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

OK - it's finalized. There will be 2 gtg's in PA this summer. The 2nd one will be at http://www.lakeinwoodcampground.com/

Place: Lake in Woods, Narvon, PA (in the middle of Amish country)

Coming so far: Beth, Shirl, (200) Anita (I), Li (M), Irmi (H), Liz (J), Dee (C), JoanE, Debbie, Paulette will visit.

Dates: Sun Sept 11th - Fri Sept 16th (5 nights)

Rates: $36 per night

Check-in Time: 3 pm. (They WILL be full on Sat night, with most not leaving until afternoon, so please, plan to come in between 3 and 5 if possible and I'll plan to have some type of food for everyone Sunday at 5 or 6).

When making reservations, please mention you are coming for the Sept gtg with Beth, in her blocked section. They will ask lots of questions, including length of rig, etc - as these sites are mainly wooded, and some are better suited to longer rigs, etc.

If anyone wants to come early or stay late, regular rates will be in effect on the weekends ($51 or $58 per night).

Rates include full hookup (w-e-s) as well as cable tv and wifi. 30 and 50 amp service are available. Campsites have fire rings.

This is the campground I'll be workamping at this summer. They want to try to put the group together, but say this can only be done if people make reservations ASAP. They fill up quickly with just spots available here and there - so it's important to get reservations in right away to be anywhere near each other. My site won't be near the rest, but that won't be any problem.

We will be looking at where all we want to go - including some tours to Amish country and probably one buffet at Shady Maple (if you've never been there, you have to go once!). Most of the time will be just chatting and enjoying each other's company. OH, and eating, I'm sure

Anyone coming - do NOT use your GPS to get you to the campground. It will take you on a route you do not want to take your rigs. Well, Liz could but I'll post directions close to the date or you can get them off their website (http://www.lakeinwoodcampground.com/directions.html), but please, don't use the GPS. Depending on the direction you come from, you might be ok, but I'd rather not chance it. And remember, the horse and buggies have the right-of-way.

This is also being posted on the Singles rv site.

Just looked it up - and the very, very large Hershey RV show will be starting this week also - running Sept 14-18, 2011 - which we could make a day trip to if anyone is interested.

I made my reservation, site 200, subject to change. I am not too anxious.

I just got information from LIW that they have temporarily blocked 11 sites for us. They have also blocked the gazebo for our use for the entire stay. The sites and gazebo are the area I hoped we'd get If you look at their map ( http://www.lakeinwoodcampground.com/campsite.html ) put your cursor over the area to the left of the lake - the sites blocked are: 200, 201, J, I, M, N, A, B, C, E and G/H. G/H is a brother/sister site.

C'mon folks, make your reservation now. If we fill up these sites, they'll find us more. But let's get these full! Oh, if anyone wants to come without a rig, LIW has some great park models and unique rentals. I don't know if they'd give any discounts on those, but say you're with Beth's group and you never know

I called but the office is closed. I will try again tomorrow.

I have made my reservation as well. I have campsite M... I sure hope by then to be a lot more comfortable with the rig! If not, you can all sit around and giggle at my consternation!

If you're so inclined Irmi, I did the entire thing on line! Was easy as pie (well actually, it was easier than pie...I can't make crust to save my life)!!!

Li, I have a stupid question for ya. If you do the thing online, how do they know you're with Beth's GTG?

Irmi,
Go to: https://secure.straitwebsolutions.com/l ... ampground/ And fill out the form. At the bottom is a place for comments. You can put it there. Or wait till morning to call. Since they aren't open now, they have shorter office hours than they will come the season (ha, I'll be in the office some of the hours once the season starts).

Woohoo - we're getting this thing going. And Li, you'll just have lots of friends to help you - or laugh with you! Going into my 7th year this summer and I still am learning things!

Beth, thanks for the heads up. I have made reservations and will call them tomorrow to get our site number. Life is good!!!!!

Ah jeesh, I'm a such a dope! I picked one of the group of campsites, but I didn't even think about telling them I was with Beth's group! What a dope! I'll have to call them tomorrow as well. Sometimes I just amaze myself with stoopid!!!

You just want to pay more See we don't have to wait until Sept to laugh with you.

Ok, I just reserved online, referencing Beth's gtg & reserved section, but didn't request a specific site. They can put me where I'll fit best & save longer sites for bigger rigs.

I just called the campground and they haven't gotten online yet, so they're not sure which site I'll be in. Like Liz, I'll take whatever they can put me in.

Reservation confirmed. I'm in Site J.

I also got a confirmation, and they intuitively knew that I was with Beth's group...maybe because I reserved Site M. I didn't have to call or anything additional after my on-line reservation. So all is good to go with me too! Damn, I'm nothing if not lucky, eh???
