First camping weekend this past weekend!
The Parks of the St. Lawrence opened up a new campground at Woodland Beach. They have 8 non-electric, non-serviced sites that they have created that each have their own waterfront right onto the St. Lawrence, and a friend of ours managed to snag a few sites.
This time, we brought the GSP and the husky camping with us.
The weekend was great - parked, set up and then just relaxed and didn't accomplish much. Which was oh-so-needed. Between three sites, we had five adults, one child and six canines. It should have been chaos, but it really wasn't. It was really enjoyable!
The campsites themselves could have used a good grass cutting - I got a nice tick attached to my inner thigh within the first few hours there (thankfully no other tick incidents). They have flush toilets, which were clean, and that's about it.
We ended up beside two sites of people who decided to set up all their gear on the one site and park their seven cars between both. They made for interesting people watching. They were influencers with what appeared to be a film crew staging various campground experiences (including a highly staged campfire marshmallow and sing along session). I've never personally seen an influencer in the wild ..... So very concerned with everything but enjoying the camping experience. Anyway .....
All in, good time. If you book there, sites 7 and 8 looked to be the nicest and flattest. The pictures of our site was site 4, and the orange Taco with the roof top tent was site 3. There aren't any photos online, until now .... Muah haha.
Our doggos didn't come up into the tent with us - instead, they had a full bed made from the rear of the truck. It seems to have worked well and they were very well behaved - and brilliantly exhausted right now.
Toodles for now.
