So....we took a 2 week family vacation in June before our son heads off on his own to make some life long memories. We pulled our small travel trailer with us through 8 states and keep moving every 2-3 days...3,800 miles in total. I can say we accomplished the memory goal, albeit some of those memories were unplanned & unpleasant.
Let's just say that once we were home we needed a vacation from our vacation. Part of our motivation to travel was that we have been to most of the Indiana state parks several times and we wanted to do something new...have some new experiences.
So we are looking for some new family friendly campgrounds that are closer and we can spend more time at (less setup / tear down time...more fun). We were thinking of keeping things to a 4-5 hour "towing a camper" drive from the Fort Wayne area (that usually equates to a 3-4 hour drive in a car).
Oddly enough, even though we live near Ft. Wayne, and only 6 miles from Ohio. We have not explored Ohio campgrounds much at all. We thought about camping around the Celina reservoir once, but when we realized how polluted it is and that you should not swim or fish in it, that idea was thrown out pretty quickly.
I have heard good things about Sauder Village in Archbold OH, so we have added that to our list. My wife is checking out a campground near Van Wert, OH that a friend recommended. So far, that is all we got.
So INGO....what campgrounds in Michigan or Ohio would you recommend that would be within our driving range?
