Our plans to try and connect with friends at Lexington Horse Park just didn’t come together. For one there was a large event (The Rolex Kentucky Three Day Event) going on in the park consequently, the campground was full. Also, it was between campgrounds in which we were going to stop for the night. Therefore it would have meant we had one very short days drive and one very, very long days drive. As we left Renfro Valley we thought maybe we will surprise them and just show up. Well, it was our surprise when we got 2 miles from the exit and traffic was backed up waiting to get into the horse park to see the day’s events. Sorry Nancy and Betsy maybe next time. We honked as we went by. Did you hear us!!!!
We have made Cross Creek Campground one of our planned stops for many years. The first year we stopped we met our good friends Don and Sandy here and the rest is history. The campground is about 6 miles off I-71 in Delaware which is just north of Columbus, Ohio.
The entrance road to the campground is paved with rumble strips so slow going is the name of the game. All interior roads and sites are gravel with grass between them. Most sites have 30/50 amp service with water and sewer. When we connected to the power source there was no 50 amp service. So having a 75 foot power cord comes in handy, I just connected to another site. I called to let them know, someone was there to fix it in no time. There’s no cable TV at this park but we were able to get at least 20 over-the-air stations maybe more. Wi-fi is available for free throughout the park but we could not get on. The park staff is very friendly as are the permanents. We have found this consistently with each visit that's why we keep coming back.
The whole days drive and even setting up was done in the pouring rain. Yes, I am still in my shorts and t-shirts and loving this cool weather (48 degrees). Tonight it’s suppose to go down into the 30’s. Halleluiah!
