After leaving Waterside Campground we drove four hours to Pymatuning Adventure Resort in Williamsfield, OH. As you drive up the huge gate there is a brightly painted 4 slide water park on your right, along with a camp store and office. The person who met us at the gate was extremely friendly and helpful. He pointed out where everything was and escorted us to our campsite.
We were lucky enough to get a "pull-thru" site, which there are not many of here. Not quite sure how they are pull-thru sites when they back up to other sites, but they are big and really nice. Most of the sites have trees and ALL 150+ have full hookup for either 30 amp or 50 amp.
On our site, which seemed to be a rarity there, the sewer was uphill from where the camper was. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon and the place was pretty empty. We spent only three days at the waterpark due to weather, but really enjoyed our time there. Lines were pretty short and the price was low.
Since the weather wasn't the greatest for part of our stay we ventured into the nearby towns. The towns are small and reminiscent of Mayberry. I loved them! Cup Café is a little java joint hidden at the back of Public Square in Andover that has a friendly staff, clean place, and amazing drinks. It seemed like every little town we went to had either a Dollar General or a Family Dollar. I was nice to see or rather not see Wal-marts. We went to Pymatuning Deer Park on a day that was too chilly for the waterpark. They have many different animals that you can feed and pet. Some actually interact with you by pulling buckets into the cage that you put treats/food into.
The teenagers with us on this trip were not at all happy that the campground didn't have ATT 4G service or internet. Poor kids went through a major technology withdrawal period until they got the Wi-Fi working at the camp store. It was funny seeing all the teenagers gathered around the store with their laptops and phones.
We are looking forward to coming back next year as the adults weren't ready to leave on this trip.
We did have a "visitor" with us while at the campground. A little black and white kitten adopted us for our nine day stay. He was entertaining and seemed to love all the attention he got from all of the campers.
