Brialee Campground

This post finds us at Brialee Campground in Ashford, Ct. with our Fold and Go camping club friends.  Brialee is a beautiful, well run campground. If you get here before June the rates are extremely low.  In season the rates are higher but not out-of-line for the amenities and the amount of activities they run on weekends.  The campground has a full day of activities planned.  On our weekend the schedule started at eight in the morning when the snack bar serves breakfast.  Activities started at ten with ceramics and ran the whole day, concluding with a band from 7:30 p.m. until 10:30.  It starts all over again on Sunday right up until checkout time.

We like Brialee because it has a pond with a pet beach.  We bring the ‘grandpuppy’ and he loves to be in the water.  My wife, Lori, is found of waterfalls and Brialee is close to Diana’s Pool in Chaplin, Ct. 

Diana’s is on the Natchaug River and has a series of small falls and cascades.  In season you can always seem to find kayakers working the river.  It is a beautiful place for a short hike and some very good picture taking.
