Lehigh Gorge Campground

The state park was booked so we gave this place a try. So the good stuff: the office staff was really nice, showers were hot, bathrooms pretty clean, and we probably had the best spot in the park (86) which was just across an unused dirt road to the tent camping site. With no tenters, we basically had the entire forest for our view. Oh, and the WiFi was blazing fast, like living at home on a cable connection fast.

We were way up on a hill, and with washout it was a bit rough pulling our Airstream up the hill with our two wheel drive van, but we made it without scraping or any other incident.

There are a lot of permanent residents and seasonal spots here...but that's not actually a terrible thing in this part of Pennsylvania. Many campgrounds have these folks who just buy an RV, leave it at some specific place, and it's there weekend camp, summer camp, hunting base camp...so there's nothing particularly trashy or dirty about the permanent spots, but they're there.

I believe we're referred to as "transients"...kind of makes us seem like the riff raff. :)

That is not a view of the campground, though. I thought it was just fine, a bit pricey (like everything in this area) for what you get and I'd have preferred to stay in Hickory Run State Park just a few miles away if it hadn't been packed.
