Hi Dun and Becky,
Quote: | Any thoughts on where best to launch and stay on the Erie? |
My choice would be Seneca Lake. Take a look at the ramp.

On our way to Nova Scotia, we plan to stop in the Sturbridge area one night. Any thoughts on the best campground? _________________ George and Penny

George and Penny,
Yeah, that ramp looks good and I think the group will use Seneca Lake State Park.
We stayed in a campground in Sturbridge years ago but I'll have to look up the name in our log. Nice, but near the highway. It's fine for just overnight. I'd offer to have you use our driveway, but we're in the middle of major renovations and there's no room at all right now.
You are, however, most welcome to stay at our place in Trenton, Maine on your way to the Cat ferry in Bar Harbor. It's only about 15 miles from the Ferry (30 mins) and there's outside power if you need it. Stay for one or more days. Email me directly if you're interested.
To keep this topical, any chance of you coming to Moosehead in October? You can even leave the boat home and hitch day rides with us. The campground at Lily Bay State Park is wonderful.
Have fun on your trip.

George and Penny,
We stayed at Yogi Bear's Jellystone park in Sturbridge. If I remember right, it was one dark and stormy night, on the way home from the Cape, and we were late and didn't feel like driving the last two hours. It was fine for that!
I hope you will be stayting in some Nova Scotia provincial parks. In our experience, the Canadian Provincial parks are marvelous!

Dun and Becky,
Thanks for the info on camping in Sturbridge. And thanks for the Trenton offer. We have not yet settled on the route we will take.
We will certainly think about camping at Moosehead Lake on our return if you are still there. Among other things, it depends upon the timing.
Let's stay in touch. |
