If you can get along with electricity and running water, the national forests use to be great, its been many years and I don't know how they are now, but each campsite was about 300 feet from the next and cut out in the forest..My youngest was in a playpen (not walking yet) and she did pick up a tick....but not a carrier of any disease. I was afraid because I had heard about Rocky Mountain spotted fever from tick bites..

With 5 kids, camping was the only way we could afford a vacation, but we all loved it.....

I love it too. We used the trailer as a summer vacation house. It was on a pond & very quiet & reasonable at first. Then the owner just let druggies & drunks take over. We couldn't have afforded it anyway since he raised the rent to five grand & with gas prices & little work it was impossible.The drinking & fighting was another reason to leave.

Now I need a truck so we can pull it. We had an older Fleetwood that we used for a few years but with Sassy getting older we wanted more room. Plus the fact that once you park it you are stuck there unless you tow a car was a hassle. I like to camp & hope to be able to next summer.
