Ohio, Conneaut - Monday, July 6, 2015 - Evergreen Lake Park


Tonight we are in site #5 at Evergreen Lake Park.  We were going to just stay at another facility on the turnpike again tonight but we found this Passport America park right in the area where we wanted to stop for the night.
 
 
It’s probably a good thing we opted for the campground because we ended up having to call out a repair service.  Greg noticed a leak as he was hooking things up.  It ended up being a leak on the hydraulic block that runs the fan to cool the motor.  It’s fixed now.  Seems some kind of plug had vibrated out - thanks rough roads in New York.  Would highly recommend A&A Road Rescue, LLC out of Kingsville, OH if you are in need of repair service in this area.  Don’t know if they have more than one person who does repairs, Scott came to see us and he seemed very knowledgeable. 

We passed a lot of vineyards on the way here.
 
 
Evergreen Lake Park has over 200 sites but most of them are seasonal sites.  Only 30 or so are for weekend/overnight stays.  The town is right on Lake Erie, this might be a good area to revisit when we have more time.


Sitting in the swings at the lakeside gazebo could be a nice way to spend a few hours.


The lake was pretty quiet this evening.  Several residents have paddleboats on the lake.  Lots of people here have good sized boats, I’m guessing for use on Lake Erie.

  1. We were in that area a week ago and considered that park, but ended up staying in the next town (Geneva), also a decent place. We grew very weary of the NY Turnpike and the sections that were as bad as any we have been on. Did not like the tolls either :-). We ended up exiting on 271, then taking 30 across to Fort Wayne. 30 was like an interstate except that it was free and the road was in better shape.

  2. Tolls are easier to handle since we got an EZ Pass transponder, but they aren't any cheaper.
