Robert Moses State Park a great getaway
Monday, July 18, 2011 - 3:57 pm
For all those who can't get away for a vacation this year, why not try a staycation right in your own county. Robert Moses State Park in Massena is a great spot for a family to camp and the beach there is great...Lots of sand, it's just like going to the ocean. I just spent the weekend there and there were lots of camping spots available, the bathroom, shower areas were kept clean and the weather was very cooperative. If you've never been to the beach there you should really take a trip to the Robert Moses State Park. It's the route right across from the St. Lawrence Centre Mall.
