Campout at Atsion
(Campsite is Closer and Cheaper... though it is usually louder depending on the site bathrooms are outhouses.)
Campsites 26 - 34 if Shawn or Jack want 26 (closest to the bathroom) this is the dog friendly loop.
When: April 11th - April 13th
Time: After work Friday
We will leave from here to go to Breakfast with the Beetles @ Shamong Diner
Let me know your thoughts!
-
I've been through there, but never camped there. How segragated are the dog campsites?
-
Atsion has bathrooms. Goshen Pond has the outhouses, and all you need to do is register the pets
We always stay on C

The entrance road...

So is Atsion and Goshen Pond two different places or is Goshen Pond just a section of Atsion?
Is the C camping area just a big open spot for a bunch of people and dogs can go anywhere like Batona?
Is that the same spot where we saw you guys camping back in July, when we first ran into you's?
Is the youtube link broken, or does my work phone just not want to play it? It just keeps loading forever.
-
We were at Atsion in July. Goshen is also on Atsion lake. Its what they call "Primative" sites.
They don't segregate "pet sites" at Goshen...dogs always require leashes in any NJ campground
-
Ok, sounds the same as the primitive sites at the Batona camping area down Carranza Rd. I've camped there many times.
Where is Goshen pond in relation to the Atsion camping area where I saw you guys in July? Like if you turn down Atsion Rd is it closer to 206 or Oak Shade Rd?
-
(from 206) You just go past Atsion Campground entrance (on Atsion Rd) and Goshen is the next entrance

Oh, so is Breakfast with the Beetles a week early too?
Do we need to make reservations to camp?
-
Step it up Greg and get this stuff posted and on the calender
-
It is on the calendar?
There will be an Easter Egg hunt for kids (if we have any coming) and also for dogs!
-
Two months away! Who is excited. What will the Easter Bunny leave you?
-
Worst discussion ever.... Whats the correct information?
Date?
Do we need reservations?
How do we make reservations (if needed)?
Is it Atsion or Goshen Pond?
Just sayin...This post had a rocky start
-
Sorry still new to me, I'll get the info up ASAP.
-
All in fun...You're doing great!
If we're staying in Atsion (bathhouses) or Goshen Pond (primitive-outhouse)
Reaservations at http://www.reserveamerica.com/camping/Wharton_State_Forest/r/campgroundDetails.do?contractCode=NJ&parkId=670056 (http://www.reserveamerica.com/camping/Wharton_State_Forest/r/campgroundDetails.do?contractCode=NJ&parkId=670056)
I vote Atsion.
Oh btw they now charge $5 for walkin reservations so you might as well book in advance on Reserve America
-
Let's go with Atsion family Campground. Site 26 - 34 (dog friendly area) 26 is closest to the bathroom. I'd like the main site to be one of these sites, so Anthony and could have our dogs there. Here is the map:

I also think it would be cool if the main camp site was pet friendly. Especially if they check up and enforce stuff.
I just checked, someone already has site 27 reserved for that weekend.
I'm cool with whichever camping area. I personally like the primitive camping areas where nothing is laid out and you can have as many people as you want in an area and build your fire where ever, but I also understand probably not alot of people are cool with outhouses for jons.
-
i HAVE SITE 27 byeby.,
-
Yeah I'm with Jack! #@rofl3 on 27!

What are all those Sheep doing in the Campground? #@rofl3
.
-
Protecting the campers of course!
-
Glad I wasnt the only one who saw sheep. clap2-*
-
We got sheep fold #26!
-
Doubt that I can make the Trip to this event. It's just too Far away...
Also after looking at and counting all of those sheep in the campground It's making me too sleepy to drive that far. :confused04:;

-
LoL you better make an appearance! At least for the pot lock!

Where?

He means for tubing!
-

Tubing where?
In Atsion Lake?
-
Kidding!
-
Ya know, this post is confusing enough without bringing up another event in the same post :confused04:;
-
Not another event Jack, just an activity during the campout. Water might be kind of cold, but I think my tube has a seat (forget if it's made of mesh..?..).
Is anyone bringing a bike? I know Atsion isn't as big, but we could bike to the other side by the lake.
-
Are the bicycle trails paved?
I might bring my bike if they are.
I think you're right about the water being too cold for tubing, but if others are bringing their's I'll give it a whirl. It's easier to bring our tubes than our bikes at the moment.
We also have a canoe too if that interests anyone.
-
I have a wheel barrow or two of free fire wood if anyone needs any.
-
Thanks, I'll pick it up **^bana0
-
Thanks Jack!
-
We are bringing bikes
-
Does anyone know if the bike paths are paved?
-
Not sure if I'm Bringing a bike, matts bike is busted and well have the kids.
-
Dirt roads in campground. No official bike paths. Road to lake is Atsion Rd and 206, so yeah, paved.
We can bring canoe so yeah, bring ur tubes if u want.
Jack will have a huge fire waiting for us when we come back!!
-
So here is the plan for the Easter egg hunt. (Thanks to Tyler) if each site can bring a dozen hard boiled eggs plus the dying kits we should have plenty of eggs for the kids to find. Also bring one (or more) plastic egg with a prize inside.
-

NOT
-
Just booked 33!
-
Love this online reservations thing they got going now why have i never used this before.
-
Just booked 33!
nice im going back to the sight to see how close you are im on 35
-
Greg-
If we all bring a dozen boiled eggs, that's a ton of eggs to color, and eat, no? Each person might color 2-3. Am I wrong??
How many kids we having? (I know Max bringing 7 is a variable)
I thought we would be hiding the cheap unedible plastic eggs for the kids to find with candy in them. I can bring a dozen plastic eggs.
-
Didn't you see the group text from Tyler! LoL. Buying all that candy is expensive. Plus we can all take some home. I'm not expecting everybody to bring eggs. I'd rather have more than less.
-
Must have missed it in the 95 texts! LOL
Guess everyone will bring what they can. It's all about the camping anyway.
Don't forget firewood!
-
You may color a couple eggs I may color a couple eggs seven kids could be entertains for hours. Then we can hide them on every site and let them run around looking for them keeping them entertained. As for the hiding it's not summer heat and they won't be sitting in the ground that long and much like M&Ms the tasty goodness is protected by a thin shell so if it gets a little dirty we simply break it of or run it under water and we are good. As I told Greg not sure why the second it hits the ground it's thought of and ruined and not when you dip it in paint, cover it in glitter, or when it comes out of a chickens naught bits. Any my logic aside I'll grab the eggs and kit for our site Michelle if you and celly want to put together our mega winner prize egg since you have the plastic eggs that would be cool text me and let me know.
-
What time is everyone getting there tomorrow? I'll be there hopefully by noon.
-
Sounds like a plan Tyler!
We'll be there after work. I'll try to get out an hour or two early, but we'll see.

If you're looking for good wings go to Pick a Lilli...
http://www.picalilli.com/mobile/ not like I'm hinting to bring wings or anything...
-
Sorry, won't be going, someone can have my site 27 will miss you guys :confused04:;
-
Oh no.... Everything ok?
-
Dang Jack, sorry to hear that. And I got a peach & blueberry ricotta pie just for you. Well, for everyone, but I know you love desserts!! \pie.gif"
We'll miss you!! bawlin)0
Greg- when you check in can you get Jack's site paper too? Then if anyone shows up or we have extra cars, we can park there.
-
Because that isn't suspicious.
-
I'm not doing it lol. That is forgery, if you want the site you can grab the registration stuff.
-
So I'm just wondering what the definition of a "kid " is? Those eggs can make a great Western omelette
-
They are hardboiled muggy.
