What a quintessential campground. So many fun things to do, it has everything! Oh, and I love corn pops.
This post makes me want to go camping this very weekend, but the thought of getting up three times a night to run to the port-a-potty keeps me from actually doing it.
Can I ask where this is? Or is it a family secret? (You can always email me.)

This is fisherman's bend near our hometown. It is seriously the best- developed to the perfect amount with running water and electricity but that same secluded feel you get when roughing it. If you are ever passing through, it's a winner.
