improving the playground and
campground area. When asked about
the campground, John was quick to
say, “You know, people like just a few
things. They like the water (the river
and our pond), they like shade and
grass and they like a restroom facility
(other than portable restrooms). We
have a bathhouse facility that has a
restrooms and showers in it. So, those
things seem to make most people
happy.”
There are seventy campsites, along
a quarter-mile stretch of the Pigeon
River, available to rent on the Trading
Post grounds. In addition to canoeing
and kayaking, volleyball, horseshoe
pitching and cornhole are activities
available for the campers’ enjoyment.
The smaller children may enjoy the
campgrounds playground, offering
swings, slides and climbing equipment.
“Outdoor things that don’t require
power, they just require your personal
energy,” stated Jesslyn. The adjective used by the Senecals to describe
their campground is “rustic.” There is
no pool or mini golf course, some of
the amenities offered at other campgrounds, but as Jesslyn said, “We have
modern facilities, electric hook-ups,
showers, things like that, but it (the
“rustic-ness”) just seems to fit well, in
the natural habitat area that we are in.”
A major part of the Trading Post
business is the renting of canoes and
kayaks for customers to paddle down
