I am looking for some input on a place to tent camp near Pool 4 one of the first 2 weekends of April. I’ve done a little bit of research online and haven’t found a campground that suites everything I am looking for.
Here’s what I am looking for, with my desires listed from most important to least important.
-Located along or near Pool 4
-Tent Camping and typical amenities that go along with that. We can even get by without water and shower for a day. A fire pit is a requirement though!
-Camp spot right on the river
-Boat Ramp
-If not a boat ramp, a short drive to a nearby boat ramp
-Cheap, not overly crowded- which might not be a problem in early April anywhere.
-Electric Hook-Up to charge Terrova over night
-Dock to leave the boat on overnight (probably won’t find this) so we can get up and literally hit the water in the morning
I’ve seen people in tents on the shoreline along Evert’s before, and I would consider looking into that. But Evert’s can also get pretty busy on a weekend in the spring, and I don’t know if I want to be around that many people… Want to get away a bit.
Frontenac State Park looks like it could fill a few of my needs, but it doesn’t have a boat ramp. A lot of the other private campgrounds don’t open until mid-late April, so there may not be a lot to choose from either.
