Getting Outdoor

It’s hard to have a memorable vacation without some fishing. Since Lake Ariel and the surrounding lakes are common fishing spots, it’s no surprise seeing anglers lining along the shores as they try out their luck. Perch, walleye, and bass are some of the more common fish to catch in the lake. The lake also harbors largemouth bass and pickerel. Don’t fret if you didn’t pack fishing gear in your rental RV as the visitors’ center has tons up for rental. Keep in mind that there is a catch and release policy in place.

Our trip went super smooth, pickup and drop-off were both easy from the campground. The camper was exactly as described, everything worked well, and we'd rent from Tina again.
