Once we got to the campground we
found a lot of construction going on. Now, mind you, we knew going
in, the upper areas were closed and there would be limited amenities
due to the building of a new Visitor Center. What we didn't know was
there were to be no amenities and very limited facilities.
Fortunately we are self-contained and did have electric and water
hookups. Bathhouses were closed; dump stations, closed; three
quarters of the park, closed. The only thing open was the section of
campground we were in, which held maybe 15 – 25 RV sites, several
tenting sites and 4 cabins. There were pit toilets in our section and
that was it! Fortunately, it was only a two night stay and the
surroundings were beautiful. We wouldn't have minded as much if we
knew just how much was to be closed ahead of time. Well if this is the worst we deal we are still so ahead of the game! C'est LeVie.
We did manage to get in several nice
walks through a very quiet, might I say deserted, state park. I think
even all the animals left LOL Peaceful, definitely. There were about
8 other RVs there but didn't see many of the occupants out and about,
I have a feeling several of them were part of the construction crew.
We did meet an amateur astronomer there to take photos of the dark
sky. His new hobby since retiring, that was interesting.
Not much else to say except this is all
part of the adventure and they can't all be winners. I will add that
I'd like to come back when all the construction is done as it is a
beautiful park and would love to explore it more.
Onward to Cunningham Falls State Park
in Maryland.
