You will be parking at the back part of the driveway, which is next to a wooded area, but is also next to our home. We have a little over 3 acres, so you are welcome to walk through the trees if you wish. We are very near (less than a mile) to a PA State Game Lands Area so there's plenty of wooded areas and wildlife around. The road in front of the house is paved but turns to dirt when you get to the game lands. We are also just 2 miles from Lake Erie with a very nice park with a beach area about 3 miles from the house. I do want to mention that there are railroad tracks near by, so you will hear the train occasionally. ***Please note that under amenities I have listed that 30 amp service is available, but if you have your own cord we do have 50 amp available as well. Suggested Local Attractions: Raccoon Park (the park with a beach 3 miles from us), Presque Isle State Park in Erie, Pymatuning State Park in Linesville, Conneaut Historical Railroad Museum in Conneaut OH, North Coast WWII Museum in Conneaut OH, various breweries and wineries, various covered bridges, fishing charters and of course Lake Erie.

We're laid back retirees enjoying the journey Details: We live in Central Florida in the winter and Northwest Pennsylvania in the summer. We take about 3 to 4 weeks traveling each way and try to take a different route every time. We enjoy visiting and being involved in military veteran's events and activities (Dave is USMC Vietnam veteran). We love experiencing new places as long as the weather is warm. LOL! Non smokers...no pets. Home Town: St Cloud FL in the winter (Nov - May) and West Springfield PA in the summer (June - Oct).

We had a great stay with Sharon and Dave. Nice ands quiet. We had a very special encounter with Tim and Chrissie. Son and daughter-in-law from Dave. Chrissie told us the story of her grandfather and WW11. She has been to the Netherlands because of the monument in Goes and the ceremony. We have made her a promise that we will visit the monument and will send her a video. Thanks for sharing this with us. Thanks Sharon and Dave 🤗🤗Marjo and Hans from the Netherlands

Sharon and Dave were wonderful host. Nice and quiet stop over. right off I-90. Plenty of room. Had access to 30 amp, sewer and water if needed. Backing into the driveway was a challenge but no problems, take your time. We sat on their porch talking for hours. We had a had a wonderful visit. Thank you for being such a great host.

We so enjoyed our stay! Sharon and Dave provided us a beautiful space for our camper and truck, hook ups as needed. Sharon is a great source of local info, where to go and what to see. We really enjoyed our visit and feel like we made new friends. Thank you for hosting us!
