PERFECT!!!!! We had a blast! That is one busy campground, but very well run. Our girls 3 and 5 loved the water slides. Two days is too short. We will go back.

Hey guys, what kind of stabilizers do you use, trunions (under the hitch) or the ones that are on top of the hitch?
Thanks....Doug

My bad....The correct terminology is weight distribution hitch do you use?
First time I pulled my camper I used a 3500 dually with no wdh. Now with my f250 I will feel more comfortable with the wdh.

I use Equal-i-zer. I am pretty happy with it, just wish I bought the heavier set up. I got the 1200/12000 lb but would have prefered the 1400/14000 just because the weight of my camper.

Getting ready to go to Lancaster next week. It will be the first time I have pulled with my truck. I acquired a round bar system that I will use. The bars are rated for 801-1000 lbs. These aren't the largest bars, but they will have to suffice for this trip.

I am at Old Mill Stream campground in Lancaster. It is located right behing Dutch Wonderland. The park is nice but most of the spots are arranged in a T. It was a little difficult to park 2-28 and a 33 footer in the areas. Good thing they said we could pull across the grass. That is my only complaint. Other than that it is a nice park. Shopping for the women and shopping (Cabella's) for the men.

we were there a few weeks ago. Also, there is the Harbor Freight & Salvage store, Lots of stuff in there.

I agree, backing in the spots are a little different. My wife loves the cows across the stream. Also, the Amish pastries, I tried a couple, but then I thought, these people don't use electric, how sanitary is their kitchen!

mmmmmmm dirt & microbes are sure tasty!
