BROWARD COUNTY, FL - Sometimes
you don't need to go physically far
away to experience a getaway - maybe you just need a little change of
environment to make you feel like
you're on vacation. A Summerscape Family
Camping Weekend at Quiet Waters Park (401 S Powerline Rd., Deerfield
Beach 33442; 954-357-5100) may be just the ticket.
There will be such a weekend August 12th through 14th, starting
with check-in at 3PM on Friday and ending two days later, with checkout at 1PM
on Sunday. In between, you'll experience such activities as Saturday-morning
water sports, a family barbecue that afternoon, and a movie in the evening.
Campers are on their own for dinner both nights.
The campground occupies a slender, lightly wooded peninsula
jutting out into one of the park's lakes. You don't even have to bring your own
tent - each campsite features a sturdy 10-by-10-foot tent fully set up on a
concrete platform. Sites also include fire rings, barbecue grills, picnic tables,
water and electricity, and access to showers/restrooms.
Preregistration and prepayment are required. The fees are $100
per campsite for up to four campers, and $10 per additional camper, up to two.
One adult camper age 18 or up must be included at each campsite. A refundable
$50 security deposit is required at time of check-in (debit or credit card
only). Each registered camper will receive one Splash Adventure water park
admission.
