Freedom!

{Written early Wednesday…}

We made it! Getting everyone’s stuff, plus a ton of food, plus six bodies, into the SUV was tough, but we managed. We left later than we had intended, but the traffic ebbed while we were eating at In-n-Out and there was still plenty of daylight to explore once we arrived.

This place is great. There are tons of families here. It’s a super low key vibe. The kids can bike around by themselves. There is a playground with a little climbing wall. A pool. A jump pillow. Some little activities like mining for gems and tie die. There is a petting zoo too!

I’m giving the kids a lot of freedom. We have a set of walkie talkies with big enough ranges to work within the grounds. Right now three of the girls are biking around. My kids are still in the pool (my daughter wanted to keep swimming, which thrilled my son). Everything is outside so the kids don’t have to wear masks. It’s awesome.

The cabin is really cute. It’s the perfect size. There is a queen bed set up, a loft above that and a small room with bunk beds. There is a full bathroom and a kitchenette with a full fridge, microwave, and gas cook top. There is a little flat screen on the wall with basic cable and a couch. It’s great.

All told this will probably cost each of the four families about $1K. It’s a great deal for 10 nights / 11 days (including an afternoon on Clear Lake). I’m so glad we made this happen.

  1. This sounds really fun. I think you lucked out getting the first shift. Packing and loading the car after ten days is going to be hard and the kids will be less motivated to help since it will be sad rather than exciting.

    I love that all CA road trips involve a stop at In N Out.
