Looking for something to do this summer with the family? Have you been to Lake Compounce in Bristol, CT yet? My husband and I first went when we moved to CT back in 2007 (that was before children) and had a blast. And, this June for our oldest daughter, Savannah's 7th birthday, we will be surprising her with an overnight staycation birthday trip to Bristol, CT to take in all the fun rides and water park at Lake Compounce. She loves amusement rides and water, so we know she will have a blast here, as will our other daughter, Bella.

And, with so many recent additions at the oldest amusement park in the country, Lake Compounce had tripled the fun this season by adding the first Pink’s Hollywood Hot Dogs on the East Coast, Bear Creek Campground with charming cabins and traditional tipis and Lake Compounce has also made the advantageous changes of offering two new season pass options and increasing the number of cabanas in Crocodile Cove Water Park.

We plan to stay in one of the 2 bedroom cabins so that we can get two full days in at the park. Even though we are a little over an hour away, with little ones, it is a full day affair going out with them. And, my thought is that we can go back after a long afternoon and rest up before taking in on-site activities including movie night and crafts at the Bear Creek Campground (Reserve your overnight (or longer) online at www.campbearcreek.com), before waiting early to hit the park one last time before heading home. While I know the girls will be excited...shh, I haven't told them yet, I am finding myself getting excited too, as I plan our mini birthday staycation for Savannah in June. :-)
