Driving from Ohio to Niagara was pretty easy, we continued on the I-90 east for another 284 miles, it takes roughly 5 hours so it was early afternoon when we pulled into the camp ground. Stayed at Branches of Niagara which is on Grand island in the middle of the Niagara river, it’s a pretty big island so you don’t get the sense of it being an island except for all the bridges every time you go on and off. The campground was one of the best so far. A large selection of outdoor activities for kids and families, Cullen and Anneka liked the outdoor laser tag the best, thye also had swimming pools, lake for kayaking and fishing, rental bikes, outdoor movie nights on the weekends. Very well run and organized and the folks who work there were helpful.
Niagara falls was spectacular, I think we were more impressed by the size of the river and how fast it flows, the Niagara river drains Lake Erie into Lake Ontario so it’s a really big river.
Niagara Falls is the collective name for three waterfalls that straddle the international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the American state of New York. From largest to smallest, the three waterfalls are the Horseshoe Falls, the American Falls and the Bridal Veil Falls. The Horseshoe Falls lies on the border of the United States and Canada[1] with the American Falls entirely on the United States' side, separated by Goat Island. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls are also on the United States' side, separated from the American Falls by Luna Island.
