I’m wondering if anyone has some suggestions for campgrounds that may fit what we are looking for as a family (wife and 2 1/2 year old, #2 on the way).
We are camping with a pickup camper and pulling a boat. So ideally we launch and setup camp and don’t start the truck again until its time to come home.
#1 Decent panfish lake – I need to get my 2 1/2 year old on some good action
#2 Dock or safe shoreline space so we can launch once and leave the boat for the weekend
#3 Swimming area (lake or pool)
#4 Electric hookup, water a bonus and sewer even more of a bonus
#5 Playground
#6 Showers and bathrooms are a big bonus with a pregnant wife
#7 Within 3 hours of the cities
We have camped at various places and have yet to find the ideal place. With #2 kid on the way my time to scout out places this year is going to be limited. We’d like to find a place we can frequent 2-3 times a year. We love camping at Onegume on Little Cutfoot, but reservations for lake side sites have become so hard to get and there really isn’t an ideal swimming area there. We camped last weekend at Big Sandy Federal Dam site. This was nice and near ideal. Its just that we couldn’t put fish together on this lake, ideally we find something smaller than Big Sandy.
Any advice on campgrounds? State, Federal or private?
Thanks
