    Hello we are new to your channel we like your campground reviews very informative we are from western Pennsylvania but we love Ohio state parks much nicer you guys have gave us many more campgrounds to go to in the future my job limits us on how much camping we can do also western Pennsylvania weather sucks a lot of cold and rainy weather. Planning on retiring in 2 years hopefully do much more camping especially in Ohio and then in the winter going to Florida again thanks for your posts on the awesome campgrounds I have a 40 foot travel trailer and your videos will help us out. Have a great Christmas . And I will be watching more of your videos

    Great to see you guys again. Looks like a beautiful park and great bike trail and the music was a plus. We went to Punderson state park in the fall it was so beautiful with the foliage. The Campground is now closed to June or so because they are updating the electric and possibly putting in more full hookups. Recommend it and the Manor there is famous for being haunted . It pretty neat to see. Check it out. Thanks for the video. Hope you have happy holidays ahead very soon.

    Hello again, on our way back from PA, we are coming back and were looking at Ottawa Metro Park in Lima. I remember you all saying that was the 3rd try, but have a backup campgrounds nearby. What would you recommend? We would be landing on a Friday weekend before July 4th. Thanks again and enjoyed watching!

      Not really sure, with it being the Friday before the 4th you probably won’t get into Ottawa. There really isn’t a campground close to Ottawa. It’s probably gonna be hard to get into a State Park and not sure of the route you are taking.
