Need some suggestions for a quite CG with swimming pool or swimming lake, play ground and fishing pond within an hour driving radius of the Philadelphia PA area.

We're in the process of planning a weekend trip and taking one of our daughter's and her four year son along.

Any and all suggestions and recommendations are welcome.

Thanks for your help.

Jim, I can only think mof 2 choices you have. The first is KOA in West Chester---it has been 5 or 6 years since we were there so don't know about today. The other is Timberlane at exit 17 on I-295 in NJ. It has everything you specified. They fill up early as they have many long term folks, most of whom seem to be in construction--- during the day you have only light traffic in campground.

We were just there in June for 4 nights and have used it many times over the years, Ken,'04 DSDP...

Hi Ken,

West Chester KOA is booked for this weekend.

We booked a site in a Jelly Stone Park called Tall Pines in Elmer, NJ for this weekend.

The weekend of August 4th we were able to book at the West Chester KOA.

We'll have to check out Timberlane CG in the future.

Thanks for the advice.

Travel safe and enjoy the journey

Jim
