Beckers 1,136 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 We just did a week at a campground in NJ and 2 things we saw I thought you'd be interested in. Adam spotted this sign, which lead to the guessing game of why is the lady's name marked over with tape? Dead? Divorced? A joke? A 5th wheel pulled in a few sites away and while they were setting up we heard this awful, loud bang. Turns out he forgot to drop his tailgate before pulling the truck out from under it. Yikes.

Beckers 1,136 Posted August 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 And here are some random pics from our trip My kids loved catching frogs (and didn't take their helmets off because they were lazy) We called that Mystery Island.

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 Cute photos! Is that a waterwheel in the photo of the lake? What's the story with that? It doesn't look like there would be much water flowing through that ditch. Where was this in NJ? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted August 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 It is a water wheel, it was moving in the beginning of our trip but we had a really bad storm one night and it stopped working after that. Not sure why it stopped. the campground is called Hospitality Creek in Williamstown, Nj. It's pretty nice and they are very strict. No golf carts, no drunks, no loud parties. The Fort could learn a thing or two from them. At night you constantly see a staff member on a golf cart (they are the only ones who can have them) looping to make sure everything is good. They have a lake, an activity pool and a regular pool. My kids love it there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

parrothead7368 aka Norm 101 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 I grew up swimming at Hospitality Creek a lot, I lived about a mile away, the next lake down. Its nice, but way over priced. Actually it's in Cecil, NJ, us Cecilites take pride, just uses the Williamstown zip code. LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twiceblessed....nacole 433 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 Sweet pictures of the kiddos :) The tailgate... man, that really stinks. I think that happens, a lot. Almost happened to me a couple of weeks ago... had Tom not yelled, I would have done some serious damage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LOL I agree it's expensive! $690 for a week for a pull through site, next year the prices are higher and it's $720 for the week. I jas had no idea it wasn't actually Williamstown either!
