Would there be any interest in a second camping excursion this fall?  I'm thinking Oct 1-3 to Hocking Hills State Park.  Get there Friday after work, ride the Triple Nickel and other fine roads in the area, then take Sunday afternoon to come home.  Hopefully, I'll have my Daytona back by then with some reliability installed.   Lol  For those with extra vacation days like me, I'll plan on arriving Thursday night, securing a good site for us and figure out a fun day for Friday.

Hocking Hills SP has electric campsites @ $28 per night and mini-cabins @ $40 per night.
http://www.dnr.state.oh.us/parks/tabid/743/default.aspx

MY RESERVATIONS ARE MADE for Sept 30-Oct 3.

Attendees:

This is just a starter topic.  Times and dates can be shuffled if needed.  I'd prefer late September/early October due to my commitments at work & home for the next 4-6 weeks.  Location is flexible too, if someone else has a better suggestion.  I just wanna go ride in the Hills region again sometime this year with this group.

Will they let you put more than 1 tent on a site ??  I'll split a spot if they will...I cannot commit until really close due to work scheduling.

Stay tuned.  I've got a possible weekend free on August 16-17.    Think northern Kentucky, ala Kincaid Lake State Park.  Basco and Stripes showed me some roads down there.  It's 4.5 hours from Detroit to the park.  Excellent camping facilities.

I think we can.  Will check their website and with the campground today.  


From the website:

Campsites accommodate a tent or tents with combined floor space under 200 square feet, or a camper and a tent
Parking pads fit 2 cars, or a car and a camper, or up to 3 motorcycles, and vehicle passes are available at some parks for extra cars
Each site accommodates families or groups of up to 6

My tent is a grand total of 20 square feet, so that leaves 180 sf for two other tents.
