Gettysburg Camping

[Tina2001aniT]

any recommendations?
We are going with kids, so kid friendly is most important, hopefully a place that does activities on the weekends. We also want the standard, pool, playground, CLEAN bathrooms......any suggestions??

I also heard the Gettysburg Campground is nice also from a few people - VERY close to the battlefield.

There are quite a few campgrounds up there. Artillery Ridge is very nice and they have a horse ranch next door that you can rent the horses and they take you on a nice ride. Gettysburg KOA is very nice. All the campgronds are very nice - so hard just to pick one. Just start with one and try them all.

We are staying here for the 4th of July. Several friends have highly recommended it over the others in the area.

We visited Gettysburg during the summer a couple years ago and unfortunately the extremely hot weather made for a grouchy teen boy. It wasn't long after we started walking to tour the grounds that he announced... "This is really stupid. There's nothing to do here but look at a bunch of dead people. They should make this an amusement park and then they'd have something." From that day forward all I can picture in my head when I think about Gettysburg is a rollercoaster with Lincoln heads on the fronts of the cars...

luckily middle kiddo is a history buff, she would be the one to totally speak her mind and announce how stupid something is, the other two are just go with the flow-ers......
Can you guess which kid is biologically mine??
