We will NOT stay at the Hagerstown Jellystone again. Once they put the water slides in they jacked up the prices. You pay a fee for the site and then turn around and have to pay an additional fee per person. I think it was going to cost us over $90 per night. Sorry that is to much money for camping. Not all Jellystones are like that though.
This is still one of my favorite places to visit. Go on the amenity free weekends - save yourself the fees. I agree the new pricing is outrageous but they seem to continue to expanding so I guess they are still doing well.
CMC – from what it sounds like you are going for I’d look into state parks in the area. We go to Hagerstown Yogi at least once a year but we go there as our destination. If just using the campground as a staging point/place to sleep I’d look into a state park – can’t beat the prices.
As for the place in question -
RVparkreviews.com :: Home doesn’t rate it as very good as of late – probably b/c of all the seasonals (I have yet to stay at a place with seasonals and don’t plan to start now when there are so many other options available). Not to say that you can’t still have a good time just be warned that anything without an average 7 on this site I’ve been disappointed with.
We have reservations next year for 'Gettysburg Campground' – I’ll report back after July 4th. Jabba and I visited Cunningham Falls SP earlier this fall and loved it - def. on the list of places to return to. If you want to go closer to Baltimore - we stayed at Patapsco Valley SP earlier in the fall as well and liked it too. I think I've sent you my photo page link before if you wanted to see what the sites and parks look like.
