The mild winter we have been having in Utah has given me a serious case of spring fever! I have been itching to go camping so Marilyn and I planned this little weekend getaway to our favorite KOA in Fillmore (ironically we had the biggest snowstorm of the year last week).
We left in the afternoon on Friday but we hit some massive traffic on the way out of town so we didn't arrive until late in the evening (Fillmore is about 150 miles south of SLC). The wonderful people who run this KOA know us personally because we camp here so often! They told us they were getting worried about us! They asked us why we weren't in the motor home, if our parents were with us, and if we brought the dogs! I guess we do camp here a lot!
We love staying in the KOA cabins! They are so comfortable with heating, air conditioning, and mini refrigerators. They have nice beds (you bring your own linens or sleeping bags), a desk, and some chairs. They don't have their own bathroom but there is a communal one nearby with really nice showers. Friday night felt like a sleepover because we watched movies and ate treats all night!
Some views of our cute cabin. I especially love the porch because it is really relaxing to sit out there and read. The weather was a little bit chilly but I still sat out there for quite some time!
Saturday was absolutely perfect because we literally did nothing but relax! We read and sat around the firepit for most of the day. Sunday was basically a repeat of Saturday. There was nothing that I had to do and that felt so good (especially after a few stressful weeks at school). Camping (even in a cabin) definitely recharges my batteries and I hope I get to do a lot more of it this spring and summer!
