My friends and I had a wonderful time for our long weekend stay. Ellen was incredibly flexible especially since my originally predicted large group of 12 had dwindled down to 6 and some had different check-in and check-out days. I have already told my friend group that we will be returning next year to explore more of the Water Gap trails.

Our campsites were in the previously hike-in sections and were great sizes. The mountain is made up of what looked like shale so bring a mattress pad and hammer for your tent stakes. We had very little mosquitoes when we were visiting, which was a pleasant surprise. If you have a car that is very low to the ground I would let Ellen know. The road up the small hill to the newer sites had some pot holes, but with the runoff from the rain it would be futile for them to be constantly grading the roads.

Staff were extremely friendly and the campground was well kept.

The showers do need a make over, but bathrooms are expensive to update so we couldn't really complain. I, myself, am just always glad to have running water and working toilets and showers available.

My suggestion would be to add a wall box to each shower so that guests can store their belongings up off the floor. The floors in the showers can puddle quickly so a shower squeegee with a long pole placed in each one may be a cheap and easily purchased help. This way guests can move the water to the drain. Also, I wonder if different shower heads could be installed that spray the water directly downwards onto the floor instead of out into the back of the shower like they do now. That may help to keep the water more towards the drain side.

Overall, we had a great time and experience.
