This is our last day in Wurtsboro NY and as soon as Les and Phil get back to corroborate this [they have and we are] we’ll be leaving for Schenectady NY tomorrow morning. They have gone off in the car to find telephone service (we must be in a hole … no Verizon in this location) to make our next reservations. We had a group meeting and decided to continue north and east rather than our planned westward aside to Lake Ontario because we all decided we’d leave that “Great Lake” and a trip to Niagara for another time and get on with our trek to Maine. So … they are canceling those reservations and making new ones.
As you might remember, we were supposed to be in Milford PA these past four days but upon arrival we discovered the park was completely unsuitable for RVs. Here and there among privately owned lots with every sort of RV permanently installed there was a space for members of Coast to Coast. These sites have had absolutely no maintenance and are impossible to put a big rig in or out. We complained to no avail. We drove all around the park trying to find any C to C spaces that might work … nothing! The woman at the gate (a Lt. Critchfield as I recall) was completely unsympathetic to our needs and more or less said “that’s not my problem” when we asked for help. One of her remarks was especially sarcastic, “What do you expect for $8.00 a night?” We left.
Les called Coast to Coast, told them what had happened and explained our dilemma. They promptly found us another park (Catskill Mountain Ranch and Camping Club) about 25 miles farther into the state of New York near Wurtsboro where we have been happily hooked up (except for no phone service) for the past four days.
Advice to fellow travelers and faithful readers (my opinion only): Avoid the Coast-to-Coast RV park named LAKE ADVENTURE COMMUNITY in Milford, PA. Park in Wal*Mart or even a rest stop if you must … but save yourself some grief and possible damage to your rig by deleting this park from your Coast to Coast book!
