Lake State Park, Fayette, OH
Harrison
Lake State Park has 203 campsites with north and south sections separated by a
lake. The north section is the main
campground where there is a ranger station for registration, a dump station and
bath houses.
Although we
arrived on a Monday, a full week prior to Labor Day, all sites in the north
campground were reserved through the holiday.
We took one of the three walk in sites available on the south side.
After
filling up with water we made our way around the lake to site 237 located
across from the vault toilets.
There was
only one other camper in our section. By
Friday there was not one spot available.
To take
showers we had a choice of driving over to the north campground or walk/bike
around the pedestrian trail around the lake.
Monte
tackled a project he has been dreading doing-he serviced the topper on our big
slide. We had been having issues with
the slide for a long time. The tape
along the seam was bunched up.
After
removing the slide, Monte spent the next two days scraping off the residue left
by the tape. He washed the roof of the
slide, applied new tape and re-installed the slide.
