Abagpiper5 8 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 When we were there in January, thanks to Rhonda, we got AAA rates and they were around $60 (prefered) with tax. I think that is a very good rate compared to some private CG we've stayed out. The KOA in Wildwood, which is a DUMP was $40.I am not sure if any of the campgrounds in the Wildwood/Cape May area are that good. We did stay at Sea Shell last year but wasn't too impresses.We are going to try this place this year since it's in our home state.http://www.lakekandle.com/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also isn't near the shore, about 45 minutes to 1 hour drive to certain beaches. I live in NJ as well, but camp out of state. Personally, most of the campgrounds in NJ cater more to the seasonal crowd and turn me off. Haven't been to any in Northern Jersey though. We love PA and NY for weekenders.BTW, welcome to the site.Best Regards,Norm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We have also spent time at Timothy Lake North in PA at a Outdoor World and the one in Lancaster. The one at Timothy Lake has a nice indoor water park that the wee ones enjoyed, ok,...I enjoyed it too, their is nothing like a lazy river to chill in. :rofl2:We haven't been up to NY camping yet, but we have been thinking about it. I think we are going to head to Cape May for a long weekend and maybe Lake Kandle. I live near Seaside and I just can't stomach the fact of a Snookie that might be creeping around.We are also considering Williamsburg/Bush Gardens/Va Beachand thanks for the welcome. :banana: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MicknMin...Holly 54 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 We are going to be at a big pet trade show for 4 days in mid March. I had originally booked FW, which is my heart's desire, but then I started thinking about what we would be doing for 2 full days and it was not Disney related so why pay Disney prices. For what 1 day at FW cost us we are staying at Turkey Lake for 5 days. Not as nice, but we kept dinner ressies at Ohana and will do Epcot on Saturday. I am booking in May which I think was less expensive.I just wanted to say that I love your new avatar!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Another routine trip is Gettysburg, we stay at the KOA out there and we also did Lancaster http://www.bird-in-hand.com/index.php/places_to_stay/stay_overview/country_acres_campground/ last year.New York, we went to Watkins Glen/Corning area and stayed at Camp Bell Campground, campbellcampground.com. There is also Watkins Glen State Park which is really nice. Anywhere up in that area is nice. My DD's (2&4) have fun wherever they are, so it's easy to please.

tim5055 120 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 It seems that not long after the first part of the year, Disney goes from Peak Season to Regular Season and completely skips the Value Season that used to exist from after Easter to about the 2nd week of JuneYou can check out my web page with Previous Years Pricing to see the pricing and "seasons" for several years.

bob34787 4 Posted February 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 well I guess the cost is not important now as I seem to have waited too long to book, now I have to keep checking in the wee hours to see if anything opens up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
