Last weekend we took our family camping for the first time to El Moro Campground. Yes, I spent two nights in a tent with the family and I have to say, it was REALLY fun. I am not really a camper type, so I was a little nervous, but with this campground you can test out a camping experience while staying close to home. My kids had so much fun it was worth it.
