By the time I needed a rest stop I was near bursting. Pulled off of the highway and found myself a spot. There are separate areas for tractor tailers and regular vehicles. Trucks to the left, everything else to the right. The rest stop is about as plain as they come. Loads of space outside if you need to stretch your legs. Inside wasn't anything grand. I walked the length of the sidewalk and ventured over towards what looks like a maintenance shed for the areas water. While down there it appears there is a small monument to something. I'm not sure what it was for, but it is behind a fence, no way to get close enough to inspect it fully. Easy to get back onto the highway after the stop.

First time stopping at this rest area. While it's clean, it could use an update for sure. Super…read moreeasy to get in and out of this one here, and it looks like they've got some well stocked snack machines.

I signed up for their e-weekly, This Week in the Susquehanna River Valley so I know what's going on. Inside, they have Visitor Guides for all the areas in PA so they can help plan a trip outside the area too. I gotta say I was VERY surprised at all the information they have. And a really cool Facebook page too! Keep up the good work guys! I'll stop by again next time!

We recently stayed at a Sunbury/Northumberland area campground and really enjoyed our stay and the…read morearea. So much so that when we found that campground booked for the summer we took the advice of a co worker and stayed at Fantasy Island nearby. If you're looking for a simple, affordable, fun for the kids camping retreat this is your spot. Located right on the Susquehanna the (seasonal) riverfront spots had their own boat slips. The rest of the campground wasn't wooded in the least which I appreciated, but the sites were pretty tight. Each site had a concrete patio and full hook up including cable and wifi - although I was unable to connect to the wifi (hubby did though). At only $42/night in the prime season the price couldn't be beat! The campground was small and simple with one bathhouse. It wasn't horrible but there were some critters. It was equipped with a table/chairs in front of a mirror for a makeshift vanity area to do your makeup separate from the sink. That was a smart touch. They also rented out one cabin. I didn't see any areas for tents. There were about 100 camp sites. They also had a playground and volleyball net. I was told that usually a food truck parks inside the premises. The store was small but did sell the essentials at a very good price. Imagine my surprise when I ran out of suntan lotion and picked up a full size tube of a kid formula spf 50 for only $2!!!! The dollar store costs more than that! They also had ice cream novelties ranging in price from .35 cents to a max of $2, flip flops and floaties were only a buck. They did close early at 7pm, but the attached rec room/gathering place/arcade combo was open at all hours. I noticed in the rec room they had bikes/scooters you could rent (we didn't inquire) as well as books. There was a big screen tv with dvd as well as a huge, comfortable leather sectional sofa. You could watch your movies there but they didn't supply dvds. A pool was present complete with a limited number of loungers and covered tables ranging in depth from 3-5'. It was so relaxing on the hottest weekend of the season and usually full of campers. The weekend of our stay was Christmas in July and they went all out. If you signed up your kids at the store Santa called their name and they got a baggie of goodies. The rec area was all decked out for the holidays complete with the tv set on a fireplace mood, complete with crackle noise effects. Several of the campers did elaborate Christmas displays. When I say this campground is simple, it isn't an insult. It's just enough stuff to unwind and have kids get back to being kids; playing on the equipment, swimming in the pool, and playing with other kids. While I do wish they had more activities scheduled, it was nice to just take it easy and let the kids play without a lot of shuffling around to make sure we do and see everything. They did have a potluck dinner the one night which we really enjoyed. The manager was super friendly and involved as were our neighbors who were all seasonal. Guests are free ($3 for pool use - get wrist band at store) and can stay till 10 pm, wish I knew that in advance as we would have had some friends come up for the day. From talking with the seasonals a spot is $1900 per season which runs April 15-Oct 15. At that time you must remove and dismantle your campsite (sheds, rocks, garden, outdoor décor, etc) as township doesn't allow campers to be kept there all year. You can get your same site back if you prefer. They do not rent golf carts. No dogs allowed in any of the buildings, pool area, and playground. As a non dog person I really appreciated that! Overall a very nice, clean, vintage feeling campground, one will we most likely return to when we want some downtime.

Absolutely beautiful campground, Rudy was super nice and helpful and the cabin was quite a bit bigger than we had expected based on the pictures. The cabin itself was very basic, and firewood was provided for the wood burner. We were actually HOT one night and cracked the window, no worries about not being warm enough. The shower could use a little updating and there was a note that said sometimes the pilot light goes out and there might not be hot water and if that happened to find the owner and they would help. Luckily it worked, but it could use something other than a pallet to stand on ;) Look, it's not the holiday inn, but I would prefer a rustic cabin on beautiful land over a boring sterile hotel room any day!!
