Do you remember playing the vintage video game Oregon Trail for hours at a time, trying to guide your wagon train across the most treacherous mountain passes and open plains in the country? Well, now you can bring your family to relive your pioneer dreams… except in New Jersey, far from any trails, and without any hardship. Spend a night camping in a Conestoga Wagon and you’ll have a blast recreating the past!
