On our travel day, Tom and I were meandering around on our way to Orchard Beach State Park in Manistee, Michigan. It is only 118 miles from Holland, and we weren’t supposed to check in until 3 p.m. so we had plenty of time to explore. After spending time in Montague we also wandered around …
From Places to Stay
Holland State Park, a Perfect Place to Stay
Tom and I picked the perfect place to stay when we picked Holland State Park. We stayed in state parks most of the time we were in Michigan and loved all of them. Michigan has 106 state parks and most of them involve water in one way or another. Holland State Park was the furthest …
Two Years in Our Little House
Two years ago on this date, August 12, 2020, Tom and I closed and got the keys to our little house on Treeline Drive. We are still loving the little house and learning to live with or fix its quirks. We don’t have any regrets about buying it. Our favorite thing about the house is …
Campground at Gifford Pinchot State Park
Tom and I parked the RV at the campground at Gifford Pinchot State Park while I was attending the overshot weaving class at Red Stone Glen. Previously Tom and I had stayed at Harrisburg East Campground. It was a good location, especially when we had our big RV. But they recently raised their rates so …
Clinton Knoxville North KOA
While Tom and I were exploring the National Park sites in eastern Tennessee, we stayed at the Clinton Knoxville KOA. KOAs are our go-to campsites. They aren’t the most spacious or scenic places we could stay. Instead, they are usually close to the interstate and thus convenient for what we call “park and play”. We …
Leprechaun First Trip, Motorhome Maiden Voyage
When I took my class at Red Stone Glen, we stayed in the Leprechaun at Harrisburg East Campground. We stayed there last year when I took my Beginning Weaving Class, but we were in the behemoth RV. This time it was a little different. How did the Leprechaun do? Well, it is certainly different from …
Crowded Cross Creek Campground
When Tom and I are in Ohio we usually stay at Cross Creek Campground. It is located just west of Alum Creek in Delaware, so it is close to John and Jackie and to my parents. Cross Creek is also close to Columbus, with all its shopping and restaurants. But we don’t usually stay at …
King and Prince Resort on St. Simons Island
Kris stayed at the King and Prince Resort while she was here on St. Simons Island. Although other visitors have stayed on the island, no one has stayed at the King and Prince, so it was our first chance to tour the facility. Most people think the King and Prince is too expensive, but Kris …
Harrisburg East Campground
While Tom and I were in Harrisburg, we stayed at the Harrisburg East Campground. When we were first looking at places to stay, we looked at a couple of campgrounds close to Hershey that were more resort-ish. But neither of them had availability all three weeks we wanted to stay. We finally found Harrisburg East …
Coastal Georgia RV Resort near Brunswick
I realized last week that I never wrote a post on Coastal Georgia RV Resort. We stayed at this very nice RV park during the government shutdown back in January. It is located just south of Brunswick on US 17. Coastal Georgia RV Resort is immaculately clean and nicely landscaped. There are 150 full hook-up …
