Niagara Falls, the Maid of the Mist boat tour and we walk to Canada!

Oct 252015



Niagara-Falls-Canada-US-visit

This blog post highlights our adventures for September 9, 2015. Follow us on Instagram to find out where we are currently!

While staying at the Branches of Niagara Campground we took a day trip to see Niagara Falls! Just a short 20 minute drive from our campground it was a very quick drive into town. Our truck is huge, so we just parked in the main parking lot of the visitor’s center, it was $10 but worth skipping the headache of trying to park a massive truck on busy city streets.

Just a short walk from our parking spot and there it was, Niagara Falls in all her glory. . .breathtaking!

You can see photos and hear people describe it – but until you actually see the size and power. . . and you hear the roar, and feel the rumble, you don’t get the full experience. Wow, just wow.

Branches of Niagara Campground and Resort Review – Amazing camping, close to Niagara Falls {New York}

Oct 232015



Branches-of-Niagara-Campground-Resort-Review

I’m a bit behind in blogging about our adventures – this post highlights our travels around September 8-9, 2015. Follow us on Instagram to find out where we are currently!

After leaving Evangola State Park we headed to the Niagara Falls area! When trying to decide where to stay while visiting Niagara Falls, I kept coming across Branches of Niagara Campground and Resort. It was recommended by many reviewers and it had some of the best reviews I’ve ever seen for a campground! Located just 8.2 miles from Niagara Falls it’s one of the closest campgrounds you’ll find to the falls. After considering the great reviews and the proximity to the falls we decided to give it a try!

I knew the minute we drove onto the property that we were going to enjoy it here. The entire campground felt like a resort. . . .or like a very nice park. . .

Mature landscaping, native plants, a pond, lots of grass, manicured paths. . .it was gorgeous.

Evangola State Park – Swimming in Lake Erie {New York}

Oct 222015



Evangola-State-Park-Visit

I’m a bit behind in blogging about our adventures – this post highlights our travels around September 6-7, 2015. Follow us on Instagram to find out where we are currently!

After spending a couple nights at Harvest Host locations in Ohio and Pennsylvania we landed at Evangola State Park in Western New York. We lucked out and grabbed the last available spot on the Monday of Labor Day and I’m so glad we got it!

The campground was packed but we had a nice back-in spot with electric for around $35/night. The campground is not close enough to walk to the beach, you had to drive – but there is plenty of parking at the public beach. (Photo above was taken AFTER the holiday weekend, when most everyone had left!)

Imagine boondocking for two nights – without hook-ups (read: no air conditioning or showers) in HOT, humid weather. We were feeling super grimy by the time we parked at Evangola. It wasn’t 30 minutes after we unhitched the trailer that we headed straight for the BEACH.

I can safely attest that it has NEVER felt more refreshing to jump in a lake. The sun was shining, the sand was soft and the waves made Lake Erie feel like a tropical ocean.
