Columbus Day weekend trip 10/05/07

[tlhdoc]

Who is up for camping on Columbus Day weekend? I know I am, but I haven't made reservations anywhere yet and it is driving me crazy.
 
We are camping at Codorus State Park, PA. October 5th weekend (Columbus Day Weekend).

Tnis is near my BD, AND I get a 3 day weekend.

Ricketts Glen (that is Red Rock??? right??) is a little far as is Rocky Gap, even for a 3 day weekend for me. So I will not commit right now.

Lets go someplace that I haven't been so I can get a new sticker...It is all about me, you know.  :p

[HersheyGirl]

Elk Neck was nice, but we have been there. :confused:

[tlhdoc]

Ok Beckie and Paula where do YOU want to go???  That is why I posted before picking a campground.

[SheBantam]

Becky, what sticker do you need? Is it within a 2 to 3 hour drive?

lets see, "we" have not been to Trapps Pond, but that is too far for Tracy for a weekend...What is up around you? that is sorta half way between.

I'd suggest Greenbelt NP, but that may be too far also.  

Kershner was talking about the campground right down the street from his house...or maybe even his house...

This weekend we (the women that camped Paula, Beckie, Nancy and I) decided that we are going back to Cunningham Falls for Columbus day weekend.  We were going to camp in the Manor section, but when I came home and tried to make a reservation I found out after 09-04-2007 it is first come/first serve until they close for the year.  So do we want to chance it or make reservations in the Houck area?

Who else wants to camp that weekend(October 5-8)?

[SheBantam]

I'd rather not chance it, I wanna camp site.  Houck is not bad, BUT NO PETS.  Do we want to reserve at a PET friendly place? Like French Creek???  Hey it is "close" to Becky Sara and I. I think French Creek is Pet friendly, and cheaper the MD state parks.

I would prefer to have a guaranteed site.

Hey all,

I vote for a pet site and I would go to Cunningham Falls in a heartbeat, but am open to suggestions.  I want to bring my nappy dog with.  She is currently nappy because of her bad haircut.  She is, however, feeling much better and is on the mend.

[tlhdoc]

OK, it looks like Cunningham Falls is out for Columbus Day weekend.  Is there somewhere new that everyone would like to go to?  Hickory Run SP and French Creek SP both have pet sites, but we have been there.  I am willing to go back or try a new place.  Any suggestions?

Well, being new to this forum and having never camped with any one from the COTOC (that I know of) by I be so bold as to suggest Promised Land State Park, I seem to remember they have quite a few pet sites.

Hi Rich and welcome to COTOC!  Promised Land is on my list of parks to go to, but I think it is too far north for Shebantam and My toys.  We are trying to find a campground that is central for DE, MD, PA for this trip.  Any chance you will join us?

[SheBantam]

Promised Land is about 30 miles further than Cunningham Falls for me.

I looked on the PA DNR web site and see Cordus has pet sites.  It is in York County.

Codorus pet sites: 43-49, 76-86, 132, 134, 135, 137, 139-144, 177, 178, 180, 183, 184

I was thinking about Codorus too...seems like a reasonable distance for all.
