A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Just wanted to put this out there, that my sister and I are planning a camping weekend 16th - 19th October at Ferryboat Campsites (.com) located in Liverpool, PA. It is right on the Susquehanna River. I know the Ferry doesn't run after the end of September, but I'm just looking for a "last trip of the season" before I have to winterize. GD has a long weekend off of school that weekend, so I'm getting ready to make my reservations. If anyone is in the area or wants to be in the area that weekend, please feel free to join us.

They have kayak and canoe rentals and if the weather permits, I'd like to go out in one or the other as I'm thinking about getting an inflatable one for in the MH. I know a couple of the places we traveled to this summer it would have been great to have one with!

Barbzeee, wish you weren't going to be in FLA by then!

PA is my original home, but can't make a trip in October. But, thanks for the invitation.

Sorry, not that familiar with PA what part is that in? N,S, E or W? i was planning a trip to Shenandoah National Parki week prior to that and actually thought about coing back thru PA so I could add another state to my map? I'll be traveling thru the SW corner? Is that anywhere near where you'll be?

Sorry,... sounds nice, but that's too far for me to travel for two reasons,.... $$$ and also time,... I am working two jobs for the fall months,..... have a campfire and raise a glass to those of us that can't make it!

Liverpool PA is on RT15 just a bit north of Harrisburg.

If Lori and Ernie were still in PA I bet they would go. They know that campground well.

Well, you all will just have to join me in spirit then! I know it is late in the season (for us nor'easters) but I have to get that one last weekend in before I put her away for the winter...blech, ptuy, ptuy...that word just sticks in my mouth! The older I get, the more I dread winter!

Paulette - you had a question here about where in PA this is - someone is interested. You must have missed that answer - so read up - maybe some of you will be able to gtg.

OH, DARN, DARN, double DARN!!!!! Wish we could have done this earlier.....we've camped there quite a few times.....nice campground and when the ferry is running, it's great fun!!!!!!! It is located about 25-35 miles north of Harrisburg on US route 15/11.......they give discount with AAA card.....have putt-putt golf, playground, and bring bikes if you like....golf carts for rent....and a well stocked camp store.....full hookups, but arranged kinda' weird....so you may have to have some extra hose for water, but e&s are on the same side......nice winery in the area, in fact, just up the road a little....fire rings.....I've never been there in the fall, but the leaves should be just at peak or a little after.......You all have a great time......We'll have to do this CG again next summer when we're back......

Oops! Paulette missed this posting. I will have to read everything from now on. I am interested but will have to wait and see my work schedule at the hospital.

Hey, sounds like plans in the making for a GTG next year some time too. I'll let ya'll know how I like the cg, but from Lori's post sounds like there isn't anything not to like! We'll miss the ferry as it only runs till the end of Sept, but that will be something to look forward to next year too!

Kelpie, I wasn't ignoring you, but thought that Echo had pretty much answered. Shirlv, would love to meet you if you can make it. If not, we'll still try to work a meeting of some sort into our future.

I have goggled this from Shenandoah National Park and it seems very do-able. Keep me posted as plans firm up. I would love to meet some of you.

I'll be coming through PA on my way back south about that time. I'll see if it'll work out to join you. My SIL will be riding with me.

WooHoo...I feel honored. I look forward and am hoping to see you then!

Okay, for anyone interested or in the area, I have made a reservation from 16 - 19 October at Ferryboat Campsites. Their 800 # is 1-800=759-8707. I have a serious need for a get-away weekend before winter sets in. I'd love to meet any of you that might be in the area...nothin fancy, nothin formal, just a how do ya do. Come sit around the campfire and chat.

Wanted to add...looks like we might have the following group attending...
kelpie, liz and sil, shirlv (if work doesn't interfere)

Cedar, we'll definitely raise a toast of some sort to you!

Ha, shaping up nicely! Lori, we'll definitely have to plan to gtg there next summer and get Barb and anyone else in the area to come too. I did e-mail Sprinter, but that is the weekend she is moving out of her apartment and going full time!
