I grew up camping at Shenango campground.
The lot we had was wonderful
The time we had was very relaxing and our friends came up and some family and we shared all the stories of our growing up and camping here.
Will definitely be back and hopefully not so long of a time in between trips. It was 10 years ago we tented in Duck Lake.
We have a camper now so no worries about the weather!!
