Summer is the best time for family togetherness, whether it involves getting out to the park and swimming pool or making crafts at home. Before the summer ends, are you wanting to get the family out for a good old-fashioned camping trip? For a camping experience that’s filled with fun for everyone, head up to Northwestern Connecticut and visit Lone Oak Campsites.
Lone Oak Campsites is a 250-acre park located at the base of Mount Canaan in the Berkshire Foothills. For 57 years, Lone Oak has been the camping destination for families from all over.
