Customer Reviews

A great resource, needs updating

With the economy in a recession, good ideas for an affordable family vacation are especially welcome. This book has many great suggestions, but, like many travel guides, is outdated as to places and prices. What may have been affordable in 1997 (e.g. Queen Victoria in Cape May, N.J.) would now cost many times what the book says.

AWESOME!

Absolutely loved it! Very informative. Plenty of interesting places to try with my family, with varying amenities and prices for everyone. Glad to have stumbled across this.

Lots of great ideas for family vacations

I really enjoyed reading the book The Best Bargain Family Vacations in the USA. At the advice of this book, my family and I just went to Family Camp at the Centerville Mills YMCA Camp in Bainbridge Township, Ohio, over Memorial Day weekend 1999. We arrived at 10 a.m. Saturday and left at noon Monday. The $75 per person fee included six meals, two nights lodging in a dorm style lodge room, a lot of horseback riding on lovely trails (they have over 150 acres of land), canoeing in the little lake, making tie dyed t shirts, archery, a hay ride, a campfire with s'mores, a night hike, other nature hikes, and swimming in the pool. My son loved shooting bb guns and fishing - the little lake is stocked with bluegills. My daughter loved the Rodeo Games, and, of course, the trail rides. I am looking forward to trying some of the other "Best Bargain Family Vacations in the U.S.A." - this first one we tried was a real winner. Great book!
