We decided to stay a little closer to home this camping season and this past weekend was no exception. We went to campground in northwestern NJ in the Kittaninny Mountains. One thing I can say for certain about NJ is that it gets a bad rap. Sure there are parts that are shockingly ugly but I find there are more parts that are stunningly beautiful.
Our campground was in the mountains and had picturesque views. The campground is also a working farm and there was plenty of farm animals to pet and look at, which kept Chloe entertained. Of course, the pool won Chloe's affection, even though it was very cold.
The campground was full of seasonal visitors who keep their park model RV's on site permanently. Most were snowbirds who went south for the winter and returned north for the summer. The park model vacation homes intrigued me and so Saturday morning we went to tour some of the models. Matt and I decided that were not done with the RV roaming yet, but if we ever find a piece of property we like (not in a RV campground) the park model option could be a cost effective way to go until we can build to suit.
During our get away this weekend, we swam in the pool (of course), visited a nearby ski resort and terrain park and toured the scenic countryside. We decided the area is on our list of places we would like to have a vacation/retreat home. We have two more areas to visit this camping season---one in NY and one in PA, so we shall see which of the three make it to the top of the list.
