We were taking our time packing up this morning when the neighbor stopped by. Seems these folks are very familiar with Lowville and the surrounding area. They have a camp up Stillwater way! Small world!
The drive to Jordan Lake State Recreation Area and Poplar Point campground was short (180 miles) and uneventful, just the way we want it. We arrived at the campground at 1410 and were told we could not enter until 1500. The person at the gate was not very nice about it either. So we went to a nearby gas station and waited until 1500. We figured since they are enforcing the check in time (which most CGs do not if the site is empty) the site should be nice and clean. We were wrong. The site was full of leaves and trash. The fire pit was full of ashes and trash. The picnic table had food scraps on it. So along with setting up camp we had to clean and blow the site too. We were a little POed! Here's a couple of pics of Site F004 at poplar Point State Park.
Although there is an incline to get into the site the site is actually quite level.
The CG is full and BTW we will not be camping here again! I'll leave a "nice" review after we leave on the park website and "Campground Reviews".
