Well, our wonderful Connecticut state gov has decided to close some state parks for camping to save money for 2017. Most all of them are small, non-hookup parks. Just double check if you are planning any camping trips in Connecticut.
Our favorite, Macedonia Brook, is closed.
Non-definitive list of closed-to-camping state parks:
Macedonia Brook
Devil's Hopyard
Salt Rock Campground
Pachuag State Forest - Greenfalls camping area closed
Thanks for the head's up! We decided our kiddos' trip would be in NYS this year but the peoples still want to spend some time in familiar surroundings AKA Hammo.
Devil's Hopyard was closed last year too:(.
Didn't know there was a camping ground in Pachauq but love walking there. Saw a pheasant family crossing a trail in Pachauq and was peeved I dinna get my camera out in time...think I was too amazed, LOL.
Now to run over to reserveamerica and see what's left.
