Jellystone Park



Today, some friends and I took our kids to Yogi Bear's Jellystone park which is a campground park on Pelahatchie Lake. It's about 15 minutes from my house and they open their facilities to noncampers as well. It's a nice campground area with a splashground (it's actually a large playground with geysers & slides in a small pool), a zero entry pool, a beach area & lake, paddle-boats, put-put golf, tennis courts, and a gameroom. Not only is this place clean and SUPER kid friendly, but it's also "pocket-book" friendly as well. It's $6 per person (on weekdays, $9 on weekends) and that covers everything!! They have a hay ride through the campground and supply you with water guns to shoot at the campers as they pass by....of course my kids thought that was great! Oh, yeah you can also bring a cooler with your own drinks, lunches, & snacks (once again, pocketbook friendly)! If you live in the area, I highly recommend you try it out.....it's definitely the best kept secret around!!! My kids had a blast.....Brady put it best, "tons and tons of water fun!" Needless to say, they were worn out when we left. No kidding, Hudson & Ella were asleep before we pulled out of the parking lot. I was able to get a picture of Ella in her bed once I transitioned her from the car to her crib.....she never budged! Here's some pics from our day!
