirondacks of New York (upstate) We spent time in Lake Placid; my DH was in Fly Fishing heaven
Maryland camping (our home state, so we spend a lot of time here) Assateague Island Seashore and Hagerstown
Fiesta Key KOA, Islamorada, FL The entire island is the campground. A guitarist plays Jimmy Buffet tunes at the Tiki Bar next to the pool which overlooks the water. Need I say more?
Williamsburg, Virginia (The big attractions here are not the campgrounds, but Busch Gardens Amusement Park and Historic Williamsburg and Jamestown).
Shenandoa, Virginia (this KOA doesn’t have all the amenities, but I love it. It is tucked into the woods at the base of Massanutton Mountain; big stone fire pits and a hiking trail connects the campground with the State Forest trails).
